Hello, i have no idea if i'm putting this in the right place, so please apologise me if i'm mistaken.

Yesterday i choose unintentionally "recent contacts" when trying to add a new contact, and now contacts does not ends opening, and says "internal error contacs application closed"
Even when i don't open contacts it starts to display this message, it seems contacts is making an endless loop trying to open.

I tried "killall contacts" but it does not find the process.

¿Anything i can do?

I need to use my contact book.

Thanks,

Happened to me too, some time ago.
I had no idea, what could have caused it.

But it is easily possible to restore. So do not worry.
Unfortunately I do not remember actually.
Let me think for a moment ...


... okay, got it sorted again
Thought it was just an ini file, but we have to use gconf.

Open x-term and type:
Output will be "0" or "1"

Depending on output type either (output was 0):
or (output was 1):
Open contacts and done.

0 = ABC
1 = status
2 = recent
