How do I assign recently imported categories to an Address Book contact?
Reassigning a category to a contact can be done on the device, but it’s more efficient through the Address Book
on the Desktop Interface. Sign in to the Desktop Interface by following the directions in
Signing In To the
Desktop Interface
on page 170. Then follow these instructions:
1
From the Jump page, click Address Book to open your Browse Contacts page.
2
From the Browse Contacts page, click the contact's name. The contact's information displays.
3
Click
Edit
at the top or bottom of the page. The contact's Summary information page is displayed in an
editable form.
4
Locate the
File in Category
drop-down menu and select the category you want assigned.
5
Click
Save
when you've made all your changes, or click
Cancel
to discard your changes and return to your
last Browse Contacts view.
Can I automatically phone or email a contact from my Address Book?
Yes. Read about this in
Contact a Contact
on page 130.
Can I initiate an AOL Instant Messenger conversation with a contact directly from my
Address Book?
No. Instant Messenger conversations must be initiated from the main AOL Instant Messenger Buddy List screen.
Is there a specific format I need to follow when typing phone numbers?
Your device will automatically hyphenate phone numbers as you enter them, so there is no need use
parentheses or hyphens. For example, for a local number, just enter 1234567 and your device will display it as
123-4567. For a out-of-area number, enter 1234567890 and the device will display it as 123-456-7890.
How do I print my list of contacts?
You can print a list of contacts or individual contact information from the Desktop Interface using your Web
browser print function. There is no way to print from your device.
