OK In hopes of pinning this bug
On a 2 GHz Intel Core Duo Mac Book Pro with 2GB of memory, many GB of free disk space, Mac OS X 10.4.8 in Safe Boot mode... If I open the PowerMail Address Book (command-ctrl-A), then open a contact in the group "Apple Address Book Contacts" then right click on the contact and choose "Open Contact in PowerMail Address Book", then click on the email address in the left column of the contact, and Copy (Command-C)... then I get a pop-up message "An error occurred: Error -4989". This happens with every contact I have tried (sample size > 5). I have had this bug for many years, on many versions of Mac OS X (at least since 10.3, perhaps 10.2), and on many PPC computers as well as this Intel MBP. My settings of the "Synchronization" panel of Preferences have changed over the years, so I suspect that the bug is independent of that. The only significant "haxie" that I use is Default Folder and (more recently) Keyboard Maestro and Missing Sync for Palm OS--but a safe boot should have turned them off. Scripting Additions include "Adobe Unit Types", "24U Appearance OSAX.osax", "Acme Script Widgets.osax", "Default Folder X Addition.osax", "List & Record Tools.osax", "MacPackToolbox.osax", and "Property List Tools.osax", some of which are PPC only and I think can't be called by Intel code.
