HT3529 how do i delete threads to contacts?

I have a friend who switched from an iPhone to a non iphone and I can't change her number in my phone contacts to an sms user number ..I can receive her messages but she don't receive mine ..a lil bit ago we figured out that I can change it in messaging by holding the message bubble but instead of doing that all the time lol how do I get it to stay in non iphone message so I don't have to always do this .thanks!!

Hello  janeenfoam
You do not need to do anything, but your friend does. She would need to unlink her phone number from iMessage. In order to do that, she would need to either have access to her previous iPhone and sign out of iMessages, or reset her password to her Apple ID. Check out the article below to forward to you friend to resolve the issue.
iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage

    How do I delete all the contacts from my old iPhone 3 without having to do each one individually?

    If you've already deleted "everything else"...then plug your phone into a power source and: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings.
    Make sure you plug into a power source first...not your computer...as on an iPhone 3G, this can take some time. When finished, all data will be gone.

  • How do i delete all my contacts in facetime?

    hi i would like to know how do i delete all my contacts in facetime or contacts? do i have to do it 1 by 1 or there is a button to delete all contacts?

    Facetime uses the contacts in the from the Contacts app. Delete all your contacts there and they won't show up in Factime/Phone/Mail. If you want to delete Contacts en-masse, it's probably easier to revert to sync with an empty Contact list / AddressBook from your computer.

    how do i delete all my contacts on icloud

    Go to icloud.com on your computer, sign into your iCloud account, open your contacts, click on a single contact, press control-A to select all contacts, press the Delete key on your keyboard.  Do this for all groups to be sure you get them all.  Note: if any of your devices are signed into this account with contact syncing set to on, this will also delete the contacts from your devices.

  • How can I delete all my contact card "custom images"?

    Hi,
    My contact images have been (mysteriously) randomly mixed... I just can't delete them one by one because there are hundreds and hundreds of them.
    How can I delete them all?
    This situation is also verified in my iCloud contacts, which is obvious since my computer, iPhone, iPad and iCloud are all synced together.
    Thanks in advance!

    Go to SETTINGS, then ACCOUNTS AND SYNC select facebook and uncheck sync contacts and then do the same for yahoo.
    back up contacts w/ backup assistant that is under accounts and sync.
    then go back to SETTINGS then APPLICATIONS then MANAGER APPLICATIONS then ALL select PEOPLE then clear data. this will erase your contacts so make sure you have it backed up.
    then go to SETTINGS then ACCOUNTS and SYNC then backup assistant and sync now and this should put all your contacts back on your phone without being relinked to facebook or yahoo at least i remember it being something like this when i was trying to get rid of facebook being linked to my contacts on my Tbolt.

  • I have plenty of duplicated contacts in I cloud. How can I delete all the contacts in the cloud and resynchronize

    I synchronized my contacts from my PC to I cloud. Unfortunately the contacts from I pad and I phone were also synchronized which gives me plenty of duplicates. How do I delete all of my contacts in I cloud to resynchronze and have the contacts only once in the I cloud.
    Thank you for your valuable information. I am sure I am not the only one.

    I have two groups on the iphone that were automatically generated: icloud and "on my mac".
    when I erased all contacts on the computer and synchronized it with the phone, it only synchronized the icloud contacts but no the ones on my phone under "on my mac". so how can I get them into the icloud group....
    thx

  • How do I delete all my contacts at the same time?

    I want to delete all my contacts from my iphone 4s. I know how to delete them one at a time, but I want to know if there is a quicker way?

    On the iPhone I'm afraid you are not able. I would suggest you go to the address book you are syncing to on your computer and delete them there, then re-sync. It should delete them from your iPhone.

  • How do I delete all my contact groups? Please help me!

    I have deleted all my contacts so I can start fresh- there were so many mistakes. How do I delete the contact groups on my IPhone and the "selected groups" in ITunes under sync contacts with Outlook.

    I take it you want to delete the itunes list and not from your hard drive.
    Select one song in the list, hold down the ctrl + A to select them all (or you can go to viwe on the menu and selcet all. Press the delete key. It might ask you if you want to keep the actual files or send them to the recycle bin. This is your choice, be careful though.
    If your recycle bin is set to only hold a certain amount of data and your mucic exceeds this amount you may not be able to recover it all if you make a mistake.

  • How can I delete an imessage contact?

    Hi. I have an iphone 4s. I have deleted a specific contact, and he is no longer in my contacts. Yet, when I try to write a new text message, if I hit the add button to search my contacts, his name and number still come up with the blue imessage icon. Can anyone tell me how to delete this info from my phone?
    Thanks!

    I believe (and this is just my opinion) this information is in some type of message history just like email addresses were held in a history file and couldn't be deleted except with a restore as a new device. If someone knows something else, I'll be happy to listen to them too. I really don't think you can get rid of it without a restore.
