How to delete individual contacts on iphone 6

I just got a new iphone 6 with the lastest update.  There are all kinds of contacts on there that I am not familiar with.  How do I delete them?  I looked under the individual contacts using edit.  There used to be a great big red Delete Contact button, but not anymore.  Can anyone tell me how to delete these?   Thank you for your time.

Put your finger to the right and slide to the left and a red "delete" options should appear. Before doing this, make sure that you don't share iCloud account with another family member or so since this may cause issues for them since the contacts will be deleted for them as well.

  • How to delete multiple contacts in iphone 5s

    Is there an easy way to delet multiple contacts on iphone 5s annd 5c. I can delete them one at a time, but wondered if theres a way to do some of them but not all.

    No, there's no mass delete or partial mass delete option.
    If these are iCloud based contacts, you may find it easier to go to www.icloud.com and delete them there.

    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 to delete a contact group on the iPhone?

    Hello!
    I've been searching for a way to delete a contact group on the iPhone, but I was not able to find one. The only answers I have found tried to tell me that it is not possible to do this on the iPhone. But I can hardly believe that the people at Apple would be so stupid not to include such a thing, as there are iPhone users who do not own a computer. How should they manage their contacts?
    So, would someone please be so kind and tell me how to delete a contact group on the device?
    TIA,
    Jan

  • How do i import contacts from iPhone to address book?

    how do i import contacts from iphone to address book?

    Ok, I knew it was a long shot.  The merge prompt normally is only available when you first sync your device.  I'm not sure how things got out of sync in the first place, but you may have to manually delete the contacts from your phone that you don't want there at this point.  I would try adding a new contact on your phone followed by sync to confirm that it's picking up new contacts though.
    Unfortunately I need to go now, so if you're still having problems I suggest your start a new post in the forum to see if someone else can help.  Good luck!

  • How to delete restored contacts in iCloud?

    I've encountered an issue that's a 180 from the typical inquiry:  how to delete restored contacts.
    Several months ago I deleted many of my iCloud Contacts as the list was becoming unwieldy.  (Used as a contact management database for business, it was numbering in the thousands and slow to search, load, etc.)  All of my devices were synced and the process was smooth.
    Until yesterday, when out of the blue, all of the deleted contacts returned to iCloud, iPhone and Address Book.  No settings from the day prior had been changed.
    So, is there a way to re-delete all of the unwanted contacts?  Yes, I can go back and manually delete all of them, but that's time consuming, and what's to prevent them from magically returning?

    Hey mzhill78
    Remove you icloud contact information on all your IOS devices, go to the icloud setting on you ios device and turn off the addressbook syncing, when it asks you "do you want to remove keep the address on your ips device you say NO...  So now your MacBook is the only thing syncing too the icloud.
    Go to Addresbook and look for the menu option find duplicates.
    After that wait for your laptop to sync this too icloud.  to check give it about 2 min depending on how many changes log into your icloud account at www.icloud.com and check too see if the syncing has updated whats in the cloud.
    If it has then urn on your addressbook syncing in iclouud settings on your IOS devices and all should be back too normal.
    Hope it helps,
    If this has sloved your problem please mark it as Solved thank you..

  • How do i get contacts from iphone to merge with outlook contacts

    how do i get contacts from iphone to merge with outlook contacts

    If Outlook already has a munch of contacts, do I need to delete them all (all but 1 unique) to sync correctly?
    I have and iPhone ith up to date contacts, and I have outlook with some of the same contacts with older info. When I sync, outlook is OK, but I get a lot of copies of the same contact on my iPhone. Now I'm not entirely sure which are the up-to-date contacts and which aren't (and there's hundred of contacts to go through).
    ...For future reference, is there a way to to send the iPhone contacts to Outlook without adding crap to my phone? Amidst the sync process I noticed and option for conflicting files and choose the "always use phone" but still wound up with a contact mess of mixed old and new on the phone.
