I have exported my contacts from my ipad and created a .vcf file. Now I get an error message when trying to import the .vcf file into icloud.com/contacts.
The backstory:
My iphone 15 and ipad air M2 (both devices are using most current IOS) contacts did not match even though both devices were signed onto the same apple account. My iphone had 244 contacts and this was the same as icloud.com./contacts; my ipad had 349 contacts and this was the list I wanted to keep. Using chatgpt as my instructor, we tried various things and eventually could get new contacts to sync between ipad, iphone and icloud.com; changes to existing contacts ended up duplicating cards on the ipad and, when the duplicates were merged the card was deleted from the iphone/icloud. Over 100 contacts from my ipad never made it to the iphone. I ended up exporting my ipad contacts and icloud contacts into .vcf files saved in my downloads file on icloud. In frustration, because I wanted to keep the ipad contacts, I deleted all contacts from icloud.com which deleted all contacts from the iphone, leaving 107 contacts on my ipad. Now, when i go onto icloud.con/contacts and choose to import a vcard, and i get a message "Could not import some contacts. There was a problem importing the contacts. Please try again. "
The current situation:
No contacts are on my iphone or in icloud.com/contacts. Only 107 remain on my ipad. I cannot import the vcf file into the icloud or on my iphone. Is there any way I can get my contacts back and syncing between my devices?
