As written yesterday, I hope the birthday issue was fixed.
Did you notice any other issues in email, phones, addresses or Notes?

I did some tests with an old file and a more recent VCF file, both 
generated by Addresses on Mac. So not a broad format test.
I noticed the following:
First, Phone/Email/Addresses were not classified correctly: they 
resulted always of type "Work". While there is a lot of code there to 
handle that, I believe it could never have worked - at least on the 
Apple format which is coherent with vCard specifications. Types were 
not correctly extracted and Matched. I extensively rewrote parsing. 
Could you test on your file?
You should see Phones assined to Home/Work/Mobile, Address and Email 
to Home/Work. Of course only if your orifinal file contains 
specifications to e.g. TEL or EMAIL. I left in some debug logs to spit 
them out so you can see

Second, some characters were escaped badly. I rewrote that code 
totally. It work sin my case but needs to be checked. It works for my 
test files very well, including images.
