Address Book knows how to deal with an URL of the following format
addressbook://<unique id of a person>
and
addressbook://<unique id of a person>?edit
So to simply open address book with a person selected
ABPerson *selectedPerson = ....;
NSString *uniqueId = [selectedPerson uniqueId];
NSString *urlString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"addressbook://%@",
uniqueId];
[[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlString]];
If you want address book to be in edit mode add '?edit' at the end of
the URL
ABPerson *selectedPerson = ....;
NSString *uniqueId = [selectedPerson uniqueId];
NSString *urlString = [NSString
stringWithFormat:@"addressbook://%@?edit", uniqueId];
[[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlString]];
