Cannot open address book
Running Ubuntu jaunty on a Dell desktop, until now with Thunderbird for email. Recently acquired a Samsung netbook, on which I installed Ubuntu netbook remix, which introduced me to Evolution. Whole set-up works fine and I like the look and feel of it. For simplicity and communality, I installed Evolution on the Dell as well.
Because I run two accounts and some filters, I migrated the Samsung Evolution set-up to the Dell, using Backup (on the Samsung) and Restore (on the Dell) across my LAN. That all worked fine too, except for the address books (5): they show up, but cannot be opened. Errer message is:
"This address book cannot be opened. Please check that the path /home/mcb/
Detailed error message: Permission denied"
I can create a new address book, but get the same error message when I try to open it. And I cannot delete any of these address books, nor can I actually find them anywhere, say /home/.evolution/ or /usr/share/
I have actually uninstalled evolution completely, cleared the relevant files and re-installed - still the address books appear, but are not accessible.
What should I do?
