  I'm trying to get evolution contacts to sync with google contacts.  I can create an address book in evolution and I can get all my google contacts.  I can edit google contacts in evolution and those changes are sync'd with google. I can make changes in google and those changes are sync'd (eventually) with Evolution.  

  I am not able to ADD a new google contact in Evolution.

  I click on New Contact, which brings up the Contact Editor window.  I
  fill in some details (name, email) for a contact, then I click OK. I
  receive an error dialog box that says:

  "Error adding Contact" other error

  The contact is not added and the Contact Editor window remains open.
  I cannot copy contacts from other address books into the Google
  address book or create new contacts.
