Edit contact phone number

One of my contacts changed her phone number, but Skype 6.-whatever won't let me remove the now wrong information. I can add all the numbers I want, but I need to drop the incorrect phone number, and it won't let me.

To whom it may concern.
I inserted new phone numbers into few contacts on my list.
These phone numbers are now obsolete, so I want to edit them with new ones; the contact person did not insert them at all. I can insert any number I want but cannot remove them. By the way, Skype has an option to Add phone number, why do not you provide an option to Remove phone number, it looks obvious. Skype is a very good product to use on the go, I like it very much, but when it comes to editing or changing contacts, removing old messages, it is a nightmare. Again, “removing old messages is another problem too. You can hide them but not remove/delete. Why isn't it friendlier with these two regards? More intuitive, I would say.
For their own reasons (whatever they may be), Skype doesn't provide the ability to delete messages from your history beyond deleting the history itself. In regards to editing/deleting numbers that still works fine for me as seen in this video.

WHY assume cell number as primary contact phone number.

I just finished an upgrade of my FIos service, and was puzzled to have them keep contacting me on my cell phones. Since I retired, I am rarely using my cell phone and don't even have it on much of time. I was surprised to see when I reviewed my VERIZON account profile that the Cell number is assumed as the contact number. Only way i see to stop them from contacting me that way is to put up an alternate phone number(actually my FIOS Digital Voice numer) and list me cell number as NONE.
Very strange as I know it wasn't always this why.

Hey TNS. This a guess on my behalf. Most people prefer cell phone contact over home phone. I can say from personal experience no one calls me on my home phone, except telemarketers. Having a cell phone is like a home phone that is with you every where you go. Are you able to edit the phone number on the profile there?

How can I edit a phone number that was entered during setup of Facetime on an iPad?

Trying to get the contact phone number on Verizon site and it is not working

I am trying to call teh Customer Support number to discuss my Order, but when I go to the Contact Us page and click on the Call Us link, I get a pop-up asking for my zip code and then I am taken right back to the Contact US - no phone #'s given.   This feature worked when I used it last Friday during normal business hours.
I also tried the Live Chat link to see if I could engage a live person that way.   This time the link took me to a page that gave me the option of linking to the Support Knowledge base or accessing the automated customer support 'person' (which is just an FAQ interface).
Help - how can I talk to a live person.    If live help (via phone or chat) is limited to certain hours, that should be posted.   user should not be given the virtual version of the run-around.
Does anyone have the technical contact phone number for Maryland/DC region?

1-800-VERIZON
1-888-553-1555
Both numbers feel like they hit the same place, and I know verizon has been consolidating all their numbers to the main one - so stick with that.

Anyone notice that text/iMessages are not listed by contact's name but the contact phone number now?

Anyone notice that text/iMessages are not listed by contact's name but the contact phone number now after 5.0.1?

Yes, I just noticed this after upgrading to 5.0.1. That's why I came here to this forum. I tried re-syncing with address book, but it didn't help. Not only is my text messages only showing phone numbers, instead of contact names, but my call log is doing that as well.

Add a pause to contact phone number

I add a pause to a contact phone number than add the extension and save, the problem is that the iphone does not dial the number. Any idea?

Are you dialing from contacts/favorites or from an app? Apps cannot dial pauses.

How do I edit the phone number associated with my iCloud and iMessage account.

Hi All,
I recently synced my moms phone onto my MacBook and this has effected my iCloud,Facetime and iMessage accounts on my Mac,iPad and iPhone. When I look at preferences on iMessage and facetime, it lists my moms phone number, how can I edit that phone number to be mine ? We are both on the same iTunes account.
Thanks

Do you not set the phone number within Apple ID

and not iCloud?
May be wrong here:(

Contact phone number for Customer Service Center in Wallingford CT

Hello,
Does anyone have a contact phone number for the customer service center in Wallingford, CT. I sent them a letter back on May 17, 2014 and have not heard anything. I called the general customer service phone number on June 7 to follow-up and they did not have any record of my letter being received or reviewed. I have a major issue with Verizon cancelling my unlimited data in error and I am giving Verizon one last chance to work with me on this issue before I switch providers. You would think that they would have the decency to at least respond to someone who has been a loyal customer for over 20 years and who has gone through the trouble of drafting a formal letter and mailing it (since nobody would give me an email address). Please reply with any suggestions.
Thanks.

Did you put in an inactive pricing request to restore the unlimited data within 14 days of the change? If you upgraded under contract then the data plan change would be valid.

HT4489 I am trying to import vcards, they are very simple - a name and contact phone number. No pic, no ancillary information, but I get an error then directed to this completely unhelpful page. The vcards are standard exports from another phone.

Try creating the vCard with the app My Contacts Backup, email it to yourself, then open it on your phone and tap the attachment to import the contacts.

Maximum # of Characters for Contact Phone Number

Anyone know what the maximum number of characters allowed, that will execute a call, within the contact phone number field for Rev 2.0?
Past s/w revision I was able to enter up to 40 characters, inclusive of spaces and pauses (",").
This now does not work, in fact it will not even try to dial the number.
This is causing me problems since I use international access codes and pins for overseas dialing.
Any help would be appreciated.

Other threads discussing the issue of pauses, etc, suggest it isn't the length of the number that stymies the iPhone, but something about the pause itself. I believe it mattered whether the number was entered on the phone or the computer (I think enter it on the phone). Try a search on the general iphone forum for more discussion.

How can I copy, paste and edit a phone number?

If I copy a phone number then paste it, how can I edit the pasted number?
For example, my phone has an Irish SIM. If I am in the UK and copy a UK phone number from an email signature it will typically be in local format i.e. 0208 456 7890. I need to dial 00 44 208 456 7890. I cannot find a way to delete the zero prefix and add the country code.

This one kills me as well - editing phone numbers in the keypad/dialer is a pretty basic function, I could never fathom why it didn't exist. We need to be able to place a cursor, and copy/paste part-numbers! I'm constantly trying to paste just an area code, or an extension, or insert the country code, and I should not need to create a new number in the contact directory to do it!
Currently I do the copy/paste editing in Notes, and then paste the corrected number into the dialer - pointless and inefficient, and contrary to the Apple philosophy of making the user experience easy and seamless...

Contact Phone Number Colour!

When viewing a text message, at the very top you have two options you can select, either 'Call' or 'Contact Info'. If you select 'Contact Info' and look at the phone numbers for this contact, one of them is shown in the colour blue. Does anyone know the significance of this? It can't be a favourite as that is shown by a star, nor a default number to dial as I'm unaware you can set that on the iPhone, and on some of my contacts, the number or numbers are all shown in black. I asked Apple but the guy I spoke to said he didn't know, does anybody have the answer?

This indicates the cell phone number the SMS was exchanged with.
