How do I remove duplicate contact groups?
Somehow I have my email account -and- "Google", yet only one google internet account set up. Both have the same contacts, so I have two appearing for every contact in my book, which is rather annoying. I can not find a way to delete the other account at all.

Having duplicate contacts on your phone can be frustrating ernie1! We are more than happy to assist in removing duplicates the easiest way possible. Did you install an application that caused the contacts to duplicate? What functions were being done on the phone when you noticed the contacts duplicated?
Thank You,

This is usually the result of syncing between icloud and itunes, stop syncing contacts through one of them.
iCloud: Resolving duplicate Contacts after setting up iCloud Contacts
In some cases, data can appear to be duplicated, but actually your client application or device stored your data in multiple locations or data stores.Instead of attempting to remove or edit duplicate Contacts , you should verify if and how your Contacts are duplicated .

Remove duplicate contact groups
I have hundreds of duplicate contact groups in my icloud contacts and on my macbook pro. I cannot find help with this. I am using Mavericks.
I found a solutiuon that worked for me from a different thread posted below. The only thing I did differently was I moved the whole directory /AddressBook to my desktop. When I launched Contacts after that, I saw that OS X created a new AddressBook directory. I then went to iCloud and switched Contacts back on and boom I had all my updated contacts from iCloud WITHOUT duplicate groups!
Back up all data.
Quit Contacts or Address Book if it’s running. If you use iCloud, uncheck the box marked Contacts in the iCloud preference pane.
Triple-click the text on the line below to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard (command-C):
~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/Metadata
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V), and press return.
A Finder window will open with a folder selected. Move the selected folder to the Desktop, leaving the window open for now.
Relaunch the application and test. If there’s no improvement, quit and put back the item you moved, overwriting the newer one that may have been created in its place. Otherwise, delete the item. -

How do I remove duplicate contacts on iPhone and iCloud
I have duplicate contacts in my icloud account.
How do I get rid of them?You can delete the duplicates on icloud.com, or you can try using one of the apps that say they can identify and merge duplicate contacts. (If you have a Mac, you can do this by opening your contacts and going to Card>Look for Duplicates.)

How do I remove Facebook contacts from my Contacts list on my 4S??? I've already gone into iCloud settings and Facebook is not even an option to turn off and I've gone into "Groups" in my contact list and Facebook is not there either. How do I stop this??
Hmmmm...maybe try deleting them again (I know it's a pain) and then doing a manual icloud backup (unless you already did this). Icloud may be putting them back on there. I never allowed FB to put the contacts on my phone lol. Also try going into Privacy and Contacts...make sure FB isn't on in there. Might be a few other spots to check under settings to make sure too. And...you might want to try deleting the FB app, do a icloud backup, and then reinstall FB

How do I remove a contact from a group?
Warning: the method Demo mentioned seems to delete the contact off your device entirely (and off of all your devices if you're using iCloud for your contacts), not just remove them from the group. I haven't found a way to remove them from the group while keeping them on the device.

How do i remove duplicate songs on my ipod and in my library
how do i remove duplicate songs on my ipod and in my library
Apple's official advice on duplicates is here: Find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership, or that sometimes the same file can be represented by multiple entries in the library and that deleting one and recycling the file will break the other.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to and should cope sensibly when the same file has been added via multiple paths.
Fix the library, then syncing should fix the device.

How do I resolve duplicate contacts
How do I resolve duplicate contacts in Address Book? I've used the Look for duplicates feature, but nothing shows up and there are clearly duplicates in my address book. I am using iCloud. Though didn't connect my desktop until recently. My iPhone and iPad are fine. However, the address book has duplicate entries for all my contacts.
The duplicate list you were seeing were contacts stored locally on the computer. Since you had not other accounts listed, maybe you had the ON MY Mac enabled in the list before, possibly syncing to yahoo, etc.
If you had gone to the main page in the address book window in the accounts/user and group window, you should have seen ON My Mac, iCloud, and any other accounts or groups. You probably had All Contacts selected and were seeing duplicates. You could have just selected the On My Mac contacts or iCloud Contacts and you should not have seen the duplicates.
It's a bit confusing since each Lion update changed something in the way iCloud worked with address book.
But at least you have it resolved. -
