In my case I am migrating from Apple Address Book on my Mac. But when
I try to add the CardDAV account stated in my ownCloud Contacts app, I
get an error in Address Book saying:
"Address Book couldn't discover the account settings for the CardDAV
server "https://[my
domain]/owncloud/apps/contacts/carddav.php/addressbooks/[my
username]/default". Make sure the user name and server address are
correct, then click Create."
I am running Apple Address Book on Mac OS X 10.6.8, can anyone help
with this? Thanks.
