I want to delete ALL of the Contacts, and start fresh.

I want to delete ALL of the Contacts transfered from my iMac shortly after setting up my new iPad 4th Gen, so I can start a new Contact list that is better scaled down for my Face Time and eMail usage (without the other 900 business contacts). I cannot find a way to highlight the entire list and then do a single Delete. SInce I don't have Lion or higher on my iMac, I cannot do an iCloud sync to do the job. Any suggestions?

Yes there is. Those songs are not actually on your iPad. They are in iCloud ready for download if you choose to do so. If you want to remove them go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Show All>Music>Off. You can also do this in Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off.

    Add the account back to your phone and enable contacts syncing with the account and the contacts will reappear on your phone.  If you want them in iCloud, you'll have to copy them to your iCloud account.  If you need assistance doing this, reply back and I'll help you.

    Oh, and I can't hook up my iPhone to iTunes because it's locked with a passcode.  I can't begin to type the passcode because of this stupid "Restore Needed - can't send or receive calls" thing.  This is beyond silly.

  • Every time one of my email addresses doesn't work on my mail app, due to wrong password or whatever, it deletes all of the contacts form my phone.  What can I do to stop this from happening?

    I have tried deleting the account and it deletes all my contacts.  I have verizon and even using back up assistant, it says the contacts are there but they aren't.  The only way i can find a contact is if I start to type a name in and new text but once i sent the new text, the name disappears and it just shows the number.  Siri nor the address book don't recognize any contacts at all.

    I cant find any reciept in my email or in my husbands email.  I am going to attempt to call and speak to someone who can help me because this was not my fault except trying to be normal and update my phone!

  • HT1535 I want to delete all of the music on my iPhone and reload from a new iTunes library on a new computer

    I acquired a new PC .  I had my iPone synched to the iTunes library on the old PC.  I now want to delete all of the music off of my iPhone and reload it with the new iTunes library that I am creating on the new PC.
    I tried seveal times using different synch options ...  all unsuccessful. 

    Hey finterra,
    Thanks for the question. With iOS 7 you can now delete your entire music library from your device. Simply navigate to Settings > General > Usage > Music then tap Edit, tap the minus symbol, then tap Delete.

  • I downloaded 6 software to my phone and is fine, when I did my wifes it deleted all of her contacts and she isnt backed up to outlook,  Please Help

    I downloaded 6 software to my phone and is fine, when I did my wifes it deleted all of her contacts and she isnt backed up to outlook,  Please Help.  I used the same account login/password for the icloud part....

    Why would you use the same iCloud login?  Do you and your wife share that account for syncing contacts?
    Was she actually syncing contacts to any supported app on the computer or a cloud service prior to the update as the iPhone is designed to be used?
    Did you not backup the iPhone prior to the update?  If this had been done, it should be a simple matter or restoring from that backup to put everything back.

  • I have just bought a new mac book, and I want to start from scratch by syncing the content of my iPhone, but each time I try it wants to delete everything on the iPhone and replace by what on the new iTunes library, i.e. nothing! can I do the reverse?

    I have just bought a new mac book, and I want to start from scratch by syncing the content of my iPhone, but each time I try it wants to delete everything on the iPhone and replace by what's on the new iTunes library, i.e. nothing! can I do the reverse, i.e. importing all my iphone's stuff on the new computer?

    You need to copy some files and your iTunes folder to the new computer. Do you have a backup of your old computer (or still have the old computer?) Was the old computer a Mac or PC?

  • I'm too old to learn iCal.  How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad??  Thanks

    I'm too old to learn iCal.  How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad?? 
    Also, once I figure out how to replace iCal with Outlook/Mac on iTunes, how do I synch the phone and pad so that the information on those devices over-writes onto Outlook as a backup, rather than having a blank Calendar on Outlook wipe out all of the information on the phone and pad???
    Thanks

    If you haven't tried already, plug your devices into iTunes, and on each device next to the "Summary" tab at the top is another tab called "Info." Click that and scroll down to Contacts, Calendars, etc. There should be a pull down bar under each category for "Sync contacts from..." and you should be able to select from that pull down list Outlook.  Hit Apply at the bottom and see if that does it.

