Deleting contacts

themundy · 09-08-2010, 06:50 PM

I have an iPhone, so I have to use the PCMCIA slot to load contacts. If I update my contacts, it makes duplicate copies of the old. Is there a way to delete all of your contacts at once? Deleting one by one is a major pain.

The only way to delete all your contacts is to reset the system. When you do that you loose all your settings. One by one is the only way.

When you reset your system you also lose all music that you've added to the hard drive

The C Class has an option to delete the phonebook without resetting the whole system. It's called "Delete External Data" and kind of sounds like you're going to lose everything but really you only lose the phonebook, which is what you want.

Does the GLK not have that option in the Bluetooth menu?

It also resets your radio presets.

Apparently, Steve Jobs does NOT drive a Mercedes; at least, not a GLK...

Actually, he does:

Surprising, as I would have bet on him being a Prius guy.

Probably had someone else take care of the iPhone setup, tho...

Go Steve!

Cool. Wasn't calling you out on it, was just trying to share what he does drive.
