Hello, first diagnostic test, try to run TB in "troubleshoot mode": hold down the Alt (Option) key while starting TB from the Dock and observe whether the problem persists

One more question: in the Address Book tab left panel is "Mac OS-X Address Book" activated?

Thanks ! Didn't know about the troubleshoot mode. The settings of the Mac address book have not changed for a very long time. So I can't quite place a problem there. As it seems anyway that TB has been sort of dicy these last few months, and now with this update major problem, I have decided for now to use a different client, I may possibly re-check TB when it is more stable. Thanks again !
