Hi, Yes, that would be annoying. Skype should be accessing your contacts if you’ve given the Skype app permission to do so. If you’ve gone through the process of cleaning up contacts, it should eventually clean up those contacts within Skype too. I’m not sure how Skype works when it gains

Hi Dave, The “Look for Duplicates” item will simply show you the duplicate cards in the table. It does not automatically merge them, it simply isplays them in a list. You can decide what to do with them yourself. You could decide to delete one of them, merge them, leave them alone, all up

Tim, Nice explanation. I tried the duplicate items process, but the only problem I have is that I did not know in advance which contacts were going to be affected. Kind of shooting in the dark, and hoping for the best. Do you have any advice on how to show in advance what is going to happen?

Hi, Regarding contacts, I can help. For Skype, I’ll leave that to another. The purpose for having so many contact categories has to do with how many accounts you might have on your Mac or device. So, if you have an iCloud account, a Google account, a work account and maybe a personal ISP
