Deleting duplicates in the verizon cloud contacts

I need to send contacts to new razr replacement due to damage. How do I eliminate the duplicates in the cloud?

It is pretty easy. Restore all of the contacts to your phone. Change the contact storage to google. Log into Gmail and you can either merge or eliminate duplicates, leave your phone set to sync to google and never worry about it again.
with Verizon BUA or Cloud, you will run the risk of not all of your contacts being synced and or backed up to numbers within being mixed up to duplicates and triplicates. Before you do anything though make sure they are actually duplicates as BUA/Cloud has a habit of making 3 contact entries for people with 3 numbers

Can i get my contacts online from the verizon cloud??? phone broken

how can i get my contacts from the verizon cloud online??

Hey there zututu,
I'm glad to hear that you are using the Verizon Cloud to back up your contacts. It is a great way to make sure that you have your contacts saved in case you ever switch devices.
Are you just trying to view your contacts online? Are you trying to transfer your contacts from the cloud to your device? Do you have the Verizon Cloud application downloaded to your computer?
Please provide additional details so I can better assist.

Does my iPhone's Back-Up Assist conflict with the Verizon Cloud?

I just got my first iPhone 5C through Verizon. When I transferred my contacts from my old LG phone through Verizon, I found that I had multiple entries for each contact. Since I have three Yahoo Email accounts, I assumed that was the cause. I called Verizon and asked if I backed up my contacts from my new iPhone would that supersede the contact list that was on the Verizon website. They couldn't give me a clear answer.
So, my questions are:
1. What is the iPhone's Back Up Assist?
2. Does the Back Up Assist serve the same function as the Verizon Cloud? (If so, am I better off using Back Up Assist or the Verizon Cloud…or both?)
3. I don't want to back up anything on the iCloud, so how do I make sure I'm not doing that?
As you can see, I am a complete neophyte at this, so please be patient and understanding.
Many thanks for your input.

As Chris CA, noted Backup Assistant and Verizon Cloud are both Verizon apps. Backup Assistant is older software and has largely been replaced by Verizon Cloud which will back up more categories of data. They are both cloud based back up services. You should not try to use both. That can result in the type of duplicates you're seeing. If you want to use a Verizon provided back up option, go with Verizon Cloud. It's advantage over iCloud is that, should you ever change to another platform (e.g. Android) on Verizon's network, your data will be easily accessible. It is not, however, as well integrated into the OS as iCloud.
If you do not want to use any type cloud back up, don't use Backup Assistant, Verizon Cloud or iCloud. You can delete both Backup Assistant and Verizon Cloud from the phone. iCloud is built in. You can turn off all the back up/sync options under Settings>iCloud. I would recommend leaving Find My iPhone turned on, though.

Verizon Cloud contacts

I have saved my contacts using the verizon cloud. This morning I deleted my email from my Iphone 5 and now my contacts are gone as well. How do I upload my contacts from verizon cloud?

Open the Verizon Cloud app and there should be a menu option to RESTORE

Verizon Cloud Contacts Issue

I have photos, video, and contacts in my Verizon Cloud account. The photos and videos updated onto my new iPhone 5c, but the contacts did not. I can only access them through the Verizon Cloud app. How can I get the contacts to appear in my Contact folder on my phone?

Hi casy6!
I want to ensure you're able to get your contacts on your new iPhone 5c. You will need to install the Backup Assistant application for your new device http://vz.to/1i51t4A. Have you installed the Backup Assistant application onto your previous device and had it synced your contacts prior to activating your new device? If so, once you install the application, it will prompt you to enter your Backup Assistant PIN and it will then restore your contacts to your new device. Let me know how this works out for you. Thanks!

How can I identify and delete duplicates on the latest version of itunes?

How can I identify and delete duplicates on the lastest version of iTunes?

The show duplicates/show exact duplicates features have been left out of iTunes 11. Rumor suggests they will be restored in the next build. In the meantime I have written two Windows scripts to make playlists of Duplicates and Exact Duplicates, either from a selection of tracks or the entire library. Note that, as with the iTunes feature, this list makes no distinction between "originals" and "dupes", you have to decide which is which.
There is also my DeDuper script for automatically removing duplicate copies but keeping one remaining copy of each set. This can preserve ratings, play counts, playlist membership, etc. which are lost in a manual clean up. Please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping. See this thread for background on deduping and the script.
If you want to manually remove duplicate tracks use shift-delete to remove selected tracks from the library as well as the playlist. Keep one of each repeated group of files and don't send the others to the recycle bin unless you are sure that there are multiple files on the disc as opposed to multiple entries to the same file. Same advice to backup applies.

Is it possible to set my IPhone 5S to automatically backup to the Verizon cloud or to backup assistant. The only settings I see is where it will remind me to do. Can it be set to automatically do this, like my Droid did.

We want your information backed up as easily as possible, Todd536. With Verizon Cloud, you can not only tell the application when to back up automatically, but what you want backed up each time. Visit http://bit.ly/1f5sO4P for all the steps to manage your Verizon Cloud on your iPhone.

How do i delete the verizon cloud that installed itself and won't work on my Q10?

