How do I delete all my contacts at the same time?

I want to delete all my contacts from my iphone 4s. I know how to delete them one at a time, but I want to know if there is a quicker way?

On the iPhone I'm afraid you are not able. I would suggest you go to the address book you are syncing to on your computer and delete them there, then re-sync. It should delete them from your iPhone.

How can I delete all my contacts from the icloud?

I've been working with Apple's sometime, and now I have been forced to use iCloud after MobileMe.
After syncing a couple of devices, some things went quite wrong. My iCloud contacts are now a complete mess. I have lots of duplicates. And over 8000 contacts.
What I want to do is, is do a cleanup, and clear all the iCloud contacts, and import a new 'clean' address book from 1 mac to the icloud, which then in it's turn can be synced to all the devices?
Is dit possible? I've noticed deleting manually is a pain, because the browser doesn't really allow more then 50 contacts or so at a time, before the browser freezes.

Go to your Contacts on your Mac - if more than one pick the most accurate; delete any contacts you don't want. Select all the contacts, and from the File menu choose 'Export...'>'Export vCard'. Save the resultant file safely: it will be your 'master' list.
Now delete all the contacts from whichever device has the most in it. Sync with iCloud. If necessary repeat with different Macs. The result should be that the deletions sync to iCloud and in the end you finish up with empty Contacts lists everywhere.
Now you can import your saved file to one of your Macs. Make sure you import it under 'iCloud' not 'On My Mac'. Then it should propagate iCloud and any other devices. Keep the saved file at least until you are satisfied that all is in order.

I understand that you would like to store your purchases movies on an external hard drive. To do this, first you will need to download your purchased content from the cloud to the iTunes library on your computer.

Hello!
There is no need to flatten the file, but you can create a layer that merges all the content of the image, and apply the filter on that layer.
Target the topmost layer, by holding the Option and . (period) keys, then create a merged copy by holding down Command Shift Option E.

my database in another server when the connection true it connect
but if not does not work
i wanna make offline database if the server not connected it connect offline then the server is on it alter all data from the offline to the server.

There is no such functionality build into the framework. The offline data base is only for designing the db, not to have a backup db.
If you can't connect to the db the application will not work.
