Where did the "plus" button go to add contacts. It disappeared after I updated my phone.

Where did the "plus"button go on my iphone to add contacts? It disappeared after I updated my phone.

The iTunes app cannot disappear ... it may be on a different screen.
Regardless, you can force it to your home screen by doing:
Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout

FaceTime not working on my Macbook Pro. I am able to sign in successfully and add contacts. When I try to call a contact with an iPhone, it says connecting then fails by ending automatically. When someone try to FaceTime me,I accept but it says connecting then fail. I only have a MacBook Pro to FaceTime and not an iPhone. I was informed that I should be able to FaceTime from my laptop via video call without an iPhone.
Please advise.

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
1. The purpose of this test is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The "Guest User" login created by "Find My Mac" is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
2. Connect to a different network, such as a public Wi-Fi hotspot, and try again.

IPhone 4 Contact - No plus sign or edit sign

My iPhone 4 does not have the "plus sign" to add a new contact or "edit sign" to edit current contacts. Can anyone help me?

If you have enabled iCloud, check Settins>iCloud>set Contacts to On.

You have to get them from the file you have into iCloud, google, yahoo, outlook.com, AOL, an Exchange server, or some other service the phone can sync with, or into MS Outlook on your PC. Then you can sync them to the phone.

Reset your phone, hold the home and off button down until the apple symbol comes up. If that doesnt fix it then you need to restore your phone in itunes, Connect to itunes, right click on your phones name to the left, then click restore from backup. That providing you have backed up your phone recently.

How do i add contacts from address book to iPhone using itunes 11.0.2

how do i add contacts from address book to iPhone using itunes 11.0.2

Check the manual http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf, but it is done via the syncing process with iTunes or iCloud.

How to I delete all contact on my iPhone at once. These are contacts ABOVE the contact folder that says From My Mac. I do not want to erase all of the other settings and content from my iPhone -- just the contacts.

How to I delete all contact on my iPhone at once? These are contacts ABOVE the contact folder that says, "From My Mac."
Someone said create a new empty folder on the computer and sync to that -- didn't work .
Another person said, "Reset information in settings to restore to the default." That would erase ALL of the conetent I have on the phone and I do not want to erase all of the other settings and content from my iPhone -- just the contacts.
There has to be a better way than gong through and deleting one-by-one.

Go into Settings...Mail, Calendar and Contacts and siwtch off the Contacts section from the account in question.
The phone should ask you if you want to keep or erase the contacts stored on you phone.
However, if they aren't synched to anything and only exist on your iPhone, you'll have to delete them all one by one

Well, if you go to Phone, you'll see a contacts tab there on the bottom of the screen. It's also possible that it's in a Utilities folder on your home screen.

Can't add contacts to iPhone 3G

Hi. I have an iPhone 3G and have a problem when trying to add a new contact. If I receive a call from a new number and want to create a contact i press the "add to new contact" button and then type in the persons name and save it as normal.
However the new contact does not appear in my contacts list. the only way it can be found is if use the iPhone search facility to look for the contact's name. If I create a new contact from scratch it works it's just the "add to new contact' that doesn't work.
Can anyone help??? Thanks

I have the same problem. 4.5 hours total across two mobile me chat support sessions have not found a solution.
The problem is the iPhone is saving contacts when created outside the Contacts App locally on the phone, and not within the MobileMe group.
I previously had Mobile Me (personal) and Exchange (work) on my phone. New contacts were never saving to either group, but would remain only local on the phone. MobileMe tech support suggested removing the Exchange account on my phone. They said that when creating a new contact the phone didn't know if it should be saved to MobileMe or Exchange, so it always defaulted to the local address book (thus never synced to the cloud). Upon removing my Exchange account, contacts created within the Contacts iPhone app will save to MobileMe and sync perfectly. Unfortunately, when outside the Contacts app (MMS, recent call log, website, email, etc), creating a new contact will still only save locally on the phone. Since MobileMe is the only contact account, the Contacts app will only show contacts within that group (not those that are local on the phone).
MobileMe support had no recommendation on how to fix this except for deleting my MobileMe account on the phone and trying to recreate. The problem seems to be the previous existence of the Exchange account and the iPhone thinking that group still exists somewhere, so by default, new contacts are still being created in the local phone group and not on MobileMe.
I hope someone has some solution to this big problem.

I have an ipad mini. I do not have an iphone or a mac. I want to add my friend's telephone number (she has an iphone) to my contacts so we can use imessage between her iphone and my ipad. How do I do this?

How do I add a friend's phone number for messaging on my ipad? I do not have an iphone.

Hi
To enable imessage on ipad check that imessage is enabled in settings>messages but note that any message that you send from your ipad will be from your email address as you dont have a mobile number linked to imessage.
With everything enabed you should just be able to add contact into your contact list and then message them from there
Hope this helps
