  • How do i delete all my stuff off my old phone after setting up new one

    How do i delete all my stuff off my old iphone4 after setting up my new iphone5 ?

    First, turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete your iCloud account...you want to completely disassociate the phone from your Apple ID. Once done: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings.

  • I have to erase and syne my iPhone 4s will that delete all my contacts?

    So apparently my iPhone syne to another computer. To sync it with the one I use I have to erase and sync. Will that delete all my contacts???

    You might if you select to sync contacts on the Info tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync to an empty contact application on your computer (e.g., Outlook or Windows Contacts).  As a safety precaution download the free app My Contacts Backup.  This will back up your contacts as an attachment to an email which you send to yourself.  If necessary, you can later open this email on your phone and tap the attachment to re-import your contacts to your phone.  After doing this, follow this guide to preserve your other data and settings: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141.  If you aren't syncing your calendar or contacts with your computer, you can skip step 2; just be sure to deselect syncing calendars and contacts on the Info tap of your iTune sync settings prior to syncing.

  • I have an iphone and my daughter has an ipod.  She has all my contacts showing up on her ipod.  I deleted them and now they are gone from both.  is there any way of retreiving this deleted information.

    I have an iphone and my daughter has an ipod.  She has all my contacts showing up on her ipod.  I deleted them and now they are gone from both.  is there any way of retreiving this deleted information.

    When you share an iCloud account, any data you sync with the account is merged, and any actions you take on one device (such as deleteing contacts) is synced to all other devices sharing the account.  To avoid this, each person's device(s) should have a separate iCloud account with a separate ID.  (You can continue to share your iTunes account; it does not need to have the same ID as the one used for iCloud.)
    To create separate icloud accounts, decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account.  On the one that will be changing accounts, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting the other person's contacts from your account, and vice versa).
    As for recovering the deleted contacts, you can try restoring her phone from her most recent backup.  This may recover the contacts, however it often doesn't.  Restoring to an iCloud backup has to be done in the initial setup process.  If she have any data on your phone now that is not in the backup that she wants to save she will need to do that first.  Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  You will then go through the setup screens as you did when the phone was new. When given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup.  Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.

  • My non-so-techno missus has had my old iphone4s, deleted all my contacts, and put hers in, then backed up to iCloud (mine) so now I have her contacts on my 5s......and ideas?

    My non-so-techno missus has my old iPhone 4S, deleted all my contacts and put hers in, then backed up to iCloud (mine) so now I have all her contacts on my 5s.....any ideas?

    iCloud isn't a backup where Contacts etc. are concerned, it's a syncing service. Any changes you make on any device connected to it are transmitted to iCloud and then to other devices. If your son signed into your iCloud account and deleted contacts then that's the same as if you had deleted contacts on your own device. I'm afraid that as far as iCloud is concerned, deleted is deleted. If you don't have an independent backup such as Time Machine, or a backup of your iOS device on iCloud or iTunes, then you can't retrieve your data. If you had made a backup of your iOS device you can restore that - it will restore the entire backup so any changes made subsequent to the backup will be lost.

  • How can I delete all my contacts in Address Book?

    I had syncing issues between my Entourage 2008 contacts, my Address Book contacts, and the PowerMac for Blackberry application. As a reference, I have around 5,000 contacts. I have solved the issue, but there is some collateral damage: read on.
    Address Book duplicated my contacts two or three times, and it also created around 60,000 empty contacts. I have been able to clean the Entourage contacts, which only suffered from duplication but not from new empty entries.
    I tried to delete the Address Book duplicate and empty entries. The easy way out, I thought, was to Select All and delete. It does not work. Given I have ended with around 80,000 contacts, after I Select All, and try to delete, the program hangs, and I have to Force Quit the Address Book application.
    I tried to locate the Address Book file where contacts are stored, but I have not found an obvious name that would point to it, nor have I read anything about such file in the different discussion forums. So no success on this.
    I have even used scripts in the past for deleting duplicates and merging contacts in Entourage, but I have not found one for Address Book that could take care of the massive number of empty entries with "No Name".
    So, is there a way to delete all my contacts in Address Book?

