Unable to delete old addresses under existing contact. I have even follow suggest steps to delete one address and click done before deleting the next address. In first looks like those steps work however after adding a new address I have noticed all old addresses were re-added as well.

Hello there sylwia229,



We understand you're having some issues removing address fields under this specific contact. Let's take a closer look as we do our best to provide some additional insight.


To get started, does the same thing happen with any other contacts at all? The reason we ask is if this only happens with a single contact, we'd suggest copying the important contact info to a note, and then deleting the entire contact completely. Then you can create a new contact while adding back just the info you want.


Manage and delete contacts on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


In the meantime, if the same thing happens with multiple contacts, does they all sync with the same kind of account, or are they just locally saved to the device?



We hope this helps get you pointed in the right direction.


Take care.
