this script doesn't seem to be working anymore...when i run it it says i have no contacts and just hangs.

i could attempt to fix it but i would just like to verify it im not doing something wrong...of course i entered my login info where indicated.

I'm sorry, I missed your comment earlier. Thereseems to be a problem with the code: No contacts are found. I haven't had the time to look into it, yet.

can you update the code please, not working :(
