Yup, Application Support was empty! Jèrôme pointed it out for me privately. Until then, I even didn't know what's missing. I logged into root and copied the entire AddressBook directory to my main user account followed by chown/chmod. Now it is working :-) The question is, how did it happen?! This was newly formated disk and OSX-only scratch install :-( Thank you for your response. Best. -- - Hiro [PROTECTED] <[PROTECTED]>
