where is my "address book card" on the disk?

[Racer D]

well a simple question. my address book card seems to crash my address book, so I'd like to remove it or create a new one (obviously not from the address book) so does anyone have any idea where on disk I can find it? (what file)

thanks

User / Library / Addresses / Address Book.addressbook - file contains all your addressbook data.

[racer:~/Library] racer% cd Adresses
csh: Adresses: No such file or directory.

hmm?

Addresses has two 'd's.

Anyways, my address book data under 10.3 is not stored there -- in fact, that directory doesn't even exist on my 10.3 system.

My address card is located in ~/Library/Preferences/AddressBookMe.plist

The rest of the data seems to be located in ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/AddressBook.data

Hope that helps!

ah the typo... using panther anyway
removed ~/Library/Preferences/AddressBookMe.plist but I still see myself in the address book. But if I try doing anything (preferences, add account etc) the proggy crashes. I removed it's preferences in cache, no luck.

Maybe it isn't my card that crashes it? what else could it be

[edit: as expected, it works perfectly for the other user]

after some debugging using the console I found out it was missing fonts. I did disable some before, with font book. I enabled them back and it works. wii
