Apple ME178LL/A, MD058LL/A, MC544LL/A manual Contacts

The source accounts of a unified contact appear at the bottom of the screen, under Linked Cards.

View contact information for a source account: Tap one of the source accounts.

Unlink a contact: Tap Edit, tap , then tap Unlink.

Link a contact: Tap Edit, then tap and choose a contact.

If you link a new contact to a unified contact with a different first or last name, the new name is added to the name field after a comma. For example, if you link an additional contact named Elizabeth to a unified contact for Betty, the first name field shows “Betty, Elizabeth.”

Linked contacts are not merged. Unless you edit a unified contact, the separate contacts in the source accounts remain separate and unchanged. If you change information in a unified contact, the changes are copied to each source account in which that information already exists. If you add information to a unified contact, that information is added to every source account.

Linked contact information also appears at the bottom of an individual contact’s Info screen when it’s viewed from a specific account (as opposed to the All Contacts list), which lets you see the Unified Info screen and each of the other linked contacts.
