How can I remove all my outlook contacts from my iphone contacts

Well, Thats was the first time I`ve used Icloud, so I don`t have much experience, and I just active Icloud on my devices and I dont know why all my outlook contacts went to my iphone contacts. How can I remove it on a easy way otherwise I would delete them one by one and that wont be nice, because are too many.
Sincerely
Pedro

Depending how many contacts you started with and where they were from? were they on your sim card before? to remove ALL contact from an iPhone go to iTunes / info un-tick Sync Contacts and change Outlook to another addrss book that has nothing stored in it (ie. empty) sync your phone with that and that will leave your phone with no contacts. Next look for the backup where you had your previous contacts loaded (group) and re sync it to put them back. Chech iTunes when you plug in your phone that it doesn't sync immediately when you plug it in to eliminate future problems.

How can I remove all photos and directories from iPhoto?

How can I remove all photos and directories from iPhoto as if it was a brand new install?
I am new to iPhoto and was unaware of how it works, honestly I still am a little confused as to when pics I am using 1/2 the time, some from iPhoto and some from MyPics.
Anyhow, I am looking to remove all photos from iPhoto because during the migration of all my photos from PC to MAC, somehow my timeline became messed up and all my photos that have been logged my dates since 1998 are now all messed up.
Although all my year folders are still in tact, IE 1998-2006, the subfolders and like pics are all intertwined somehow.
And when I search iPhoto for a given year, photos from 2,4, 8 yrs back show up in 2006.
Anyhow, I have selected and deleted all photos and folders within iPhoto, and then import the desired photos from MyPics, only to have the photos double up in the library. ( The old ones that should be deleted and the new imports)
I simply don't get it, they fill the trash and disappear when it's emptied, then reappear when iPhoto re-opens!
Can someone help????
I have completely reworked all my photos so that they are all in the correct folders outside of iPhoto, and now I want to import those and only those pics with that file structure.
IE Structure = YEAR > MONTH > DAY ( or if needed) > DAY/EVENT

Do you want to remove the existing full sized image files also? If so then just drag the iPhoto Library folder from the Pictures folder to the Trash and empty it. But be warned you'll lose all of your image files.
You are dragging the files to the iPhoto Trash bin and then using the iPhoto->Empty Trash menu, right?
In copying your photos to myspace and then back the original capture date may not be retained and then either the created date or modified date will be used by iPhoto. If the files in the current library are the originals from your camera then those have the best chance of retaining the correct Captured Date. You can check that out by dragging the Originals folder from your iPhoto Library folder to the desktop and then trash what remains of the iPhoto Library folder. Then launch iPhoto and it will ask you to create an new library. Then import that Originals folder and it's subfolders by dragging it into iPhoto's open window. You'll keep the same rolls that was. The roll dates may change but you can check the captured date of the files by using the calendar in the Source pane.
You won't be able to keep your folder structure within iPhoto. Each outside folder will result in a roll with the same title as the folder. You'll be able to create folders in the Source pane to put albums inside. You can create a smart album to include all photos in a certain date range, line one month.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

How can I erase all phantom iCal data from my iPhone/Flat Panel Mac?

Tried many ideas and Apple Genius could not even help me. Here is the scoop...
I created an iCloud account then synched my iPhone to my Flat Panel. Suddenly my iPhone showed up to six duplicates of iCal events (often a week or two later than the actual event). My Flat Panel iCal showed no such events. I erased all data and settings from the iPhone, restarted it from scratch (both from a back-up and as a new iPhone). As soon as I synch it to the Flat Panel the multiple events reappear on the iPhone but still not on the Flat Panel. I checked the "replace all calendar info" box in iTunes before synching. I deleted my iCloud account. I tried synching my old 1st gen iPod to teh Flat Panel, and the iCal info there is correct. I erased the iPhone and started over by starting it up/synching with my Macbook Air. The iCal info is now correct on my iPhone. How can I go back to synching on my Flat Panel? Where is the phantom info hiding on the Flat Panel?
Thanks for helping me with this strange problem!
John

Ohnj,
I presume that you are no longer trying to use iCloud for syncing with the "Flat Panel." It will not work since you are using OS X 10.5.8.
Quit iCal, go to your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Calendars folder and remove any/all files with "Cache" as a part of the file name. Then log out/in or restart and see what happens.

How can I remove all the drawing canvases from a Word file?

Hi,
There are many drawing canvases in the document, which were created by pressing 'edit' on embedded EMF files.
I would like to replace the embedded figures with object references, so I searched for a way to delete all the drawing canvases but couldn't find the result.
Is there a macro that will delete all the drawing canvases in the document? Or, is the drawing canvas defined as an object type at all?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
According to your description, do you want to change the shapes or other content's figures with object references of the drawing canvases in Word?
If you need to use a macro, I recommend you post the question to MDSN forum for Word:

The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.

HT1918 how can i remove my credit card details from the iphone

I fed my friends credit card details on my iPhone to purchase some apps, but whenever i am buying anything now on, the system does not prompt and the amount gets deducted from my friends account. Need to know how to remove the credit card details from the account.

