I have been all over but am unable to locate where (10.4.9) my personal info is stored. I just moved and need to update my address instead of the old address that pops up when I fill in a form. Can someone point me in the right direction?? Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure if the autofill picks up its info from the Address Book's vCard you have... Might be worth a try to edit your info in the Address Book.

If it's a web form that's filling in the fields, that's your Autofill feature of Safari in action.

In addition to correcting your Address Book, as MHC suggests, you should also try resetting Safari: Safari --> Reset Safari

Thanks MHC - that did it!! Never would have thought to look in there. Also Caribiner23: before I reset Safari - what exactly "resets" (before I do it).

It makes Safari go back to defaults. But you don't lose your bookmarks, just your personal settings like font size changes, etc.

Oh and glad it worked Papa.
