Hi, Yes, that would work just fine. Just make sure that you turn off iCloud syncing for Contacts in System Prefs first before doing any wiping, otherwise, you'll lose it all. Also, when it asks if you want to keep a copy of your contacts on your Mac, say "No". This should help to make sure that there's no duplicates when you re-enable syncing of contacts. It should have figured that out the first time, but computers do mess up sometimes :).

I found duplicates so used the look for duplicates function. In the On My Mac section, all the groups are doubled. So before I do any more on the Mac, I will look at the contacts on my iPhone. If that looks good, I want to know if I can safely disable syncing of contacts on the Mac and wipe them then enable syncing again. Would that work? Thanks. >From E.T.'s Keyboard. . .
