Monterey OS won't let you add a new contact

Why can't you add a new contact as soon as I type in the contact name it disappears. How the heck are you suppose to add a contact when your entry information disappears? MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2021) Monterey OS


[Re-Titled by Moderator]

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)
