EUREKA! I've got it! :D

I copied my backup of /home/user (before update) on a laptop which still  
runs Kubuntu 11.04. And after restart, the contacts are shown immediately,  
without doing any configurations!

But ~/.local/share/contacts still doesn't exists, ~/.kde/share/apps/kabc  
still contains only empty files and ~/.kde/share/apps/kabc/stdvcf still  
doesn't exists.

Akonadi Console brows says Personal Contacts 332 Total Size 681,9 KiB but  
the Akonadi Ressource (Type: Personal Contacts) referes to  
~/.local/share/contacts (which doesn't exists).

But anyway, I can see my contacts and so I exported them as vCard3.0  
(kates show readable and reasonable content) and imported them in my  
Desktop (Kubuntu 11.10 KDE 4.7.2 KAddressbook 4.7.2)

DAMNED! I can't see my contacts! :(

I tried import several times, now there are 225 files in  
~/.local/share/contacts/ like 0OM4DuwOee.vcf and in  
~/.kde/share/apps/kabc/stdvcf/ are 332 files like 0gA6f6LFP7 (btw why 225  
and 332 files?) But ~/.kde/share/apps/kabc contains still contains empty  
files.

In "Systemsteuerung" I have "Persönliche Kontakte" referring to  
~/.local/share/contacts/ (containing 225 files), running and "Adressbuch"  
format vCard referring to ~/.kde/share/apps/kabc/stdvcf (containing 332  
files) also running.

KDE resources says for "Kontakte" Default Address Book Type file,  
standard, referring to ~/.kde/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf I tried to add  
another resource, called akonadi-resource Type akonadi, read only. In the  
folder list are "Adressbuch" (~/.kde/share/apps/kabc/stdvcf) and  
"Persönliche Kontakte" (~/.local/share/contacts/). Unfortunately I can not  
remove the read only and so I can't set it to standard.

But I still can't see my contacts. Unfortunately I have only a two-tiered  
view with Contact-list on the left an contact details on the right.  
http://imagebin.org/182139 I can't find a way to the tripartite view with  
addressbooks, contact-list and contact details.

I tried to restart the PC, remove an re-install KAddressbook - no contacts  
shown.

I also tried to add addressbook folders. They are stored in  
~/.local/share/contacts/ but contain only WARNING_README.txt In KDE  
resources the are also listed under "Persönliche Kontakte".

Please help me.
Andreas
