[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1643292, member: 46727"] You don't double click the contacts.app, you double click the contacts file that I gave you the path to above. If that's what you mean, then the only way you're going to get those contacts back is to reinstall Yosemite, restore the Time Machine backup, and follow my directions above about exporting to a Vcf file. Then restore to Snow Leopard and import the contacts Vcf file into your address book app. Sorry, but I know of no other way. 2000 contacts is way too many to try and re-create. You unfortunately have lots of work to do. [/QUOTE]
