The blank spaces are either contacts that have nothing in them or contacts that have no name in the Full Name box....if you double click in that blank space, see what opens...if it's a blank contact, you can just highlight that blank space in the right window and hit your delete key....if it's a contact without a name, add a name.

When I open contacts there are no contacts (lots of blank spaces where contacts could be placed. However, if I click on the right side of the screen where the tabs are (e.g., 123, a, b, etc.) I find my contacts. How do I eliminate the the blank spaces?
