Iphone 5 Can I save my contacts in a readable form or print them out from my phone
My iphone 5 is working great but I have been inconvenienced in the past because I couuld not access my contacts. I dropped my phone in a glass of koolade 45 days before the new iphone was released. I had to wait 2 months to actually reveive my new iphone. All this time my contacts were sitting there in my PC with no way to view them. Be fore another emergency strikes I would life to save or print my contacts list in a viewable form. Is this posible? With all the brains it took to create this phone it seems to me to be a no brainer that we might need to access vital information like this. Can anyone point me to a solution?
Thank you
Thank you very much. I had no idea that I could take screen shots. I have 128 contacts in my phone and this is going to be time consuming. I tested your method by taking screen shots of my listing of contacts names. I am now going to take screen shots of the individual contact information. Although it will be time consuming it is the emailing of 128 pictures that gives me pause. Do you happen to have a way to batch email pictures?
I have decided to run these through an OCR program so i can build an editable database in my computer.
Thank you again for your answer. Its very important that we have people like you who help bridge these gaps so many of us finmd ourselves lost in. My hat is off to you

Can I save my contacts to my sim card

No, the iPhone does not save anything to the SIM cards.
SIM cards have a very limited capacity anyway, and can't store the wealth of contact information an iPhone can. -

Kittie,
I use this workflow and it works really well for me; it's really strange that it
i did
work for you and now it doesn't.
I had a quick dabble and
i may
have an explanation. If I read your error message it looks like "New Folder" is trying to create a folder ~kittie/Desktop/3 Working/Contact Pages. However, the automator "create folder" won't create folders recursively like that - it will only work if "3 Working" already exists. Certainly I was able to reproduce the 'quick flash error message and bomb out with no results' effect by asking it to produce a directory from one that didn't already exist. When I added two Finder actions it didn't work as I expected - producing 74 files in subdirectories that just looped round and round when I expected one file and one directory.
I added a shell script that renames the files too and it all works just dandy for me. If you let me know your e-mail I'll post the automator "app" file and shell script I use. It gives you sensibly named files instead of the sdkjfdfadkljfb.jpeg thing that comes out of automator.

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

How can I save to the same map every time when printing pdfs?
How can I save to the same map every time when printing pdfs?
Finder points to the document map even when I chose a different map recently.
I often print series of pdfs from the print dialog box, I'd like to choose the map to save to and then have all subsequent pdf prints automatically directed to the same map until I decide otherwise.that link seems to be broken right now:

Just updated my iphone. Now I can se I have two! iCloud accounts? One of them appears on my phone, and I have forgotten the password. When I try to add the other account, I get the message that this account is already added, but with the name of the first account where there is no available password. I have tried several times to reset the password, bun I don't get the information I need - I have no access to email. What can I do?
Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I have tried as you suggested, and when opening the "purchased" apps some have the icloud logo next to them, but I only have "OPEN" against "Find My iPhone". When opening it up, it goes through the same routine; needs to be updated before proceeding, and wouldn't update because I don't have IOS8.
Anything else I could try, or am I doomed!
All of your help is much appreciated, thanks -
my iPhone was stolen last night and I'm trying to recover all my photos from that phone and get them on my mac laptop. The iCloud photo stream only imported 1,000 photos from my stolen phone. How can I retrieve all of my other photos?
You have to reset the device to Factory Settings in order to restore it from an iCloud backup. You probably want to back it up as is before you do this.
To do the reset after you have backed up the current device, go to Settings>Reset>Reset all Content & Settings. This will erase the device. If you are signed onto iCloud with Find My iPhone turned on, go to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom to sign out of iCloud before you do the reset.
Once you have reset your device, you will set it up like a new phone. When it asks if you want to restore it from an iCloud backup, select the backup you want to restore it from.
Cheers,

Can i combine my husbands contacts and mine if we have two different itune accounts and emails and passwords? Can both sets of contacts live on the cloud and be donwloaded to both our phones?
Hey NON-TECHNO-WIZARD
You can do one of two things. The first is to just export out the contacts and import them into each other’s account. If something is updated the other person will not be updated with the information. Now another options is using one Apple ID for iCloud Syncing and then you can still use individual Apple ID’s for store purchases. The article below will shed some light on how you can use the Apple ID.

Just activated iphone 4S and can't get new voicemail greeting to override the old greeting. Greeting from previous phone still plays even though a new greeting has been saved to the iphone. Also, the previous phone still receives voicemail nofications even though it is no longer active. What is going on?
We want to make sure that voicemail transition is super smooth SonyBony! Please be aware you must power off the previous device in order for the complete switchover to take place. We recommend leaving the previous device off now that you have activated your new device. Here is a link for additional assistance with voicemail on the iPhone 4s. http://vz.to/1kcyBlo
