Delete contacts from icloud, but not from iphone

I want to delete all my contacts and calendar appointments from iCloud, but not from my iphone, and i still want to have iCloud turned on in the future.
I have tried to delete the iCloud account from my iphone but when i log in to iCloud.com from a computer the contacts are still there even though i deleted the iCloud account.
How do i remove these things only from iCloud?

I fixed it, i had to turn off the syncing of the contacts and the calendar on the phone and then delete them from iCloud. Obviously if i turn on the syncing of these items again the contacts and calendar appointments will reappear in iCloud.
So problem solved.

  • Delete Apps from MacBook but not from iPhone

    How can I delete Apps from iTunes but not from iPhone 3GS when I Sync them? The moment I delete the Apps from iTunes and then sync iPhone, iPhone deletes them as well.
    Please assist.

    If you intend to ever sync your phone with your Macbook then you can't delete the app from your Macbook, otherwise the apps will also delete from your iPhone (as you've discovered).

  • Want to delete mails from Thunderbird but not from the server?

    Hi,
    Please tell me how to configure the settings of Thunderbird so that if i delete any mail from Thunderbird that mail would be delete only from Thunderbird not from server. I'm using IMAP configuration for all my mail accounts and I'm using Thunderbird in my laptop and tablet both.
    Currently i'm using Thunderbird 24.4.0 and i just want to delete my useless mails from Thunderbird but not from the server without using pop-3 settings.
    Actually the reason for this Question arises because whenever i use to uninstall and reinstatement Thunderbird, i use to take "profiles" as a back up and its size is increasing day by day that is making a big issue to me as i cant take a back up of such a big size file.

    Imap mail accounts keep the emails on the server and you see a remote view of those emails and folders.
    When you subscribe to see a folder, the headers are downloaded, when you select an email to read, the entire folder is downloaded to a temp cache facilitating quicker access. If you synchronize folders, then a copy of that folder is downloaded to an mbox file in your profile, so that you have a copy of the server folder. When you make any changes to a synchronized folder, read an email, delete or move etc, then Thunderbird will resynchronize with the server to update the server. A synchronized folder allows you to work in 'offline' mode and this is the best time to perform a backup as you know there is a temporary stop on synchronizing as you are offline. They will resynchronize when you go back into 'online' mode.
    So, with IMAP mail accounts, the folders you see in Thunderbird are the same folders on the webmail server. If you make any changes via Thunderbird or webmail then you are changing the same folder. You cannot delete an email without deleting it from the server, they are one and the same.
    What you can do is move/copy an email into Local Folders and delete the one on the server. The Local Folders emails are kept in your Profile on your computer, these folders/emails are not on the server, unless you chose to keep a copy of them on the server.
    Pop mail accounts cannot see the folders on the server. They only access the server Inbox folder and download emails not previously downloaded to the mail account Inbox in Thunderbird. These emails are kept on your computer in your profile folder. You can select to keep a copy on the server or not. You can choose to delete emails off your computer and off the server or not.
    If the mail account is gmail , have you subscribed or even synchronized to see the 'All Mail' folder ? Gmail's all Mail folder is their Archive folder, it keeps a copy of all of your non-deleted emails. So, you do not need to subscribe to see this folder as it only shows you what you can already see in other folders. It doubles the disc space.
    Please read section on 'All Mail' at this link.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Using_Gmail_with_Thunderbird_and_Mozilla_Suite
    You do not have to download/synchronize the entire folder. You could select to only synchronize the most recent xx days of emails.

  • I would like to delete apps from itunes but not from my iphone

    Hi,
    I own an iPhone 5S with iTunes 11 on a Windows PC.
    I can not see any reason why I would want to waste gigs of my hard drive on iphone apps, which I cannot run on my computer and which I can install from the cloud using the app store on my iPhone.
    Is there any way to delete all the apps stored on my PC, without it affecting the apps store on my iPhone. Essentially I'd like to free up some hard drive space by deleting them ALL from my PC, but keep my iPhone as it is. I'd obviously like it to sync my iPhone, but ignore all apps.
    What would happen if I just delete them all from iTunes on my PC?
    Thanks
    Matt

    You cannot delete IOS, without IOS (iPhone operating system) your iPhone cannot function.

