Using a 1.25 GHz PowerPC G4 ... before Panther instillation Address Book worked like a charm - now I get a "You cannot use this version of the application Address Book with this version of Mac OS X" message box. However, IF I search out a name in my Address Book, it shows up as a 'contact' - and upon clicking on that, I get the Address Book in it's full (operational) glory. What's up with that? How do I get Address Book to come up each time it's summoned - minus the work around?!?

Thanks for any solution(s).

Scott

AFAIK you can only upgrade the Address Book, not downgrade. It's not surprising that this does not work. Any reason why you want to go back to Panther?

WHOA! Not Panther - I'm talking Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard, here!

(I've got too many cats on my mind!)

Let's start all over again ... "I'm using a 1.25 GHz PowerPC G4 ... before my current LEOPARD instillation, my Address Book worked like a charm - now I get a "You cannot use this version of the application Address Book with this version of Mac OS X" message box. However, IF I search out a name in my Address Book, it shows up as a 'contact' - and upon clicking on that, I get the Address Book in it's full (operational) glory. What's up with that?
