[QUOTE="sullij, post: 1630517, member: 303724"] I know I should know how to control this, but... I run gmail, iCloud, 2 x yahoo account and sync them across mac desktop, mac laptop, and iPhone. I used to also sync with PC desktop and PC laptop, but no longer. a. when I create a group in Mac Contacts on the desktop, I seem to also create up to 12 more similar-but not identical groups when I check back later. b. When I create a note on the laptop, I find the note on all the devices, but on some, I have 1 note and in others I have up to 7 of the SAME note I guess I should decide which application I really want, and just use it, and turn off sync; however, I use each for different things. This is not a new issue, I have ignored it for a couple of years. Also note in some cases I used web versions of mail (i.e. gmail ) and in others I use Apple Mail. [/QUOTE]
