How do I form groups in contacts on the 4s

You form the groups in the supported program you are syncing your contacts with on your computer (e.g., Outlook, mac Address Book, etc.), and then sync these groups back to your phone.

  • How do I restore Groups to Contacts from time machine?

    How do I restore groups to Contacts using time machine?  I somehow managed to duplicate many groups and contacts in Contacts, so I deleted everything and tried to restore them using time machine backup  from a few days before.  It restored all my contacts, but none of my groups.  If you select a group and click restore it will restore all the contacts in the group, but not the group itself.  I had many groups with many contacts in each and would really prefer not to do this manually.  I can see the groups in the time machine backup, but cannot figure out how to restore them.  I know from researching online that with Address Books and previous operating systems you could go to ~Library/Applications Support/AddressBook  and restore the whole file, but either this operating systems hides the necessary files or Contacts is set up differently than AddressBook was.  I am using OS 10.9.5 and Contacts version 8.0 on a MacbookPro 13 inch mid 2010.

    Here is what I have tried:
    1. Finder>Go>(Option)Library>Address Book(highlighted)with files showing in right column. Opened Time Machine and Address Book folder is there. Tried to go back to several previous dates from several months ago. None will highlight in order for the Restore button to light up.
    2. Finder>Mac HD (under Devices)>(Option)Library>Address Book (same as above). Again, cannot go anywhere back in time to highlight a date for Restore button to light up.
    Note: I was able to use Time Machine to restore my Contacts with no problem. However, they are All Contacts only and did not restore my Groups. I do know how to make groups again and highlight and drag them back, but wanted to see if there was a way to restore the groups. I will post another question as to why my Time Machine won't let me restore the Address Book as well as the Contacts. Thank you for your time and patience.

    Use Mail Scripts. Its Add Addresses function will collect all the addresses from all selected messages and allow you to select the ones you want to add and allow you to create groups as you go.

    How to a link a contact to a group

    You have to use a 3rd party app to do this.  Several are available, including ABContacts and Speed Names.  For texting, these don't support iMessage but you can always start a group message to a set of contacts on your phone and then save to conversation to send a future message to the same list of contacts.

  • How do I import groups of contacts?

    I have several different contact groups of 200-400 contacts stored in CSV files. None of the names are the same and I want to keep them separate. I wish to upload them as groups or separate folders within contacts so that I can send to one group at a time. When I tried to upload them it copied them into my main contact file and then I could store them in a group, but when I load the second one the main contact file becomes a super-set of both and I have no way to separate out only the second group or subsequent groups. How can I copy them into contacts as separate entities?

  • How to make new Group in contacts

    in IOS5 and iPhone 4S, how do you make a new Group in contacts?

    Hi Friend,
    In your PC, open your iCloud from website. In contacts, clck in the Red icon. It will open your contact groups. There have your All contact Group. If you click in "+" icon, you can create your own contact groups.
    To add your contacts in the new Group List, you open your All Contact Group, click and hold a contact and drag to the New Group Contact...
    Yeah!

  • How do you create new groups within Contacts on the iPad?

    Can you create new groups within Contacts directly from the iPad, iPhone,or do you have to do it on the computer first?

    The easiest way is to get the app called group e mail.  There are a couple of others as well.  There is a way to do it on your computer, and sync it, but I find that personally frustrating.  :).  Save yourself the aggrevation, and get the app, that works pretty well.

  • How to make a group in contacts to send them all the same text?

    I am wondering if there is a way to make a group in contacts so I can send a text and have it go to all of the people in that group at once.  Help please.

    I don't think so. Search for an app in App Store or create a message with all contacts you want and use this to send message to this group of people.

  • How to manageimported users, groups, and computers in the "Magic Triangle"

    How do I manage imported users, groups, and computers? Server Preferences versus Workgroup Manager? I can import users and groups with the former but it offers limited configurable options. I can view all users. groups. and computers (from active directory) in the latter, but it does not designate which accounts have been imported.
    I've got a magic triangle setup, with my users, groups and computers in Windows Active Directory, and my MacOS X snow leopard server setup as a directory master, abd bound to AD as well. I wish to apply group policy like settings to my Mac OS X leopard and snow leopard clients.
    Here's a summary of my goals:
    1. Time Machine Storage for mac users when they logon to Mac OS X computers.
    2. Automount group shares located on the Mac OS X Server.
    3. Redirect user desktop and document folders to user shares either on the Mac OS X server or my Windows file server.
    4. Automount a custom folder (for each user) located either on the Mac OS X server or my Windows file server.
    5. Setup Mac OS X server as a printer server with quotas for all mac and windows computer users.
    Goal #1 appears to be working. "need help with the rest. Thanks

