"Constant crashes of applications: Hi there Some time ago I got myself a MBP16 M1 Max. At the beginning there were no issues and it worked great. Since some time now I experience lots of crashes. From Safari suddenly turning black to applications (eg: photoshop, illustrator, logic, blender) just crashing (most of the time there is a error with accessing virtual memory). Also Audio (or Bluetooth) is crashing while my GPU is under heavy load or I'm using Mission Control to switch virtual desktops I already reinstalled macOS several times and brought it in for repair (apple didn’t find any HW related issues) greetings patahel"

Troubleshooting Contacts App Crashes:
A. Try Safe Mode:
While in Safe Mode, try using this browser. In Safe Mode, login items do not run, and corrupt system files(i.e. caches) are intentionally reset as a way to fix issues.
- Boot: in to Safe Mode: [Hold Down: shift key upon boot].
- Log in: as same user
- Try: this once more
- Restart the Mac Normally
- Try: this once more
B. Single-Out this User:
Try an Admin new user, see if you do not get this occur while in it. If so, then it is an issue with the configuration of the current user. If not, then it is an issue with the entire Mac.
C. Reinstall the macOS:
Nothing would be deleted. It's just that items that have become corrupted or deleted, would be replaced or reinstalled back to where they should be. Go Here: How to reinstall macOS from macOS Recovery - Apple Support. Important: Be certain to create a backup of your Mac prior to performing the reinstall. That way, you can have something to restore from the Mac from, should anything go wrong with the reinstall. Once reinstalled, try this once more, seeing if you still get this error.
