Hi, Cheryl, It’s interesting that you posted aobut having problems with Contacts since I am also having problems. I was able to put a few groups together on the Mac but because I haven’t done much with it in the past few months, I feel like I’m back to square one now. I was able to send a required message to one of my groups but had some difficulty putting new people in that group and now I can’t even find the group. Is there an easy way to go between group lists and contact information etc? I have been pressing vo command t and going into each of the tables and that seems to work some of the time. But it feels like the most unorganized ap on the computer. I also have duplications.
Any suggestions would be helpful.
