Hi:
That worked well, I was able to read in the file no problem. I guest
Apple uses a proprietary or undocumented format for the image data in
the Address Book. You can't just throw in a JPEG or TIFF. The image
files are kept in Library/Application Support/AddressBook/Images and
you can view them.
Funny thing is I can take the image of one person and add it to a
second person. But I can't read in a raw image file and add it. Later
I'll try to strip away the JPEG or TIFF headers and load only the data
portion.
