In the wake of moving up to Mac OS High Sierra, I saw that I ended up unfit to make new Contact records on my Mac.
I’d be part route through making another Contact in the Contacts application, and the screen would all of a sudden revive to a current Contact – and the one I was making simply vanished! On the off chance that I got to complete passage (for instance, on the off chance that I just entered a first and last name and the Done), the new Contact would show up in the rundown quickly, yet vanish again following a couple of moments. At in the first place, I thought I was hitting some weird key blend, or that I was accomplishing something different off-base. In any case, nothing I attempted appeared to work.
The issue perseveres today. I can alter existing Contact records, however I just can’t make them on my Mac. We utilize a Gmail represent our common business contacts and the issue is by all accounts identified with Gmail accounts. It appears I’m not the only one in having this issue. I checked the Apple bolster gatherings and there’s bunches of reports of a similar issue. Here are some proposed work-arounds.
- Make new Contacts utilizing your iPad or iPhone and these then synchronize back to the Mac, where you would then be able to alter the Contact Card to your heart’s substance. (Perhaps not the most exquisite arrangement, but rather this is the alternative I have been utilizing – and it spared my rational soundness when I found the issue.)
- Make the Contact first as an iCloud contact on the Mac, duplicate that new Contact card to the Gmail account, at that point delete it from iCloud contacts
- Disengage from the web briefly, include the Contact, at that point reconnect. This appears to maintain a strategic distance from the issue, as it appears that sync’ing wipes out what have made.
None of these choices are perfect, yet at any rate I have a work-around until Apple or potentially Google get around to settling this irritating issue!
