I updated iOS 7 and my contacts were ok then they suddenly disappeared a few weeks after updating. I have no idea if it has anything to do with iOS 7 but when I email someone the contacts are there. When I open the app they are gone. What happened?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

HT201401 My iphone contact list has changed and it keeps deleting my contacts. could icloud be the problem?

My iphone contact list has changed and it keeps deleting my contacts. could icloud be the problem?

Are you sharing the iCloud account with someone else?

When sending email messages from iPhone,iMac, or iPad, email address automatically added to my contacts list on iPhone. How do I trace this down and stop this auto addition of email addresses to my contacts list?

I am not sure what generates the email address as a contact, be it the iPhone or iMac. I use iCloud to sync up my contacts/address book. This appears to happen when I am using Mac Mail on my iMac, but I have no clue where to begin to look to stop this auto addition. I have looked in Mail preferences on my iMac and in my iPhone settings, but have found nothing that "automatically add email address to contacts list".
Can anyone provide guidance? Web search has been fruitless ( I am guessing I am not using the right key words for my search).

Hey jpoolewarren!
You can delete contacts by following the instructions in this link:
Contacts at a glance - iPhone
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph3e0ca2db
Delete a contact. Go to the contact’s card, then tap Edit. Scroll down, then tap Delete Contact.

I have exactly the same problem on my ipad. It is happening on only some contacts but, as with you, when I delete one of the contacts on the ipad, the second ipad contact and the contact on the imac are also deleted. This is even the case when I have differentiated the two contacts on the ipad and can see the one I have deleted on the ipad is not the same one as is then deleted on the imac.

I have typed in email addresses into Contacts, but when I try to do an email, most of them have an exclamation mark and won't let me send! Where am I going wrong ? It is really sapping my confidence!

Did you set up your email account info in Settings?
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar > Accounts > your account should be listed in there with the appropriate incoming and outgoing mail servers and correct user names and passwords.

My icloud emails arent arriving most of the time and a few days ago my iphone and ipad started showing "Can't Get Mail" box. This has not happened before since I set up the iclud email address with the purchase of my ipad about a month ago.

That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it...

Multiple Email Address per contact

I have more than one email address for many of my contacts. I do I compose an email to all of the contact's emails?

Each email address for the contact must be entered separately in the To: field. When typing in the first couple of letters of the contact's name, the autofill feature should pull up each email address for a contact with multiple email addresses.
If a contact with several email addresses is included in a Group mailing list and you want to include all email addresses for a particular contact when addressing a message to the Group, the contact must be listed or duplicated in the Group multiple times - one for each email address. This can be done by copy/paste of the contact within the Group.
Edit the Group Mailing list selecting a different email address for each multiple contact in the Group.

Choosing an email address on contacts with multiple addresses

Has anyone found a way, using Siri, to choose which email address to send to when a contact has multiple addresses? She asks which address would you like me to send the message to and I have found no way to verbally choose and address.

You cannot rename the labels in Outlook except by modifying the Contact form. Which, as a developer, I can do. However, my fear is that it won't be pushed to the iPhone since they already have unique identifiers now and they are only showing up on the iPhone as "email". While it may be that Exchange only labels them as email Android devices equate E-mail to Business Email and E-mail 2 as Home Email by default.
Maybe the next iterration of Siri will allows us to chose first, second, or third.
Thanks for trying!

Addressbook imports only one email address per contact

I am importing a few of my contacts from Outlook to Addressbook.
In my Outlook, these contacts have multiple email addresses (email1, email2, etc)
The exported vCard file also contains all those email addresses.
But when I import them to Addressbook, it seems to accept only the first email address and rest don't appear anywhere.
How do I fix this issue? Is there any setting somewhere that prevents multiple email addresses from being imported into a contact?

ICal: You must add your own card and email address in Contacts to be able to use mail alerts.

Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work.

If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal.
