Sometimes I can't move a Contact to a List (group of Contacts) on my iMac. I've checked and the Contact isn't already in the List. Both the Contact and the List are in iCloud. Can anyone tell me what could prevent a Contact from being added to a List?

Hi,
I had the same problem today. I could add a contact to a list using the iCloud website and on my iPhone but couldn't on my Mac. Nor could I delete any of my contacts using the Contacts app on my Mac.
What finally worked for me was by going into the Contacts>Settings>Accounts>iCloud. I unchecked Enable this account then rechecked it.
When I unchecked Enable this account all my contacts disappeared and when I rechecked them, they all got downloaded again. After that I could add contacts to a list and delete old contacts.
Hope this helps.
I cannot drag 3 contacts into a separate list, and they won't go in the list. It is not a Smart List
Very frustrating problem on Ventura 13.3.1. This solution also worked for me. Thank u muchly.
Thanks for posting this. It solved my issue. I lost an hour of my life trying to figure this out before I found your post. This is a bug that Apple really needs to fix. I'm on Ventura 13.2.1.
We are having the same problem as well with contacts ... and also having problems with calendar since updating to Ventura - VERY frustrating. This upgrade is very glitchy!
Thank you. Worked well.
Thankyou Eric. This worked perfectly. Such a ridiculous glitch, glad I found a solution thanks to you
this was under the wrong subject..
Native Mac apps are becoming almost unusable--this Contacts issue is a perfect example. Thanks Francesca Rocca for the workaround.

Thank you for your comment. It worked like a charm.
I still can't add people to a list in Contacts. I've unchecked an re-checked "Enable this" in settings in contacts. No success. How can I make this work?
Thank you Francesco, your disable/enable resolved the add and delete contact to a group worked perfectly!!!
