Printing Contacts

How do I copy a contact's address in macOS 26?


Previously, there was a ctl-click option to copy the address, which also copied the name, company and position if they were included in the information. I can highlight and copy the address im OS26, but that omits the name, etc. The print option wants me to print an envelope or label. I have a label printer with its own software. I only want to copy and paste the name and address into it, but I don't see how to do this.

I'm not sure how you did it in previous version of macOS. In macOS 15.7, I can't get the names, company etc. by copying the address. Could you describe the exact steps to do it?


I just created this shortcut for the Shortcuts application: Copy Contact to Clipboard. To use it (after downloading it), right-click a contact in the contact list in Contacts, choose Share > Shortcuts > Copy Contact to Clipboard.


Modify the shortcut to suit your exact needs. This one only copies the first name, last name, title, company and street address.


Note that I only tested it in macOS Sequoia 15.7. (My Mac is not compatible with macOS Tahoe.)
