Contacts are added to just one account in Contacts app

Whatever contact I select in my Mail app to be added to Contacts (using Mail interface) they end up being in All Yahoo section though all of newly added ones belong to my Gmail. What would you recommend to do (1) to move already added to Gmail (2) to move selected contacts to the account they belong to in the future?
Hope to hearing from you soon

Have you set the iCloud account as the default account yet? Sounds like you have not.
Contacts>Preferences>General. Choose the account you want new contacts to be in and select it.

Can I have just ONE account in Contacts that syncs with my iPhone?

I quickly add a new contact when I'm at my computer right from a new email. I reply, "I'll call you when I get there" and I race out the door.
Ooops.
Mountain Lion put my new contact into the "ON MY MAC" account. It did not sync with my iPhone because it's not in my iCloud account.
Really?
Why would I not want that on my phone? Why does Apple make this so difficult?
Is there a way to totally get rid of the ON MY MAC contacts, and just have ONE account that syncs? Without me having to check and double check my contacts all the time?
I'm about ready to buy a paper and pen address book so I'll KNOW when it's working or not.
Sorry about the rant and the attitude, but it's really frustrating to lose a potential client to something this basic.
I also have a Dot Mac account that then became Mobile Me and now I'm not sure what it is, but I had to create an iCloud account (and a new iCloud email address) just to make my Notes sync up. So I don't know if all that is exacerbating the problem or not.
But ONE Contacts account that syncs reliably without me having to police it constantly would be nice.

How to use just one account in the domain to login to the right server having access to the right resources. Even when a user works on 4 different sites ...

We have one domain with about 36 sites. On the sites we use (2008R2 / 2012R2) RODC's .
All workstations have Windows 7.
Some users work on several sites. We want the user to just be able to use one account and the environment to see on which site the user logs in, so the right script can be loaded and the appropiate resources like data and printers are available.
We have several users working on 4 sites (different schools) doing their work fot that specific site overthere.
I want the system to see where a user logs in (can be on IP address), so we can give the users just one account that will work as it should.
I like to get some ideas or advise on how to get it done.
Thanks,
Ben.

Use Group Policy Objects and link them to your sites as appropriate...

Syncing just one 'group' of contacts from Address Book

I've just bought a 3GS iPhone and have transferred the contact numbers from my SIM card to the iPhone.
However, I use Address Book on both a MacBook and an iMac - the entries in these are not always identical. Is it possible for me to 'sync' just one group of contacts from the Address Book on my MacBook to my iPhone and then another group of contacts from my iMac to the iPhone? If any of these contacts have partial details transferred from my old SIM card will that mean I have duplicates or does the iPhone recognise that the SIM has only transferred, say, one contact number and will then go ahead and complete details for email address and home address?
Sorry if this is a very basic question but I don't want to end up with lots of duplicate entries and couldn't find the answer elsewhere
Cheers

Yes, true for iPhoto as well. Note that even though the iTunes content is the same, you will want to turn off syncing of media on one of the computers. The restriction of syncing to one library means that even if the libraries have the same content, every time you sync to the other computer, all of the iPhone content will be erased and replaced (with the same content, but it will take quite some time if the amount of content is significant).

I have three iPads and one iPod and one iPhone. How can I message between them without sending the message to all of them. You send the message to your email address but all of them are set up und one account.

You can have a different receiving email in the Messages app on each device : Settings > Messages > Receive At . I'm not sure that there is a different way to have the message only go to one device.

In Mail, is it possible to extract email addresses of senders from just one account inbox?

Click on the arrow next to the number of emails in the conversation. That'll show you each separate email. You can create a new mailbox (call it what you want) and drag that email out of the conversation into that mailbox.

I have an iTunes account with music. My wife has an iTunes account with apps. How do I get both on our iPad2? Without syncing to just one account?

I have an iTunes with music and videos. My wife has an iPhone with music and apps. How do I get both on our iPad2?
Without syncing to just one account?
We each have our own laptops.

