Right click the contact and choose delete. To do multiples at one time, click each while holding down the command key, then right click and delete.

  • How do I delete contacts from the address book?

    Purchased a new MacBook Pro and iphone4 yesterday.  The phone has several hundred contacts that I no longer need.  How do I deleted the contacts that I don't need anylonger from the address book on my MacBook?  There are still several hundred that I need to keep.  I don't see an easy way to delete them on the computor.  I can't imagine that I'd have to go through one by one on my iphone.........seriously?

    On the MBpro, click on the card to delete or mark several in a row by holding Shift down/up arrow.  Then hit the delete key on the keyboard.

  • How to make an appointment with a contact from the address book directly to iCal

    What is the easiest way to make an appointment with a contact from the address book. My idea is that once you identify a contact down the bottom where it has Text message Share contact, add to favorites it would be nice if it had make appointment in iCal. The open up iCal to todays date and go from there with all the relevant details?

  • How do i get contacts from my address book in entourage to upload to iCloud?

    How do I get contacts from my address book in entourage to upload to icloud and so onto my ipad??  can they get to the ipad some other way??

    Thanks for the reply Julian, but I tried that and the only cards that show up in that "contacts" folder are the ones that come with the iPod: ipodcreatedsample.vcf and 2 others.
    I brought this to the genius bar at my local Apple store, and they couldn't figure out how to do it, so this one is definitely a challenge. The genius bar advice was: "try to find a solution online." Aaack.

  • How do you bcc groups from the address book in MAC OS X?

    I am tryign to do a group email from the address book in MAC OS X, everytime I highlight and drag the contacts to my email they don't attached. The only way it appears to work is when I email group but this goes into the TO field.
    Any ideas in what I can do?

    Mea culpa.  Yes, the Cc/Bcc disclosure button IS to the left. I mis-typed that. (stupid keyboard!)
    I'm at a loss as to why this is not working for you.
    I will tell you the versions of the players involoved that I am using are:
    • OS X 10.8.1
    • Mail 6.0
    • Contacts (Address Book) 7.0
    And while I realize that you are running OS X 10.7.4, the process has been similar for some time now.
    I would run Software Update and make sure that my System, Mail and Address Book apps are all up to date. That is NOT to say you should upgrade to Mt. Lion, just ensure that there are no outstanding updates available for your current setup.
    Then run Disk Utility and perform the Repair Permissions routine on your startup disk. When that process is finished, reboot your machine and run the Mail app again.
    It would be nice if it's just a permissions issue or can be fixed with a software update.  Let us know if any of this helps.

  • How to print out a contact from the address book?

    I must be missing something very basic.  I select a contact in my address book.  Now, I want to print it... you know things like the contact's name, address, phone number, etc.  When I try printing, I get a blank page.  In the print dialog box, it continues to say "No Addresses ()" below the page preview, this even when I've selected one or multiple contacts in my address book.  Please help!  Thanks!!

  • How do I move contacts from 1 address book to another?

    I have tried to "select" then drag and drop contacts from the Mac OS x address book, and vice versa, to the personal address book but nothing happens.

  • Printing contacts from the address book

    Is there an easy way to print out a master copy of my address book? I don't want to print card by card, I would like to print in list form, alphabetically.

    A related question:
    I would like to print out a master copy of my address book, as a collection of business cards, say 8 per page (or something like that). A simple list is too hard to read (as I have important info on the "note" field, that can be a little lengthy). A card per page is not practical, as I have too many entries. I used to use Palm Desktop on PC, and it does the job amiably. I wonder if it is possible on Mac.

  • I have an iphone4 and i can only hear calls when i use speakerphone.  I'm trying a master reset but how do i back up my contacts from my address book??

    I have an iphone4 and I can only hear calls when I put them on speakerphone.  The people I'm on the phone with can hear me I just cant hear them.  I am about to try a master reset but how do i backup my contacts from my address book? Does itunes do that when i backed up the rest of the stuff on my phone?

    Back it up in iTunes! Just make a backup of the entire device but make sure you check sync contacts and the option to add contacts from phone to address book on computer.

  • I deleted a contact from my address book but when I go into text message it is still there. How do I fully delete this contact? It is only in my text messages not in my address book.

    I deleted a contact from my address book but when I go into text message it is still there. How do I fully delete this contact? It is only in my text messages not in my address book.

    I don't believe there's much you can do about it...have a look at the "More Like This" pane on the right side of this page.
    One way though to eliminate the issue (although not a very good way) is to restore the phone as new.

  • HT201412 what do you do when your phone numbers no longer have the contact persons name just a number. Also names are missing from the address  book where contacts are.

    what do you do when your phone numbers no longer have the contact persons name just a number. Also names are missing from the address  book where contacts are.

    I, too, love everything about my phone. The other day I tried to crash my Z10 by running multiple apps and having videos running in the background. Do you think my Z10 showed any signs of slowing down? Nothing doing! It ran as smooth as silk. I'm very impressed.
    Cheers.
