How to delete wrongs contacts in my iphone 4, or classify them simply ?

I get a lot of contacts in my Iphone 4 and I want to order them, delete some, modify others, and then get synchronization with my PC...I call contacts : phone number or emails adress...I had about one thousand of my window address book...
how could I do to have à good and simple classification in différents box?
I have an old Nokia E71 it has à really firmware that allowed you to classify all yours contacts on my PC and then synchronise after...I could too working on my PC send hundred and hundred of sms or mms...
Could you please help me ?

I inadvertantly sync'd both through iTunes and MobileMe when I got my 3GS. I found several posts/apple articles about backing up and deleting my contacts on my iMac. It sounded like a hassle with risks of losing them.
I restored my phone as a new phone. I did not restore from a backup as that would have restored the duplicates.
Once it was restored I had to re-sync everything. Obviously making sure that I was only syncing through MobileMe.

  • How to delete all contacts in my iphone?

    some of you can help me? I sync a wrong list of contacts from my pc and now i would like to delete all my contacts in my iphone to sync the correct list.

    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 empty contact groups on iPhone 4

    Hi,
    I am using iCloud to store all of my contacts, calendars, etc.  About a week ago I had to restore my iPhone and when it was done resetting, I found that I had duplicate contacts in groups that fell under the 'On my iPhone' group.  Since I have all the contacts I want in my iCloud folders, I don't need these groups, especially after I deleted all of the contacts within them, leaving them empty.
    My question is how do I delete these unwanted and empty 'All on my iPhone', 'Family', 'Friends', 'School', and 'Work' groups from my phone so that they don't appear in my contacts app at all. 
    Thanks!

    Hi, I have a similar problem:
    There are groups that remain in my iTunes "Info" that won't go away even after resetting the iPhone and resetting via software update.
    I cleared out all my contacts in the address book; went into finder - applications support - address book - metadata and deleted 4 items that have a *.abcdp extention. (except the apple address)
    I even tried syncing with iCloud and using the empty iCloud database to overwrite what I have in iPhone then to my iTunes,
    I tried downloading an app called Easy groups to delete the groups on the iPhone 4s ...
    Still there are 4 empty Groups in iTunes.

  • Got a new iphone , how to delete all contacts from old iphone

    I got new iphone 3gs and now I want to delete all the contacts and photos from my old iphone 3g. Any ideas?

    Two choices: 1. Plug your 3G in, iTunes running, hit the restore button. Restore the phone as a new device. Eject when finished, do not sync. 2. Plug the phone into a wall outlet(can take several hours), then: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings.

    Sync them back to the phone from the supported application on the computer you were syncing them to, or from the cloud service, such as iCloud, or Gmail, etc. Or you can restore the phone to your last backup when the contacts were there.

  • How do I delete all contacts in my iphone?

    After trying to sync my secondary iphone with icloud I find that I have an enormorse amount of duplications.  I would like to delete all contacts from the iphone and sync with what I have on my mac.  I would prefer not to do a complete reset on the iphone for this will also create a lot of work.  Does anyone have any thought as to how I might accopmlish this?

    I believe scottishroyalty is mistaken.  As far as I know there are no contacts stored within iTunes.  He must mean that he deleted duplicate contacts within the Contacts app on his computer.
    The issue I have with sberman's solution is that after using that method to delete all contacts on your iPhone, when you turn the Contacts switch back to "ON" in your phone's iCloud settings all the old contacts are put back on your phone and you're right back where you started.
    I posted a very detailed account of my issue here:

  • How to I delete all contact on my iPhone at once. These are contacts ABOVE the contact folder that says From My Mac. I do not want to erase all of the other settings and content from my iPhone -- just the contacts.

    How to I delete all contact on my iPhone at once? These are contacts ABOVE the contact folder that says, "From My Mac."
    Someone said create a new empty folder on the computer and sync to that -- didn't work .
    Another person said, "Reset information in settings to restore to the default." That would erase ALL of the conetent I have on the phone and I do not want to erase all of the other settings and content from my iPhone -- just the contacts.
    There has to be a better way than gong through and deleting one-by-one.

    Go into Settings...Mail, Calendar and Contacts and siwtch off the Contacts section from the account in question.
    The phone should ask you if you want to keep or erase the contacts stored on you phone.
    However, if they aren't synched to anything and only exist on your iPhone, you'll have to delete them all one by one
