Some server contacts could not be copied to this address book.
An alert icon appears next to 'All iCloud' within the Contacts app. Once clicked, an alert notification appears on the screen that reads, "Some server contacts could not be copied to this address book." Neither the operating system, nor the web-based help communities provide a means of troubleshooting this problem. As a result of this problem it seems that my iCloud contacts are never in sync across my Apple devices (i.e. iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro), namely on my MacBook Pro, which is my primary device and should always provide the most complete data bank of contacts. Contacts on the web-based iCloud interface always matches what is on the iPhone and iPad but rarely the MacBook Pro. All devices are running the most current updates for the most recent operating system releases as of 12/02/2014.
To support community members viewing this post, please offer the best means of troubleshooting this problem without resulting in the deletion of contacts or information within contacts. I thank you all in advance for your time and attention.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7)
