Itunes combined two contact lists on our iphone

My daughter set up our itunes account on our family
computer. We have I phones on a family plan. I logged on with my iphone and purchased some music with what I thought was "our" itunes account. Somehow, my daughters iphone contacts merged with mine and mine with hers. I deleted what I thought were strange contacts -which were my daughters contacts -which deleted all her friends. How can we seperate out the two phones and two contact lists? Is there anyway to get her contacts back? We apprently can't have 2 itunes accounts since we only have one computer.

I'm afraid this is gonna be a bit of a pig.
First things first, change your default contact list to your exchange account, not "On your iPhone". Settings > Mail, Cont, Cals > Under Contacts change default account to your EAS.
I'm going to guess you have an exchange account with contacts and thats where you originally wanted all these scanned contacts to go?
There's no easy way to do this, but I can see you doing this 2 ways.
1. Opening each contact individually and click Share and email to your exchange account and Save into exchange contacts.
2. Sync your contacts from "On My iPhone" to Outlook (configure in iTunes). Try to sync to an alternative computer or different profile on the same computer so that you don't duplicate your existing Outlook/exchange contacts.
When done, import those contacts you've just extracted into your normal Outlook exchange account.
Don't forget to delete your 'On My Iphone' contacts to avoid confusion.
Hope that makes sense.

  • HT2486 can I have two contact lists on one mac book pro?  I need one to sync with my iphone, one to sync with my husband's iphone.

    can I have two contact lists on one mac book pro?  I need one to sync with my iphone, one to sync with my husband's iphone.

    I agree with Chris CA that this is the way I would *expect* iTunes to behave.
    When I look at iTunes from my account (my music is in ~/Music/iTunes/ and not available to my spouse's account), I can see in my music library all my rips and my purchases, just as I would expect. I can use Store>View My Account (<myAppleID>) and all is as expected. Home sharing is NOT on.
    Doing the same from the other account is not much different, actually. Nothing in the library yet, of course. Store>View My Account (<herAppleID>) also works. I CAN authorize my computer to play her music. I CAN view her iTunes purchases. When I attempt to download the purchases to HER library, though, I get the following dialog box:
    Now I interpret this to mean that this computer (mine) will not download from a different AppleID (also mine) for 90 days. Is that [interpretation] correct?

  • HT2693 my iphone 4 damaged and all my contact list inside my iphone. How can i reterive my contact list through itune? please ..

    Im really appreciate if you can solve my problem, regrding my iphone 4 was damaged. whats i need is all my contact list inside my iphone. please if can retrive all my contact list.  please reply me asap. Thanks
    az

    What you can do is, go to Settings-> facebook-> Your name-> delete account-> delete-> remove facebook info.
    This will remove all the fb contacts. but before you again sign your fb account into your iOS, have the option of contacts set to off.

  • Recover my the contact list in my iphone 5

    how can i recover the contact list in my iphone 5

    It depends on where you backed it up!
    If it's in your iCloud account, simply go to Settings > iCloud and make sure you've turned Contacts "On".
    If it's synched to your iTunes on your computer, a resync should restore it.

  • HT4389 recovering unintenial contact list o my Iphone 4S

    Hello Chuck,
    You have  2 options here that I can see. 1 is to restore your iPhone from a backup that would have had to have been created before this happened in iTunes.
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    If there is not one, then you can see if there are any contacts at www.icloud.com. If so then you can either export the contacts to your computer, and import them to the Contacts app, then sync them over to the iPhone
    iCloud: Export contact information as a vCard
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3606
    Address Book 6.x: Export and import vCards
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ph4655
    Or, setup iCloud on your iPhone and sync them down from the Cloud.

