Mail and Address Book not responding after Snow Leopard Upgrade: Solution

One of the biggest oversight by Apple with the recent Snow Leopard upgrade has got to be this (in my opinion). The first thing I noticed when after launching my address book at the start was that it took a very long time to populate the contacts. I rebooted a few times and the same thing happened…

The problem is that the smart group appears to no longer allow smart groups to do filters by on the category ‘Group’… I previously had a smart group for all contacts that I didn’t have in an ordinary group.

The solution is relatively simple…

just delete this smart group!


I found this solution after Googling around and found this in the apple forum – Mail and Address Book hang (not responding) at launch after Snow Leopard upgrade
