[QUOTE="donlon, post: 1318584, member: 213006"] I removed the local copy on my Mac, by choosing the contacts "red ribbon" on top on the contactbook, the page is flipping and you see all your contact books. I removed the local one (on my Mac) so only the iCloud contact book was there ...you may want to make a backup of your contact, just in case. No your new contact where added to your local copy of your contactbook, as it is probably default ...you need to use iCloud contact as default on all devices for this to work. Try to open Addressbook, click settings and account ...tick "make this account active" on Icloud..don't know the exact words used in your language. Sorry for the bad explanation, but I was just finding my way to make iCloud work too, and this is as I remember and I'm not sure you need to remove the local copy at all, but you for sure need to make iCloud active and default [/QUOTE]