Hmm.
Probably easier for me to put all my stuff on my wife's computer I suppose.
Rebuilding all those iTunes playlists is not very fun though.
And of course anything new that I want on my laptop I will have to duplicate on her laptop in the future.
Not sure how iCloud works just yet.
So you can't have two laptops and manually sync both people's stuff to one iPad?

Have your husband text the word "stop" to 48369. This should take his number out of the iMessage system.
Go into your settings under messaging and make sure the box to send as an SMS if iMessage is unavailable is checked.
Hopefully this will get your messages sending/receiving to each other.

Post in your native language, the above makes no sense.

Why cant i use a bought call-tone bought through I-tones for calling tones for just one of my contacts?

What makes you believe that you can't? To set a custom ringtone (or SMS tone) for a contact, go to that contact entry, tap the Edit button in the upper right. You can then edit both ringtones and SMS tones for that contact.

TS4147 My Contacts are coming from my ICloud Account. I want it to come from my GMAil Account. I can remove it from ICloud, but Contacts isn't an option under GMAIL. What can I do?

If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Im having problems with contacts on my iPad. One of my contacts names shows up when I choose any one of 36 contacts. the email goes to the correct email address that I've chosen but the incorrect name shows up in the To: area of the email

I'm having problems with contacts on my iPad. One of my contacts names shows up when I choose any one of 36 contacts. the email goes to the correct email address that I've chosen but the incorrect name shows up in the To: area of the email. Has anyone else experienced this...if so I hope there is a fix

Hello there erika274,
It sounds like no matter what contact you put into the 'To' field, a different name appears, but the email makes it to the intended recipient. I would recommend a few things here. First, close all the open apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the phone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:
iOS: How to back up and restore your content

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Complaints, leads and contacts are not shown in the account overview

CRM 5.0, ICWebClient
Hi,
in ICWebClient (SAP Standard) there are two account overviews available. The second one provides an overview of complaints, campaigns, orders, leads and contacts related to a specific customer. Although there are several leads, complaints, orders and contacts related to a specific customer existing only complaints are shown in the overview table. The tables related to leads, orders and contacts are empty.
Regards,
AV

hi!
well i had the same "problem" but have you checked the format in which you saved your numbers. for example as you said you are using t-mobile austria whenever you save a number as 0699xxxxxxxx the iPhone usually wont show the caller id.
what usually helps is when you always use the international-format
for example if its an austrian number 0043 699 xxxxxxxx
Or for a vienna-landline 0043 1 xxxxxxxx
and so on and so forth. just try it with one or two contacts and see if that is solving your problem. it solved that problem for me and also somebody else.
(by the way: im using t-mobile austria as well. but originally teh same happened to me with any other simcard i tried)
hope that was of some help for you
all the best und grüße aus dem 16ten

I have a nano, 2 ipods, ipad, and ipad2. I want to have just one account and one itunes. I would like to combine all of them and not have to have all different accounts, is there a way to do this. I

I would like to have just one itunes account. Is there anyway to do that? Right now I have too many accounts and all on different computers. I would like to combine them and just have one place for all my music, books, movies and games. I would need a step by step easy to understand method. Help!!! One Library to rule them all. Lol

I see what your problem is. You are physically connected the devices. It would be better if the information was in iCloud. Then they all would sync instantly.

Is it possible to sync multiple accounts to just one account?

I have 2 accounts and one of them I have all my songs on but i can't seem to buy anymore songs from there because, whenever i try to buy my songs it say answer security questions. I have tried many times to reset them but apple doesn't send me the reset email so i can't buy anything from that account but thats where all my songs are. Then i have my second account it works perfectly and I wonder is it possible to put those to accounts in one good account? Please help.

No, you can't merge accounts nor transfer content from one account to another account - content will remain tied to the account that downloaded it.
If you aren't receiving the reset email to your rescue email account (you've checked the spam folder as well as the inbox on that account ?) then contact Support in your country, they should be able to reset them.
Contacting Apple about account security : Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security
If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
When they've been reset check that you've spelt your rescue email address correctly (and if necessary change it) for potential future use : Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses
Or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : Frequently asked questions about two-step verification for Apple ID
