How can I get rid of iCloud duplicates in my Address Book?

Since joining iCloud, I have two duplicate sets of iCloud groups in my Address Book. How can I get rid of one of them?

If you have 2 accounts in AB (iCloud and On My Mac) stop looking at both of them simultaneously.

    I switched my music to a new computer and all the music doubled how can I get rid of 4500 duplicates songs? Will Music Match get rid of the extras for me?

    The iPod is not a storage device, all songs should reside on a computer and you can only sync to one machine. However, if these songs were purchased from iTunes you can reload them (see link). If not, and you have no backup, then they are gone.

  • How can I get rid of search.babylon in my address bar, I have tried everything?

    when I open firefox, in the address bar comes search.babylon.com I have tried everything to get rid of it and can't. Please help

    Unless you are a new computer user you may consider doing the above in a different order, and even avoiding the Reset Firefox step.
    # Remove Babylon related and other unwanted software
    #*see also [[Cannot uninstall an add-on]] <br/>and [[Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page]]
    #Try ''SearchReset''
    #*SearchReset may not have a permanent effect unless rogue software is removed first.
    #*Also I am not certain SearchReset deals with [http://kb.mozillazine.org/User.js_file user.js] files if that was created or modified by Babylon etc
    # Consider using FirefoxReset. <br/>Reset is quick and easy, BUT be aware it removes amongst other things all of your Firefox software extensions. You may wish to at least list them and their websites before you use Reset.
    # If you are confident enough to create a new Firefox profile there may be better; none destructive methods; of sorting out such problems.

  • Can't get rid of a last name in address book

    Hello,
    I of course added my mother to my address book. At one point I had entered her proper first and last name. Until one day I realized that entry was carrying over in emails. So I deleted the last name and entered Mom for the first name.
    Every since then I've stuck with Mom Smith as a contact. I have .mac, which I think might be part of the problem. I've also tried deleting the entry from everywhere and waiting a few weeks, and several syncs later. I then reentered the first name only, and the problem has crept back. Except now, the only place it shows as Mom Smith is the address book and mail. On .mac it's correct.
    Please help!
    Thanks.

    Okay, half way there... I guess.
    I should mention that there are two different addresses for Mom Smith.
    In most cases when autofilling, the name truncates into the correct name. (even though the dropdown that pops up shows the wrong one) Which in a way solves my issue. (I've recently tried the 'delete everything and try again' approach, after the upgrade to leopard. But, this problem has had a way of creeping back in the past)
    However, in one instance, the address did not shorten up, and I was able to delete it as you instructed. I'm not sure what I did to get it to do that, and have been unable to delete the second address of Mom Smith. When it auto-shortens to just Mom, the 'remove previous' option isn't there.
    I've tried clicking the address from the dropdown, hitting tab, and hitting return. All of which seem to switch it from Mom Smith in the drop down, to the Mom I recently 'fixed'.
    Thanks for you help.

  • How can I get Lion 10.7.5 to open Address book from Snow leopard 10.6

    The Snow Leopard 10.6.3 address book is version 5.0.1. I don't know the version of the Lion 10.7.5 address book.

    Command + option + R
    After 15 minutes of downloading from the web, it seems to do the same thing as:
    Command + R
    in other words, it still wants to install Mountain Lion and not Lion.
    Any other thoughts?

  • How can I get rid of duplicate birthdays in icloud Calendar, especially when there are no Contacts in the iCloud? Case ID: 365381395

    How can I get rid of duplicate birthdays in icloud Calendar, especially when there are no Contacts in the iCloud? Case ID: 365381395

    Found the answer myself while helping to set up iPhone.  It is simple when you know how.  Before signing out of iCloud to sign in again and restore the link to Photo Stream I had opted to copy iCloud contacts to the Mac.  When I signed in again this created two iCloud views which can be seen in Contacts Preferences.  I just disabled one of them.  Not brave enough to attempt removal but I gues this would work too.

  • ITunes on iCloud has created unwanted multiple playlists. How can I get rid of them?

    iTunes on iCloud has created unwanted multiple playlists. How can I get rid of them?

    Hi, if this is in regards to your library simply open up itunes and do the following steps:
    Click File
    Scroll down to "show duplicates"
    A list will then appear of your duplicate song titles.
    Be sure to CAREFULLY review each song to make sure it is a duplicate ( as I have some music that is the same song but live, acoustic etc...)
    Proceed to manually delete each song from the list and leave alone any song that you wish to keep.
    For playlists, you will need to hit the name tab so that your doubles line up, from there you will have to manually delete them, it helps to hold the Control button to select multiple songs as a time ( they will be highlighted) then when your done selecting the songs you wish to delete, right click your mouse and select the delete option from the window tab.
    Best of luck, please rate my response for help!

  • How can I get rid of old books that I have deleted from my device? It still shows up as purchased books on "Icloud".

    How can I get rid of old books that I have deleted from my device but still shows up as "purchased books" on "Icloud". I don't want to see some of these books at all. I can sort by one that are PDFs and ones currently on device, but it still gives option to show those old titles. Does anyone know how to erase your "Icloud" history, please?

    Nooooooo! lol... If I want to download again I will, I don't want an electronic trail. Plus when I have Ibooks open, sometimes I will accidently hit the item and it will immediatly try to download it. The problem with that is that its "Time magazines Best Photos of 2012" etc and it locks up my IPAD cuz of sheer size of the book. So I would like it gone from the history. Isn't there a way to clear the history?

  • HT4007 How can I get rid of duplicates in a project with out deleting them one by one?

    How can I get rid of duplicates in a project without deleting them one by one?

    What kind of duplicates? Did you import the same image file several times? Aperture does not have any built-in tools to detect duplicates. You will have to do delete the one by one. You could arrange the images by date, so that duplicates are shown side by side in the Browser. Or use a tool like Duplicate Annihilator (the program is not free). I have never tested it but some do recommend it.
