iMac Messages now only showing +61 iPhone numbers instead of contact names

My iMac Messages (Version 11.0 (5500) is now only displaying the contact number of my iPhone contacts (with +61 prefix) - BUT will display the contact name of android phone owners who message. I have previously tried re-syncing through iCloud, turning on/off etc but nothing is working yet. Interesting to notice the android phone contacts are the ones to be displaying correctly. Syncing with iMac High Sierra 10.13.6, iPhone SE, iPad Pro & MacBook Air. Any ideas much appreciated. Thanks

Hello skeerc,


Welcome to the Apple Support Communities, and from your post there appears to be an issue with contacts appearing as phone numbers. We'll do what we can to help.


Since it's specific to the iMac, try the steps here to reset the connection from the iMac to iCloud. You can exclude nay steps you've done already: If your iCloud Contacts, Calendars, or Reminders won’t sync


If you're still having issues, it might be best to get a fresh start by restarting your Mac from the Apple () menu then Restart.


Kind regards.
