Remove Contacts from iPod

I need to remove the contacts from the iPod. HOW?
I unchecked the 'sync' mark under contacts tab and applied, but it will not remove contacts from iPod
Please help.

1. Make sure iPod is set up to be used as an external hard disk.
2. Connect iPod to your computer. The iPod appears as a hard disk on your desktop or in windows explorer.
3. Open the iPod hard disk.
4. Open the folder named "Contacts".
5. Find the vCard for the contact you want to delete.
6. Drag the vCard to the recycle bin.

Can't remove Contacts from iPod.

Even though the Sync Contacts From check box is unchecked under the Contacts Tab in iTunes (Version 8). My contacts are not being removed from my 5th Generation 30GB iPod.
The contacts are taking up space on my full iPod and wanna make more space for music.

Do a restore on the iPod. That will clear it out.
Cheers,
Patrick

HT1351 Removing contacts from iPod nano

I am synching my iPod nano to iTunes and cannot get it to remove my contacts. I have deselected contacts, but they remain on the iPod after synching is completed. What should I do?

Is the place where you "deselected contacts" is on the iPod's Info tab, with the checkbox that says Sync Contacts?
If so, and that did not work due to some data issue on the iPod, you may need to do a Restore on the iPod from the iPod's Summary tab in iTunes. This will erase the iPod (including that contacts data), re-install its software, and set it to default settings. Since you are using automatic syncing to load the iPod, all of your songs and other content must be in your iTunes library, so it should not be too tedious to set up the other tabs to sync like before.

Removing songs from itunes without removing them from ipod

Is it possible to remove songs from iTunes without removing them from iPod? When I attempt to delete songs from iTunes I get a warning that they'll be deleted from iPod as well. I've got Manually manage music and videos checked under Options in the Summary window.

You can delete songs from your iTunes/computer hard drive after transferring them to the iPod, and for this you need to set your iPod to manage the iPod content manually.
However, this is an extremely risky option because when (and not if) there comes a time to restore your iPod, which is a very common fix for iPod problems, then all the music would be erased. If you no longer have the music in iTunes (or any other back up), then all that music would be lost.
What if the iPod were lost/stolen/needed repair? Again, the music would lost. I strongly recommend a back up, and if computer hard drive space is in short supply, you should seriously consider an external hard drive. They are not expensive, and the cost is well worth it when compared to the loss of all your precious music.
At the very least back up your music to either cd or dvd before deleting it, particularly any purchased music/videos, as this would have to be bought again if it were lost. See these about backing up media.

To move music from iPod to computer, check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.
There is also CopyPod. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.

Remove Contacts from all Devices and PCs

Hi:
I'm an old Skype user and i have never been in the need of removing contacts since i had to remove one two weeks ago.
I did the "remove contact" from Skype for iPad... Then i logged in with skype for mac and everything ok, the contact was not showing in my list. But today, my Android Skype logged in accidentaly and it had an old contact list because it has been offline for weeks. When i checked the contacts, it showed the contact that i removed two weeks ago as "pending request", and then when i checked it in Skype for Mac it appeared again as "pending request".
My question is:
Is Skype sending a request to a contact that i removed when i sign in from a device that was not connected when i performed the removal?
Do this contact receive any kind of contact request when that happens? or is it only a sync problem between devices?
I'm concerned because i don't want to seem sending a request every time i sign in from a device that was not connected when i actually removed that contact for privacy reasons.
Regards!

All Contacts is exactly what it says, all of your contacts. You can't remove contacts from that group.

Removing Contacts from Multiple Campaign Canvases

Hi everyone,
We're dealing with an issue on managing the flow of contacts in our automated campaigns. We currently have 3 automated email drips that are based on the content that prospects engaged with to initially enter our database. Then, contacts flow into the next canvas based on internal prioritization of the tracks. However, we also run a new thematic campaign every quarter that has fresh content and pulls contacts out of our automated programs based on Title, Engagement, Industry, etc.
The problem is that every time we launch a new thematic campaign, we're forced to go back into our automated drip programs and add shared filters based on the new campaign's criteria before each email step.
My idea is to have the newly segmented contacts enter a program that checks what other campaign canvases they are in and then remove them. This would solve our issue of having contacts in multiple campaigns at the same instance, which would allow us to easily transfer newly engaged contacts into our quarterly thematic campaign.
Am I thinking about this in the correct way? Can you remove contacts from specific canvases in Program Builder?
Thanks,
Parker

Need more info...what application/applications are you presently syncing contacts with? OS on your computer? Are you syncing contacts over the air? Are your contacts correct on your computer?

Why does sync remove songs from iPod?

why does sync remove songs from iPod? My itune library lost songs with an ! symbol.

It means iTunes can no longer locate those particular files at the specified location on your PC's hard drive. So you'll need to search for these track's on your PC and re-import these tracks from their new location.

Is it possible to remove "Contacts" from my Mac mini and the reinstall it?

Is it possible to remove "Contacts" from my Macmini and then reinstall it?

The Contacts program has changed the name of a contact that I had a correct email address.
The example you gave (now removed by a moderator) doesn't show that the email address changed. It shows that the recipient's name associated with the address changed. I don't know why that happened, but it doesn't necessarily indicate a problem with Contacts. You might have had two contacts with the same address.
I don't seem to have a Address button in my toolbar.
Open a message-editing window and select
View ▹ Customize Toolbar...
from the menu bar. From the sheet that opens, drag the button labeled Address upward (not downward) into the toolbar if it's not already there, then click Done.
Click the button to see a list of your contacts. You can make multiple selections.

HT203216 Can you remove contacts from an ipod updated with iTunes 11 software?

Does anyone know how you can remove all contacts from an iPod under the new iTunes 11 software? We sync to one family account and the kids don't want my contacts - how can you delete them? We can't find the area to select to eliminate the sync of the contacts when the iPod is synced to our account. Anyone able to help?

itunes will now look more like itunes 10.
You can click on your device in the lefthand window as before
You may prefer to use the Music Sync page to select or deselect Playlists, Artists, Albums etc and click apply.
Delete your files is enabled by ticking the Manualy manage music option on the Device Summary page. You may have to scroll down to find it

ITunes removed contacts from iPhone and will no longer sync

iTunes 10 on OS X Lion removed all my contacts from my iPhone 3G and will no longer sync them. I had about 500 contacts, I'm not about to enter them manually. Now I have no idea who is calling or texting. This is absolutely ridiculous! There is absolutely no support!

If iTunes will not sync contacts to your iPhone4...
Go to
Settings
Main, contacts etc.
scroll down to "Contacts"
under "contacts you see a list. Choose the menu "Default Account"
You will see a choice between "From My Mac" and "iCloud"...select "From my Mac"
This solution worked for me!
