ABPersonSetImageData works if no image, does nothing if image exists

Question

Hi all, I'm stuck and don't know what to do. The apple docs don't seem to cover this very well.

My code:

- (BOOL)peoplePickerNavigationController:(ABPeoplePickerNavigationController *)peoplePicker shouldContinueAfterSelectingPerson:(ABRecordRef)person{
NSDictionary *info = [self selectedProjectInfo];

ABAddressBookRef addressBook = ABAddressBookCreate();

CFErrorRef error = nil;

if (ABPersonSetImageData(person, (CFDataRef)(UIImageJPEGRepresentation([UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:[info objectForKey:@"ImagePath"]], 1.0f)), &error))
{
    ABAddressBookAddRecord(addressBook, person, &error);

    NSLog(@"Set contact photo %@", error);
    if (ABAddressBookHasUnsavedChanges(addressBook))
    {
        NSLog(@"Changes made to address book");
    }
    else {
        NSLog(@"No changes made to address book");
    }

    if (ABAddressBookSave(addressBook, &error))
    {
        NSLog(@"Saved");
        UIAlertView *contactSuccessAlert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Success" message:nil delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
        [contactSuccessAlert show];
        [contactSuccessAlert release];
    }
    else {
        NSLog(@"Not saved");
    }
}
else {
    NSLog(@"Error saving contact photo %@", error);
}
CFRelease(addressBook);

[self.navigationController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
return NO;

}

It works fine if there is no existing image in the contact, but if one already exists it's not replaced. Does anyone know what I should do?

Many thanks in advance
