Address Book Library
By default, Bento displays contact information and groups from the Mac OS X Address
Book application. When you make changes to records in the Bento Address Book
library, you are actually updating the records in the Address Book application.
You can use the Bento Address Book library to edit data from any application or
device that synchronizes with the Address Book application.
By displaying the Bento Address Book library, you add your contacts to Bento and
keep your contacts up-to-date, whether you edit the information in the Address Book
application or in Bento.
1 If you add a record in the Address Book library, then it is added to the Address Book
application.
1 If you delete a record in the Address Book library, then it is deleted from the
Address Book application.
1 For every group that you create in the Address Book application, Bento creates an
Address Book library collection.
1 For every collection you create in the Address Book library, the Address Book
application creates an Address Book group.
