I can longer launch these two apps. I have:
Repaired permissions
Removed prefs/plist files
Reinstalled safari

log below suggests something wrong with AddressBook framework?
I can't find this at all
Also read somewhere about system fonts causing this?

Any clues anybody?!

Thanks


HUGH

You seem to be missing the requisite AddressBook framework, or it's corrupt. It's a 1.4MB Unix Executable. It's interesting that Safari requires this file. If you need a copy of it, send me a private message and I'll get it to you when I have a chance.
