    Spinner in People


    Solved problem:
    Spinner in People app (Win 10) said it was syncing 1 account, and ran forever. I was logged in as local account. I logged out and logged in to MS account (went through many steps to do so), re-opened People, spinner ran for about 10 secs, stopped, announced "1 account synced." Logged out and back in to local account, re-opened People, and the spinner was gone. I guess the syncing from GMail contacts to Win 10 People can only take place through MS account. So it seems. Annoying.
