I am using the following code to retrieve the email addresses of persons picked by the user

ABMultiValueRef emailMultiValue = ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonEmailProperty);
NSArray *emailAddresses = (__bridge NSArray*)ABMultiValueCopyArrayOfAllValues(emailMultiValue);

Everything has worked fine since iOS6 and Facebook integration came. When I choose a contact that is not linked to a Facebook account (this means that I’m not friend on FB with this contact) everything works fine and I retrieve 2 email addresses (work and home).
But when I select a contact that is linked to me via Facebook (this contact has also a home and work email address plus the Facebook email address in the contact browser) the emailAddresses array is nil.

Does anyone had this problem before or has any hints on this?

Thanks in advance!

    I found out that since iOS6 there are linked contacts (normal contact <-> facebook <-> twitter and so on…).

    In order to get all emails of all linked contacts, the following post helped me:
    iOS 6 address book empty kABPersonPhoneProperty

    Hope it helps!
