How can a delete a duplicate directory from contact? I have two identical iCloud directories that the system generated.
MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
Duplicate cards? Resolve them after choosing this:
I'm not sure what you mean by "two identical iCloud directories".
The folders or directories on the lefthand side of my Contacts looks like this:
All Contacts
icloud
All icloud
Bob's Birthday list
SEMTW 2014
icloud
All icloud
Bob's Birthday list
SEMTW 2014
How do I get rid of the duplicate folder?
I would start with a hard restart... Press the Home button and Sleep/Wake buttons together for 6-10 seconds until you see the Apple logo.
Then if that does not resolve it, try Settings > General > Rest . Reset All Settings. This will remove but not delete any custom photos on your home screen, remove your wifi password and any "remember me's" you may have used in Safari.
Log in to iCloud on its website: https://www.icloud.com/#contacts. Determine if all Contacts are present and what you expect.
Then: back up your Contacts by choosing All Contacts, then File > Export > Contacts Archive... Choose a convenient location for the archive.
Then, select the redundant iCloud entry and press the Delete key. Does that work?
Are you still using OS X 10.7 "Lion"?
