Profile picture on Mac not synching with what I set.

I want to change my mac profile picture as my current one is old. I went into settings, users and groups, and changed my profile picture there (which also changed my apple ID picture) but when i go to log into my mac, the picture is still the old one.

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 14.2

Make th change in your Contacts app as well and test.


If no resolve try a Safeboot to clear system cache then reboot as normal.