    I'm not sure you want to import users to use the magic triangle properly. I think importing creates 'Augmented Records' - the user icons have blue dots.
    The principle is this…
    Bind the server to Active Directory (AD) & create an Open Directory master (OD). This can be done from Server Admin, in the OD section, via the change button.
    Then you use Workgroup Manager, set the viewing directory (tiny little globe in top left) to use LDAP records on the server - LDAPv3/127.0.0.1. Authenticate (lock on right of toolbar) add a group, then switch to to its Members tab, click + Then change the user list to show the AD records & add the AD users to the OD group. It sounds weird & wrong, but it is how it works.
    You are never modifying the AD records, just assigning a group to the users in OD. It's why the clients need to bind to AD & OD.
    From there you can set the Managed prefs (MCX) for the members of the OD group. It also helps to add a guest computer account to OD to assign computer prefs based on the macs that bind to the server - it's in the File menu when you select the computes list in OD.
    I hope that's clear, not sure I can help with the other tasks, but they tend to fall into place once you have the complex start in place.

  • How to make mac address gmail contacts overwrite the ones on my HTC Android phone - I don't want to sync - that makes the phone scramble and overwrite my computer.  I want to remove or correctly overwrite the phone information as I have done with iPad.

    Please help - I am beginning to hate google, my android and gmail.  I have just wasted about 5 hours in a futile attempt to try and get my current Mac contacts list on my computer updated to my phone. I'm not that computer literate but I have looked up about google phone accounts, vCards, backing up contact lists, what SD on phones are, and God know what else.  I have searched the internet and tried all sorts of things and I still have a mac with a now correct contact list (after the iPad contacts scrambled it and I spent ages manually correcting them all) and a phone with an outdated contact list.  If you try and sync them the phone wants to overwrite the computer one just like the iPad did (would it be so **** hard to give you a choice on the phone as to which overwrites which!).  After all the  advice on the internet failed, I got the bright idea to completely delete all the ones on the phone and if it was empty of contacts the computer one could be exported to it.  Not as simple as it sounds.  First I backed up (I think) my computer contacts list. Numerous futile attempts to go through the phone options to globally delete all contacts did not work - they gave a warning message and you got to choose whether to continue or not, I did, and it looked like it might be working as it changed to zero data on the phone, but then they all popped back up again from God knows where from, but without their little added bits like pictures of the people.  So, I tried un- syncing the darn phone from  google and then deleting them globally.  That didn't work either.  I tried deleting them  all again and again and google would crash and not let me do it. It is absolutely ridiculous that this is so damned difficult to do (especially if you are not computer savvy) and that you cannot choose which device overwrites which when syncing. I gave up and ticked sync with Google again (not that it appears to do anything to the phone contact list at all).  So after 5 hours I am back to where I started from, with a phone showing all the same  incorrect contacts (but the pictures are back), which wants to overwrite the computer if I try any sort of sync, and no way to fix them except go into each one manually and try and do it - and how long would that take (and I've already wasted hours and hours fixing scrambled contact lists!).  I think I will do a print out of the computer contact list and just carry it around with me like an address book - so much bloody simpler.  So now I have a headache, am fighting an overwhelming urge to hurl the phone at the wall,  hoping for a heat wave to evaporate icloud things and am wishing I had bought an iPhone instead of the stupid HTC Android.  Can any one offer me any suggestions on how to get rid of the contacts on my phone and replace them with the ones in my mac address list - hopefully after that  they can sync to their hearts content and not stuff everything up again (which was why I unsynced google a while back - because the phone's list kept making stuff ups and scrambling and duplicating my computer contacts list).  Am I the only one on the planet having this problem or is there someone else out there who has had it and solved it.

    Without "pretending" to be yourself on the other phone (change settings) there's nothing else you can do.
    iOS devices are meant to be single user and can't view iCloud.com the same way a Mac or PC can do.
    You need to find a desktop or laptop machine (Mac or PC) to log in at iCloud.

  • How to create a group of some of the items of a page programatically.

    Hi,
    I am able to create a group of all Items of a page successfully. But I want to create a group of some of the item of the page.
    Below is my code snape:
    InterfacePtr<ICommand> groupItemsCmd(CmdUtils::CreateCommand(kGroupCmdBoss));
    ASSERT(groupItemsCmd);
    if (!groupItemsCmd) { 
    return;}
    InterfacePtr<IGroupCmdData> groupCmdData ( groupItemsCmd, UseDefaultIID());
    groupCmdData->Set(itemsOnPageNew);
    ErrorCode status = CmdUtils::ProcessCommand(groupItemsCmd);
    if (status != kSuccess){ASSERT_FAIL(
    "kGroupCmdBoss failed"); 
    break;}
    So how I can create UDList of some of the control of the page .
    Any help will be appreciable.
    Thanks,

    I have done below code to get tag name but xmlReferenceData object is blank so tagname is blank.
    UIDRef pageItemRef=itemsOnPage->GetRef(pageItemIndex);
    InterfacePtr<IXMLReferenceData> xmlReferenceData(pageItemRef, DefaultIID());
    ASSERT(xmlReferenceData);
    if 
    (!xmlReferenceData) {
