How can I change the contacts app settings to view by groups?

When I had an iPod Touch (3rd generation), I was able to sort my contacts by groups by using another app and then when I launched the default contacts app I could tap the "Groups" button and I saw a list of them (Family, Friends, Businesses, etc). That way, I could tap the group I wanted and only view those contacts. Now I'm using an iPhone (4th generation with iOS 6.1.2) and it is the most obnoxious contacts system in the world. I now have to unselect every group I don't want to see, and it's a pain-in-the-neck to get Facebook contacts assigned to groups as the app I use to assign contacts to groups isn't "permitted" to use those contacts that are from Facebook or those who don't have a Facebook link unless I add them and delete the old. I work with a nonprofit organization and I have a lot of contacts for various businesses through them but I shouldn't have to unselect 12 different groups just to view a single group. I've tried looking in settings and can't figure out how to change this. I must have over 100 contacts and this is a pain to deal with. Did Apple really think this was the best change they ever made to the contacts app? Considering they still haven't implemented the ability to assign contacts to groups...
Another thought is why not also view contacts by business or "theme"? Such as, what if you have a large, extended family and might want to view just 1 section (like my cousins' family who have various last names due to marriage). This is why being able to view by group is so important to me but if I create 5 different groups for family and friends, that means I have to unselect 4 of them AND all the other groups for businesses, work, community, etc just to view the specific contacts. So, did Apple change this or am I just not seeing how to view them the way I want?

I assume that you are in Germany ? Try going to the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app on your iPad and tap on your account id, tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account, and then select the Country/Region section and select Germany.

  • How can i change the Director App Icon for Windows?

    How can i change the icon for my App for Windows? Director can do this from the Publish Settings. The Custom icon for app doesn't work. I select a .ico file for windows and Director can't attach this to the app.
    There is anothe way to do that simple like in Mac with the Contest folder?
    Regards
    Gino Delgado

    You can also try my RiEditor here: http://www.director-online.com/dougwiki/index.php?title=Resource_and_Icon_Editor
    However, to answer your original question directly, I suspect there's something wrong with your .ico file as the feature in the publish settings works just fine, last I tried.

  • HT4534 How can I change the contact number for facetime

    My face time on the imac, contact number is set to my other iphone. I would like to change the contact number to one of my other iphones? How can I achieve this?

    Thanks all for your responses.
    I tried to "order" Siri to change my husband's default number and whatever syntax I used for my request Siri responded with a web search on how to set favorites.
    So I ended up deleting the work number from my husband's contact information and I used Siri to call him a couple of times. After 24 hours (random time frame) I added his work mobile back to his contact information, but not in the favorites.
    SIri now dials his home number because it's the only one in the favorites.
    I'll add it to the favorites in due course.

  • How can I change the DVD regional settings?

    I have changed my regional settings more than the required times and they cannot be changed any more so l cannot watch some of the dvd's l have.how can l fix it to be multi regional dvd player?

    Hi Sam,
    Once the allowed number of region changes has been reached you will need to flash the firmware in your DVD player in order to reset the region count. You can try to Google for the required update for your make/model of DVD ROM or you can check with a Toshiba Service Agent to see if they can arrange this for you.

  • How can I change the Safari, App Store, iTunes, etc icons?

    I can change the icons on my folders and stuff, and I used LiteIcon to change the Finder, Dashboard and Trash icons but I can't change Safari icon in LiteIcon and I can't use the Get Info method either! Any help? Thank you

    For safari (for example), if its on your dock control click it and go to options > show in finder
    Control click safari there and from the drop down menu click "Get Info"
         Alternatives to this would be to hit command-i or the get info button underneath the icon
    With the window that pops up:
         Click the lock at the bottom to unlock it
         Go to the Sharing & Permission section
         Set all the users listed to "read and write"
    Now to copy the icon that you want to copy, go to the top of the get info window and click the safari icon
    to copy it push command-c
    to replace it push command-v after you have coppied another icon
    to get it back to its normal icon select the icon and push command-x
    You might have to quit and relaunch the app for it to work. 

  • How can I change the highlight color of grid view folders in the dock?

    Using OSX 10.10 Yosemite, the highlight color for a folder in Grid view is barely noticeable.
    Can you spot the highlighted icon below?
    I've grown accustom to clicking the applications folder in the doc then typing a few letters to get me close to the app I want- now it takes an extra few seconds for me to visually find the icon that got highlighted.
    Is there a way to change the highlight color here?

    I would open up the grid spacing slightly so everything does not run together. In System Preferences > General, try setting Highlight color: Red. This won't change the grey selection background around the icon, but it will turn the background behind the icon text to red. That stands out. However, the collateral effect is that text you select in this editor, and other OS X applications, will now have a red background too. Changing colors will require a killall Finder in the Terminal. Actually set mine to #ffff00 which is a vivid yellow, which is more practical when selecting text in a document.

    How can I change the settings on my iPhone 5 so that I get new emails automatically? Without having to open the mail app.
    Thanks!

    No, they will all follow the default setting. If you want them all to fetch, for example every 15 minutes, then set it to 15 minutes in Fetch. I only mentioned the other if you wanted to leave one for manual. I have an account on my phone that is a POP account that I get mail at home from. I let my home computer get this mail, but when I am out of town, I pick it up with the iPhone. That one is set to manual.
