have to invalid this one because same thing happens with Personal Address Book,
have to restart AB (close and reopen) to see entries in the newly created AB

Unable to reproduce on my Mac.  Is anyone else seeing this problem?  What build

was this found with?  Can you reproduce on Mac?



I have entered a new card, hit OK, see it in the results pane, click on it in the

results pane, and see it in the card view pane.  I am using a debug build from

this morning on the Mac.

actually this bug was entered for Windows build.I guess i understand this
problem more in details now:
it is similar to the Mail problem: when you switch to another Mail folder you
can not view the body, this is the same thing : when you're switching between
two Address Books you can not see properties of the card in one of them

OK if you switch between two address books then you are having the multi-select
bug (or whatever it is called).  The problem is that you are not really able to
select anything or you get multiple items selected.  We should mark this as a
duplicate of the other bug.
