How do I clear duplicates from my contact list on the iphone
My iphone contact list is has many duplicates fromprevious syncs. Can I clear these out?
You can't do it on the iPhone. You'll have to do it on your computer. Open Address Book. Go to Cards>Look for Duplicates. Delete those from there. You also might want to merge some info too. You can also merge them using the merge option under the Cards menu.

itunes sync takes all music off iphone 4s onto pc. how do i get music from itunes on pc to the iphone 4s?
Under your device in iTunes, you need to make sure you have "Sync Music" enabled on iTunes under the music tab to tell iTunes to move the music it has over to your iPhone.
Take a look at this article for information on how to sync your iPhone using iTunes.

I am unable to find my acontact list after downloading IOS6.1 and the ICloud. When I open contacts up on the Iphone is says that I don't have any????
I'm sorry for the delay in my response but I was away for the weekend. I went through and tried all of above and still not working. To answer the question about connecting to another router ie Starbucks was not tried as I haven't had a chance to get over there yet, BUT I do have hot spot on my iPhone and I don't see that either. Currently I connected to the internet through the hot spot using Bluetooth, so I am able to use it but only if my phone is around. It is the only way that I can get the iPad online currently.
As for the answer regarding SSID/router changes, I am not very technologically sauvy but I do know that it was working perfectly for several months and just suddenly stopped connecting, but as I mentioned above every other device connects to the router in my house and nothing has been changed or added. It does seem weird that it won't find my iPhone when the hot spot is on and every other device will.
Thank you all for your responses, and please keep them coming. Is there anyway that maybe I changed a setting on my iPad accidentally that I am not aware of? By that I mean other than the obvious wifi on/off switch. I keep hoping the answer will be something silly, obvious and a quick fix.
Once again, thank you all for taking the time to answer. Hopefully we can all work to figure this out and help out myself and the others having this ANNOYING. issue!! -
How do i remove duplicates from iCloud contacts
I have duplicates in my contacts in iCloud.
When I enquire how to remove them Apple say if the duplication is in iCloud I must contact Apple icloud Support; this is obviously in the States as they will not accept my phone number.
So how do I resolve the problem because what is mostly only odd duplicates in iCloud sometimes shows up as repeats of five or more on my iphone, ipad, and Macbook pro. Also some of the duplicates on the hardware only show the name with no content or repeat the phone number or address up to ten or more times within the actual contact card.

Can I remove this update from the active list on the computer? I don't want it active as I may by mistake install this unwanted update
You can only hide some updates (i believe only OS X updates). You can do so by right clicking or control clicking in the blank area around the description or title of the update in the App Store list and choosing hide update. If you'd like to restore them, choose the Store option from the menu bar and then "show all software updates"
you can alternatively use the Terminal to "ignore" updates and reset "ignored updates". For more information on that open Terminal and type:

How do I get pictures from my old phone to the iPhone?
I just upgraded to an iPhone from a "dumb phone" and they did not transfer my pics or contacts. Does anyone know how I can do this?
Congrats on your new iPhone 4S SnowWhite41! You made a great choice!
Did you purchase this device and activate it in one of our store locations? If so, I apologize that your contacts and pictures were not transferred to your new device while there. What was the model of your previous (basic phone) device? If you had Backup Assistant on your previous device, you can simply download the Backup Assistant application in the App Store onto your iPhone. Here's a link with instructions: http://vz.to/132Lsm0.
As for your pictures and/or videos, depending on the model device, you may be able to sync this media from your handset to your computer. You can then transfer the media using the iTunes software on your computer to your new iPhone. http://bit.ly/YF7FDT Let me know how this works out for you. Thanks!

I'm trying to receive iMessages from a phone other than my own. How do I receive them, I have both Apple IDs and both passwords but do not have current access to the phone I'm trying to get the iMessages from.
Do you have the other phone's Apple ID active in your iPhone iMessage setting? If not, then you would not get them. And, the person sending the iMessage would have to be sending to the Apple ID and not the phone number.

Ive deleted contacts from my contacts list but they still pop up when i go to text and type in the name of a current contact. . How can i delete them off my phones memory for good? iPhone 4S
At the present time, the only way to clear that is to restore the phone as new. Perhaps a future iOS update will give us the option to clear that cache.

I have the same question - I'm running iCloud on my Intel Mac. I'm syncing my contacts to iCloud but I can't see how to use iCloud to create groups in Contacts.
You don't need to use iCloud to create Groups.
Create them in the Address Book application on your Mac. They will sync to iCloud
If you want to create them in iCloud, log into iCloud.com on your Mac. They will sync back to your Mac Address Book.
It can't seriously be the case that I have to also sync with the Address Book app on the Mac just in order to be able to use that app to create contact groups because the iCloud service can't do it ?!?!
The Address book app syncs with iCloud syncs with your iDevice.

As Ocean20 said, there is no official function that does this built in. What you could do however is to find an app that mute calls that come from "blocked" numbers.

How can I get anniversaries to show on my calendar from my contact list?
How can I get anniversaries to show on my calendar from my contact list?
well i dont know if this is what you want but you could says it is a birthday and it will tell you when it is, it can remind you, and even tell you what number (i.e. 23rd anniversary)
- actually nevermind that wont work because it will always say birthday and you cant have two birthdays scheduled for the same person. i do not think that is possible without actually putting it in calendar to repeat every year and just telling you. Sorry. -

diehlin1,
That definitely should show up! Let's get that working. Has anything changed with the computer? What type of phone do you have? Can we try a different USB port on the computer or if possible a different cable?
