Is there a setting in Contacts so I can I print mailing labels with just the last name of my contacts?

I'd like to print mailing labels that just show the person's last name, no first names. For example just "Smith," not John Smith. Is there a way to do this?

Is there a way to add my ipod touch to find my phone with just the serial number?

My Ipod touch 5G recently got stolen and i was wondering if there was a way i could add my ipod to find my phone with just the serial number.

Sorry, it can only be enabled on the device itself. You might also want to read this: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen.

Last name duplicating in contacts...

I'm in the Army National Guard and I have my military contacts list as title and last name in the first name field, i.e. CPT (captain) Doe. My contacts are set to sort by first name and it makes it really easy to find my military contacts this way.
However since owning my first iPhone in 2007 I've had an issue with the last name "Doe" duplicating in the last name field, so contacts will show up as CPT Doe Doe. I go in and edit the contacts and its not hard but I don't understand why it does it. Today I saw about 6 names in my contacts list like that but the other military names don't seem to do it.
I have a Macbook, iPhone 4S and iPad 2 all set up to sync contacts with iCloud and thats it. Any thoughts?

Since these must be related issues, let's have one thread, not multiple.

Delete the "last names" of all my contacts

Hello
I would like to use an AppleScript to delete all the "last names" of all contacts of address book. Anyone could help me with the code?
Thanks

No update will "kill your contacts" if you are syncing them to a supported address book or cloud service as intended.

If you need assistance with finding any of your restores or attempting to restore from any that happened prior to his incident follow this article
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
IF you do find a backup that has your contacts; I'd /highly/ recommand turning off your wifi network after the restore is finished because if the issue is with your iCloud your contacts may merge back with her's.
With iCloud you DO NOT want to share the account; bad things happen Evil evil thigns...
But in all seriousness; if two devices have the same iCloud; iCloud is told to merge and sync infomation between hte two and can't tell that it doesn't belong to the same person

I have many contacts in address book from a certain company that just changed its name. Is there a way to globally change all the contacts to the new company name all at once?

Address Book has no global find/replace. Bob Grove suggested one possible workaround; however, a grep-capable text editor (eg, TextWrangler) is better than TextEdit if complex strings are involved.
An alternative is Bento (which is designed specifically to interact with the AB database), but it's not free.

Yahoo's servers are notoriously unreliable. Use the "Yahoo" account type when setting it up. If it doesn't work, and you are positive the credentials are correct, wait a while and try again.
While you're waiting, set up a free gmail or iCloud email account.

First name and last name order in contact list

Actually, my contact list is displayed with the last name before the first name, but everything is fine in Address Book settings (I choosed "First name, Last name" option), and I checked that first name and last name has not been reversed for some reasons between two fields, the first name is right in place, as is the last name.
So changing this is AddressBook has no effect.
I tried disabling Chax, without success.
It could be possible this problem occured when I enabled Microsoft Exchange address book synchronization, (iSync reported 500+ changes in AB database, I did it anyway and noticed no problems in data after synchronization (I still have a backup :-))
One more thing , the displayed name in the iChat menu extra is correct.
So, what could possibly change this behavior I did not already check ?

Hi Yann,
If you add details to the Address card in iChat as you add a Buddy then you need the first set of instructions I posted.
You nee this menu in iChat http://www.flickr.com/photos/90943061@N00/135575605/
In the second section of this menu you can sort the list.
<hr>
Ahhh. I see what you mean.
iChat does in fact always display First Name, Last Name as you say.
Adding a Buddy with the names in the reverse order to display as you want in iChat your Address book gets messed up as it is not consistent with those contacts that are not iChat Buddies.
The only work around I can see is to change all the Address Book entries to match a reverse entry in iChat and then use the Address Book option to display Last Name, First name to show them the 'correct' Fist name, Last name and have them in Last name, First name in iChat.

How to arrange contacts in my Addess Book starting with the last name, re-doing them all at once, not individually. (I have 910 names in my Address Book).

This is a new computer. I see that my addresses have been arranged so that they read from the first name -- i.e. Jimmy Brown comes under 'J', not 'B'. I should like to put them all so that they read from the last name, first. I can do this individually but very much hope that there is a way that I can do ALL of them in ONE go? There are 910 addresses! Thank you very much, Frederica

First step is to set the address book to show last name and then the first.
Open the Address Book
Select View-Show Name As-Last, First
Then click on the column header labeled NAME to sort on that column.

Listing my contacts by the last name

Right now my Droid phone lists all the contacts by the first name. It is in sync with my google email contacts that are listed by the last name. Can I change this so the contacts are listed by last name on my Motorola Droid. I know I can easily do a search, but I prefer scrolling down by last name. Any assistance you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Yes you can "sort" by Company Name BUT....you cannot "search" by Company Name -- when you try a search it just keeps searching in the "name" fields and does NOT return a Company Name.
--if you know the name of the person you want to call (which you more than likely will) then searching by name is fine
but
--if you can't remember their name (or there are multiple names) but want to look up the company and then scroll through list of names at that company -- forget it -- I can't make it work.

Cannot erase the middle name field in contacts?

I cannot erase the Middle Name Field in Contacts, is this a bug or is there a trick?

I would suggest raising a SR for this with Customer Support as it looks like issues around language translation

Mail in Yosemite puts incoming mails in spam, even the sender is in my contacts.

mail (Yosemite) puts incoming mails in spam, even the sender is in my contacts.

Hello martinamm,
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. I understand that you have some mail that is automatically being filtered to spam, even though the contacts are in your address book. The following resource provides a few more steps you can attempt to resolve this:
Mail (Yosemite): If junk mail filters aren’t working correctly
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19190
If messages are incorrectly marked as junk
There are several ways you can prevent Mail from incorrectly marking legitimate messages as junk.
- Tell Mail that a message is legitimate by marking it as not junk. Click Not Junk in the banner of the message; or select the message, then click the Not Junk button in the Mail toolbar.
- Add the sender to the Contacts app. For more information, see Save addresses, events, passes, and more.
- Review your junk mail settings in Mail preferences, as well as any rules you might have created to handle junk mail, and make changes as necessary.
Cheers,
Matt M.

Call your local Apple store. Not sure how the phone system works in the UK, but here in the US there is a menu system that allows you to make an appointment. Or, you can go online to www.apple.com/retail, or you can use the Apple Store app and make an appointment there after selecting the particular store.

How can I change the fonts in "contacts" when printing mail labels

How can I change the fonts in "contacts" when printing mail labels ? I used to be able to do this but in Mavericks this ability seems to have gone away. Am I missing something ?

Actually in my case it doesn't work. I used to be able to pull up the font window with it but the button merely flickers when I click it. The image selection button and font color both are functional. WEIRD. I don't think this is a Mavericks issue as I recall having it come up with one of my user profiles before installing. Now I can't make it happen with either of my user profiles.
I don't seem to have printing issues in other applications. And I recently reset the fonts in a futile attempt to correct this.
I may post a new topic in Mail Contacts and Calendar if there is no response here after a bit.

Is there a setting in Contacts so I can I print mailing labels with just the last name of my contacts?
