Here is the real Address Book Bug
Authored by: settlagemj on Dec 29, '05 02:03:23PM

I'm using 10.4.3 and addressbook is 4.0.3 (483). I don't have the spouse field available to add under add field or edit template. Which version has a spouse field or do I have some issue with the addressbook preferences?

Thanks!

Hi,

I'm using 3.x of Address Book. Highlight an Address Book entry. Then click Card->Add Field->Related Names. Now in your Address Book entry, change Friend to spouse (or any other label).

Hope this helps (in getting the spouse field),

Rycardo

To avoid issues where you may have changed the default template without realizing it, follow these steps in Address Book Version 4.0.3 (483) to get the spouse field:
  1. Open up address book
  2. Add a new entry
  3. Select "spouse" from the popup menu that by default should say "friend"
These steps work for me, and I am pretty sure I did not change the templates.

Sorry, I meant to add that you should perform these steps on a brand new user's address book. That way you are sure that the default template has not been changed.
