How do I permentantly delete a contact from my iphone

I deleted a contact, however when I go to type in a contact for a message this deleted contact shows up too! How can I delete it? I have tried to reset and still pops up!

Another option is to email just the text of the message to yourself and print that, or to use 3rd party software such as PhoneView (Mac only) or Touch Copy (PC or Mac).

    HOW CAN I SYNC ALL MY CONTACTS FROM MY IPHONE TO ICLOUD?

    Go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account if you haven't already done so, turn Contacts on and choose Merge with iCloud when prompted.  If you are syncing contacts from an external account (Gmail, Yahoo, exchange, etc.) you will need to take additional steps to add them.  Let me know if that's the case.

    How do i delete all the contacts in my iphone 4?

    Okay so I've been playing around with it. There are way too many places to turn on and turn off contact syncing!  It's really absurd.  Not only do you have to enable it through system preferences on the iPhone and on the Mac and other devices, but you also have to make sure "Default account" in system prefs is set to "iCloud' and not exchange, and you have to make sure to go to Address Book preferences on the Mac and check "Enable" under "iCloud" and then manually move your contacts to the "iCloud" slot (in address book) from the "On My Mac" slot.  And that's just what I found before I finally got it to work.
    ***?  Anyway, it's working now for me.

  • HT4859 I deleted some contacts from my iphone 5 which then deleted the same contacts from my iphone 4s which I use for work, I cannot retrieve these contacts via icloud or itunes on my laptop

    How do I retreive my contacts that I deleted from my iphone 5 and these contacts were then deleted from my iphone 4s which I use for work. I cannot retreive them from icloud or via itunes on my laptop

    If you are sharing the same iCloud account any data you sync with the account (such as contacts) is merged, and any actions you take on one device (such as deleting contacts) also takes place on the device(s) sharing the account.  To fix this, you need to be on separate iCloud accounts.
    One of you needs to migrate their iCloud data to a separate iCloud account/ID.  In your situation, this might be able to do with his phone.  To do this, go to Settings>iCloud on his phone, tap Delete Account, choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted.  Then sign back in with a separate ID and choose Merge to upload the data to the new account.
    Once you are on separate accounts, you can sign into each account separately on icloud.com and delete the other person's data from each account.
    To get the contacts on you iPad into your husband's iPhone and iCloud account, make sure his phone has Contacts turned to On in Settings>iCloud.  Download the app My Contacts Backup on your iPad and use this to back up your contacts as an attachment to an email.  Send this email to your husband.  Have him open it on his phone and tap the attachment to import the contacts to his phone, and to his iCloud account.

  • How can I retrieve deleted text messages from my iphone 5

    Somebody deleted a string of text messages from my iPhone 5 and I want to know if they can be retrieved and if so how? I'm new to the iPhone as this is my first apple product.  I am still not even sure on how to use my iTunes and so forth.  Please help as the string of messages was very important!! Thank you so very much!! Tracy

    SMS text messages are backed up with the iPhone - whether it's locally or to iCloud. If you've already written over the backup that had them (as in, backed up after the delete) then they're gone.
    If you still have a backup available from a time where you had the messages on your iPhone, all you have to do is erase the iPhone and restore from that backup.
    "Retrieve deleted messages from iPhone" is simple as pie.

  • How do I back up my contacts from my iPhone to iTunes

    My mobile phone carrier (optus) is preparing us for the delivery of the IPhone 4, and to get ready they are changing us from our old SIM card to a new "MicroSIM". I am confused with step 1...
    Step 1. Connect your current iPhone to iTunes to back up your contacts as you will need to move them from your old SIM to the new SIM (which I have ready to go)....How do i do this? Am i just syncing my contacts with my yahoo address book. This doesn't seem right.
    the other steps I think I'm okay with...
    2. swap the SIM over, and follow some steps with my phone carrier
    3. sync iPhone to Itunes again to restore contacts
    4. SIM swap is complete, and this new "microSIM" is ready to go when the new iPhone 4 is delivered.
    Your help is appreciated with Step 1.....thanks

    thanks for your reply, but Im still a little confused.
    I do currently have an iPhone 3G, and they want me to use theis new SIM card until delivery of my new iPhone 4.
    So, the contacts that i currently have in my phone are different to my contacts in my yahoo account. My yahoo account basically just has all email addresses and that's it.
    So, do I have to update my yahoo contact list first, then "sync"? Does this then mean I've backed them up also?
    Or, when I sync, will it take my contacts from my phone into iTunes and my yahoo account??

  • How do I transfer my Favorite Contacts from my iPhone 4S to my iPhone 5?

    I have transfered all of my contacts from my old iPhone to my new one (using my ActiveSync account), but my favorite contacts are now blank. Is there any way to transfer them over to my new phone, via iTunes or possibly a 3rd party app? Or do I have to go through and mark them as favorite manually?

    OK. First, sync your old phone to create a current backup. Then on your new phone: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. Once complete...will take just a minute or so...follow the directions here:
