Is there a way to create more than one AddressBook ' account ' . What I want to do is to be able to backup different phones ( if poss. via iSync ). So one woud be my personal phone, one my work phone, one my girlfriends phone etc etc.

Could this be done within the program? Or could I have a 2nd / 3d copy of AB ( but wouldn't they access the same pref files & databases? )


cheers
 
I don't think it would be easy to have multiple AB "accounts". Assuming you are using iSync to sync the contents you can sync a different group with each phone. So you would create one group per phone. If you want some privacy for your girlfriend just give her a whole new user account.
