Depends on how you sync contacts. You need to do that on your computer, assuming the contact app you use on your computer supports groups. Or, you can use iCloud:
So there's no way to group friends, family, work, etc. together?
I use multiple computers, iMac at home, PC at work,.
Hi Charles:
You have to do it manually though.
In the Contacts program on your Mac go to the File menu and create a new group. You have several options.

Hope these help.
The way I do it is with iCloud. I use the iCloud plugin for MS Outlook for my work PC and iCloud for my iMac at home. You then choose which groups to sync on all your devices.
