Default Can't Save a new Contact

Whenever I try and add a new contact on the original Palm Pre (Bell), I get the message saying "Error: There was an error saving this contact. Please Try again" My default account is set to my Palm Profile. Anyone have any ideas what could be wrong?? I tried resyncing my Palm Profile and restarting the phone, I tried uninstalling all my patches, I don't know where else to go from here other than to doctor the phone. I'm running webOS 1.4.5

Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks

I also cannot save any new contacts, getting the same try again message. I have a Sprint Pre.

Default

Try this

1. Launch Contacts
2. Select Menu then Preferences & Accounts
3. Tap entry under “Default Accounts”
4. Change the default account to something other than what is currently selected
5. Change the default account back to what it was previously
6. Back swipe to save the preferences
7. Try saving a new contact
