Does Facebook integration in iOS6 replace my contact pictures? Cause i don't want that!

That's pretty much it. I'd like to connect to Facebook, but I wanna keep the pictures I have for people, not their Facebook profil pictures.

It does not, it creates another contact entry with the FB data. You can then switch viewing that off or on under contacts/groups.
However, updated photos do not sync to icloud - at least not for me - so even they can be used to replace the photo in contacts on the phone they do not show up in icloud. Although I'd like to have that feature.

    Go settings, and in the app for facebook you can uncheck the contacts sync. Same for email, go to mail in settings, and go into the address you dont want to sync. Unsync.

    This happens with you are both syncing data such as contacts on your devices with the same iCloud account.  This will result in the data being merged and synced back to all connected devices.  To correct this you need to have different iCloud accounts on each device.
    To do this, on the device that will be changing iCloud accounts go to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone.  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from the phone, not from iCloud, so the other phone won't be effected by this.)  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different ID, then turn data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to your new account.  At this point you will have two separate iCloud accounts on each phone with identical data.
    Next, you'll have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and delete the unwanted data (for example, deleting her contacts from your iCloud account and vice versa).  These changes will be reflected on each device and things should now be fixed.

    Hi Bruce,
    I'm getting closer. I actually tried a variety of  expressions, such as "== null" and yours, but the problem persists.
    I am settling on the following, but there is a hangup related to the field that is being looked at for the condition that I will explain in a minute. Here's the script:
    if 
    (ViolationsTable.ViolCorrSection.ViolationsText.DebitVal.isNull || ViolationsTable.ViolCorrSection.ViolationsText.DebitVal.rawValue.length == 0)
    ViolationsTable.ViolCorrSection.instanceManager.removeInstance(parent.parent.index);
    else
    app.alert ("Warning Statement);
    ViolationsTable.ViolCorrSection.instanceManager.removeInstance(parent.parent.index);
    What happens is that, no matter which row in my table I'm in when I click the remove instance button, the script is always looking to the DebitVal field in the first row of the table. So, if the first row is empty, the message box won't appear for the removal of any row in my table. If the first row has a value in DebitVal, then the deletion of any row in the table will trigger the message box.
    I need a way to specify the script to look at the DebitVal field in the row that I am clicking in, without messing up the remove instance command.
    Ideas?

  • Whenever I open iCloud it "checks" Contact automatically and I don't want it to store Contacts.

    Whenever I open iCloud it "checks" Contact automatically and uploads Contacts and I don't want it to. How do I get it to open with no selections?
    Regards, Jim Easton

    Go to System Preferences>iCloud and uncheck 'Contacts'.  Note that since the contacts are kept on the server they will disappear from your Mac, so you will need to download them. So you need to follow the following procedure:
    1. Go to icloud.com, the contacts page. Select the top contact, then shift click on the bottom contact to select all. Click the cogwheel icon and choose 'Export vCard'. Save this on the Desktop.
    2. Go to System Preferences>iCloud and uncheck 'Contacts'. Your contacts will disappear from your Mac (but not from the server).
    3. Go to Contacts on your Mac and choose 'Import' from the file menu. Select the vCard file you exported from iCloud.

  • Facebook and twitter friends in my contacts?

    Hi
    For some reason I can see my facebook and twitter friends in my contacts list.
    I don't want to see them there and i cannot find an option for this not to happen.
    Help?
    Thanks.

    Hi From what I have been reading and researching. You can turn off the FB and Tw feature from coming in. One user reported that they turned it off and all was fine. Another said they turned it off and later it would come back. So I'm not sure if that has to do with OS ver. or locked or unlocked and or if it may be carrier related and the way the phone is setup?
       Do a little research, try turning that FB and Tw feature off for contact being brought in, etc
    Best, Enjoy

  • Facebook Integration 10.8.2

    Is it me or does anybody have the issue with Facebook posts via Notification Center not having the ability to select user lists for FB?  It's in IOS6 and seems to indidcate it should work in 10.8.2, but nothing happens when selecting the drop down box?  Bug, intended behavior, or just my issue?  Thanks.

    I found the facebook part, it was in Mail, Contacts and Calender.  So I figured that out.  Now I just need to figure out how to link my Mac and phone to the same number instead of email.

