Contacts sort by company

Is there a update to allow the contacts list to sort by company??

not that i'm aware of, but you could set up a company as a "group."

  • Contacts Display and Sort by Company Name

    I have over 1000 contacts in Outlook which synced wonderfully with my new iPhone.
    Alas, I need to lookup and sort by Company Name. This is a VERY standard method for contacts. The options presented by iphone are first and last name, sigh and tech support had no suggestions and the helpful tech support genttleman could find no 3rd party applications which could help.
    Help!
    I relly like my iPhone, but I need to be able to look up contacts and notes by company.
    Thanks

    I have noticed something useful when entering contacts directly into my iPhone. When entering a contact that I want shown in the list by the company name, I enter the company name first (without entering the "first name" and "last name") and save it. If you do it that way, the little square where the photo would be will change from the blank head to some buildings, and the contact will be listed by the company name. You can then go back and edit to add a first and last name and it will stay listed by company name.
    However, if you enter the last name, first name, and company name all at the same time it will list the entry by the "last name" instead of by the company.
    For example, if I want my son's doctor's office to display as "Arizona Pediatrics" instead of "Dr. John Smith" in the contact list, I would enter the Arizona Pediatrics first, save, and then go back in and add the Dr. John Smith in the last name, first name fields.
    I need to check the manual to see if this is detailed, as I stumbled on it accidentaly, but it's pretty useful.

  • IOS changes contact from sorted by company to first name when edit is hit

    Can anyone tell me how to stop iOS from changing to sort by name when edit is hit? 
    Scenario:  Contact has first name, last name and company.  In OSX I hit edit and check the company box.  The contact now sorts by company name.  I then go into iOS to that same contact and hit edit and then done.  The contact now sorts by name and there is no way to undo this that I can find in iOS.  There is no company check box and iOS defaults to sort by name automatically.  Which means that any information I edit on my iphone or ipad will get miscatagorized by simply tapping the edit key. 
    Help!!!

    I would ask, why are you going into the same contact in iOS if you have already edited it in OS X? But then, I digress.
    True, there is only two settings for sorting contacts in iOS, Last Name or First name. The same as display. When you have a name and Company, it will only sort by name.
    You can provide feedback to Apple if you would like to see this feature change by going to www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link.

  • Better Contacts Manager app, sort by company?

    I am a sole proprietor (not needing a shared database) looking for a basic Contacts Manager app (for OSX primarily) that allows contacts to be organized by company. Also, for new contacts at any organization to be added without having to manually key in all common data for each new contact. (both the preceding are not features offered in current Apple Contacts) The ability to generate a CSV database is important.
    Apple Contacts requires that all fields for new contacts be entered manually, no simple copy/paste feature for adding new contacts within the same company. Yes, I have found awkward work-arounds that don't really work. Most personal contact manager apps seem to be written for IOS and those for OSX are often complex & expensive (many require a monthly subscription). Many apps listed on review sites are no longer developed, or still in beta.
    The desired features above would seem to be a no-brainer, but I have spent hours fruitlessly seeking a simple workable solution.
    thanks in advance

    Contacts will sort by company if the Company checkbox is checked in the card.
    To add multiple contacts to the same company I just duplicate a card from the company and edit the name, telephone number and email as needed.
    To get just the companies to display create a Group, Businesses or Companies, and add all company cards to it.  Click on the group and you have only the cards you want.

  • How can i sort contacts according to company name on my iPhone

    how can i sort contacts according to company name on my iPhone

    That is not a sorting option in the built in app. There are other apps in the App Store that can access your contact information. Perhaps there is one that will let you do that.

  • N97 mini - Contact Sort Company, Name

    Hello
    my  N97 mini is for Business use and  I am using Mail for Exchange. Everything works perfect.
    I synchronize Mails, Contacts, dates and tasks  with Exchange.
    In Exchange-Contacts are, along with other contact details, for me the important fields Name and Company.
    When I synchronize, these fields are copied correct to the N97 mini .
    In N97 mini i want to display Contacts in alphabetic order, using the fields Company, Name
    I cant find settings to realize this
    Can anybody help ?
    Thanks

    I find this part of my iPhone completely weird.
    With my Treo running Agendus I could see all my Contacts by their company name and the contacts name alongside. If I did a search by name or company got a result.
    However with 4000 contacts in my AB/iPhone searching for people by their names is difficult. For instance, living in Wales, where Jones, Jenkins, Evans, Davies etc are very common names I could have 20 people called David Jones but only 1 that works for ACME plumbing.
    Also I may want to speak to three people from Acme Plumbing, but I can't remember their surname.
    At the moment my solution to this is to create Groups in AB and split my contacts amongst these i.e zip codes, company sector etc. Also I use the App ABContacts which allows you to see the Contact Name under the Company name or vice versa.
    This is the one area where I really do miss my Palm Treo/Agendus

  • Multiple contacts in one company?

