How do I make groups in contacts

My email is GMAIL.COM.  Is it possible to make contact groups for my IPAD/Iphone?

If you are syncing your contacts with Google, you'll have to create the contact groups on Google's website.  If you are syncing them with iCloud, you can create contact groups on icloud.com from your computer, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfba73c71.
The only way to create contact groups on your phone is to us an app such as Speed Names.

  • 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.

    Not natively in the built in contacts app. There are apps that will let you create contacts groups ... MailShot and another that I know of is called Group Email with Attachments.
    You can check those out in the app store if you like.

    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.

    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.

    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 you make groups after making the first one. I did that but after reentering couldnt make any other groups. Only had i group of 1 with icons down the right side.

    I want to make groups/ i made 1 group of 1/I went back & I had that group but couldnt make more/ I saw was page that hadnt been pinned yet as group/all other tab were shown on the right sid/I tried to pin the page that was shown in the tab group/then the one group(of 1) no longer showed up/Now I have a blank box with all the icons on the far right side.

    Wow!
    I'm not going to be of much use regarding answers but I sure am going to watching this post like a hawk for any replies. My package is a slightly diluted version of this and I do find the BBtalk and data limits hard to make the most of as well.
    If nothing else this totally highlights how complicated BT have managed to make their packages.
    A cynic would assume that they are trying to catch us out at every step and for us to either be overspending or not really getting the moneys worth.

  • 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?