  • How do i erase a corrupt contact list from iCloud,iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro and restore Address Book backup to all devices and cloud?

    how do i erase a corrupt contact list from iCloud,iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro and restore Address Book backup to all devices and cloud?
    I saved a corrected, most up to date version of my master Address Book Contacts as a back-up on my Mac Book Pro.
    then in an effort to "simplify my life"  i attempted to sync my I phone contacts - ( pre clean-up version) with my clean list on Mac Book Pro, New I pad and newly available icloud. DUH!! Using iTunes to do the sync caused the clean MacBOOK Pro list to be commingled with the dirty iphone contacts. amd now the whole mess is in the cloud. 
    I need to clear out the contaminated lists from all iplaces, and startover with Back-up on my macbook pro. BUT HOW???
    Help
    Karen

    I had exported an address book backup: abbu
    so since i wrote, i have found my way into the cloud: selected all entries - deleted them all from the cloud.
    This wiped out contacts on my iphone and i pad, and MBP, as well as on the cloud.  I then imported the abbu back into my now empty address book. 
    To repopulate the crowd, i selected all in my address book and created a single card vCard for export to my desktop.  I then dragged that vcard into my empty cloud.  Now my cloud has the same clean contacts as my MBP addressbook.  The cloud then pushed the clean contacts into my empty ipad and iphone contacts. 
    I had to go back to Address Book>preferences>Accounts and Add an I cloud account - but if you accidentally create a second i cloud account - all of a sudden your address book will duplicate itself.  I quickly reversed it by deleting one of the icloud accounts in my Address Book>preferences>Accounts. 
    I created a new entry on my MBP and it is now on all devices and in cloud
    I also created a new entry on my iPhone and it is now in the address book on my MBP.
    I feel empowered!!
    Have i missed anything??

  • How do I recover contact list from my Iphone 4?

    How do I recover contact list from my Iphone 4 if I do not have ICloud and do not have the ITunes sync installed/

    If you don't have backups, theres really not much that can be done other than to have everyone you know send you their numbers/emails again.
    Also, backup your contacts twice from now on. Use iCloud and Lookout Mobile Security.
    Make regular iPhone backups to keep this from happening again.

  • HT4356 Is there a way to print a contact list from an iPhone?

    Is there a way to print a contact list from an iPhone?

    Another way to do this is to use Contact Sheet (https://itunes.apple.com/app/id894488957?mt=8) which can print your contacts and pictures or it can export them into an Excel file.  You can print all of your contacts or just a select group that you choose.  You can even share contacts and only include the fields you want, so, for example, if you want to share email addresses with a new mom's group but you don't want to share home addresses, you can create a contact share file (VCF) that only includes the names and email addresses of the members of your new mom's group!

  • After I edited my contact list on my iphone I set up the icloud account.  Now all of my old contacts have been added to the edited ones.  If I delete the icould will I lose all of my contacts or just the ones brought in by icloud?

    You cannot delete an Apple ID, you can just stop using it. If your photos are still on your phone now, then I suggest you do back them up. Transfer them from the phone into your iPhoto Library. iCloud only backs up your Camera Roll automatically. But the Camera Roll only contains new photos that were taken but not yet transferred using iTunes.

  • HT4759 I do not want my facebook contacts listed on my iphone. How do i stop that?

    I do not want my facebook contacts listed on my iphone. How do i stop that?

    - What is the source of the videos? If taken by the iPod you can transfer them to the new computer by:
    Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer
    - If they were iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - If they were synced to the iPod and not iTunes purchases then you need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView.

  • Can someone help me recover my contact list from my iphone 3gs, if the phone is stolen?

  • HT204053 How can I get the contacts list on my iPhone to appear in my iPad Air

    How can I get the contact list on my iPhone to appear in my iPad Air?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Please try the following…
    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

  • I have all my devices connected to iCloud.  I would like a reduced contact list on my iPhone without removing any from my master list on my computer.  How do I delete contact numbers from my phone without disrupting the master list on my computer?

    I have all my devices connected to iCloud.  I would like a reduced contact list on my iPhone without removing any from my master list on my computer.  How do I delete contact numbers from my iphone without disrupting the master list on my computer?

    Are you trying to reduce the visual clutter on the phone, save space on the phone, or limit the security exposure if your phone is stolen?
    If you are only wanting to reduce the visual clutter and make scrolling through the list faster, you could set up a group on the computer containing only the contacts you want to see on my phone (called, for example, "Show on my Phone") and enable only that group inside Contacts on the phone. You might even have one or more existing groups that you could enable that way (maybe "Family" and "Personal").

Maybe you are looking for
