iCloud Contact Photos Going Missing Ever Since New Mac.

I have recently purchased a late 2013 mac pro and my contact photos are now randomly going away from my iCloud on mac and web. it is a real pain to try to find them again and I am starting to think I am not the problem. I am wondering if there is a way to fix this issue myself or if apple has to fix it because the web version of iCloud is just saying the photo cannot be loaded at this time.

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 14.2

Figured out the fix. Quit contacts app, then go to “~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook” and delete ALL files. After that reboot your Mac and open the contacts app. It will rebuild the database and the problem should be solved.
