I am getting, "unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped." after installing Facebook. Normally in the past I would clear "Contact Storage", reset and the problem was solved.

On Android 5.0 and this tablet this doesn't work, I have even removed Facebook and the problem still persist.

I have even went into Recovery and cleared cache but the problem still persist. I haven't even rooted the device, any suggestions?

Try factory resetting. I know its a pain but it may be your only option.
I am hoping to avoid that! I was just throwing it out in case someone has a solution.

Edit: Solution is I had 'Outllook' App Installed, once I removed it and rebooted, The error disappeared. I still can't get Facebook to work, I have a feeling it is the new Gmail, Calendar, Contacts Sync Transport is causing the issue, just have to wait for an update.

I encountered the same problem but uninstalling the outlook.com app didn't help. I also tried all the ideas which seemed to work for android 4.4 and older without success. I even factory resetted my device, but (I assume) after I reinstalled all my apps again, the problem came up again too. The message of the stopped android.process.acore shows up more or less randomly but I can force it when I try to open contacts. First time the problem occurred was after I updated to Lollipop manually and rooted my Nexus 7 (2013). Any other ideas how to get rid of this dreaded problem?

The problem came back, I assume it has something to do with the new gmail, contacts and calendar apps? I have to keep deleting apps that show up under Accounts until I can load Contacts app without error message showing up again.

After a factory reset and upgrade to Android 5.0.1 the bug or whatever, seems to be gone. Maybe just the update will help too?

5.1 solves this issue! Got the update on my Nexus 7 2013, no more error message. I returned the N9, but will repurchase now that 5.1 seems stable.
