how change/set one of multiple accounts for autofill on Safari?

I have 5 different email accounts. Autofill used to use my most common one, the same as one for Apple, but now it's switched to a google one I rarely use. So on 9 out of 10 sign-ins I must type in correct one. defeats autofill. I can't find anything in Preferances on autofill or in Safari as to which account is primary or one to use.

How do I change or set it?

thanks

Safari  AutoFill takes information stored in Contacts app.


Launch Contacts.

Make a "New Card".  Contacts > File > New Card

Enter the desired email addresses in preferred order

Make the new card "My Card".

Contacts > Card > Make This My Card.

Restart your Mac.

sorry didn't answer. I was on road

So, I did it. but when clicked done, Contacts changed order! Not alphabetical. can't tell its system. my contact has been screwed up a couple years. ever since iCloud doubled my number of contacts, my Contacts stops continually and I get the spinning ball. often fails in middle of creating new contact.

so, this problem may be just more of that. Possible?
