           Summary: Lost all contacts and unable to save new contacts
           Product: kaddressbook
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: bobby.culture at web.de
                CC: tokoe at kde.org


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.3)
Compiler:          GCC 4.4 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

I lost all my contacts that were imported from KDE 3.5.x to KDE 4.1 after
updating to KDE 4.2 some months ago. I tried to import the contacts again but
got this message: "Address book file
/home/bobby/.kde/share/apps/kab/addressbook.kab not found! Make sure the old
address book is located there and you have read permission for this file."
The address book is actually here:/home/bobby/.kde/share/apps/kaddressbook but
the path is set to import from the aforementioned path. How can this be changed
and why isn't the right path set?
I got this message after I was asked if the existing adresses should be
overwritten. Funny enough the adress book is empty! At least to my eyes.
If I try to add an address to the adress book then I get this error message:
"The resource '/home/bobby/.kde4/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf' is locked by
application ''.
This has been going on like that for months now and hadn't been changed with
all the updates that I have made.
If I can't import the old adresses then at least I would like to be able to
save new ones.
