KAddressBook(通訊錄)

新生的KAddressBook 讓所有的程式都能訪問你的數據。 |
介紹
KAddressBook 是個開發中的程序。這並不意味著它不夠穩定,意思是它還沒有完成。這個版本你看到的佈局與老版本相比有很大的區別,很有可能下個版本再次做變動,如同我們看到更多新特性再次增加的。
新建地址薄(AddressBook)
自動遷移(Automatic Migration)
如果你之前有用過KAddressBook 可能知道它是存儲在~/.kde/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf。當你裝好KDE SC 4.4,自動遷移工具便會檢查該文件,用它包含的數據建立一個Akonadi 資源。但是,你可能發現還有許多其他東西需要檢查。因為這個是完全的新技術,發行版有可能沒搞定所有的東西。
初始化要求(Initial Requirements)
Nepomuk 要求一定運行。打開「系統設置」 > 「高級」 > 「桌面搜索」,啟用Nepomuk。 Strigi 對硬件的資源負荷很大,可以關掉,這是可選的。關掉後,索引功能的缺少肯定會削弱Nepomuk 的功能。 MySQL 要求一定運行。這東西在某些發行版上一直是個問題。如果你有疑問,閱讀這個故障解決頁面。
啟用資源(Enabling Resources)
你的發行版有可能已經把這部分搞定了,但最好檢查下「系統設置」 > 「高級」 > 「KDE 資源」。確保那列出的資源已經啟用,然後用'akonadi-resource Personal'上的'設為標準資源'按鈕。這便可讓KMail 能夠訪問個人聯繫人地址薄(Personal Contacts addressbook)。
Explore a little further, with the Manage Addressbook Sources button, and you will see that you can examine the settings for your resources:
The resources on your system may not match the list you see in this image - that is of no consequence. Personal Contacts is the one of importance for working with KAddressBook and KMail.
In KDE SC 4.5 the path is slightly different although the process is the same. SystemSettings has been redesigned, so KDE resources is now found under Personal Information.
Status of this release
Distribution Lists - the migration tool for your existing distribution lists is not yet released. It is work-in-progress. Where appropriate you can create a new Group - Groups will replace Distribution Lists. Autocompletion makes it quite easy to add entries to the group. In KDE SC <= 4.4.2 you can't use the group quite like a distribution list, typing the name and expecting it to be expanded into a list of names. You can, though, copy and paste the list of names from the right-hand panel. This is not final functionality, but it is a work-around that is possible in some situations. Update - for KDE SC 4.4.3 the alias expansion for Contact Groups from KAddressbook has been backported. Contact Groups still may not be selected in the recipients picker, though.
Invisible fields - some users have been worried because they knew that information was in fields not currently visible. If you check any record in ~/.local/share/contacts/ you will see that the data is not lost. We can expect to see the data becoming visible again in the coming version releases.
Backing up your Data
The page Akonadi_and_AddressBook helps you understand the structure of KAddressBook, so that you can be sure that you have backed up all that you need.
Troubleshooting
A number of common 'teething problems' have been reported in versions shipped with KDE SC 4.4. Many of them disappeared with the advent of 4.4.1, but if you still get error messages, Akonadi_4.4/Troubleshooting has solutions to many problems.
