Adding New Contact issue

When I attempt to add a new contact in the Contacts app, either from a card or from the contacts menu, as I type in the very first couple of fields, the new card disappears entirely. Not the app though.

This is happening since the latest upgrade, in OS, but not in iOS. Not syncing over in iCloud.

Well we can guess who the un-named non iCloud Source could be.


1 - Suggest Disconnect from the Internet Completely and then add the info to Contacts. Then re-connect to internet .


OR >>


2 - Uncheck Contacts from Syncing to the Third Party Source. Add the info and pause. Re-enable the Sync to the Third Party Source

The way Google handles things is not the same way Apple handles things.


That, in the case of Google, is to have their Service Function to the Requirements on the macOS it is being used.


Not the Other way around.


Just do a general search on the First Page of these Forums
