Finally made the Switch. Just opened the box only 5 days ago. Was tediously filling my new address book, when all of a sudden, the previous 30 entries went POOF! All GONE! What the heck happened? I'm nervous about inputting them again in fear of losing them again. What could I have done wrong???

G'day Carleen & welcome to Mac-Forums.

I did some searching on the web and found a thread on another forum where a person was able to recover his lost Address Book data and thought it might help you. Here is the link:

I later found this:

In Address Book, make sure that you've clicked on All under Group. It's possible that you set up a new address group by accidentally clicking the + key under Group and don't realize it.