  • If I set my iPhone 5 as New am I going to lose my Contacts? I don't want to lose my contacts, Notes, Calender etc.

    one question I have backed up my iPhone but if I want to reset it as a new iPhone just to see if that helps with the battery and I have backed up in iCloud also and if I do reset it and when I sign back into iCloud as a new phone I won't lose my contacts right? Or How do I do it when I set it new device with the latest software update? Cause I don't want to lose my contacts, Notes, Calender etc. if anyone know how can you please respond step by step! Thanks P.S. If I do do this how do I download the software meaning the latest?

    If your contacts, calendar, notes, etc. are synced to iCloud they will download back to your phone when you sign back into your iCloud account in Settings>iCloud.  You can check to confirm that they are in iCloud by going to icloud.com from your computer and seeing if your data is there.
    This explains how to update your phone: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4623.  But if you're running iOS 7.1 you already have the latest version.

  • IPhone Contact Pictures Fully Explained

    Hello Guys,
    Just wanted to explain fully how the iPhone contact pictures work and why some are large and some are small etc.
    In the very beginning if you added a picture to a contact on the IPHONE when you made a call it would show up as a LARGE image. If you added the picture via the Mac contacts app, when you called it would be a small image in the top right corner.
    Then what happened if you added a HD/large in data size image to a contact in the mac app, it would show in your iPhone (during a call) as a large image. This was because there was enough picture data to show the larger size.
    Now we come to Yosemite and iOS8........
    In iOS8 if you now view a contact on the iPhone and actually finger tap the contact picture it actually opens up the full image in the screen. This didn't happen before.
    Before if you tapped the picture nothing would happen.......now you can view the image and save it to the camera roll if you wish........
    Now.....in Yosemite if you add a picture on the Mac this is where is gets interesting....... It doesn't matter on the actually data size of the image. It could be 40kb or 4mb. What makes the difference between large and small when calling is the HEIGHT of the image.
    If you resize ANY image to 960px, when calling it will show the image as blurry LARGE!!
    If you make the image 959px or less in height it will show the image as small top right.
    So you have have a 5mb image thats 959px high and it will show as a small image when calling.......
    I hope that clears everything up for you guys!

    ckent007,
    What version of the iPhone software are you using?
    Are you saving the contact pictures (by tapping done in the edit contact screen) before you go to the home screen and use another application?
    Hope this helps,

  • How to sync iPhone's Facebook integrated contacts to Address Book (Mac)?

    Hello Apple Support Communities!
    I have a question regarding the Facebook integrated contact entries in iOS6. Is there any way of syncing them onto the Mac's "Address Book" or iCloud?
    Seeing as how they contained a lot of information, I copied all the numbers and addresses onto these Facebook contacts and deleted the ones I originally had. But when I synced them onto the computer, only the ones that weren't linked to Facebook stayed in the address book and iCloud.
    Perhaps there is an app that allows me to export the contacts on my iPhone and onto the Mac?
    Thank you in advance!

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
    If it's a PowerPC Mac, it can't sync that iPhone.
    If it's an Intel Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update.

  • How can I turn on Facebook integration in iOS 6 without syncing w/Calendar/Contacts?

    Just updated to iOS 6.  I would like to turn on Facebook integration but I don't want to sync with my contacts and calendars.  It seems that there are options to turn this off but only after you've signed in to Facebook -- and you get the warning that signing into Facebook merges your contacts and calendars!  Is there any way to turn off the merger in advance?

    You'd do that if you wanted to add in all your contacts from facebook - it makes it useful to find out who's using other apps - 4 square - whatsapp, facetime etc.   I had many facebook contacts that I don't call, however if they are using other things, I might be talking to them.  So yeah, I decided to bring in all my facebook contacts.  It has created a mess that I'm trying to clean up though.  The mess is that I have a lot of duplicate contacts ( a facebook contact of Mary Smith and a contact on my phone of Aunt Mary).  I know that when I go and edit one of the 2, there is an option to link the 2, which will then merge the data (adds email info, birthday, facebook contact info, twitter etc) but it doesn't delete one of the contacts.  It should give an option to delete one of the merged contacts.. but it doesn't.  I'm not sure how to fix this.  I've been asking the boards here, but no solution has been given.
    There has to be a way to do this (easily) that is
