Certain iCloud contacts NOT syncing to iPhone
iPhone 12 Pro. iOS 16.6.1
I also have an Apple Watch and iPad (just in case it matters)
I have only ONE contact list: All iCloud
On my phone, it only shows 94 contacts
On the iCloud Web interface (I have a Windows OS PC), it shows 100 contacts.
There are a specific 6 contacts that no matter what I do, will NOT sync from iCloud down to the iPhone. Same for my iPad and Apple Watch.
I have tried the toggle contacts off/on (in order to force a sync). I have verified that when i turn off the sync on the phone, it clears all the phone data contacts (shows zero). when I turn it back on, wait a few minutes, it shows 94 contacts.
It's the SAME 6 contacts each time. Have no idea why they won't sync.
It's not "this":
If your iCloud Contacts, Calendars, or Reminders won’t sync - Apple Support
As it's syncing, just specific items won't sync.
