  • Delete custom labels on iOS8.1

    Hello,
    How can i delete custom labels on iOS 8.1? i found this thread (Delete custom labels in iOS7?) but i couldn't delete them via third party apps like what'sapp and magic app. Maybe they don't support it anymore.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance,
    Vassilis

    The same for me. iPhone 6+ with IOS 8.2.
    I can delete many labels until rest one. If i delete this one the contact app crash. I export all contacts to vcard end tray to find for my label name but nothing is found.

  • Crash when delete custom labels on iOS 8.1

    Hi
    Someone share with me a contact number with many custom labels and I didn't like that. I deleted that number but custom labels still there. So I start to delete them and my problem with the last one of custom label. I can't delete it because when I click on delete the Contats app crash and I find my self on the home page of my iPhone. I tried to add extra custom label then remove the old one but what I delete is the new one. Its like this one is untouchable. I also tried to install many apps that give you options to delete custom labels but all of them didn't help me at all.
    Please advice.
    Best Regards,
    Tariq

  • Can you delete custom labels created in the contact list?

    The subject pretty much sums up my question! Can you do this on the iPhone?

    Not sure what you mean by "Custom Labels in the contact list"
    But to the best of my knowledge nothing that even has to do with the contact list is customizable other than entries you put in

  • Getting rid of custom labels in contacts

    I installed the TrueCaller app, but decided it wasn't for me, so I deleted it again. Now I have a lot of custom labels for phone numbers in the contacts app. I would like to get rid of them again.

    When in an individual contact entry, tap the Edit button in the upper right. Then, tap on the custom label you want to change. Select the label you prefer.
    No, there's no way of doing them all at once.
    You may want to try doing it through whatever program you sync your contacts to. That might be faster.
    Best of luck.

  • Syncing custom labels within contacts

    On my iPhone, I have quite a few contacts with multiple cell phones, and I have created a lot of customer labels. I've also added notes, dates, etc. When I sync to Outlook, it only syncs the first customer label (as "other"), but none of the rest. And it doesn't sync my additional fields. At one time, I lost all my contacts on my phone, and when I resynced from Outlook, all of this info was missing.
    Is there a way to get this info to sync to Outlook? Otherwise, is there another application I can use to sync all of my contact info?
    Thanks.

    Custom Labels are not Alphabetical.
    Same problem with my os7 update, and This is a huge hassle, I re-use labels constantly as I travel for work and
    I have hundreds of labels in my contacts.
    This is a mess.
    The only Good thing I can say is that the 'new' custom label field is finally at the Top of the list of labels.
    It used to be at the bottom, meaning I had to scroll thru many many labels to add a new custom label.
    So they fixed the tiny little problem and gave us a Massive new problem.
    Appple, Please Fix This ASAP.

  • Can't sort custom labels in Contacts

    It used to be that when you added a Custom Lable in Contacts in iOS, it would show a sorted list of the custom labels you already made for your contacts phone numbers etc. so you could see if you've already made a custom label to avoid duplication.  Now in iOS7, you can add a custom label but you have to scroll down the long list of already entered custom labels that seem to appear in no particular order.  It takes a long time if you already have quite a number of custom labels.  It used to be easy when they were sorted to scroll down to the labels in alphabetical order.  What happened to this feature?

  • What happened to custom labels in contacts???

    Prior to loading 4.0.2, I could differentiate between the phone numbers for a given contact by selecting Custom Label and creating a label by name. In this way, multiple mobile phone numbers for a single contact - perhaps a family - could be distinguished by the name the phone number belongs to. With 4.0.2, the ability to create a custom label doesn't appear to be available. Is this functionality gone, or am I doing something wrong.

    Mine is missing also, I went to the Apple store and no body could help me. all my friends still have the custom Label, but I don't.

    Why there is no custom label in contacts

    Its not part of the OS which is down to Windows... Hopefully they will add this option in a later.

  • Deleting custom labels from Address Book (& iPhone !)

    Not sure if this has been covered, but I've got a lot of extrraneous custom labels created in Address Book.
    Does anyone know how to remove the ones not wanted any longer ? Just that the list gets longer and longer each time !
    Shame Apple didn't think to have all labels done with the first letter capitalised - looks much better that way.

    I also migrated from a Treo to an iPhone, and was hoping to have custom field information transfer from my desktop to my iPhone. It would be rather handy when I need help remembering the name of someone's spouse, etc. Has someone created an iPhone app for this perhaps?

  • Printing custom labels from contacts

    How do you print labels with a different header than just the persons name? I would like to address holiday labels to read:
    "The Smith Family"
    123 Cherry St.
    Denver, CO 80210
    Rather than the contact name only:
    "Jane Smith"
    123 Cherry St.
    Denver, CO 80210
    Can I create a field that allows me to put it as the address header rather than having to use the contacts first and last name only?

    Hi gordonprop,
    Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like you want to change the name field on a label. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

  • Adding Custom Labels Missing for Contact Numbers After Upgrading to iOS 8.0 and issue still exists on iOS 8.1

    I noticed that after upgrading to iOS 8.0 on my iPhone 5s, adding custom labels for contact numbers got removed. It still exists on iOS 8.1 as well. Is there someone who is facing a similar issue or can someone help me how to get that back. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Hi Yugendra,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I have good news. You can still choose a custom label in Contacts on iOS 8. The option should be below "Other" in the list of labels when editing a contact. This information is found in the iOS 8 user guide:
    Contacts at a glance - iPhone
    Change a label. If a field has the wrong label, such as Home instead of Work, tap Edit. Then tap the label and choose one from the list, or tap Add Custom Label to create one of your own.
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy
