Contacts issue - can't see all info and edit some contacts

I switched from iPhone to Android (Samsung Galaxy S5) and in some case it won't let me see all details (like all phone numbers etc) and won't let me edit also.
Is there a good workaround or do I have to go through all my contacts, write down details on paper, and redo them?!

Thanks

Re: Contacts issue - can't see all info and edit some contacts

If they're not all Google contacts (Type, at the top when you edit), Menu/Import/Export. Export the contacts. Delete all your contacts. Sync contacts. Import the contacts from the file you exported - and when asked, import them to your Google account. Sync them again.

Whether they were all Google contacts or not before, now go to Google Contacts and delete or edit what you like. Next time the phone syncs, you'll have the same data on the phone. (In the future, enter all contacts as Google contacts to save yourself the trouble of converting them.)
