Previous Recipients List is Empty, But They Still Show Up

OK, weird issue...
Over the years my previous recipients list has gotten pretty junked up. I read on the forum if I wanted to start from scratch to delete the file in the ~/Library/Application Support/Address Book/ that contained the info. I did that, restarted and when I look at Mail in the Previous Recipients list (Window/Previous Recipients) it is empty. However, when I start to type an address in Mail it is still pulling some info from somewhere that is not in my address book. Any ideas out there?

No one is smart enough to help me out on this one? I am sure someone has seen this!

    No don't restore your iphone. I've done that several times & it has never worked. -I still have deleted contacts in my iphone texts.  *However if you do restore it you will not lose all your data, pics, text messages etc if you backup in iCloud. It restores back to original phone. Very nice :). Anyhowwww....
    I JUST  figured it out!! :))). Remove the contact from recents.
      Start a text. You should see the deleted contact. All the way to the right of the name is a symbol. The symbol is a circle with "i" in the middle. Click that symbol then in red lettering click "remove from recents".

    Hi asims01,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The information below may be able to answer your questions about how to delete songs from your iPhone:
    Deleting songs downloaded to your device
    Tap the Music app.
    Tap More > Songs at the bottom.
    Scroll or search for the song you would like to delete from your device.
    Swipe right to left on the song, and then tap Delete.
    Note: You must be in Artists, Songs, or Albums view to delete songs from your device. Deleting from a playlist won't remove a song from your iOS device.
    Also, this information can be found on page 64 of the iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    Remove a song from iPhone. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.
    If you have iOS 7, this will delete the song from local storage, but the song will still appear with a cloud symbol in the Music app, as you've noticed. To hide the iTunes in the Cloud purchases, navigate to Settings > iTunes & App Store, and disable "Show All: Music”
    There may be a few orphaned songs on your iPhone that were partially downloaded or corrupted in some way. If that is the case, you can erase all of the music from your phone.  Follow the instructions below and select the Music app under Usage:
    iPhone, iPad, and iPod: Understanding capacity

    I hope this information helps ....

  • I deleted some of my text message histories to get rid of 'other' space (6.33 gb). They were gone from iMessage, but they still showed up in search, so they were still taking up space on my phone. I synced my iPhone (4s) but the messages are still there.

    I deleted some of my text message histories to get rid of 'other' space (6.33 gb). They were gone from iMessage, but they still showed up in search, so they were still taking up space on my phone. I synced my iPhone (4s) with iTunes but the messages are still there. How can I get rid of these texts for good and have more space on my phone? 6.33 gb of other space is way too much, thats almost half of my overall available space (13.5 gb.) I don't want to reset my phone and lose all my other texts/ app progress/ photos. I do have backups, but when I restore from the backup the other space comes back along with everything else. What can I do to get rid of this other space and the 'deleted' text messages? (I'm running iOS 6.1.3 if that helps)

    But once again, I do not want to lose my other texts, app progress, and photos. I could sync the photos but i would still lose the app progress and texts. I would only restore if it was the only option left, but the other space, as already stated, isnt the main concern. The main concern is those 'deleted' texts. If they go, then a good size chunk of the other space goes. I know you CAN delete texts for good. It worked fine before. All i want to know is why its not working for me now, and how to fix it.
    I also know that when you delete texts on your iphone, they get marked for deletion, however they stay on your device (thats why they show up when you search for them.) then when you sync your device with itunes, the texts marked for deletion should disappear. When i synced they didnt disappear. Thats what i need an explanation/solution for. Why the texts marked for deletion didnt get fully deleted after the sync.

  • Is there a way to hide apps from the app store? I don't want my kids to see those "free" apps that nag you to spend real money and download their other apps! I can hide them from "purchased apps", but they still show up when browsing for new apps!

    Not other than parental oversight. On the computer you can implement Parental Controls on a separate user account that they would use. You can then block certain websites. But you cannot do that on the iPad.
    You could change your iTunes account such that they cannot access it in order to buy or download apps.

  • TS1424 When i try to download or update my apps. Message pop out "there is an billing problem on your previous purchased". I tried to change my visa acct no. Still unable to access. Tried to create new itune account & access but they still showed old itun

    When tried to download or update it showed"there is a problem in billing from previous purchased" changed to new payment account still unable to access. Created new itune account still cant access, keep showing old account detailed. & asked for verification. Pls assist. Thank you.

    Also when I apply the safety copy it only imports the app the phones have had in common, so none of the apps that only the iPhone 4 had doesn't come in, only the ones I and the iPhone 4 has had in common. So you say the only way I can use the Apple ID to download on the old iPhone 4 is if I delete the apps that are in the phone and then download them again? How will that change the ID to download/update from. Won't it still have mine to update/download from?

