TA38622 how do you delete a contact name and phone number from this?  i have deleted it from my regular contacts, but it remains in a text memory when i begin to type the beginning of a name

How do I delete a contact name and phone number from my texting memory?  I have deleted this contact from my regular contact information; however when I text and begin to text a contact beginning with the 1st letter of the name I had deleted, it brings up the old, deleted contact information in my texting history only.

You would have to restore as new.

    How do you enter an extension to a phone number in contacts?

    From OSX daily:The easiest way is through your iPhone or add a semicolon ";" NOT a comma in Mac Address book .
    Though you’ve long been able to add automatically dialed extensions to contacts on the iPhone, the newest versions of iOS handle extensionsmuch more intelligently, allowing you to create a “Dial Extension” button to any specific contact. That extension dialer can be activated manually, making the navigation of telephony menus infinitely easier, here’s how to quickly add this to a contact:
    Open Contacts and tap the contact name to add the extension to, then tap the “Edit” button
    Tap the phone number entry, place the cursor at the end, then tap the “+*#” button to access additional options
    Choose “wait” then enter the extension afterwards, it will add a semicolon and the extension afterwards to the address appearing like so: 1-888-555-5555;123
    Tap “Done” and exit out of contacts
    Now dial the contact to discover a “Dial 123″ button has appeared, tap that whenever you want to dial the extension
    The extensions can also be added from a Mac in Contacts (Address Book) by adding a semicolon to numbers followed by an extension, just be sure to sync it through the same iCloud account or it won’t go over to the iPhone.
    Anyone who frequently uses extensions to reach specific people at an office, or anyone who has battled an automated phone system knows how useful this can be. You can even set a string of numbers, though the Dial button remains the same.

  • Somehow my iPad got switched for messaging to showing from my email. There is no option showing to use my phone number. How do I get it back to my phone number? This happened when I upgraded my iPhone today, but it is using the phone number fine.

    Somehow my iPad got switched for messaging to showing from my email. There is no option showing to use my phone number. How do I get it back to my phone number? This happened when I upgraded my iPhone today, but the iPhone messaging is using the phone number fine. It's only the iPad messaging that is messed up. Help, pls.
    thanks!

    You can link the phone number to the iPad again, if you follow the instructions here.

  • How can you add an extension to a phone number

    How is it possible to add an extension to a phone number in contacts, so that when you call the number its extension direct  dials?

    To begin, determine which contact you want to add the phone extension to
    Then, in either your phone app or Contacts app, tap that contact
    Tap the "Edit" button at the top right of the contact
    Tap the phone number you want to add the extension to
    Tap the "+*#" button at the bottom left of the screen
    When the new options come up on the screen, you'll see a "pause" button at the bottom center. Tap that
    That will add a comma to the phone number. After the comma has been added to the phone number, type in the person's phone extension

  • How do you add an extension to a phone number in iCloud?

    I just attempted to edit a contact's business telephone by adding an extension to the end.
    Here's what the number looked like to start:  (212) 555-1234
    My goal:  (212) 555-1234 x101
    What resulted in iCloud when I hit save:  2125551234101
    I tried several different ways of formatting the addition of the extension, but none worked.  The results all ended up exactly the same.  Anyone have any insight as to how to make this work?
    Thanks much!

    From what I read, using a comma to separate the main number from the extension should work.  It inserts a pause, with each additional comma increasing the length of the pause.  So:
    4155551234,,3710484
    might be long enough for the automated system to pick up and reach the point where it'll accept the extension number.  If not, add more commas.
    Commas will also sync to your iPhone if you have one, and work as intended.

  • How do you send an iMessage with my phone number, not an email address

    Ever since I have had this iPhone on pay as you go with Vodafone in September, I have not had an option to use my phone number, it doesn't bother me as such but my friends get annoyed as one hour I'd reply on text as their contact and the next it will use iMessage when I have Internet as my apple Id email address. How do I do this!!!!

    There is no option, just emails. I signed out of apple Id and signed back in, it asked me to use either my number of email so I deselected my email but the phone number was greyed out, it hasn't activated again so I don't think it has worked.

  • How Do You Add An Extension For A Phone Number?

    Hello:
    AS indicated, you would just add it after the last part of the number (in that box).

  • HT1296 How can I stop and delete facebook names and phone numbers from my iphone

    How can I stop facebook names and phone numbers from being downloaded to my iphone and how can I delete the ones that are already there?

    A better way might be
    Settings > Facebook > Contacts > turn off.
    There are other Facebook settings you might want to leave on. But I also prefer to turn off Calendar there as well to keep every Facebook friends birthday from clogging up my calendar app.

    Quote from the article.
    Time Machine in OS X Lion includes a new feature called "local snapshots" that keeps copies of files you create, modify or delete on your internal disk. Local snapshots compliment regular Time Machine backups (that are stored on your external disk or Time Capsule) giving you a "safety net" for times when you might be away from your external backup disk or Time Capsule and accidentally delete a file.
    So what makes a notebook any different then a desktop, other then with a desktop you might have your tm backup drive connected all the time.
    The object here is to not indiscriminately delete files you need or want to keep. I personally have never deleted a file I wanted to keep.
    In essence a backup is for catastrophic failure of your system. So it can be restored once that failure has been fixed. Not because you go in willy nilly and start deleting files.

  • I am totally frustrated by the fact that now i have gone to iCloud and after a few synchs, my contacts are all mixed up with the wrong information.  For instance, my email and phone number comes up under someone else's name (a thousand contacts)

    An icloud account is designed to be used by just one user.  If you have given your ID or set up your account on someone else's device, then their data will be mingled with your or worse.

    Has your carrier been having issues with Call Display? Do the telephone numbers come up when people call, or does it just show 'Unknown Number' or 'Blocked' ?

  • I have no Admin account now, and keeps asking me to: Type an administrator's name and password to allow this.

    i've installed the new beta Yosemite. After i found i didnt like it, i decided to return to Mavericks. Now, at the installation process i dont know what happened and now i dont have any admin account. so, the system keeps asking me to Type an administrator's name and password to allow this. and i cant do anything, because i only have an standard and a guest account. How can i make my standard account an admin one. Also, this makes me sick, because i cant install or configure anything.
    ps. i regret about installing Yosemite beta. not good at all

    Do you still have a Recovery partition? To see if you do, hold down the command and R keys whilst booting and erase your boot drive and then reinstall the version of OS X that you last paid for or downloaded.
    Call back if that doesn't work...

  • Type an administrator's name and password to allow this

    I upgraded to Mountain Lion a few days ago.
    There is now some updates available for the computer on the Apple Store which I unfortunately can't download anything as a message saying an error has occurred keeps turning up, 3072.
    I read stuff on this forum about closing the other accounts that may be using itunes...still nothing
    It now asks me to type an administrator's name and password to allow this.
    I realisez that my account was actually able to be used as an Administrator on the computer as it wasn't previously set up.
    When I go to System Preferences to allow my account to administrate the computer, I actually need to unlock the lock on the bottom left in order to make some changes.
    However it's asks an administrator's name and passwork in order to make some changes.
    Seems like I am a stranger of my own Mac as I can't do anything.
    Any suggestion please? as the computer has been running so slow for the past few days, I'm hoping after a software update everything will be back to normal.
    Many thanks
