One thing I found out is on OSX if you are using icloud for your contacts is that the local database of icloud contacts (the thing that "Address Book" or "Contacts", depending which version of OSX you're using) is stored in sqlite. I'm actually *not* using lbdb for my personal contacts, I found a script on github which would do the searching for me. https://github.com/andrewlkho/icloud-addressbook-query I didn't like its handling of the Organization label on my contacts, so I forked it and made a small change. It works very nicely, though. Here's the link to my fork, if you're interested: https://github.com/kitchen/icloud-addressbook-query Again, this is only for OSX/icloud, which is my primary address book! > Thanks! Cheers!
