Delete Multiple Contacts at Once - Exchange Server

I sync only with Exchange Server at work and have private, department & corporate contacts. In some cases one contact can be in all three classifications so I end up with the same contact 3 times on my iphone. Is there a want to mark duplicates for mass removal in lieu of deleting one contact at a time? Or at the very least deleting without having to actually open each contact?

Not on the phone, but you can from a contact management program (such as Outlook) or from icloud.com if you are syncing your contacts with iCloud.

    I have exactly the same problem!  I have Outlook 2010 and it does the same thing with my contacts, and calender enteries!! Really frustrating

  • What is a quick way to delete multiple contacts at once?

    I already backed up my contacts but have over 100 contacts that I no longer need.  I know how to delete a contact one at a time, but I would like to delete multiple contacts at once.  How do I do this?

    Have you tried Automator?

  • Trying to delete multiple contacts at once on iPhone

    I wanted a large (~200) subset of my contacts (within Outlook) to be added to my iPhone, so I used the iTunes Contact Sync to get all of my contacts there (rather than type in 200 with the iPhone keyboard, which leaves something to be desired). Now I have all of my contacts on the iPhone, but only want the 200 or so.
    Is there an easy way to select a group or multiple contacts and mark them for deletion? Right now it appears as if I need to go through one by one, which will NOT work for me.
    thanks.

    There is no such option with the iPhone.

  • Delete multiple contacts at once

    I haven't been able to find a way t delete more than one contact at a time. Deleting them individually is way too long since I have a lot to get rid of. Can someone tell me how to go about this?

    Download the free app called My Contacts Backup. The app will allow an easy way to wipe out all of the contacts on the device. This feature is accessed by scrolling all the way down on the main app screen. Note that this does NOT allow you to select multiple contacts to delete but rather only allows you to delete the ENTIRE contacts list. There may be other contacts apps in the App Store that will allow you to select which you want to delete but I have no experience nor can comment on which apps those are.
    As you've found, iOS's Contacts app does NOT allow you to bulk-delete contacts. You need to use an additional app.

  • Delete multiple emails at once on iPhone 5s - any fix?

    I have alot of emails which "appeared" in my inbox.  Not sure if because it's sinced to my home email account which also has alot of emails in the inbox of the server.  But my main question is how to delete multiple emails at once. I've read "work arounds" on using the select, move button, unselect and then the trash button.  Seems to do what it is supposed to do, however when I go back to my mailboxes, the messages didn't get moved to the trash and are still showing up where they originally were.  Any ideas on a real fix out there?
    Thanks,
    Olmbre

    No, there is no way to delete all emails in one step. Of course, you can select multiple emails individually and delete them as a group.

  • How do I delete multiple items at once instead of one at a time?

    How do I delete multiple items at once instead of one at a time? I have several duplicate items in my library and would like to delete the duplicates. Thanks!

    You can select multiple items using shift to select a range and control to add or remove items from it.
    Regarding duplciates, Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group of identical tracks to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin. This can happen, for example, if you start iTunes with a disconnected external drive, then connect it, reimport from your media folder, then restart iTunes.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background. Please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping, whether you do so by hand or using my script, in case something goes wrong.

  • How can I delete multiple photos at once from the official Photos app?

    Dear fellow Apple users,
    I have many pictures on my Camera Roll in Apple's Photos app. What's the quickest way to delete multiple photos at once?
    Thus far, I know how to delete photos one by one, but that's time-consuming.
    Thank you.

  • How to delete multiple contacts in iphone 5s

    Is there an easy way to delet multiple contacts on iphone 5s annd 5c. I can delete them one at a time, but wondered if theres a way to do some of them but not all.

    No, there's no mass delete or partial mass delete option.
    If these are iCloud based contacts, you may find it easier to go to www.icloud.com and delete them there.
