i want my current updated contacts saved in icloud...
hello-
i just got a new iphone 6+. instead of having verizon add all my previous contacts onto it, i decided to add all my contacts individually to my new phone. i dont really know how to use icloud so please forgive me if my question has an obvious answer.
after adding all my current contacts to my new phone, i wanted to save them in icloud. i was given the option if i wanted to merge this contacts list with my contacts in my icloud. misinterpreting "merge" as "erase and update", i selected merge. well that was a mistake on my part.
so then i started the process all over. i added all my current contacts to my new phone again.
what i want to know is, how do i keep this current list of contacts saved in my icloud? i do not want those old outdated contacts currently in my icloud added to my updated contacts list....and especially not added to this phone.
i think my icloud has contacts saved from my yahoo mail accounts, my old iphone 5s and my old iphone 4s...so some contacts show up as 3 or 4 times.
any help, comments or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
thank you for your time and for your assistance.
iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8.3
