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.

  • HT2500 CANT GET RID OF GMAIL LABELS ON APPLE MAIL.

    Hi,
    Can somebody please help me.
    I was using Apple Mail with my Gmail for quite some time then I had to use Outlook provided by my workplace. I recently left the job and now back on using Apple mail to manage my gmail.
    I just noticed that there's this weird thing 'labels'. I spent some time going through threads and changed settings few times..... but I cant get rid of this [google mail] underneath my mailboxes which I used to see and use before.
    I dont like to see this  [google mail] thing as it seems a duplication to me.
    And since I dont access usually from gmail via webmail but more often with Apple Mail, I liked how it worked - delete on Apple Mail gets deleted on gmail server.... I just want to use it as it was before.....
    I cant find the way and since theres no contact email for google nor help centre, can someone please please help me? Im attaching screenshots here below...
    I JUST HATE UGLY UNNECESSARY STUFF ON MY LAYOUT¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ in this case - the label...
    Many thanks,

  • Getting rid of duplicate calendars and contacts.

    I made the mistake of syncing my iPhone while I also had MobileMe sync running. As a result I have calendar and contact duplicates of my Mac and of MobileMe account. I want to get rid of my Mac info and just use the MobileMe sync info. From here on out I will only use MobileMe to sync my iPhone. Does anyone know how to easily get rid of this other set of calendar and contact Mac info?

    Probably the easiest way would be to delete the MobileMe account and then re-add it - you should then be prompted to either keep the data on the iPhone, or delete it.

  • 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.

  • How do I get rid of "EXPLICIT" labels on track listings?

    While I appreciate there may be legal of aesthetic reasons for Apple wanting/needing to raise awareness of the content of song lyrics, this is not a feature I value and would like to get rid of it from those tracks where it is cluttering my iTunes listing.
    Can anyone please tell me how to remove the red box tag sitting alongside the song title? I can't see any way of removing it by editing ID3 tags but hope there is another solution.
    Thanks fior any suggestions.

    I don't have a problem with the labelling - given some of the lyrical content out there it is very necessary - provided I can remove it if I choose, which was the basis of the original question.
    One problem is that the labelling isn't consistent. I've just checked the lyrics for the track on-line and I can't see anything else that might cause offence other than the word I mentioned above. I've just been listening to the Haim album in the last hour and the same word can be heard quite clearly on one track. Yet the download listing on iTunes and shows no corresponding warning. So either Apple or the record companies aren't being consistent. Similarly, John Lennon's "Working Class Hero" is well-known for containing a swear word that's more likely to give offence than the one I referred to before. The track can't be downloaded from iTunes, but I checked Amazon and there it is in the MP3 list - twice - and no sign of any warning.
    Anyway, I think we've done this to death now, so thanks again for the suggestion, which I've acted on.

  • How to get rid of iCloud but save contacts (iPhone4)?

    I want to get rid of iCloud for good.  However, on my iPhone 4, if I turn off "contacts" under the iCloud settings, all of my contacts disappear, which makes perfect sense.
    So, how do I *save* these contacts, separately from iCloud?
    And on a related note, but probably a separate post:  How do I merge these saved iPhone contacts with my Gmail contacts?
    iPhone4
    OS 5.1.1  (I don't have space for OS6)

    I you just want to do contacts open settings>icloud and turn contacts off, you will be asked if you want to keep copies on your phone when you do.
    Alternatively you can use the delete account button, it will let you know that it is going to delete any icloud related content, after you tap delete you will be asked if you want to keep a copy of your info on your device.

  • How to get rid off custom installed theme completely and revert back to mavericks theme(system default)

    Recently, I tried installing a third party theme in my macbook pro (OSX mavericks_10.9.5 installed). Once installation got over i could notice that it was not properly installed in my retina display so i thought of reinstalling the same. Re-install could not be done properly because the theme was a hacked version. The installer theme packages effected the GUI of my system and thus it upgraded some of my core services applications to its custom theme format. So is there any solution to revert those services back to its default state.? Or is there any any way to get these installed format back to older format(icons and stuffs).?Or will it resolve the issue if i try installing the new OSx Mavericks (Productivity tool) from the AppStore?.Please let me know if you guys have got something the issue.
    Please help me.

    Paul--you are a life-saver!! Worked great. I did have to look around to make sure I was getting 4.9 instead of 4.7 (even when the file was named 4.9 at techspot.com), but I finally got the right file, did the install as you suggested, and everything is now fine. One note, though, that I haven't seen mentioned in any of this thread: when I first tried to open up iTunes after getting back to 4.9, the following message appeared: "The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." I merely went to the old .itl file that was created when I did the update to iTunes 5, renamed it, moved it over to my now new 4.9, and iTunes opened fine. My library was a few days out of date, because of the few days' lag from the time I did the iTunes update, but that was easily taken care of, and everything's now working fine. Thanks again!!!

  • Does anyone know how to get rid of duplicates in iCloud contacts please?

    I cannot seem to find where to get the duplicates in iCloud sorted out, any help would be appreciated

    If you are syncing contacts on your Mac with iCloud, open Contacts, then go to Card>Look for Duplicates, then merge any duplicates found.  This will locate and merge contacts with the same name, but different information.

  • 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.
