This is not good. I just lost about 400 entries in my Apple Address
Book!
I did a Sync with Newt Sync and got this error: (I shortened it)
Error: NSInternalInconsistencyException
Reason: Invalid parameter not satisfying: _ABCheckTypeOfValue(value,
propertyType)

Computer: EXECUTESCRIPT!
Newton: SCRIPT
Computer: ConnectButton.currentQuerySpec := { validTest:func(entry)
(ClassOf(entry) = 'person) and (EntryModTime(entry) >= TotalMinutes({
year:2003,month:05,date:06,hour:14,minute:55,second:59, })) }
Newton: 
Computer: RECORDCOUNT!
Newton: 201
Computer: NEXTRECORD!
Newton: {address2 = "";addresses = ();address = "";class =
"person";postal_code = "";region = "";city = "";email = { class =
"string.email"; value = "";};title = "";country = "";name = {class =
"person";first = "Melissa";last = "Winslow";title = "";honorific =
"";};company = "";emailAddrs = ();phones = ({ class = "homePhone";
value = "";},{ class = "mobilePhone"; value = "";});_modTime =
"52256892";uniqueID = "94";}

I thought this was odd so I tried to open my address book. NOTHING!!
It is all gone. The Newt seems fine, but the address book is empty.

Where does the Mac store this info? I looked in the library/address
book file, but it won't open with anything.

Please help if you can. There were a lot of fax entries (over 100)
that I really need.

Thanks,
...........karl
