I recently deleted a contact from my phone book and when I send a text the same contact appears.. How do I remove it?

I don't believe there's much you can do about it...have a look at the "More Like This" pane on the right side of this page.
One way though to eliminate the issue (although not a very good way) is to restore the phone as new.

I deleted a contact from my address book but when I go into text message it is still there. How do I fully delete this contact? It is only in my text messages not in my address book.

HT204150 How do I change my default email on the "Me" contact from a Facebook email to my normal email address in the same contact? Or at least change it for the autofill information?

Perfernece for contact to change. Do I just have to dis-associate my contact fromt the facebook account? Is only the autofill changable?

If you allow Facebook to access your contacts and you have the @facebook.com email alias turned on, it will add the @facebook.com email to your contact info, and because it has the fixed label of "email" it overrides every other email address.
They didn't fix this in iOS 8.
There are two ways to remove the @facebook.com email from your contact info:
If you don't need your Facebook friends and their info updating your contacts, go into iOS Settings -> Facebook and turn off access to Contacts.
If you don't use your @facebook.com email address (all it does it forward to the primary email address) you can go into the Facebook app, More -> Settings -> General -> Email -> and uncheck "Use your Facebook email". Removing it from Account Emails does not work, you have to turn it off. Once you do this, go to iOS Settings -> Facebook and turn Contacts off and on again to make it update your info. The @facebook.com address should be removed.

With my iPhone 5, when I delete a contact from my phone book, why can I still see it when I type in a name to select to text message?

If I delete a contact from my phone book, the number is still there when I go to type in a name to send a text message to, and is listed as 'other number'.
Can anyone please tell my why this is and how I can delete a number completely?
Thanks.

Th einformation is stored in cache memory on the phone. The only way to get rid of it is to restore the phone as new and you will lose data and settings. Eventually the cache will be overwritten so just ignore it

There is another setting for "Start Conversation from", that needs to be set to phone number.

PH2668 I have delete some contact that i dont need anymore. but when i send a text they are still there. how do i delete them

I have delete contact out of my phone. but when i send a text they are still there. how do i delete them

I'm a bit confused by your post.
When you delete a contact, I assume it is no longer listed in the Contacts app, right?
When a send a text, what exactly do you mean "they are still there"? Can you then go back into contacts and find the contact listed again?
Are you syncing contacts via icloud to several devices that you own?

I can't email a photo directly from iPhoto. First, I only have two "themes" to choose from instead of 8, and when prompted to fill in the "to" and "from", the "from" box has "MobileMe" already in it, and I can't get rid of or change it. I have OSXLion

I understand, as that was the place I would change it before 8.3 but now that option of Mail Days to Sync is not available? Any idea why that would be?

Recently, when I hook up my iPhone to Sync, it goes thru and when it finishes I get the same message......The iPhone "......" cannot be syned. An unknown error occurred (13019). What am I doing wrong?

I dug a little deeper and found this:
It is the Voice Memos in the Playlist check Box. Uncheck it and re-sync.
It helped this time on my iTouch and my iPhone! At least this time.

I have an iPhone 5s and an iPad 2 both using the same Apple ID how can I FaceTime the iPad from the iPhone?

I have an iPhone 5s and an iPad 2 both using the same Apple ID sometime I'd like to FaceTime the iPad from the iPhone to talk to my wife while at work how can I get it to do this it always says unavailable.

Naw I figure it out without all that had to go into the FaceTime settings and only use the phone number on the iphone and only use the Apple ID on the iPad works great now no need for two Apple ID or any signing in and out.
Thanks for your help though

I am trying to print labels from my address book, and when I change it to have the first names first, only some names work. Does anyone know what the problem is or how to fix it?

I want to print labels from my address book, but when I try to put first names first, only some will work. Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it?

Hi MollyPhloot07,
I'm glad you found the coupons.com app and you might also want to take a look at the GroceryIQ app from the same company. Please note that at this time, printing is only support from iPad to HP wireless inkjet printer. That's most likely the reason why your Canon isn't displaying when attempting to print. The other way to go might be emailing the coupons you want to your email address, then open that email and print from a conventional desktop or laptop computer.
Hope this helps!

HT4994 i have lost some of my contacts from my phone book

I have lost some of my contacts

Maybe you stored them on the e-mail account, check changing the filter of the contacts on the phone and checking where are they saving
Go to Contacts and then groups, to see where are they located

I hve unlocked iphone and got walmart family mobile. I was issued a phone number initially with phone and then I had them change it. Now when I send texts caller id people see is the original phone number, and when I call it is the new number.

I have unlocked iphone and got walmart family mobile. I was issued a phone number initially then asked for a different one. Now when I send text messages, they show up the original number, but when I make phone calls, the id shows up the new number, I can recieve text messages to both numbers. If you try to call the first number it says it is not a working number. On my phone, if I go under "about" it says "my phone number" and it says the second number, under settings, and messaging, it says that I send and recieve messages from the original one. T-mobile, has no idea why this is happening and has tried everything to fix it

This is for iMessages only, not for text messages as in SMS/MMS.
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID.
Select your Apple ID and at the menu window that appears, select Sign Out.
Turn iMessage off at Settings > Messages > iMessage.
Then follow these instructions.
You can remove an iPhone from your support profile by following these steps.
Step 1: Click on this link to open the login window of your support profile.
Step 2: Log into the website using your Apple ID – same as your iTunes login.
Step 3: Click on the button ‘Edit products’ and select the iPhone that you want to remove from the list.
Step 4: Click on the arrow behind the product, and then click on the button ‘Unregister’ to delete the iPhone from your support profile.
After you unregister your iPhone, on your iPhone go to Settings > Messages > iMessage and turn iMessage on.
Go to Settings < Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID. Sign back in with your Apple ID.
This should re-register your iPhone with your Apple ID with iMessage with the new phone number only.

HT201401 My new Iphone 4 camera is not functioning. When I click the phone icon. The photo shutter appears, but nothing else happens. I've shut the phone off and turned on serveral times. The same thing occures.,

My new iphone 4S camera is not functioning. When I click the phone icon, the shutter appears. Then the screen only shows the shutter. When I go back to the home screen and click the phone icon again. The photo screen only shows a black screen. The button to take photos is locked the entire time. I've turned the phone on and off several times.

Basic troubleshooting steps outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. Have these ALL been tried?

TS2972 I would like to share my iTunes libraries with my Apple TV from both my iMac and Macbook Pro, but I use the same iTunes account on both devices. Is it possible to link my Apple TV to both devices at the same time?

I recently purchased an Apple TV, and I currently have it linked to my iMac with my iTunes account. I also have a newer MacBook Pro that has some different iTunes media on it than my iMac does, but they share iTunes accounts. Is it possible to link both devices at the same time, have access to media on both computers, and use the same iTunes account on both computers?? It seems Apple TV will only link to one iTunes account per computer, but can access multiple computers if different iTunes accounts are activated on those computers.

You can share multiple libraries with the Apple TV, they don't even need to use the same iTunes account. Just make sure that you use the same ID for homesharing on all devices.
