Apps needing access to Contacts are not showing in the Privacy pane of security

Question

I have apps like cobook and Alfred that need access to Contacts but they are not showing in the Privacy pane of the Security & Privacy System Preferences.

Answer 1

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Application Support/com.apple.TCC/TCC.db
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Log out, log back in, and test. All your privacy settings will be reset to their defaults. If there's no change, put the item you moved back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place, and log out again. Otherwise, delete the item you moved.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
