Searching Contacts

You can search first, last, and company names in your contacts on iPad. If you have a Microsoft Exchange account on iPad, you may also be able to search your enterprise Global Address List (GAL) for contacts in your organization. If you have an LDAP account on iPad, you can search contacts on your organization’s LDAP server. If you have a CardDAV account, you can search contacts synced to iPad, or searchable contacts on a supported CardDAV server.

When you enter search information, contacts with matching information appear as you type.

Search contacts: In Contacts, tap the search field at the top of the screen and enter a first, last, or company name. To scroll quickly to the top of the list, tap the status bar.

Search a GAL: Tap Groups, tap the Exchange server name, then enter a first, last, or company name.

You can’t edit GAL contacts or save them to iPad.

Search an LDAP server: Tap Groups, tap the LDAP server name, then enter a first, last, or company name.

You can’t edit LDAP contacts or save them to iPad.

Search a CardDAV server: Tap Groups, tap the searchable CardDAV group at the bottom of the list, then enter your search.
