Well, most of those duplicates were very old. They got created when upgrading OSes or upgrading new devices. Some were not really duplicates but when moving the files, the phone numbers got rotated one number. The top number became the bottom one if there were multiple numbers. Or one was a company entry and the others were individuals in different departments or even different locations. Some of the duplicates had previously been manually combined and the extras deleted, but I still needed to hit the merge entries button to clear then now.?
It has only been a couple of days and no new entries on either app, so I can’t say the issue is resolved, but I hope so.
Calendar and Contacts are highly linked, but why duplicates in one would affect syncing on the other makes no sense, at least to a human.

Re: printer incompatibility
I forgot to ask Canon said would be the issue, incompatible is an awfully big bailiwick. Is it going from 32-bit to 64-bit or what?
In 2009 I needed a new printer. I had an Apple branded HP laserwriter, about 15 years old and high mileage by the previous owner, Disney Studios. Built like a tank, and a mechanical part finally broke that I could not source.?
So I bought a HP LaserJet P1006. Turns out that was one of the periods when HP dropped all Mac support and drivers. It took a little experimentation, but I figured out the install sequence of the old driver and which files to drop. About 12-18 months later, they released an updated driver. But I had already figure it out.?
I also have two unsupported scanners, a flat bed and a auto feed. The drivers no longer function, so I just use Image Capture, years after support was dropped.
There are generic drivers for both printers and scanners, you just have to look, and maybe buy them.

I saw the same message, but I think it said “may” be incompatible in the future. In any event, I will keep using it until either it dies or becomes no longer supported. At the rate Canon supports its printers, I think that will be for a long time yet.?
What computer/OS are you using? What model is your Canon printer?
My needs are like yours, B/W printing on rare occasions. If I were to have to replace this printer, I’d go with a Brother laser. Reliable, inexpensive, easy to maintain, long-term support.

Re: New contacts not showing up on iPhone
Yeah, but then when it finally syncs, you will have duplicate entries. This is something very basic that should not need a workaround.?

Re: New contacts not showing up on iPhone
Sure, that’s a workaround alright. It has nothing to do with syncing as you are creating a new contact on iPhone. It would be good to get your syncing working again the way it’s supposed to work.

Re: printer incompatibility
Kurt Youngmann,
One question, resulting from my own 40 years of being a Mac user, is “Whose software update will make your Canon printer become incompatible?” If it is Canon’s software, it is not YOUR problem unless you install it. If it is the next MacOS update that renders your Canon printer obsolete, it is not your problem unless you install it. If your printer is working to your satisfaction, your question is whether losing it is worth whichever “update” you decide to install.
I suspect it is a “scare tactic” used by Canon to get you to buy a new Canon printer. Apple usually does not warn the users of the many different brands of peripherals that they are about to make their equipment obsolete. Also, how many companies are going to warn you about another company’s software causing you a problem with their product you bought?

Dutch Sometimes it takes a bit to sync, although normally not.
Make sure you have "All Contacts" and "All iCloud" selected in the Contact's app prefs. Also, go to the very bottom to see the number of contacts to prove the totals.

Re: How to CANCEL Gemini?
Was this something subscribed to through the Apple App store? ?I have a few subscriptions that are managed through my Apple ID, which on my Mac Mini running Sequoia 15.2 is in the main computer Settings, Apple account, Media and Purchases, Subscriptions with a “manage” button to make changes, including cancel. ?My iPhone has a similar section to manage subscriptions, but it is one level up from where it is on the Mac desktop. It is crazy easy to cancel these, by clicking into the desired subscription then hitting “cancel subscription”.
If this was separately subscribed to, I am not familiar with the item so have no other suggestions, sorry.

Re: printer incompatibility
Sight unseen - no, you're not. As I was just reminded, we learned to use computers when it was hard. Punch cards, floppy disks, paper tape, and even harder - some of us had to use Selectric typewriters.
Sorry I can't recommend a printer because my wonderful ten-year-old $59 Samsung laser, which is still chugging away, has been discontinued. But you want a cheap laser and you want to refill it with cartridges from Amazon.
