Linux Mint 17.3 XFCE, Evolution 3.10.4 Comment #7 above points to a workaround that actually works. SyncEvolution. I am syncing my local address book in Evolution using syncevolution mentioned in post #7 above. I followed the instructions given on the page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SyncEvolution/synchronize-google-contacts-with-evolution-addressbooks to set up syncevolution. There they mention a file, /usr/share/accounts/services/google-contacts.service that needs to be edited before syncevolution can be set up. I discovered that this file doesn't exist on my system!

What it does is syncing the Evolution address book under "On This Computer" and not the "@gmail.com" Contacts.

This bug affects me as well. This is that 0Auth password sign in thing that Google said they would no longer support from May 5th going onwards. I've know that in the past new releases of Evolution are normally not included unless you upgrade to a newer distribution (of your distro) or unless you find a package maintainer that has a newer version of Evolution, or unless you install the files yourself. (all in my experience) You're supposed to be allowed to authorize less secure devices ('ll put the procedure below) but I've got that enabled and it has no effect on Evolution, so I'm thinking that this has more to do with the change that Google has done to their contacts, perhaps it's a new location, link, or connection method.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1459235] Re: Google Address book: Unable to open address book
Just to summarize: The problem is: Evolution currently (even the git master development version) doesn't support OAuth authentications directly, only through GOA. mmalmeida in comment #1 and comment #11 already pointed out how to solve this problem: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749974#c4 Yes it is a workaround but AFAIK, and also in the opinion of evo developers, there are no drawbacks in setting up GOA directly. So, set up a Google Online Account on your system, and all should work fine -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1459235 Title: Google Address book: Unable to open address book Status in evolution package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Since today (2015-05-27) I've been getting this message when trying to open my Google address book: Unable to open address book This address book cannot be opened.

A temporary PITA workaround is to either use your 'Personal' contact list/address book or create a temporary contact list/address book. 1 - log into contacts.google.com, go to old contacts 2 - export your google contacts to a .vcf file 3 - Open Evolution, import that vcf file inot the 'Personal' or temporary contact list 4 - In Evolution, Edit - Preferences - contacts and change the autocompletion to be from the 'Personal' or temporary contact list/address book Then, manually repeat/resync as often as needed. Don't the maintainers of Evolution use the product? bugs like this are unacceptable since google announced the deprecation of the non OAuth authentication nearly 3 years ago. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1459235 Title: Google Address book: Unable to open address book Status in evolution package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Since today (2015-05-27) I've been getting this message when trying to open my Google address book: Unable to open address book This address book cannot be opened.