Verizon pushed down software updates and installed Verizon cloud which I find out is not supported for my phone. now I need to delete the junk and get my backup plus restored.
Any ideas?
mike

it is beginning to look let a few newer phone will come that way.. environmental issues reasons ? ? maybe ...
I am wondering about that to.. and would take into consideration of the amount of data and usage one does use .. if high I would worry about the unit getting to warmer and draining the cell in battery.. I tried to walk another user through one .. they could not get the phone to keep a charge .. thankful they were at the end of contract and took it in and traded up..
and on the backup assistant .. if I go to my apps either under Verizon the app store or the maker's section and in the search just type backup.. there are a good handful of apps.. are you looking to back up every thing or just certain items..

How to import Verizon Cloud contacts to new iPhone 6

My HTC DNA battery quit working and would no longer boot up. Luckily I had my contacts backed up to Verizon Cloud. I just purchased a new iPhone 6, however, my contacts will not import to the new IPhone 6. What am I doing wrong? It doesn't give me the option of "restoring" contacts, only restore media to the new phone.

wow thats a hard one. Not that many people have that phone. I would probably say go to store and let them try it on the machine. Since its such an old phone its going to be hard. If you synk with outlook tho I am sure you can do it.

Why doesn't the Verizon Cloud app finish loading onto my iPhone 6?

Th

I was on the phone for over an hour yesterday with two different techs. My DH & I each have new iPhone 6's. I was able to load his Verizon Cloud app and update his contacts list. My phone had the app also, but the setup was stuck on #2, asking my to input a viable email address for Verizon notices. I continued to get the message "Something went wrong, call this number". We tried resetting the phone, uninstalling and reinstalling the app, to no avail. The last tech wrote up a ticket on my problem and said that he would probably have an answer and be able to call me back before he left at 5:30 pm. I didn't hear from him last night, so I uninstalled the app and reset my phone. This morning I reinstalled the app, but it never got to the point where the "open" box appears and there was a black app that either said "waiting", or had a white circle that stopped about 60% through and never finished. I wasn't able to remove it either, until I connected the phone to my computer and removed it through iTunes. A few minutes ago, I held down the power button until the "slide to shutdown" appeared, shut it off, waited a few minutes and turned it back on again. This time, the app installed, but I'm now stuck on #1 in the setup with the "Performing a quick scan, please wait" message that has been spinning for 20 minutes.
mrhelper, I'm using the app to load all of my Verizon contacts. If you know of another way to do this, I'm all ears. BTW, when I go into the VC on my computer and try to change a contact, all I've been able to get is the "loading" message, so I'm not having any luck with it at all. The tech still hasn't called back, so I'm wondering if it's a problem that a lot of people are having.

For the past five weeks, iCloud has not recognized my automatically downloaded song purchases as songs within iCloud. After the songs download, they appear with the ominous striked out cloud next to a duplicate with the download cloud.

For the past five weeks, iCloud has not recognized my automatically downloaded song purchases as songs within iCloud. After the songs download, they appear with the ominous striked out cloud next to a duplicate song with download cloud. To get a fully functional song library that I can use to iCloud playlists and use all the other wonderful features of iCloud, I have to delete the automatic downloads and download the new version by clicking on the iCloud download icon. This is tedious. I have considered just turning off automatic downloads, but I rely heavily on my television shows downloading while I'm asleep and being ready to watch when I wake up.
If anyone has a solution, I would greatly appreciate your help. I'm sure I did something to goof it up.
Thanks,
John

Hi,
I'm receiving the information that "No backups available.", but if i log in my icloud I find the backup.
What can I do?

Verizon Cloud Contacts Backup

If I delete contacts on my phone that are backed up to the cloud will it delete them from the cloud?
I don't want the numbers stored on my phone anymore but would like to be able to retrieve them in the future if I change my mind.

I understand your desire to keep a copy of certain contacts online and not on your phone brilpitch! The cloud gets updated everytime you sync your device with it. If you want to keep a copy different than what is on your phone, I recommend creating a file with the contacts currently listed and save it to your hard drive.

How do I delete duplicates in the library?

Although iPhoto does ask you about duplicates when importing from the camera, sometimes duplicates occur anyway. Because of recent problems with my library there are no many duplicates in my recovered and restored library. Is there an easy way to search out and delete duplicate photos once they are in the library?
The version is actually iphoto '09

I had a library on both desk top and lap top but kept them separate. Somehow the one on the lap top got messed up so I have been trying to be sure I didn't lose photos by going back to various folders where I had kept some and importing them into the library on the desk top, However, I think the dates got messed up on some and for some reason on the imports iPhoto did not catch all the duplications. I did not intentionally at least import one library into another.
So I will try Duplicate Annihaliator. I assume it is relatively safe to use.
Thanks

I have 8000 photos in my iPhoto library. Many are duplicated in the "Pictures" folder in the Finder. Is there an easy way to detect and delete duplicates in the "Pictures" folder?

Anyone know how to detect and delete duplicate photo files that exist in the Pictures folder in the Finder that are also in the iPhoto library?

There's no way to compare the photos in the library with those outside the library. However, as long as you're running a "managed" library
You can import batches of the photos, i.e by folder, into the library. If the photo is already in the library you will be given this notice:
Check that checkbox and clik on the Don't Import button. When that folder is finished importing (or not) delete it and go to the next.
If you need to check for duplicates in the library you can use one of these applications to identify and remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free
Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when an iPhoto 8 or earlier library has been imported into another.
PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
DeCloner - $19.95 - can find dupicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.
