Hi Ronni, I get to see your photo and Adrian's photo, just like Tim does.
I've just checked the preferences in Address Book and each option in vCard was ticked, including "Enable private me card", "Export notes in vCards" and "Export photos in vCards". Such a trap for the unwary, especially if any-one has made notes on vCards, notes intended as a private aide memoir. Now to see if that blasted butterfly has taken umbrage at not being wanted, and has flown away. Regards, Michael. PS: I've now checked my entry as it was in my Address Book and that butterfly was there. I selected my Card and in the drop down menu chose card > Clear Custom Image and the butterfly went away. It has been replaced by one of the grey-out images the TV stations used to display when playing a sound bite.
