How to quickly delete contact in message screen without going all the way to contacts screen?

If I get a message from Jessica and I decide to delete her as a contact in my iphone how can I do that without having to go back to my contacts list that contains 6500 entries and delete her? thanks

yeah forget it. iphone is so stupid. on blackberry I can just go directly to her name and delete her right there whereas on iphone if u go directly to her name and click edit there will be no option to delete her contact. u need to exit that screen, go to main menu then go to contacts then find her name again (among my 6500 contacts; i actually found an easier way so now I copy paste that person's name and find it easier that way in contacts) and then click edit and then go to the bottom of that edit page and click delete. very annoying and slow. some iphone feature are just inexplainably slow, long and annoying.

    That does happen.  It depends on how hard the server is being hit, as well as the connection speed of your system.  If you are on a windows system, you will want to disable any antivirus or firewall software during the download.

  • HT5085 I need to delete a movie that isn't downloaded all the way on my 5s

    I have an iPhone 5s I've got a movie that I have downloaded but not all the way and I want to delete it I've swiped it left and right I've held it down still nothing please help

    Thanks for the reply but it doesn't do anything if I try and delete it as you said.  I go to the store, it shows it there but won't let me do anything with it & when I try & download or update anything now it just shows the app as blank no photo & won't update or download just says 'update' I click to update & nothing happens. it shows as a grey square on the main screen and says waiting. Well life is too short I will have passed away by the time anything actually decides to work! Getting really fed up with ' Apple'.

  • If I establish a second (different) Zotero account on the same PC, how do I set it to be blank without destroying all the records in the other account?

    I have long had a Zotero account and it works well. I recently merged it into a group account with a few other people; we are sharing the same set of references. Now I want to set up a personal account for different purposes, perhaps eventually becoming a different group. When I try to set up the new user name and password, all the same reference items still show. How do I start with a blank account for the new user name without erasing the items in the previous account?

    I don't know how the Zotero add-on works, but if you want complete isolation, you could create a separate Firefox profile. Each profile has its own settings and add-ons, so unless Zotero creates a shared storage for all profiles, you will be starting fresh in the new profile.
    For more information on using profiles and how to create them, check out these articles:

    Note: If that's not convenient, you could check with Zotero on whether they have a solution.

  • How to move new app to my iPhone without erasing all the others

    Hi, I bought a new app for my iPhone while in iTunes on my computer, assuming I could move it to my iPhone. Now it seems that the only way I can get it onto the iPhone is to sync it, but I'm getting the warning that if I sync, it will remove all my other apps, which I bought directly from the phone. I don't want to lose all those apps. I tried just sliding the app over. How can I get the app onto my iPhone while leaving the other apps as they are?

    OK, thanks. I really didn't know that. However, I have solved the problem of how to get the app I just purchased onto my iPhone. It turns out that when you go to buy it again, on the iPhone, you get a message saying you have already purchased that item, and asking if you want to download it again. So, I am able to get that app on my iPhone without purchasing it again. Now I will go through the apps I got from my daughter and see if I want them and when I get that figured out, I will sync, which will erase the ones she gave me, and then I'll purchase the ones I really want. Thanks for your help.

  • Why is there a black transparent line going all the way round my screen?

    I don't know what it is and don't know how to get rid of it. PLZ HELP. Much apreciated.

    Hi AaronDuncan,
    Looking into your issue a bit more, I am wondering if you have a Hot Corner set up in Mission Control set to show Desktop. See this article -
    OS X Mavericks: Mission Control preferences
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13925
    If you click on the Hot Corners button, one of the corners may be labeled Desktop. Go back to that corner to revert to the normal display, without the line around it.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • When I connect my iPhone 5, iTunes opens and the sync begins. It goes all the way through the process then stays on "Finishing Sync" and never continues. It doesn't do this with my iPad 2 on the same computer. How can I get the iPhone to finish syncing?

    I am using a Dell XPS 8200 running Windows 7 Professional.

    not sure if this is a permanent fix but, ever since upgrading to itunes 11.3.1, my iphone5 seems to finish syncing on its own, now. didn't seem to be a problem anymore. at least after doing only one sync, since the upgrade.
    (stiil have a blank "purchased" page at itunes store, though).

  • How do I create a glossary in RH9 without typing all the terms & defs?

