    How do you delete all contacts on iPhone 4S? I have tried to sync and end up w/duplicates and now triplicates. 4,000 contacts have now turned into 12,000 contacts!! I "upgraded" to Lion and hate it - it was so much easier before. I managed to delete on MacBook (to start from scratch there), but cannot delete from iphone or ipad. I am so frustrated! Please help

    Hi Cynthia!  If you are syncing from something like Gmail you can go into the iPhones Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>(account you are syncing)> and turn off contacts. It will ask you if you want to delete them from your phone - just click delete.  Exit Settings and turn phone off by power button (not all the way OFF).  Then re-open Settings>mail, Contacts, Calendars>(account you are syncing)> and turn Contacts back on - This is where you need to be careful - When you turn contacts back on you will be prompted to delete or save the contacts already on your phone. CLICK DELETE.  You should now have only your synced contacts on your phone!  Hope it helps!

  • 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.

  • TA38622 how do you delete a contact name and phone number from this?  i have deleted it from my regular contacts, but it remains in a text memory when i begin to type the beginning of a name

    How do I delete a contact name and phone number from my texting memory?  I have deleted this contact from my regular contact information; however when I text and begin to text a contact beginning with the 1st letter of the name I had deleted, it brings up the old, deleted contact information in my texting history only.

    You would have to restore as new.

  • How do you delete the Contact history in the Droid X

    thats for recent calls...what I am talkin about is the contact list...there are 3 swipe windows when you call up the contact list, its starts off in the middle displaying your contcts, swipe to the right and it shows social networking updates, swipe all the to the left and it has contact history which shows all the history for your contacts, whether its phone calls, texts, facebook updates, facebook messages, everything for every contact, I have facebook messages from months ago that come up because its linked to facebook. Even when you text and delete the conversation, it still displays all the texts in the history for that contact, I want that deleted out and there is no way to do it.
    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 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.

  • TS3276 how do you delete a contact from your mail address list?

    i dont know that many details about my mac.. Geez! I just am trying to delete addresses from my mail that are no longer good, to avoid the 'unable to send' messages and I can't find any place that says do that, nor can i delete with keyboard, nor with trying to drag them to the trash.  Can anyone help me?  One would think it would be very simple.
    PS: In language I can understand? thank you thank you thank you. !

    Address Book in 10.6.8 (which your post says you are using) has a Delete Card item in the Edit menu. If you want to get rin of a complete card, use it. If you have more than one address on an individual's contact card as here:
    click the Edit button at the bottom of the card to put it in edit mode:
    then click the minus sign beside any that you want rid of.
    Make sure that you clear them from the Previous Recipients window too.

    How do you delete contacts from your phone for good without having it appear in the messages app?

    Hi tieyce,
    You need to hook up your iPhone, select it under Devices, and then go to the Photos tab on the Device Profile, and uncheck Sync Photos, then sync. That should delete all photos that were downloaded from your computer.
    When you say you have 2 separate albums of the same sets of pictures, what 2 albums are you referring to? Can you provide us with names of those "duplicate" albums?

  • HT5465 how can i delete a contact ( or all contacts ) from i phone ios7 ?

    how can i delete a contact ( or all contacts ) from i phone - ios7.0.2  ?

    The fact that those internal contacts lists aren't editable is an irritation to many. I've submitted feedback to Apple several times on this, asking that in a future OS release they should either
    Provide a way to directly access that list of 'Recent Addressees' and Delete unwanted ones, or
    If not that, then at least mode it so that addressses selected from that list bubble up to the top, therefore over time moving the unused ones down out of sight.
    Other have added their own ideas, and the more they hear on this topic the more likely a future fix will become. If you feel that you would like the change, then put together your best case for it and make your wishes known directly to apple via their established Feedback links:
