TS3276 how do you delete a contact from your mail address list?

i dont know that many details about my mac.. Geez! I just am trying to delete addresses from my mail that are no longer good, to avoid the 'unable to send' messages and I can't find any place that says do that, nor can i delete with keyboard, nor with trying to drag them to the trash.  Can anyone help me?  One would think it would be very simple.
PS: In language I can understand? thank you thank you thank you. !

Address Book in 10.6.8 (which your post says you are using) has a Delete Card item in the Edit menu. If you want to get rin of a complete card, use it. If you have more than one address on an individual's contact card as here:
click the Edit button at the bottom of the card to put it in edit mode:
then click the minus sign beside any that you want rid of.
Make sure that you clear them from the Previous Recipients window too.

  • How do you delete the contacts from "All on My Mac"

    How do you delete the contacts from "All on My Mac"? i have moved everything to iCloud and want to delete the contacts on my mac. 

    Signing out will not delete them from iCloud. Do it and read the message. It will give you the option to store address book contacts locally or just in iCloud. It will tell you that they will be available in iCloud when you sign back in.
    In Addition, signing your mac out of iCloud does not sign your other devices out of iCloud. Any info in iCloud will still be available to other devices.
    You can also access iCloud from the website https://www.icloud.com , which you can access from any computer at any time.

  • HT2729 How do you delete a Podcast from your Mac?

    How do you delete a Podcast from your MacBook Air?
    <Email Edited by Host>

    To delete an entire podcast you have subscribed to - with all its episodes - select it and hit delete. You will be asked whether you want to move it to the trash or leave it in the Library - if you choose the latter option it wil disappear from iTunes but the files will still be taking up space in the Library.
    If you have mistakenly chosen the keep option, go to (user)/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Podcasts and delete the files. Do not do this if you have not removed it from the iTunes application - delete it there to avoid messing up the indexing.

  • How do you delete all contacts from the iPod

    When I sync a new iPod it pulls all of the contacts that my iPhone has.  How do I delete them from just the iPod?

    Are you using the same iCloud ID on both devices?
    Is Contacts turned on in Settings>iCloud?
    If so then you will have the same contacts.
    Are you syncing contacts fro other services like Google contacts?

  • How do you delete duplicate songs from your iPhone that do not show up in your iTunes library?

    everytime i purchase songs on itunes and sync them to my iphone 4, the songs downloads twice. one as the actual song, and the second one doesnt do anything. when you click on it, it just skips to the next song and doesnt play anything. also this second song has this cirlce dot thing next to it when i am scrolling through my songs in my music...so how do i get rid of this second download? its really annoying to have and it wont let me delete it off my phone. alsoooo since it doesnt show up in my itunes library, i cant delte it off there either! HELP PLEASE

    On the springboard, locate the app you want to delete. For this example, I’ll use WeatherBug.
    Tap and hold down the icon of the application you want to delete. After a few seconds your screen will start to “wiggle” and an X will appear next to each of the apps you’ve installed via the App Store.
    Tap the X next to the icon of the app you want to remove. When prompted, selectDelete.
    And now it’s gone.
    If the application is listed in your iTunes Applications as well, you’ll want to remove it from there – or else it will re-install the next time you sync. Alternately you can keep the app in your iTunes Applications, and set iTunes not to sync all applications, just the ones you want to keep. See the Applications tab of your device the next time it’s connected in iTunes for syncing options.

  • TS1702 How do you delete an app from your iPad?

    My creditcard incurred a large bill from my child playing an app called, Magic Tree by Com2uS.  Can anyone tell me how to delete this game off an ipad?

    Well I cant run it from the screen anymore but its still installed after deleting the icon.  I can still go into Ipod apps and shows it installed and can click open and it runs.  Just makes it harder to run, but still takes up the space and is installed.

  • How do you delete microsoft word from your Mac?

    In september I got the 30 day trial for microsoft word, powerpoint, outlook, and excel. It's over now and I can't seem to delete it off of my mac air. I have done the two things that are normally suggested which are hold on to the app icon and then delete it when they all start wiggling, but that option doesn't work for those four because they don't show the delete sign in the corner. The other option was to drag it into my trash, but yet again, it doesnt work! Please someone help!

  • How do you delete all contacts on iPhone 4S? I have tried to sync my contacts and it has resulted in doubling and now tripling the

    How do you delete all contacts on iPhone 4S? I have tried to sync and end up w/duplicates and now triplicates. 4,000 contacts have now turned into 12,000 contacts!! I "upgraded" to Lion and hate it - it was so much easier before. I managed to delete on MacBook (to start from scratch there), but cannot delete from iphone or ipad. I am so frustrated! Please help

    Hi Cynthia!  If you are syncing from something like Gmail you can go into the iPhones Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>(account you are syncing)> and turn off contacts. It will ask you if you want to delete them from your phone - just click delete.  Exit Settings and turn phone off by power button (not all the way OFF).  Then re-open Settings>mail, Contacts, Calendars>(account you are syncing)> and turn Contacts back on - This is where you need to be careful - When you turn contacts back on you will be prompted to delete or save the contacts already on your phone. CLICK DELETE.  You should now have only your synced contacts on your phone!  Hope it helps!

  • How do you remove unified contacts from iphone4s

    how can you remove unified contacts from iphone4s

    Reading and researching for 6 days.  Apple keeps calling back again and again.  I admire their punctuality but they keep rushing me through the same solutions over and over again.  I am really disappointed that they have an instruction manual they do not diverge fron.  Today was the 4th day they called.  I had deleted my phone twice following their suggestion and reset all settings which brought my iphone back to an awkward, unfamiliar state.  Nothing worked.
    I used all apps that have been suggested here ('Spring Clean' and 'Cleanup').  Did not work. They kept returning a message that said I have NO contacts on my phone.  My correct set of contacts contains 499 backed up on iCloud and of those 388 unfortunately duplicate against themselves thus creating a set of 'Unified accounts'.
    After all this research, inablity to manually delete one by one, back up from itunes during sync, deleting and restoring phone, the app that worked for me is called 'MultiDelete'.  I found all the apps, did a test drive on a couple and worked.  Applied to all.  All contacts were erased.  Turned iCloud contacts back on... I still am in awe. Very please and surprised that a problem I have had for more than a year is resolved!
    No more duplicate contacts when calling from Viber, Skype and any other contact-related app! Yes!
