JibberJobber Blog If you want to delete ALL of the records from an import, check out this blog post:  How To: Delete multiple records that you had imported Every once in a while someone asks how to delete their contacts.   Usually this is because they did an import and didnt clean up the data before they imported.   Or because they got on one of our user webinars and learned they could have tagged, ranked, etc. their contacts all at once BEFORE the import. Whatever the reason, it is pretty easy to delete a bunch of records at once. HOWEVER, IF YOU DELETE STUFF FROM YOUR ACCOUNT WE CANNOT GET IT BACK. No data recovery is available so be sure you want to delete it before you delete. STEP ONE:  Go to the List Panel where you want to delete multiple records.   Usually this will be Contacts or Companies. (note that clicking where either arrow points will open the List Panel). STEP TWO:  Click on Manage Columns ICON so you can see more records. STEP THREE:  Change the number of Rows per Page to 255, which is the most you can see per page on a List Panel. Click Save changes to go back to the List Panel with a lot more records showing. STEP FOUR: Click the checkbox in the top left of the List Panel, which checks (or unchecks) the checkbox for every record on that page. STEP FIVE:  Scroll to the very bottom of the List Panel and click on the DELETE icon.  WARNING: THIS WILL DELETE ALL RECORDS THAT HAVE A CHECK MARK IN THE BOX!! Thats it. you might have to do step four and five a few times, if you have more records than the 255 limit you can see per page. If you want to delete by a certain criteria (date of mass import, or tags, location, etc.), order your data differently. For example, I have my List Panels show my data by the date I entered them (Date Created).   If you sort by Date Created youll group all records by the date they are created. You can filter your search based on keywords which is very cool.   Read this post for more on filtering your search. JibberJobber Blog Im having too much fun with this video software and it is as unscripted and unplugged as it gets! Here are the next two that you might want to check out: Get Contact List I figure you shouldnt be at your computer all day long even social networkers need to get away and meet people face-to-face! So here is a way that you can print out the people that you have as contacts, using printer inks whether they are company and/or network, by tag, category, etc. This is how you export to a csv or vcard file to allow you to send to other programs (like Outlook, LinkedIn, Plaxo, etc.) it kind of looks scary but hopefully this tuturial will help you see how easy it really is. Note this is one of the premium features, definitely worth the upgrade, dont you think? The List Panel defined I refer to a thing called the List Panel, which is like a spreadsheet interface + web interface. This short video shows what the List Panel is (there is a List Panel in various places) and what the different things mean. This is a must see video to help you get the best out of the JibberJobber interface, at least with regard to this feature. Let me know if the videos are problematic for you, otherwise Ill keep cranking them out!
