[QUOTE="MacHeadCase, post: 350676"] Probably the pref file contains the data somehow? If you are in Panther, I would first run Apple's Disk Utility from the Utilities folder (for [B][I]Panther[/I][/B] it is best to run it directly from the hard drive than from the CD... has something to do with the BOM file that resides in the CD compared to the one that is in the hard drive) and then make it repair disk permissions. If you haven't emptied the trash with the pref file, I would restart and then put it back in its proper place if the repair disk permissions task didn't bring the data back in your Address Book. [B][I]Edited to add:[/I][/B] DOH! You already have tried repairing disk permissions I see... Ok did you run OnyX to clear up your user cache? [/QUOTE]
Verification
How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