    I have searched all available doc and this is what I've tried:
    Linking to a Word 2010 doc with just the glossary
    Linking to a Word 2010 doc with glossary appended to existing topic
    (For both of the above, I chose "convert glossary" in settings AND used unique Word paragraph styles not used anywhere else in my project--mapped one to glossary term and one to glossary definition.)
    What I got:
    In both cases, the glossary came through as a topic (or added to the existing topic when appended), but what am I failing to do to get the glossary to be recognized as a glossary?
    P.S. I hand entered one term and it generates just fine. However, in any of the settings locations where there's a choice to "Add to existing glossary" or "Create new," I notice that the "add" feature is grayed out.  Is this a clue...or a random, unrelated issue? 

    In Linking if you want to convert glossary then only option available is to create a new associated glossary for each Linked Word Document. "Add to existing glossary" option is available only for import workflow and not for Linking.
    Since, you have already selected the option "Convert Glossary", you must have given a glossary name say "MyWordGlossary". So, are you sure your glossary items are not coming in this newly created glossary "MyWordGlossary", you can open this glossary from "Project Manager" Pod.
    Also, please note that when a GlossaryTerm style is followed by a GlossaryDefinition style paragraph then only a new Glossary item is created in RoboHelp. So, your glossary term and definition should be in pair in the word document to get converted properly in RoboHelp.
    NOTE: Your Glossary will not get created in (Default) Glossary but in "MyWordGlossary".

  • How do I add insurance to my phone without going into the store?

    A few months ago I took the insurance off of my iPhone to save some money. Now that this isn't an issue anymore I would like to put it back on in my verizon and I can't find a place to do so. Can someone point me in the right direction please?

    I'm sure you have gotten your answer by now, but incase you haven't and for others...
    Unfortunately, to add insurance they only allow you 30 days from purchase of a new phone/account or phone upgrade.  
    Along with the fact that they only will do 2 phone claims in a calendar year and won't allow you to add the service again after the year if over. 
              Personally, I feel it's unfair!  If we pay for TEC (insurance coverage), then we should be allowed to do more phone claims, even if it means we pay monthly for TEC after the initial 2 or be allowed to add the service again after the calendar year with no additional charges.

  • Why is iPhone all of a sudden using insane amounts of data, and how do I make it stop? Verizon useless -- laughing all the way to the bank, no doubt.

    Got replacement iPhone from Asurion (%$&@ing rat b@stards that they are). All of a sudden, phone using 1G of data every other day. Verizon is useless and can't help me figure out WHAT is using this data. Roaming is off. No new apps. What could be causing this?

    What do you find when you check Settings > Cellular to see which apps are using all this data?

  • How do you exit without backing all the way out or using an app killer?

    There is no "X", there is no "exit" under "menu". I have been using Dolphin which has just about everything you need when you click the menu button.

    Like most Android apps (including the built-in Browser, Maps, and GMail apps), Firefox does not have an exit button. Android automatically closes apps in the background when it needs their resources.
    If you do need to quit Firefox manually, try the "Quit Fennec" add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/addon/221517/

  • My white macbook screen only works shortly when booting and when adjusting the brightness (turning it all the way down and up from there) and only stays on for seconds. any idea what to do?

    Hi. I'm having quite an issue here. My macbook screen is only lid when i boot and when i adjust the brightness of the screen (going all the way down and up from there). either way it goes black again after a few seconds. External monitor works though.
    Any ideas on how to solve this?
    Lasse

    I buy the dirty theory as well.  plug and unplug a whole bunch of times - you may be able to dislodge whatever is causing the issue.  Also - make sure the plug is fully seated - (some of the pad jacks are vert tight, and you really have to work them in).  I gather you are out of warrenty?  Blow in the hole.
    last resotr - take a toothpick, dip the end in fingernail polish, get rid of the xs, then very very gently, insert the pick and try to rub the contacts.  very gently as you do not want to bend them.

  • Help! how do I delete contacts that are not on my contact list? when I start a new message you can still get the number when you tap in the name?

    how do I delete contacts? help! contacts are deleted off my
    contacts. but when I go to messages and press in the name the contact
    still appears under other..... can I delete these?

    That is saved in cache memory on the phone and that memory is about 2MB in size and is eventually overwritten with use.  The only sure way to get rid of it is to restore as new and not from a backup and you will lose data.  I suggest you just ignore
