We present \textit{ab initio} studies for different Ni nanocontacts and show
changes in the conductance of such constrictions due to atomic rearrangements
in the contact. In particular we consider a Ni particle and show that the
magnetoresistance can change from a few to 50% and can even reverse sign as a
function of the contact area formed between the particle and the leads.