    There are two possibilities you can try:
    1. Delete all your duplicate entries. You can try downloading and running this Applescript Remove Duplicates, which will create a group named Duplicates in Address Book, from which you should be able to delete those entries, by selecting the Group, then in the next column to the Right, select all the entries and choose Delete Cards from the Edit menu.
    2. If that doesn't work, you can do this:
    1. Quit Address Book if it's running.
    2. Go to ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook and delete an of these files/folders you find there:
    • ABPerson.skIndex
    • ABPerson.skIndexInverted
    • Address Book - xxxxx.abbu
    • AddressBook.data
    • AddressBook.data.beforesave
    • AddressBook.data.previous
    • Images
    • LastImport.plist
    3. Restart Address Book and see if the default cards are there (Apple card, and your Me card) and if all seems to be working correctly.

  • I took my daughter's new Iphone 5 to shop and they replaced it with a new one.  Today she logged on to my ICloud account and deleted all my contacts and just kept the ones she wanted.  Can I retrieve my contacts, please help

    My daughter has a new Iphone 5 and we share an ITunes account.  She logged on to my Icloud Account and deleted all my contacts this morning.  Can i restore this as I now only have her friends as my contacts?

    No, data like Email, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes are only synced between devices and not included in icloud backups, so unfortunately you won't be able to restore them. Please see also: iCloud storage and backup overview: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12519/

  • How do I delete all my contacts from my iPod Touch?

    I'm giving my iPod touch to my grandson and want to delete all my contacts from my iPod Touch. These have been synched from Mobile Me (.Mac). I've unchecked the synch contact box in the setting section of iTunes, but the contacts do not get deleted. (Also, I want to be careful not to accidentally delete them from my .Mac contact list in the process.) I successfully removed my music and photos in this manner, but the contacts are not being deleted. Advice would be appreciated.

    Connect the Touch to iTunes and click the Restore button. After the Touch is erased and the OS is re-loaded, you'll have the option to load your last backup or set it up as a new iPod (which is what you want).
    Alternatively, you can simply use the built-in utility. On the Touch go to Settings/Reset/Erase All Content and Settings. That may actually take longer than Restoring though.

  • How do i delete all my contacts in mail address book

    how so i delete all my contacts in mail address book, i have 1,042,000 blank contacts.

    In Lion, the user's LIBRARY folder is hidden. So, it's not visible automatically.
    Open Finder.
    At the menu items at the top of your screen, click on GO (where you see Finder, File, Edit, View, Go, Help)
    Next within the GO options, select the 'Go to Folder' option. You will see a window open to enter text.
    Enter ~/Library and click the GO button.
    Now you'll be in your user LIBRARY where you need to be to get to your address book file previously mentioned.
    You want to open the Application Support folder then from inside there open the AddressBook folder. Then you can follow Barney's instructions.

  • HT5824 How can I delete all my contacts from icloud with a single command?

    I would like to delete all my contacts from iCloud so when I synchronize with my other devices, the one I already have don't be duplicated or deleted

    If you delete all your iCloud contacts, then enable contact syncing with your other devices, the empty iCloud contacts are likely to overwrite the contacts on your other devices and you will lose them.
    Do you have a master list of contacts on one of your devices that you are trying to replace the iCloud contacts with?

  • I have upgraded iphone ios 3.1 to ios 5.1 and have lost all my contacts and can not find them on my pc. Can anyone pleeeeese help me

    I have upgraded iphone ios 3.1 to ios 5.1 and have lost all my contacts and can not find them on my pc. Can anyone pleeeeese help me?

    If you are saying that you both have iCloud accounts and use the same icloud ID, then yes, the contacts will be deleted.  The idea is that all devices using the same icloud ID are kept in sync.  You need to use different IDs.  You can keep the same iTunes ID so you can share the songs and apps.  But use different icloud IDs.

  • 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 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.
