Journal OctaneZ's Journal: Stupid Apple! Stupid Motorola! Stupid OctaneZ?

So I noticed my Apple Addressbook was empty today when I went to much with iChat. No problem I thought, I'll just sync it off my phone, I've added a couple entries to it recently, no problem! Fire up sync, let it turn through everything, and lo, it decided to keep seven!!!! Yes SEVEN!!!! of my addresses and delete everything else off my phone!!!

WTF! How did that happen! It didn't even zero out everything, it kept SEVEN contacts!! Grrrrr.... Too tired to type them all in again right now. Guess I need to pull out the old phone again. So pissed.

The "addressbook.data.previous trick" won't work for me, as I didn't know about it, until I had already added my parents back into the addressbook, so the .previous file was overwritten.
