Help!!! My husband by accident synced his account under my account and has merged all of our contacts. In the process of fixing the mixup has deleted contacts on both phones. How do I restore the contact list from the original contact list.

I hope that you aren't complaining about dropped calls INSIDE your condo because no amount of switching or upgrading devices will solve that.
VZW will not guarantee service inside of any structure. There are just too many factors. If the problem is inside then you might want to look at one of the following:
1.) Network Extender (may cause issues for others in a condo or apartment style setting)
2.) A Google Voice Number (Free with a Gmail email address), downloading Google Hangouts Dialer and forwarding your calls to the GVN so that you can make and receive calls over Wi-Fi.

How do I delete the Contacts Icon put on the 2G and 3G iPhones?

How do I delete the Contacts on my 2G iPhone? I want to pass the 2G on and all my phone numbers are there and the Contacts won't deltete!

Back up your Address Book on your Mac. Delete al the contacts. Sync the phone. All your conatats will be gone
Unplug the phone. Restore your contacts into Address Book.
Eaglesflight1258 is right. You can't delete the Contacts icon from the phone, and even if you could, pressing the phone button brings up the same contacts list. There's only one list of names and numbers, and both buttons use it.
An alternative strategy is to get the other stuff to the recipient by copying the files onto his/her computer so they can be synced with the phone; then Erase everything from the phone.

I've a new account on iMac. When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar. WWhen I start keying in a name, it comes up with the address. How do I engage the contact list from the email?

I've a new account on iMac. When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar, which would allow me to select the persons I want to include on the distribution of the email. When I start keying in a name in the email, it comes up with the person's address, which shows it is synced. How do I engage the contact list from the email like I do on my old account (where a contact list icon shows up, along with the "attach" and other icons) ?

With the New Message window open, go to the View menu and select "Customize Toolbar...".
In the screen that opens, drag the item labelled "Address" into the Toolbar area of the New Message window, then click the "Done" button.
That item should be then added to the Toolbar for the New Message window.
Note that the main Mail window and the New Message window (as well as the separate message window if you open a message that way) use different toolbars - the settings/inclusions for one do not carry over to another.

How can I get the contact list on my iPhone to appear in my iPad Air?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Please try the following…
First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

Are you syncing via iTunes? Do you want to erase everything on the phone, or just the contacts? If syncing via iTunes, just have it sync to an empty contact list is one way.

How do you delete the contacts from "All on My Mac"

How do you delete the contacts from "All on My Mac"? i have moved everything to iCloud and want to delete the contacts on my mac.

Signing out will not delete them from iCloud. Do it and read the message. It will give you the option to store address book contacts locally or just in iCloud. It will tell you that they will be available in iCloud when you sign back in.
In Addition, signing your mac out of iCloud does not sign your other devices out of iCloud. Any info in iCloud will still be available to other devices.
You can also access iCloud from the website https://www.icloud.com , which you can access from any computer at any time.

How do I delete a Contact List?

I added a Hotmail account to my phone some time ago, and for some reason it imported all the contacts from that account.
I no longer wish to use the account so I deleted the email account from the phone, but that is not deleted the associate contacts.
When I find one of the contacts, I go into Options and I see it is assicated with the 'Contact List' of that said email account.

Open Contacts on the BlackBerry smartphone.
Press the Menu key and click Options.

The following prompt appears: Wireless synchronization for <username>@gmail.com is not enabled. Wipe contact list anyway?
Click Yes.

When you're on the screen you 're talking about, if you press the menu button (bottom left) that brings up a "Delete" button. Is this what you're asking?

How can I delete the reading list in Safari on iPad 2?

I would like to delete the reading list in Safari on my iPad 2. How do I have to do it?

You can't delete the reading list portion of the bookmarks window. It is built into the app so you can't delete it. That is not optional.
You can delete items from the reading list by swiping Across the item in the reading list to bring up a red Delete button. Then tap that button to delete the item from the list.

How do you delete a contact list?

How can I delete a whole contact group? I have 3 contact groups on my iPhone and I want only one. I need to find out how to delete any 2 of them and then fix up the remaining one.

The only way to delete contacts from the iPhone is one by one.
If you are syncing your iPhone with your Mac and using the Address Book application for syncing contact information, the best way to mass delete contacts from the iPhone is by deleting the contacts with the Address Book application on your Mac and then syncing your iPhone when finished.
The sync process for contact information, calendar events, and bookmarks is a sync by definition - bidirectional between the iPhone and the supported applications on your Mac.

How do I transfer the contact list from my phone to another on my family plan

Hello,
I have a Samsung Rogue as the primary phone on my account. My dad also has a phone on my plan, and just upgraded to the Accolade. He wants to add my contact list to his phone. Is there a way that I can transfer my list over to his phone?
Thanks.

I figured, why start a new thread?
Question: Is there a way to get the contact list from my old intensity phone?
that is:
because it went through the washing machine. ( I know!)
the screen doesn't work, but when I plug it into the USB port, the laptop recognizes it, and the call key doesn't work properly to call out, or obviously, anything else.
is there any way to get the contacts from the phone into the verizon backup assistant, or is there any other way? like taking it to the store?
thanks.
PS. I just got my new DroidX and would really like to have those contacts...ya know?

I lost all my contact list after i deleted the me accout from my mail list.How can i recover the contact list ?

Hi, kindly let me know if i can recovered my contact list after i deleted "mobile Me (which has been expired) account form my I-phone list

The contacts should be available in a supported address book app for syncing contacts with a former MobileMe and now with an iCloud account. This has been in the works for a year and you should have received an email - several emails about MobileMe going away and how to make the switch to a freeiCloud account.
