How to open ABCDG file?
An often recurring problem with Apple AddessBook is that ABCDG is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that ABCDG files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ABCDG file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install Mac OS X Address Book (Contacts)
In this case, you should first verify that the Mac OS X Address Book (Contacts) application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Mac OS X Address Book (Contacts) in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file ABCDG with Mac OS X Address Book (Contacts).

Programs to open ABCDG file
Remember to download programs supporting ABCDG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Mac OS X Address Book (Contacts) with ABCDG files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ABCDG file to open in the Mac OS X Address Book (Contacts) application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Mac OS X Address Book (Contacts) application as the default for handling the ABCDG file.
Step 3. Update Mac OS X Address Book (Contacts) to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Mac OS X Address Book (Contacts) program with the Apple AddessBook file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ABCDG file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The ABCDG file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ABCDG file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ABCDG or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected ABCDG files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the ABCDG files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ABCDG file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file ABCDG except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move ABCDG to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the ABCDG file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ABCDG to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ABCDG file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
