Apple Address Book

Address Book is a personal contact management application made by Apple Inc. that runs on the Mac OS X operating system. Since version 10.6 Snow Leopard, it supports synchronization through CardDAV protocol.

To add a new CardDAV account (when using IceWarp Server), do the following:

  1. In the main menu, select the Address Book – Preferences – Accounts items.
  2. In the Accounts dialog, click the "+" (plus) button.
  3. In the next dialog – Account type field, select the CardDAV item.

    As User name, use your email address BUT REPLACE the "@" (at) character with "$" (dollar).

    E. g. your email address is john.doe@icewarpdemo.com so into the User name field, insert john.doe$icewarpdemo.com. Into the Server address field, insert your domain.

  4. Click Create button.

NOTE: SRV records must be properly configured, please refer to DNS SRV Records Configuration section of the previous WebDAV chapter. For testing before you create them, it is possible to specify the hostname and ports manually in the Server field, e. g. mail.icewarpdemo.com:443.
