A terminal apparatus provides shared profile information that is selectively received from a server based on a relationship between a first user and a second user, according to whether information of the second user is stored in the terminal apparatus of the first user as local profile information and information of the first user is stored in the terminal apparatus of the second user as the local profile information. Accordingly, a phonebook service for desired profile information is provided only for users in a buddy relationship sharing contact information with each other.