From that HT3702 page :
If you update your billing information, the iTunes Store or Mac App Store will place an authorization hold on your payment card account, usually in the amount of 1 USD or the local currency equivalent, to verify your account information.
You might see authorization requests on your online statement. These requests aren't actual charges; they are tests to confirm that your payment card account is active and has available funds to accommodate transactions. Authorization holds are removed by your financial institution shortly after your purchase clears. The time it takes to remove authorization requests varies by financial institution.
The number of days that it takes to diappear varies by bank, but it's usually a few days - though with the weekend coming up it might take an extra day or two

How can I remove all Time Machine data from an external HD, while retaining the other folders/files on the disk?

I recently replaced my old Macbook Pro with a new Macbook Pro Retina.
The original MBP had Time Machine set up on an external HD, and I also had some manually saved/backed up files (stuff that didn't need incremental backups; very old stuff) on the disk as well, in folders. This worked fine and well for the life of the original MBP.
When I set up the MBPr, I did not elect to transfer everything over from a Time Machine disk, as I wanted a Fresh Install; I chose to just re-download/install the apps I needed from the App Store. Much cleaner, more stable. I updated to Yosemite immediately so, it gave me more of a clean install.
The problem is, Time Machine now won't read any Time Machine backups from that disk. Migration assistant can pull data from it, but it's a bit wonky. It was easier to just manually copy over what I needed.
Now, I just want to "reset", and completely remove the old Time Machine data from the external hard drive, since it is completely useless to me now (I can't access it on this computer, and it's taking up space). I want to remove the Time Machine data, as if it were never there, but keep my other folders/files that are on the disk (so, a format is not feasible).
I will then set the disk up as a new, fresh Time Machine disk for the new MBPr.
What is the proper method for removing Time Machine data from an external disk (which doesn't seem to be associated with this machine anyway)? I know a simple rm -rf will cause problems.
Thanks for any help provided.

How can I remove dotted circle U2 songs from my iPhone?

I've faced with the annoying 'Unable to download item' pop-ups in every time after the phone booted.
Seem this happen after upgraded to iOS 8 and after downloaded U2 SOI album.
Things I've tried..
Remove iTunes gift album "Songs of Innocence" from your iTunes music library and purchases Not work.
Manual delete album [How to delete content you've downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store] Not work.
Re-download album and sync to the iPhone then try to remove again. Not work.
May be a digital booklet problem. But it's not. [iBooks: Syncing iTunes Digital Booklets to iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch] Not work.
Sign-out from iTunes, iCloud / reboot the iPhone / sign-in again. Not work.
What can I do with these dotted circle U2 songs in my phone?
Please help..

I had this issue with my iPhone - drove me nuts. Tried everything.
It appears to be an issue with a persistent file in the Purchases folder in the iPhone/iPad directory, which I could only access with a file browsing utility (iBrowse). Once installed you can browse to the Purchases folder and delete all the entries.
Check the box in iTunes to Manually Manage Music and then delete the grey U2 tracks.
Sync and they'll be gone
Fixed!

How can I remove my iCloud Photo Albums from my iPhone 6 storage, but still use the iCloud Photo Sharing?

I put all my photos from my iPod Touch 4 and my iPhone 4S in iCloud Photo Albums and Labeled them so that when I got the new iPhone 6 on iOS 8.1.2 I could have my previous photos on there for future use.

I know how to add more storage on my iCloud account, I just want to know Is there a way where my iCloud Photo Albums can still be in my iCloud Account, just not taking up all my storage on my iPhone.

Hello mushysun,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you did not sign out of your Apple ID on your iPhone before creating a new one, then you will need to sign back in with your previous Apple ID and then sign out. If you do not remember your password and do not have access to the email account, then you can reset your password by using the security questions.

How can I remove the forced U2 songs from my iphone without synchronizing?

Hello. I have about 100 songs merely on my iPhone, nowhere else. Apple moved somehow these U2 songs on my iPhone without permission. Now it is like having an undesired cupboard standing in the middle of my living room and I cannot remove it. A synchronizing would also delete my 100 songs. What can I do? Please help!

How can I remove my old phone number from my iPhone?

I want to sell my old iPhone 5 (Sprint), and I want to get everything off of it. Obviously I'd restore it and remove everything first, but how do I get the 'My number' to change from my current phone number (which was ported to T Mobile and is with a newer phone now) to something else/removed? I remember I had the same problem a few years ago with an android phone, and I kept getting texts from my number on it (both phones at the same time), I obviously don't want something like this to happen again, especially if I sell it.
Thanks in advance

How can I remove my old iCloud account from my iPhone 4?

I recently changed my icloud account email on my mac, but when I try to delete it on my iphone 4, I need to enter a password. But, the icloud account email is still set to my old one, so i can't delete it because there's no longer any matching email and password because I changed it on my mac!! It's driving me crazy! PLEASE HELP

Go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

How can i remove all contact at once from ovi?

after synchronise with ovi & my mobile how can i remove all contact from my ovi's contact.
I can remove one by one but i want to remove all at once. how possible??
Solved!
Go to Solution.

@tkwcare:
Beware of that method. Restoring your contacts after sync'ing will restore the phone to a state with a timestamp prior to when the sync occurred. Sync'ing again will attempt to bring the phone up to date with the online resource and, in doing so, will delete all the contacts off the phone!