  • HT1386 "Updating to iOS 6.1.5 will delete all of the apps and media..."  Why?

    My daughter has a 4th gen ipod touch, still on iOS 4.3.5. It wasn't updated for such a long time because I had a space shortage on the computer on which it was always updated.  I've recently increased the size of C: so now I could proceed to back up all the kids' ipods and bring them up to the latest OS.
    I backed it up and Synced onto the computer that it has always been backed up to. When I try to update it, it gives me this warning:
    "Updating to iOS 6.1.5 will delete all of the apps and media, including iTunes Store purcahses. on your iPod touch.  To preserve your content. apply this update on the computer where you sync apps. music. videos. and photos."
    This *really is* the computer on which all the backups and syncs had been done, but I think that I may have corrupted the apple files when I copied the image of the old C: drive onto the new hard disk.
    The other two kids' ipod touches updated without any problems.  This third one, however has the warning above.
    How do I fix this problem?
    By the way: Quad core PC with 4GB of RAM, 64-bit Windows 7, and iTunes 11.1.4.62.
    Thanks.

    Do the followings to not lose anything. When you restore from backup as the article says, the iPod will also be updated

    Nope.
    Did you fail to import them before restoring from backup?  If so, then they are gone.
    You should import all photos taken with the iphone to your comuter regularly as you would with any digital camera, most especially before any update or restore.

  • Hello, I just want to formate the computer and start fresh??

    Hello, I just want to formate the computer and start fresh??

    NavarroSergio,
    since you have a Late 2011 model, you can use OS X Internet Recovery to start fresh.
    First, you’ll need to completely erase your internal disk. Boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the Mac OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk (typically the first item in the list). On the right-hand side, click on the Erase tab. In the Format dropdown menu, select “Mac OS Extended (Journaled)”; in the Name textbox, enter a name for the reformatted volume (“Macintosh HD” is typical). Press the Erase… button, and erase your disk. When the erasure is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Shutdown from the Apple menu.
    The next time that you start up, OS X Internet Recovery will download your MacBook Pro’s original version of OS X (either 10.7.2 or 10.7.3) from Apple’s servers, and then install it. When it finishes, you’ll again see the welcome video just like when you first got it. Fill in your relevant information as you did the first time, and when you log in for the first time, run Software Update to get back to 10.7.5.

  • I want to delete all of my contacts/addresses in Mail

    How can I delete all of my mail addresses? I have thousands and many duplicates I want to start fresh.

    I would like to delete all of my contacts on my iMac desktop and bring in all of my contacts from my work PC which I now have on my iPhone.
    When I go to my addresses it will not allow me to delete any or all. Am I trying to do it from the wrong screen? I can't find "Look for Duplicates" and where is 'Card Menu'.
    Removing duplicates from my imac and icloud would be a distant second choice to removing them all and importing the ones on my iPhone.

  • How do I delete all data on sync and start over?

    When I get my bookmarks the way I want them on my computer and delete the ones I do not want it gets messed up. I have 4 computers on my account and every time I sync it brings up old book marks. I have deleted all book marks from my computer and set up a new sync account then deleted all book marks on my other computers. Then I set up the new sync account on all the computers and still brings up Book marks. There should not be any book marks because I deleted all book marks from all computers before I set up the new account. I have done this 2 times and it they come back. How can I clear all my accounts and start over???????????

    To delete all of the data associated with your Firefox sync account:
    # Go to [https://accounts.firefox.com/settings Firefox Accounts]
    # Login using the information associated with your sync account
    # Delete your account
    # Signup for a new sync account using the [https://accounts.firefox.com/settings Firefox Accounts] website or directly from Firefox
    '''Warning:''' This cannot be undone and will result in the loss of your sync data
