Problem CardDav Mac Addessbook

Post by dibo69 »

Hi,
I've just installed the latest Zimbra-Realease, everything works fine. iCal is working fine on Mac an iPhone, Carddav is only working on Iphone.
When I try to set up the carddav-Account on mac Snow Leopard, I get an error-message: "Address Book couldn't discover the account settings for the CardDAV..."
Do you have an advice how to solve this problem?
Thanks,

Dirk

I can confirm that it is not working. If you save the CardDAV account in Addressbook.app anyway and open the corresponding Addressbook plist (~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/Sources/70040504-C596-401D-9F8F-42C0416CBF47/Configuration.plist), you'll discover that the settings you made have not been stored.
I tried editing the plist, yielding zero result.

Good luck and if you figure it out, please report here...

Hi,
after installing MAC OS X Lion it works perfect. It seemed to be a "MAC-Problem" :)
