Re(2): Copying address bug still there
OK In hopes of pinning this bug On a 2 GHz Intel Core Duo Mac Book Pro with 2GB of memory, many GB of free disk space, Mac OS X 10.4.8 in Safe Boot mode... If I open the PowerMail Address Book (command-ctrl-A), then open a contact in the group Apple Address Book Contacts then right click on the contact and choose Open Contact in PowerMail Address Book, then click on the email address in the left column of the contact, and Copy (Command-C)... then I get a pop-up message An error occurred: Error -4989. This happens with every contact I have tried (sample size 5). I have had this bug for many years, on many versions of Mac OS X (at least since 10.3, perhaps 10.2), and on many PPC computers as well as this Intel MBP. My settings of the Synchronization panel of Preferences have changed over the years, so I suspect that the bug is independent of that. The only significant haxie that I use is Default Folder and (more recently) Keyboard Maestro and Missing Sync for Palm OS--but a safe boot should have turned them off. Scripting Additions include Adobe Unit Types, 24U Appearance OSAX.osax, Acme Script Widgets.osax, Default Folder X Addition.osax, List Record Tools.osax, MacPackToolbox.osax, and Property List Tools.osax, some of which are PPC only and I think can't be called by Intel code.

If I open the individual address from the address book. I get the copy error also. BTW: Copy via the main Address Book window copies only the name - not the email address.

Actually, I have the default to open in AddressBook, but right-click to open the address in PowerMail's Address Book. Don V.

I get the same behavior. Richard Hart Alan Harper wrote: Open PowerMail's address book, open a contact in the address book, click on an email address for that contact and Copy. A message pops up: An error occurred: Error -4989. Luckily, the email address does go onto the clipboard.
