Help on transfering Contacts to Razr

I have a Razr Maxx with Jellybean.  My problem is I've transfered my computer contacts to my Razr, several hundred, and all went well, but being computer contacts I hadn't put phone numbers with many of them.  I've tried to go into my Razr and edit the numbers into the contacts and it won't let me do it.  Do I have to edit them on the computer and re-synchronize the two?

Are you saying that when you go to:  People > "person" > Menu (3 dots) > Edit > Add another field (scroll to bottom), Phone is not an option?

  It is probably treating them the same as Google contacts, or Facebook contacts. My suggestion would be to create a phone contact with just the phone number, and then "Link or Join" them together. I do that all the time with mine.

Hi Jon37!

I've done the same thing before and because they are contacts not recognized by the devices system, the edit option is limited or null. Like @Droid Usrr recommended, you can add the phone contact, then link the two so you only have one contact for each person! Keep us posted if you need additional assistance.

Thanks,
