Hi - long term user of QS. Great App.

Have recently upgraded to El Capitan and find that I can no longer access my Address Book. 

Looked in the Plug Ins and seems to have been disabled. 

Any advice on how to access Address Book agains?

Thanks

The plugin was renamed to ‘Contact plugin’ based on the name change in OS X itself. Install that and you should be good to go.

Similar problem here.  

Also a longtime Quicksilver user (and couldn't do without it).  And I MUST have address book / Contacts integration but I'm a little far back in the upgrade department.    Just upgraded the OS from 10.6.8 to 10.8.5 (it's a long story and, yes, you can laugh).   Anyway, had the same problem and did realized the renamed plugin (from address book to contacts) and figured it would solve my problem, too.  Only problem is no matter what I do, it seems to remain disabled, I assume because I'm using an older OS?   So, I need to find a Contact plugin that will work with 10.8.5 (or I'm really sunk because it's really a big part of my every day).

I've searched around but can't find any older versions of QS plugins. 

Any ideas would be appreciated !

Thanks

The web site always links to the most recent version of a plug-in
(though you can get older versions by trail-and-error with the number in
the URL).

The in-app system should be able to find the correct plug-in for your
version of Quicksilver and OS X. Have you tried deleting the plug-in and
adding it from within the app?

Hi Rob,

THANK YOU !

Yes, deleting the plugin and adding it, again, from within the app did the trick !

Thank you again for your fast [and super helpful] reply.
