Description of problem: Contacts save to the addressbook are not usable when composing a new mail. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-2.6.0-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add new contact with 'Add to Address Book' 2. Create new mail 3. Try to select contact from Personal Address Book Actual results: No contacts are shown Expected results: Able to select from added contacts Additional info: The added contacts are there somewhere but are not selectable in any way.
Doing an empty search (pressing return in the search bar in the contacts window) shows the hidden entries, and only entries with an assigned category can be selected sending a new mail. Hope this helps. P.S.: I'm sorry, my english is alpha version.
OK, after a freshly started machine a can now select names from the addressbook. Perhaps evolution-data-server needed restarting? BTW is there a way to access the addressbook? Currently there are no menu options to make the address book appear.
(In reply to comment #2) > BTW is there a way to access the addressbook? Currently there are no menu > options to make the address book appear. View->Window->Contacts or use View->Switcher to make the sub-application switch buttons visible.
Thanks! All my problems are now solved. Bug can be closed.
