Group contacts missing

my group contacts are missing from icloud. I have three groups mine, my husbands and business. Only mine is missing. I looked on my IMac, my cell and on icloud it is not there anywhere. Went into time machine to see if I could get them back from there and I get an error message. "“Address Book” can’t be modified or deleted because it’s required by Mac OS X." Maybe I am not using Time machine correctly. My husband has all contacts on his phone, we share the same icloud account, he is out of town so I am not able to get to his phone, not sure why he still has all three groups and I only have two. I also noticed that some of my notes are moved. Not sure if these were ones I typed on the computer or on my cell phone.
OK so now if I hit all contacts they are all there just not my specific group so I am OK I guess

There's never been a way to create a group in Contacts using the iPhone. If you sync the contacts created elsewhere, i.e. iCal, Outlook, MobileMe, the groups created there will be synced.
Even if you have only 1 group in those apps, Contacts should show a group title at the top of the contacts list, with the "+" on the right (to add contacts) a "Groups" arrow on the left (to go to the groups list). However, you can't create a new group in the phone.
My phone, synced from MobileMe, has only 1 group named (by the phone) "All Contacts". When I also sync from iCal on the Mac, a second group is created (in this case duplication).

  • E51 is lack of "OK" button and groups are missing ...

    Greetings all!
    Couple of days ago I've noticed that my phone E51 is lack of "OK" button - to be more precise: when I'm creating new SMS/ MMS message and I'm going to add contact, the cell phone displays all my contacts, I can select one or more persons but can not confirm by OK button (normally placed at left lower corner of the screen) because there is not “OK” letters and linked button doesn’t respond.
    See picture below - there is OK button, mine E51 doesn't have that one... ://
    Additionally my contact groups are missing and I can not display them - they are gone.
    I've reset my phone with the code *#7???# but notching changed. Afterwards I've tried to upload my contacts' backup to my cell phone - and PC suite said there is synchronization problem - but nothing more... “Contact’s can not be synchronized”…
    Does anyone get similar problem?
    Solved!

    That's strange. But then again it seems you may have entered the wrong code if you say nothing happened. Back up your phone except for settings. You may lose data if you do not. The final two methods below would delete user data.
    Try these:
    *#7780# - this will restore factory settings. See if the Ok buttons return
    *#7370# - do this only if the above code does not work. This wipes the phone memory of settings and all installations, a quick format. 
    Hold *, green and 3 keys simultaneously while powering up - last ditch effort. If nothing else works. This will return your phone to factory state

  • Group contacts in Symbian address book (E66)

    I'm getting annoyed by the fact that all contacts that belongs to any group contacts are still visible in the address book's "main tree".
    I want the usual single contacts visible as they always are and contacts in groups not visible at all at the main contacts list. Contacts included in groups would only be seen in the group contact menu.
    The issue is simple but little hard to explain. Contacts included in any group would not be visible among the usual contacts in address book?
    Is there any workaround to solve this or any better third party contact application, perhaps?

    Mail doesn't have a separate SPAM filter as such, not unless I've completely missed something. How are these emails begin marked as SPAM? Are they arriving with the word "SPAM" somewhere in the subject or body? If so, that's being added by your mail server's SPAM filter, not by Mail, so you'd have to address the issue with your mail service provider.

  • Address Book Contacts Missing with Exchange

    I have seen this posted previously, but there has been little discussion.
    My exchange setup in SL seems to work perfectly in iCal and Mail, but I am missing about 100 contacts out of the 200 or so contacts that should be there. I do not see anything common between these contacts that would make them go missing, except that most (maybe all of them) come from the same group. There are only a few contacts that synced over from this group, but most are missing. I have yet to determine if any contacts from my other groups are missing.
    I have this same exchange account set up on a Windows machine and on my iPhone and everything syncs fine between those devices.
    Thanks.
    A quick update. I have determined that there are contacts missing from all of my groups.

    I am having the same problem. I updated to SL and about 1/3 of my contacts are missing. I still have them on my phone and am trying to figure out if there is a way to dowload them to my computer.

  • How can I set up group contacts on my IPad Air?

    HOw can I set up group contacts on my IPad Air?

    I Don't know if you can or not.
    but you could try one if these 2 things:
    -under a new contact in name type the names of the people. Next, I'm not sure if this will work, but for phone just put a different hone down.
    -Also tou could just make a group message. In messages just type all the names in the to field after you tap compose.

  • Can I send a text to a "group" contact without selecting each individual member?

    Can I send a text to a "group" contact without selecting each individual member?  I have a group formed in my contacts, but I still have to select each member in that group to send a text or email from my phone.

    There are apps that allow you to address sms messages to groups (such as Speed Names: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/speed-names-contacts-groups/id285124918?mt=8), but not iMessages.  Perhaps this will change with a future iOS update.
    The only point of having them at the moment is to allow you to limit the view to only contacts belonging to a group, so that you can more easily add the individual members of the group.  But at the present time, you still have to add them individually.

    You can create your groups on your computer and sync them on your iPhone. Or you can use an application. I developped Easy Group, to manage group of contacts, and send group texts and group emails.

    That's because you can't.  You make the contact group on the computer application with which you're synching your contacts.  Or you can find an app in the app store.

  • How do i create a group contact on iphone4

    Hi, how do I create a group contact on the iPhone 4 when sending group text and group emails? 

    Hi
    600 for my work
    Note that many email providers place limits on how many people you can address with a single email. 100 contacts is a typical limit (for iCloud.com, Gmail.com etc.) In that case no app will let you send a single email to that many contacts at once, and you should consider an online service such as mailchimp.com
    If your groups are less than 100, or your provider does not impose a limit, I'd like to suggest our "MailShot Pro" app, which has been one of the top-selling group email apps for over a year. Unlike most other group email apps, it creates special contacts for your groups which you can then use directly from Mail, and tens of thousands of other compatible apps. Over 250,000 people are now using it, and it is always ranked highly in search results for group email apps.
    You can find it on the App Store here:MailShot Pro
    A free version is also available, for creating a few small groups. MailShot (Note that certain other apps marketed as "free" will similarly only let you send to small groups without an upgrade)
