Can't add/delete/edit contacts

Hi

Hope I'm not being really stupid and missing something obvious but I don't seem to be add,delete or edit my contacts. The button that was there on my 3GS is missing. Can someone shed any light on this please as I'm really confused. Thanks.

What the...?

Are you accessing Contacts via the "Contacts" app?

And does it say "All Contacts" at the top?

That image hasn't loaded...

Not sure what would be causing this. Bizarre.

Nothing seems to work as it should. The image is showing on my laptop.

I backed up my contacts from old phone to itunes on PC but for some reason they didn't transfer to my new phone, luckily I was able to recover them from itunes on my laptop.

walker26, I would back up to iCloud and then completely restore your iPhone to factory settings.

You could then restore your phone from iCloud and see if anything changes.

Bit of a ball ache but sounds like it might be corrupted some how.

I had a feeling it might come down to that. Thanks for your help, I'll give it a go and report on the outcome.