  • I need to restore my Ipad from the iCloud, but not from the latest backup.  Can I restore from a previous date?  If so How?

    I went yesterday to the Albany, NY apple store genius bar with a sound issue on the Ipad.  After 2 hours the "genius" told me that
    they tried wiping my  Ipad clean, but not to worry that first everything was saved in the cloud.  I was told I had to reload all
    purchased Apps and would be no charge and would take some time.  Due to the late hour I said I'd do it at home.  I did not do
    it last night.  This morning I open the Ipad  to find nothing in it....no contacts,  no notes....nothing.  I rushed back to the apple
    store and was told that apparently last night a backup took place and the Icloud backed up a clean Ipad....no info.  This is a
    huge problem.  Apple personel simply said sorry that the "genius" should have known better.   Attempts to restore seems to
    only go back to the last backup which of course is blank.  Now my question is .....is it possible somehow with the cloud from a
    previous date like you can with  a PC?

  • Why does dialing *100# (to check prepaid account balance) work from dialer but not from contacts?

    Hello,
    to check my prepaid account balance, I can dial *100# and my carrier sends me back a message with the balance information. I used to save this number under my contacts in my "feature phone" and it worked great.
    With the ZTE Open from Movistar (Spain), dialing the number from the dialer works, I get the requested message. However, when I save this number under my contacts and I dial it from there, I don't get the requested message.
    From the dialer, it doesn't really dial but sends information to the carrier which sends information back. From within the contacts, it seems to be treated as a phone number which is not recognized, and I get some sort of busy tone back.
    Can this be settled in some way? This would be very convenient! I guess this is true for the complete target group of FFOS.
    Cheers

    Going through contacts would probably take just as long as Dialing, But in this case i think it is to do with your Service Provider not the phone itself.
    Remember Mozilla only make the OS it is probably your Provider that is making it do that.

  • Can't find the set up ipad    Need to reboot the system and recover from icloud but not sure how to do this

    Not certain how to reboot the ipad.   Had some instructions but alas stumped on set up.   I have backed up in ICloud but need to get to a "set up"process

    You restore from an iCloud  backup on the iPad itself. You have to reset the iPad in the settings app. Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings. You will then be starting from the beginning - you will be setting the iPad up all over again.
    This article explains how to do it.

  • Can only watch videos from YouTube, but not from other websites.

    I can only watch videos from youtube, but certain websites such as dailymotion.com , videos.sapo.pt, etc, the flash video does not load up. I´ve tried updating my video drivers, installing older versions of Adobe flash, but nothing has worked so far. Has anyone has this problem? IShould I be messing with the flash global settings?
    Thanks.

    Hi, You may want to check the system requirements for the other sites. If you can watch videos on Youtube, then you must have Flash Player Installed properly.
    Sometimes certain websites don't support or are late in supporting the latest version of Flash Player (10.1.102.64), so you might want to contact the websites on that.
    You can use this link for setting and see if that makes a difference. Normally you would get a popup from the website to ask for this, but that would depend on how you have the Global Settings Panels set up.

    Edited by: Svenmeister on Apr 16, 2010 7:22 AM

    Ok, I updated my Mac but still got the 1.5.0_22 crap so I changed the function from the mouseEvent to one that 1.5 supports.
    But now when I run the application from the console the Exception about the mouse function is gone, but I got another exception instead of it. And this one is I believe not JRE version relevant.
    The error is in the loading of the images, at the third PNG image to be precise. The images are now in total 10.8MB in size.
    So is this also a 1.6 thing? Would be awesome if someone can explain it.
