Hi,theres no edit in contacts so i cant delete them individually.?

Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > iCloud/ or whatever email account you have (I used iCloud) > Turn on Contacts and Calendars (don't worry if it merges) > TADA. It should work (well, it worked for me anyways). Once you got it working, you can go back and de-toggle Contacts and Calendars.

How can I bulk delete contacts from my iPhone 4S? I've imported them from gmail and hotmail and there are many more than I need. Deleting them one by one will take ages, there must be a quicker way! Also, do contacts take up space on the phone or are they stored remotely?
Thanks.. J

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

When I import photos taken from my Ipod Touch 4 to My Mac Desktop, I click delete photos on ipod, but they do not delete. Is the only way to delete them individually (I have 1,400 photos!) or is there a way to delete them all in one go?

I realise you can you can delete them on your ipod slowly as you have to click on each one, and you can restore your ipod, but surely there is a way to get around this?

Thanks If anyone can help me.

Download/install an app is a know possible solution.
3. Install another app from the App Store
If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.
Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

Is there another way to close apps other than deleting them from the multitask bar.....I have a small crack in the bottom of my screen and that part of the screen does not recognize the touch. :(

Is there another way to close apps other than deleting them from the multitask bar.....I have a small crack in the bottom of my screen and that part of the screen does not recognize the touch.

There's generally no reason to be closing them that way at all. The apps you see in the recents bar are just that, apps that you used recently. Most of them are doing absolutely nothing. The only apps that are really doing anything in the background are ones that play music and ones that are using location services. Just leave them be.
Best of luck.

HT2477 How do I select multiple images without clicking on each one? Is there a way to select duplicate photos to delete them?

How do I select multiple images without clicking on each one? Is there a way to select duplicate photos to delete them?

Consider adding the delete symbol to the Finder window tool bar. This way you can highlight all the photos you want to delete at the same time then hit the "delete" symbol.
Open a Finder window/View/Customize Toolbar - follow the directions in the customized pop down window.

Select the Inbox folder to see emails.
click on first email to get focus.
Hold down 'Ctrl' key and press 'A' key
This will highlight /select all emails.
they will appear as conversations in the Message Pane
Clickon Delete.
when it has finished - you do have a lot of emails :)
Right click on Inbox and select 'compact' - this removes all marked as deleted emails.

I don't believe you read Victor's question CT.
Victor,
Anyway, Office comes with an Uninstaller in its Microsoft Office folder found in your Applications folder, if you wish to remove office. You have to quit all open applications. command-tab keyboard combination will tell you most things that are open. Without knowing which Mac OS X version you have, we can't tell you for certain how to tell if other things are running as Apple's utilities have varied across operating system version. One thing you can do, is reboot the machine in safe mode, holding the shift key down. This forces memory resident programs not to run. Then you can simply drag and drop the applications to the trash that don't have an installer. Be aware though, if you go back to install them, they may not handle it well if a different version was on the machine earlier.

Got some of my wife's contacts and can't delete them!

I encountered a very strange occurence upon updating to ios6: In addition to my contacts (all stored in iCloud), about 24 of my wife's contacts appeared on my phone. And strangest of all... I can't delete them! My wife and I do not share an iCloud account, so I can't imagine how they got there. I tried turning off contacts in iCloud and removing them from my phone. All that remained were my wife's 24 contacts, none of which could be deleted. This did not occur on my iPad upon updating, nor are any of these extra contacts stored in my iCloud. It's like they are embedded in my phone! Any ideas?

Gotcha. My backups are under iOS 5, so I was hoping I could avoid having to go through the lengthy update process. Oh well...

When I logged on to itunes my daughters contacts uploaded to my iphone. We do not share the same itunes account. Does anyone know how to get rid of her contacts other then manually deleting them one by one?

When i logged onto my itunes account, my daughters contacts uploaded to my iphone. We do not share the same itunes account so i don't know how this happened. Does anyone know how to remove her contacts from my phone with out having to manually delete them one by one?

Apparently, you have set up the same iCloud account on both devices or you are syncing both devices under the same user ID on the same computer and have ended up syncing both of them with the same address book on the computer.

I WOKE UP YESTERDAY AND HAD NO CONTACTS NOW I CANT FIND THEM AT ALL ITS VERY IMPORTANT THAT I RETRIEVE THEM PLEASE HELP PLEASE

I REALLY NEED HELP PEOPLE I LOST MY ENTIRE CONTACT LIST AND NOW I CANT LOCATE THEM AND ITS VERY IMPORTANT THAT I GET THEM BACK PLEASE HELP

What were you syncing your contacts with? iCloud? MS Exchange? Gmail? Yahoo? A contact app on your computer? If the answer is "none of the above" the only hope is to restore the most recent backup of your phone from either your computer or iCloud.

Can I get my iCloud contacts back if I deleted them, Can I get my iCloud contacts back if I deleted them

I deleted my contacts on accident in icloud. Can those be restored?

Well, its complicated. I used to share an itunes account. My phone had my contacts backed to my itunes not thru the cloud. This other person had his through the cloud. He removed his phone and now has his own itunes device, but did not back up his phone or icloud through apple so lost all of his contacts.
Then, I went in, and my first goal was to send him his contacts from the cloud. I sucessfully imported them in my address book on my mac pro, and exported what I thought was the entire book to him via email. Instead it was just one contact. Oops
I then made it worse by going into the address book and deleting the contents, since I thought I sent them along. I think went into Icloud and deleted those as well. I then though that if I did the "merge" of my phone to the icloud, it would just move my contact on my phone into the cloud and my mac. I didn't have enough room it said to do this, so I deleted the Icloud data in the storage on my iphone, and then re-did the merge. Somehow it deleted all of my contacts as well, so I had nothing.
So I then decided to use the back up I did before I started all of this, but it was too updated. There are a few others I can choose from- March 2014 back to March 2013 on the other persons phone. I dediced for now just to reinput most of my contacts.
So I wanted to know if any of this was recoverable- like if Apple can just go back to yesterday and unwind even just the icloud contacts for the other person, like they can on email accounts.

When i got my iphone, itunes imported pictures on to my iphone that i dont want on there and i cant delete them off my phone by using my phone so how do i delete them through itunes

how do i delete pictures off my iphone through itunes??

The same way you got them there. The sync process.
Deselect the folder and sync.
or
Delete the foklder form your computer and sync.
or
Delete the phtos from your computer and sync.
or
Remove the photo from the selected folder on your computer and sync.
The iphone simply mirrors the selected content of your computer.
