How to change My Card on iPhone

Create a new contact with your correct info, set that as "My Card" in:

Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Contacts > My Info

My Card continuously assigns my son's card to my profile. Same first and last names, different middle name and address (we live about 1,000 miles apart. I don't want to delete his card. How can I make it "freeze" My Card to my profile?

What did you do? I have iPhone 5s with ios10 and i tried deleting the contact and i made sure the setting is set to my info. When i go to contacts app i still have wrong name and picture there but if i tap on my card then my correct details and pic shows. just displays wrong "cover" info

It's definitely a Facebook problem. I had same issue. I fixed it by going to settings, contacts and changed My Info to my contact in address book. Then, went back to settings under Facebook, disabled all allowances/permissions. Restarted device. It showed no My Card person in Contacts. So, then I re-enabled all Facebook permissions in settings. I tapped on the Update all Facebook contacts and viola! It now shows myself as home person in my contacts.

This is one of these head-slapping, why-didn't-I-figure-this-out fixes once you know it. (And I didn't either.) Go to Settings, select Mail-contacts-calendar, scroll down to My Info under Contacts and tap it, scroll through the contacts list until you find your card, select it, and close.

First, go to "Settings" on your i Phone's touch screen. Next, scroll down until you reach "My info". Click on that and it will pull up your Contacts list. Simply school through to find yourself in the Contact's list and select yourself. This will result in the phone correctly replacing the other person's name with yours.

If you’re on macOS, what you need to do is open Contacts. Once it’s open, click on “Contacts” in the upper left-hand corner of the screen. Click on “Preferences.” After you do that, click on “vCard.” Then untick the box entitled, “Enable private me card.” After you do that, redo your card and save it. Click on your new card in Contacts, click on the “Card” menu in the menubar, and then click “Make this my card.” I hope this helps!

I had the same problem....I had another person's name as my card even though I had reset it. When I pushed on my card it showed my data underneath the cover of someone else wrong. I scrolled down a bit and saw a suggestion to delete the Facebook app and restart the phone. For some stupid/unknown reason, that worked...

Facebook.

My wife would populate as me, my son would become my daughter according to Siri, my iPad would become my wife's iPad, some of my VIP contacts that are also on Facebook wouldn't text via Siri but I'd get a message that either contact has. I available mobile numbers (when they clearly have an iPhone), or I'd get "here's the phone numbers for so-and-so" then list an iPhone and an email for this person. Stupid.

Anyway, I nuked my Facebook & Messenger apps and magically, I am me again. I had to delete and add again those contacts that didn't work but all is ok so far now. I am going to add Facebook back in but set the permissions to. It sync with contacts. I believe that's where the problem lies.

I went to my info and put in a new account for myself however, it reverts back to the one that has both my information and the other "Susan"'s information in it - it thinks that is me so I can't delete her email address from it and just leave my own and I can't delete her facebook messenger connection - same problem - there is no edit function for either of those things - so it continues to call me by the wrong name and links me to her - I can't delete it - it doesn't even have a delete option at the bottom of the page - how in the world can I get it off of my phone and then enter myself back in with my picture and my name and ONLY my contact information?

I've already tried making another contact for myself - which will save in my "contacts" but my phone identity is still the wrong person with the wrong name and picture. I did edit the picture so it isn't her picture anymore but it reverts to her name even when I change it to mine - I took out her address, phone number, name but I can't remove her email address or her link to facebook - it is eternally linked to mine and that is extremely troubling to me! Also I hate having my phone think I'm her!!

I can't delete all contacts! I can't even delete that wrong one, which I want to delete - there is no delete option at the bottom of the page. I do think if I could delete it and then restart my phone it might be fixed but I have a feeling restarting my phone without deleting it is not going to help but I may try it anyway.

Someone said I have to temporarily delete my FB app from my phone in order to have the ability to remove the link to the other Susan's FB messenger and her email address - although I don't know how that will free up the email address - as it is neither has a delete or change option - it is impossible to remove them - mine are on there, but so are hers! I need to get all links to her off of my card info. How do I delete the facebook app? I know how to reinstall it, but don't know how to delete it. - also how do I see if anyone answers this?

The solution listed earlier works. Just create anew

Contact. (Your name) and info. Go to controls, select the new contact you created. Now tap the phone icon, then the contact button. It should take you to your contacts and your name should appear there.

Don't bother, just delete that card.
