APPLE says:If the previous owner is not present
Make sure the device is powered on and connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network. Then contact the previous owner and ask them to follow these steps:
Sign in to their iCloud account at www.icloud.com/find.
Select the device from their Find My iPhone device list by clicking All Devices at the top of the screen.
Erase the device by clicking the Erase button. This will erase all content and settings from the device. When prompted, do not enter a phone number or message. Click Next until the device is erased.
When the erase is complete, click "Remove from Account" to remove the device from the account.
After the device has been erased and removed from the account, you can proceed with the device setup process.
i forgot to erase the phone.i just removed it without erasing.

Are you sharing the iCloud account with someone else?

My iPhone contact list was appropriated and spam emails were sent to them all. How do I stop this from happening again?

It was not, the more likely issue is that someone got access to your email contact list.
Change your passwords for all your email accounts.

My Iphone contact list was used to send Spam

My yahoo e-mail was recently used to send Spam to everyone in my Iphone conact list that has an e-mail address associated with it. I do not use my yahoo account on a PC just on my Iphone. My phone contact list is not synced to a PC and I don't send emails from my personal email to co-workers and they recieved the Spam from my Yahoo account. Has the Iphone finally been hacked? How can I prevent it.I will change my Passwords but how did it send from my Iphone contact list. The e-mail that was sent is not in my sent or deleted folder. was sent on Friday at 11:15 at night while I was asleep and phone was charging.

It was your Yahoo email account that was hacked, which is why the spam was sent from your account, or more lilely spoofed to appear to be from your account (actually sent from the spammer's email). This is common with Yahoo email which has been easily hacked. If you ever sent any emails to the people who received the spam, their email address's are easily found by the hackers.
As far as your Contact list on your iPhone, the only way it can be hacked into is if the phone was ever jailbroken. OTOH, if you sync your contacts with social media like Fakebook and Twits, your contacts are long in the wild.

Sounds like you activated one of the features of accessibility. Go to Settings, General, Accessibility, turn off Invert colors. Also check under Triple click to see if that is what is selected and you can turn that off as well.

Transfering exchange contacts to my iphone contact list?

I have an exchange account I need to delete off my phone, but I want to save some of the contacts to my iphone contact list before I delete the exchange account, is this possible? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

The ideal method would be to export them as VCF files using a computer.
If you only have access to the Server on your iPhone, you can individually open each one and Share it to yourself by text or email.

The easiest way that I have found is to open Outlook, go back to Itunes & select your phone.
Choose the 'Info' tab at the top of the screen & tick the box marked 'Sync contacts with' & choose Outlook from the drop down box.

How to move iPhone contact list with custom ringtones to OS X server Contacts?

I have recently setup a new Mac Pro, Mid 2012, running Mavericks OS X Server. I was previously syncing through iTunes on Snow Leopard, 10.6...
Due to the changes in Mavericks WRT iTunes address book syncing, I want to setup Contacts in Server, as I do not want to use iCloud. I tried using the Address Book sync on my MacBook Pro, but that doesn't appear to save any custom ringtone data. I setup Contacts in Server & I moved the current address book to Mavericks, but dragging the contacts into the Server list in Contacts generates warnings, "Some contacts could not be copied to the server" and then sometimes starts duplicating the groups and contacts. The system log has some errors that seem related (system & user munged):

So the question is:
How to does one move or import iPhone contact list with custom ringtones to OS X server Contacts? ... and will Contacts save/preserve the ringtone settings?
Thanks

lsof is the standard tool for listing open files, although I'm not quite sure it'll do what you want.
It will list every open file used by every process on the machine, including many you don't expect. I don't know how it will present files opened by network users - whether they'll appear as owned by the file sharing process or not at all. Definitely one to try.

How do I combine my iphone contact list with my laptop pc contact list? And how does it handle duplicates with different information?

How do I combine my iphone contact list with my laptop pc contact list? And how does it handle duplicates that have different information?
How do I merge my iphone calendar appointments/alerts with my laptop pc calendar appointments/alerts? And how does it handle duplicates?
I do not need anything to change on my email that is working fine on both.

gspielman,
Help has arrived to assist you with getting those contacts on both your devices. The Verizon cloud service is definitely a great tool to use and you can also use Apple iCloud as well. When you sign into the Verizon cloud on your iPad does it give an option or message to restore?

How do I transfer my iphone contact list to my car's bluetooth?

How do I transfer my iphone contact list to my '08 Lexus sc 430 bluetooth please?

The car has requested the list...but how do I tell the phone to transfer it?

Help. My iPhone contact list is a mess.

I use the iPhone's "mail" App to connect to my Outlook, Yahoo mail, Gmail and also sync with my MacBook. Now the address books from all 4 sources are on my iPhone and they are all separate entries. I kind of expected the iPhone "Contacts" would have merged those entries during the import process or at least prompt me to merge them. No, it just silently created a mess for me.
I have heard about some 3rd party apps that will merge contact list entries. I have also heard that some apps are secretly stealing user info without telling their users. So I am shy away from downloading apps to perform tasks that Apple should have done.
Can someone tell me a way to clean up the mess by using Apple's tools alone?
Perhaps I can sync all the entries into my MacBook's Address Book first and do the clean up on the MacBook.
Then from one consolidated source, I can update my Outlook, Yahoo Mail, Gmail and iPhone afterwards.
But does Address Book support a merge function?
Please give me step by step instructions if you know how to do these. (both merging and they redistributing the list)
Thanks.

Yikes! Let's work on getting you down to one copy of each contact, nanalovespopa. How do you back up your contacts? Do you use Backup Assistant Plus, Blackberry Link, an alternate method, or a combination of a few?

Can my iPhone contact list be sent to my macbook pro?

After my most recent update to my Macbook Pro either I inadvertently deleted or it simply got wiped, but my Contacts disappeared. I tried reverting to an older version but I simply cannot locate it.
I have a similar but smaller contact list on my iPhone 5s. Is there any way to transfer the list from the iPhone to the Macbook? If so, could someone please explain the process, this old minded person cannot figure how to do it, if it is possible. Thank you in advance.

Yes.

My Iphone contact list has somehow been filled by Facebook.

My Contact list is ok on Icloud. How can I update my Iphone with my Icloud contact list and get rid of the other contacts.

Contacts>Groups...un-check Facebook. Also, if you don't want them on your phone at all, turn such off: Settings>Facebook.
