Hi,

I migrated from my old 2014 to the new 2020 iMac using the migration assistant. This went well with only very few minor glitches.

One thing I can not figure out is the iCloud Profile Picture in the iCloud settings. It is shown on all my Macs, the iPhone and the iPad but not on my new iMac.

Interestingly the picture is shown in the contacts app when I view my contacts information. I tried to edit and save it in the contacts app, but this did not change anything. I do not have the picture available elsewhere (backups, I know...) and there seems no way to export it, so I can not (re) set it in the iCloud settings of the iMac.

Is there any way I can force the iMac to show the profile picture from my iCloud account?

Surly this is not the greatest problem on earth, but it annoys me...

Thanks for your help!

Alwis
 
Give it some time, I noticed when changing profile picture the change is not always instantaneous across devices
