After a few days of troubleshooting a mysterious problem in Address Book -- any attempt to access a record would result in the dreaded spinning beach ball -- I came across this thread on Apple's discussion boards. Turns out that the built-in Helvetica.dfont on this machine had been blocked by opening an older copy of Helvetica in FontBook, inadvertently disabling Address Book. Who knew?
