  • After downloading iOS 5 I can't add or edit my contacts list.

    After downloading iOS 5 I can't add or edit my contacts list. How do I get this functionality back?

    Just do the following this seemed to work for me.
    1. Settings
    2. Select icloud
    3. Turn contacts on
    4. Come out of that and check for the add sign at the top right-hand corner of your contacs window
    5. Go back into Settings, Icloud and switch it back off and select keep contacts
    6. Voila your edit button should have stayed in the contact window

  • After I edited my contact list on my iphone I set up the icloud account.  Now all of my old contacts have been added to the edited ones.  If I delete the icould will I lose all of my contacts or just the ones brought in by icloud?

    You cannot delete an Apple ID, you can just stop using it. If your photos are still on your phone now, then I suggest you do back them up. Transfer them from the phone into your iPhoto Library. iCloud only backs up your Camera Roll automatically. But the Camera Roll only contains new photos that were taken but not yet transferred using iTunes.

  • I just purchased an iPhone 5 and my phone has many duplicate contacts on it.  I want to edit my contact list that's saved on the cloud and then replace the contacts on my phone with the edited list.  I have spent hours but no success yet.

    Okay
    So when you edit in iCloud you are not seeing an update on your iphone?.  I just did a test in iCloud.com and it changed my iPhone contact list in less than 1 second.  So iCloud is functioning fine.
    If you delete all the contacts on your iPhone and if you are properly synced they will all be wiped out on iCloud.....ugh!  So let's not do that...
    Your plan should be to make all the changes in iCloud and have them flow down to your iPhone.  That sounds what you are trying to do anyway.
    So. if you delete a contact in iCloud or edit a contact in iCloud then you are not seeing the changes on your iPhone?
    If so then they are not properly synced..... but I wonder how you have any contacts in iCloud.
    Let me know if you are seeing any changes, if mot then we can review the syncing set-up.
    Cheers

  • I can't edit my contacts on my iPhone 4, after upgrading to iOS 5

    After updating my iPhone 4 to the iOS 5.1.1, I can't edit my contacts or add any new contacts. Can anybody help me with this? Thank you.

    Try this:
    Settings>iCloud>Contacts>On...see if you can edit now...if so, you can go back into Settings & turn this off, if you like.

  • HT2486 can I have two contact lists on one mac book pro?  I need one to sync with my iphone, one to sync with my husband's iphone.

    can I have two contact lists on one mac book pro?  I need one to sync with my iphone, one to sync with my husband's iphone.

    I agree with Chris CA that this is the way I would *expect* iTunes to behave.
    When I look at iTunes from my account (my music is in ~/Music/iTunes/ and not available to my spouse's account), I can see in my music library all my rips and my purchases, just as I would expect. I can use Store>View My Account (<myAppleID>) and all is as expected. Home sharing is NOT on.
    Doing the same from the other account is not much different, actually. Nothing in the library yet, of course. Store>View My Account (<herAppleID>) also works. I CAN authorize my computer to play her music. I CAN view her iTunes purchases. When I attempt to download the purchases to HER library, though, I get the following dialog box:
    Now I interpret this to mean that this computer (mine) will not download from a different AppleID (also mine) for 90 days. Is that [interpretation] correct?

  • How can I move my contact list to new ID account and question about updating iOS

    How can I move my contact list to new ID account?
    And should I update my iOS system ?

    Hello Godde
    Lets start with checking out the articles below for setting up Family Sharing and more information about Apple ID’s. I will say that you will not be able to transfer any purchases to a different Apple ID, but you can rename the Apple ID. If you want to use Family Sharing, then you will need to just create a new iCloud account and then follow the steps in the second article to start sharing content between you to.

  • Can I share my contacts list with family members?

    can I share my contacts list with family members in the same way as sharing tunes and photos? If so how do I go about setting this up?

    Perhaps you should read these Apple documents about what is stored by iCloud.  The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview:
    Your iCloud account includes 5 GB of free storage for iCloud Mail, Documents in the Cloud, and your iOS device backups. Your purchased music, apps, books, and TV shows, as well as your photo stream, don’t count against the 5 GB of free storage ........
    Here’s what iCloud backs up:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and booksPurchased music isn’t backed up in all countries. Purchased movies and TV shows are backed up only in the U.S. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore. Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. A movie’s product details page in the iTunes Store shows if the movie is unavailable.
    Photos and videos in your Camera Roll

  • I'm new to ipod touch, 4g and my question is how can i download a contact list other than through facebook etc.

    I'm new to ipod touch, 4g. My questions is how can I download a contact list other than through facebook or yahoo or gmail?

    You can sync the iPod's Contacts app with some other contact programs/mail accounts.
    Just where do you want to get/sync the contacts?

  • HT204053 How can I get the contacts list on my iPhone to appear in my iPad Air

    How can I get the contact list on my iPhone to appear in my iPad Air?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Please try the following…
    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

  • How can i import my contact list from the Nokia Suite to my I phone?

    how can i import my contact list from the Nokia Suite to my I phone?

    Oscar, keep in mind that my suggestion could not be the best one.
    I have a copy of Nokia suite on my Windows XP partition on my Mac, just to test it.
    The second icon on the upper row explains as a syncronisation with Outlook.
    Try to do it and later you should use the iClod manager from Apple and Sync Outlook to ìiClod and to any iPhone iPod and so on.
