How do you forward a contact's details to someone else?
My previous Nokia used to allow me to select a contact & then I cld forward it (the full contact details) to someone else's phone no. (with the press of 1 button). The iPhone 3G doesn't seem to have this basic feature that I can see (all you seem to be able to do with contacts is either edit them or add them to favourites) - I had to SMS the necessary details to someone (after I'd typed them into the SMS msg) which is quite antediluvian. Anyone have any ideas?
Clearly not, and for the most part Apple should be commended for this. Their ability to look forward, not backwards, allows them to produce uncluttered, easy to use products. But sometimes their insistence on simplicity comes at the cost of essential features - such as cut and paste or MMS (the whole purpose of cell phone cameras is to allow you to send photos to other cell phones, right?) Sometimes Apple's omission of certain key features is so glaring as to seem more like the result of a shortage of Apple programmers rather than the result of some minimalist design decision or forward thinking. I believe that the absence of certain essential "old" PDA features on the iPhone, such as the ability to easily forward contact information, is an example of this.

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 not share contacts when having an iPad and iPhone when you share an apple ID
Presumably you mean you are sharing the same iCloud account? Except for turning off contacts on one of the devices, you can't stop sharing contacts. iCloud accounts are not designed to be shared among different people with different personal data.
You should each gave your own personal iCloud account, setup under your own individual AppleID.
You can still use the shared AppleID for the iTunes and AppStore purchases you already have though. -
I have three device: Macbook Pro (OSX 10.7.5) for work; an iPad and a Blackberry for mobile. I used mail, iCal, and Address Book combine with mobileme (iCloud) to exchange data such as contact, calendar and task from my Mackbook Pro to my iPad but never to Blackberry. The problem is my boss was asking me to change to Outlook 2011 for Mac because some of the email that I sent from Mail did not appear in my client's Blackberry. So how do you sync iCloud (contact, calendar, task) to Outlook 2011 for Mac? and how do you make seemless sync between iCloud to Outlook 2011 to Blackberry device or an iPad?

In IOS 7 how do you forward text messages?
In IOS 7 How do you forward a text message?
Yea, I figured it out as well but they screwed this ALL up. I get 100's of texts a day from Solar winds! NOW, to forward I have to do this on EVERY friggen text I NEED to forward to my IT staff!
Then, there's the issue on DELETING texts! In the past, you could either hit the "edit" button and then the delete the message OR swipe your finger to the right across the text (where you could see ALL your received texts) and a DELETE button would appear and you could delete texts.
I've always wanted the texts to work as the email does. You could click the edit button and then check off the text you wished to delete to make it even faster. But NO, they made it a complete pain in the a&&!
Please fix back like it was or better Apple!!!! -
How can you create a contact sheet that you can email?
I see that you can print a contact sheet but how can you make a contact sheet that you can email where receiver can open the thumbnails and view?
Hi,
You can either use Bridge and the Output workspace, or grab optional plug-ins for CS5 and run Ps on OSX in the 32 bit mode. (Or grab the excellent 3rd party script, Contact Sheet X, and run that in Ps. http://ps-scripts.sourceforge.net/ContactSheetX/csx.html).
Here's a post with links to further info:

How do you get your contacts into groups?
how do you get your contacts into groups?
When you ask a question, please include the version of Mac OS X on your computer. iOS is not a Mac operating system.
Assuming you are running OS 10.9.1:
Open Contacts. Click File in the menu bar and select New Group. Enter the name of the group in Contacts on the left.
Go back to All Contacts (on the left) then drag and drop the names you want in that group on to the folder you just named.
Repeat as necessary for other groups.
Note that the names remain, as they should, in All Contacts, even after you have added them to a group.. You can delete a group if you want. The names will still remain in All Contacts. -
How do you print a contact sheet in sequential order please?
How do you print a contact sheet in sequential or file order number please
If you have the Mac version of iWork/Numbers you can print individual sheets. My sheets are "printed" on separate pages when using the iCloud beta, so another option may be to print just a range of pages (or a single page) via the print dialog setting in Preview (or your PDF viewer app).

How do you backup IPhone Contact List to PC Computer(XP) ?
The easiest way that I have found is to open Outlook, go back to Itunes & select your phone.
Choose the 'Info' tab at the top of the screen & tick the box marked 'Sync contacts with' & choose Outlook from the drop down box.
Image attached may explain better.
