the meantime, I have updated all the software and tried to open up<br>
AddressBook and it won't load.<br><br>
I repaired permissions, restarted, still no go. I used the new iMac<br>
disks and reinstalled AddressBook from them, restarted, still no go.<br>
I have deleted all AB plists and still no go.<br><br>
Any ideas or should I jsut do an archive and install system software in full???<br>
