Operating system Big Sur - 11.1
I have deleted a number of contacts that had associated birthdays that appeared in the Calendar app. Whilst most of the birthdays have been removed from Calendar, some remain. They have however been removed from my iPad and iPhone. When i click on them to see the details and open the related contact card a blank contact card opens.
Any ideas how i can remove these rogue birthdays.
Thanks
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.1
Hi cookiemonsterinsing,
Thank you for joining Apple Support Communities! We understand that you're still seeing birthdays for contacts that have been deleted from your Mac.
We'd recommend starting with the steps to "Refresh calendars" here: Refresh calendars on Mac
If you continue to see birthdays for contacts that have been deleted, try removing the Birthday calendar then re-adding it: Show contacts’ birthdays in Calendar on Mac
Let us know if you need any additional help after trying this.
Cheers!

Perhaps updating to Big Sur 11.3.1 could resolve your issue ? Plenty of under the hood fixes since 11.1
Thank you. the last step of removing and re-dding the birthdays in calendar worked. Much apprecieated.
