HT2486 how to delet contacts from address book

Hi All,
Does anyone know how to delete contacts from address book, other than your IPhone deletion? I cannot delete them from the computer. Also, I noticed after syncing, not all my contacts are on my phone. Any advise or help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Is your Address Book "locked"? Are you logged in as the Admin user?

    Yes if you have been backing up using Time Machine it should be pretty simple. If you haven't been backing up then they're gone.

  • HT4489 how to import contacts from address book on mac?

    I'm a new user and was wondering if there was a way to import/transfer/copy my contact details from Address Book to ICloud?

    Open Address Book on your Mac, select the All Contacts group (if you have multiple groups), click on a single contact, press Command-A to select All Contacts, go to File>Export>Export vCard and save this file on your desktop.  Then import the file you just saved to your contacts on icloud.com as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfba7399f.

  • How do I delete contacts from address book in Snow Leopard OSX 10.6

    I thought I had deleted some contacts from my Address Book but when I then typed in a similar name, all the old addresses came up as options. Can anyone help on this please?   I feel stupid having to ask something that is so simple.  Many thanks.

    I think I may have found my own solution thank you.    I deleted a contact in the Address Book by using Edit and deleting all the contents from the card.
    I also went to the WINDOW MENU and found 'Previous Recipients".   This brought up a whole list of people who had received or sent emails and I deleted the ones I didn't need and now when I start to type in an address in my email I only get the relevant options - not ones from way back.
    This might just help somebody else.

  • Desktop Manager wants to delete contacts from Address Book

    I have been using Desktop Manager for Mac's since it became available. When I go to sync my Storm it adds the contacts to my address book that are new to the phone, but it wants to delete 129 Contacts from my address book. For the life of my I can't seem to figure out why or how to agree to add the new contacts, but NOT delete any from my address book.
    Any suggestions?
    Yes, I have done the wipe, the backing up, the ticking of delete all info from device, but having to go through all of these things EVERY time I go to sync defeats the purpose.

    @STATMAN
    I followed all of the steps. Searched my hard drive for anything related to Missing Sync and DM. I deleted all files. Trashed, emptied trash, reset sync services, repaired permissions. Restarted, re-downloaded, installed and still the same thing. It doesn't allow me to sync while "replace all contacts on device" is ticked. Desktop Manager will not allow me to"clear data" from the phone.
    After my last sync... I have  322 entries of the same contact on my phone. Looks like I have to do yet another wipe.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • How to add contacts from address book

    I updated my GS last night from 3.2.1 to the new 5.  I did not realize that it would delete my contact list!!!  All of my contacts are still in my address book on my computer.  Is there a way to transfer them to my phone?
    Also, I tried to restore from backup, but the back up was from so recent, meaning there would be no contacts.

    Connect to computer. Open iTunes and check the box that says sync contacts with address book

  • Deleting Contact in Address Book

    To two Questions:
    1. Deleteing Contact in Address Book
    I have created a new contact in Address Book (Lion) and can't delete it.
    The user is connected to Lion Server to a HomePoint

    Anyone have any Ideas

    What Do you do

    IF YOU CAN BACK UP YOUR ADDRESS BOOK FIRST
    IF YOU CAN BACK UP YOUR ADDRESS BOOK FIRST
    I have figured out the answer to nos 1
    You need to delete Address Book from user/library/applicationsupport.
    (All Contacts will go)
    (In Lion to access this as is maybe hidden
    hold the option key down on the Go menu (you will see Library)
    Drag it to the slide bar then you know where it is)
    Delete the file in Address Book/Application Support
    restart Address Book and it works better
    Still need help with Question 2

  • Sync between MacBookPro and iPhone 3G does not sync properly.  Calendars duplicate events but worse is that only contacts from Address book from letter T onwards sync.  Any contacts on iPhone which are not on Mac are lost during sync.

    Solutions?

    No, I never really found an easy solution.  I believe it is an issue with some corruption in the iTunes database on the specific device.  In my case, both my iPad and iPhone now show duplicate stream songs if viewed through iTunes on my Mac, but they show different songs.  A couple years ago I had a similar issue on my iPhone, and Apple support suggested I back up the phone, completely reset it, and then restore it from the backup.  It did work, so I imagine it would probably work for my current issues with the iPhone and iPad.  But resetting and restoring an iPad or iPhone always makes me a little nervous that something will get lost.  When I did reset/restore the iPhone, I do have to say, the restore process was 100% perfect and I did not lose any data at all even though Apple support said I might.  If you try to go that route, I would suggest backing the device up both to a computer through iTunes, and to the iCloud so that you have a double backup.
    None of this really resolves the issue with how the iTunes databases are becoming corrupted on the apple devices though, so it is very likely to happen again until they fix it.  I have been unable to determine if there were any specific actions or conditions which caused the corruption to happen in the first place.
    Might be worth another call to Apple support, or dropping in the local Apple store if you have one near by.