  • I'm trying to make some room on my iMac hard rive, which is almost full after 4 years of movies,music, pictures, etc.  I bought an external hard drive and thought I moved most of the movies and pics to the ext drive, but they still show as taking up space

    I recently got a message saying that my startup disk was almost full.  I tried moving files on to an external drive to make some space, but the files still show as taking up room when I look at my product info storage.  The files appear to have been moved and deleted off of my internal drive.  I copied them from one to the other and then moved the ones on the internal to my trash and then emptied the trash folder.  What else can I do.   When I open iMovie, even though I moved the movies from the iMovie folder, they still load as iMovie thumbnails, which takes forever.  I appreciate any suggestions.  Thanks.

    First of all make sure that you've definitely backed up the movies to your external hard disc.
    In iMovie click on any event you don't want, go to the file menu and select 'move event to trash'. Then do the same for any unwanted projects - 'move project to trash'. Quit out of iMovie and empty the trash.
    Hope that helps!

  • HT201322 I have deleted tv shows I purchased but they still show up on my iphone.  They are not in the cloud or in Itunes under purchased.

    I deleted some old music videos and 6 tv shows from ITunes.  I had purchased them.  Yet they still appear on my Iphone (yes they do have a cloud in the bottom right corner), but they don't show up in my purchases when  sign in and check in the cloud, nor do they show up in Itunes.  It is as if they are hung up in the cloud, and I cant delete them.  There is no trace of them anywhere in the ITunes Library or Cloud.  I see them in my Recycle bin on the desktop.  Any suggestions?  Been to Apple 3xs this week.  They keep giving me the mini tutorial on hiding purchases and deleting unwanted items from itunes, but nothing is there, it is merely not going away...meaning still on my phone, even when wiped clean and itunes downloaded again. Anyone?  Thank you.

    If they are showing in the Videos app with a cloud then go into Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and set Videos (under the 'Show All') heading 'off' - you might (depending upon which country that you arein) have a similar button for music and the Music app.

  • HT4915 When i did my itunes match, there were some duplicated albums and songs.  I have gone into my library and deleted the duplicates, but they still show up on my iphone as duplicates.  What can i do to get rid of them?

    When I did my itunes match, there were some duplicated albums and songs in my library.  I have gone back into my library from my computer, and deleted the duplicates.  When I did so, itunes did not ask me if I wanted to delete them from the cloud.  They are still showing up on my iphone as duplicates in the cloud.  What can I do to get them from showing up in my iphone?

    They are not on the iphone in the first place.  It is just a setting that allows you to see the songs that are available in icloud, but not on your iphone.  If you turn the setting to off, then you no longer see the songs that are in icloud, but NOT on your iphone.

  • I lost all my files (photo, music, documents, ect), but they still show on the Mac HD.

    My wife created a new account from our joint admin account. She also made that second account an admin. account. Then she went into the new account and played around with the file sharing option in system prefereneces. She was unable to get the accounts to share, so she deleted the new account and restarted the computer. Now, our first/main admin. account has lost all the files. There are no documents, photos or media in the origianl admin account. However, when I go into finder and click "get info" on the Mac HD, it still shows that 300GB are used. I understand this to mean that the lost files are still on the HD. But I am unable to figure out how to get them back onto our user account. Can anyone help me?

  • I have deleted bookmarks, but they still show up in the 'unorganized bookmarks', how do I get rid of them? They do not show up on the bookmarks menu or toolbar, or 'organize bookmarks' Please help

    There is a total of three. I have tried many different ways, but can't get rid of them. They are not bookmarked on Firefox, but in the past there was a person on this computer that used my 'side' of the home computer without authorization. I will try erasing history next, other than that, haven't the slightest idea of how to get rid of them. I don't go to those sites, and want them gone (as does my wife).

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • TS1702 Having deleted contacts deleted but they still show up

  • ITunes deleted all my music from my iPod, but they still show up when I plug in the iPod.

    Hi!
    I had my iPhone 4S plugged into my computer, and I was listening to the music on my phone from the music library on my phone through iTunes. Well, after the phone got disconnected, I plugged it back in, and I was unable to play any of the songs on my iPod. I figured it was a glitch, so I unplugged and plugged it back in, but still, the same thing happened. Then I checked my iPhone, and found that only 24 songs remained, all of which could be played just fine, and all of which I had downloaded directly to my phone from the iTunes app on my phone. However, whenever I plug in my phone, all of the songs show up, but when I try to click on any of the non-24 that are on my phone, I get that exclamation point.
    Is there a way to fix this? Or is the only option to readd all the songs?
    Thank you!

    Also, what causes this, so I can avoid it in the future?