    Hi all, a quick question on something that's always bugged me. If I enter contact info for multiple employees at the same company, I can never see who those employees are when scrolling through my contact list.
    For instance, I if enter the contact info for 4 people at a company called "Floserve", when scrolling through my contacts later on, all I see is 4 duplicate entrees called "Floserve". I have to select them all individually to get the iPhone to scroll to the next field where I can see each employee's name. This is a real pain with 20+ people I need to contact at one company. Is there anyway I can flag people as working at the same company, but have my contacts sorted by their names, and not the duplicated company name?

    The way I handle this issue is as one poster already suggested, plus groups. First, the "company" checkbox is for companies, not really people, so it should only be used for the company's entry, not the people associated with it. You can still put the company info in each of the contacts, right where it says "company" when you edit the contact, but don't check the company checkbox.
    Next, create a group for each company that has several people, and that you want to have such a group. Drag those contacts into that group. (I use smart groups to collect them: just set a condition whereby the "company" is the company's name, then drag the resulting smart groups contacts into the real group you named after the company). Now when you sync, if you're showing "All Contacts", the people will appear in their alphabetical place, and if you just want to see those who are at that company, just tap "Groups" in the upper left, and tap the group you created for that company. The list will then populate with only those who are in that company. So I have several groups like that, one for each company that has more than just a couple of names that I want to be able to get to by company.

  • Address Book - Create multiple contacts at one company?

    I am using Address Book v 4.0.4 and I want to be able to create multiple contacts at one company without having to reenter the Company, Tel. and Address information each time.
    Is there a way to duplicate an address, say the basic company address, to make the process of entering multiple people at one company any faster?
    Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks, Michel
    MBP Laptop & G5 Tower   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   Address Book v 4.0.4

    I talked to Apple today and here is how you create multiple contacts at one address, company etc. without having to reenter everything.
    1) In Address Book, highlight a contact in the name list
    2) Go to the Edit Menu & COPY
    3) Go back to the Edit Menu & PASTE
    4) Make changes to the new 'duplicated' contact
    Seems easy if you know how to do it.

    As to your issue, Apple does not and never has made a wristwatch as such. The only thing close to a watch that they have made was the 6th-generation iPod nano:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1353#iPod_Nano_6G
    which has a clock feature and which some people have worn as a wristwatch. Is that what you mean?

  • E66: Configuring contact sort order when composing...

    Dear friends,
    This is probably a silly issue but still, I can't find a solution... I have upgraded my aging Nokia E66 RM-343 to 400.21.013 (this version was suggested by the Nokia Suite and it keeps telling me that this is the latest version). After the upgrade and restoring the phone settings, I am having problems with the contacts sort order when choosing recipients for an SMS message.
    I have configured the contact list for the "Last Name First Name" display order, and when making a voice call, the sort order is correct - the contacts are sorted by the last name. However, when writing an SMS message and choosing the recipients, the contact list is displayed in the "Last Name, First Name" mode but it is sorted by the first name which is extremely confusing and inconvenient.
    I just do not seem to be able to find where the sort order for the contact list as displayed when composing an SMS message can be configured. Anyone have any suggestion/hint? Thank you very much in forward!
    Best regards,
    Peter

    Unfortunately, the 6230i seems to have only one field for the contact name, so it has no way of knowing what is what. I guess the only thing you can do is reinput all the names manually.

  • Z10 Call Display from Contact - Not Showing Company Info

    From the previous versions of Blackberry's OS, whenever I would receive a phone call from a contact in my phone, the name of the Contact and their Company (as I entered it) would show up on the screen. Now, it only shows the name and then has the number below. I meet a lot of people and the Company reference helped me understand who was calling and for what. Is there a way to have it so when someone calls, the name, company and phone number as in BB7. 

    This feature is an absolute must. Driving me crazy not seeking the company name of callers. I have 17 Tony's and now have no idea who is calling. This needs a fix ASAP!

    Howdy.  I keep getting a message stating that my apple ID has been disabled.  I recently contacted my CC company, AMEX, for several fradulent iTune charges, which is probably where the problem first originated.  How can I resolve this issue?

    I had to dispute several unauthorized charges to itunes. My apple id was disabled after that. I followed jarnoldus's (older post) advice and it worked. Im duplicating his entry here with a few modifications. I hope this works for you.
    1. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com
    2. Choose your product (mine was ipad)
    3. Click the "iTunes, App Store or iBooks" icon
    4. Click "Apple ID account security"
    5. Type in "apple id has been disabled"
    6. Choose your country (mine was US)
    7. Choose the "talk to apple support now" option
    8. Provide the info they request (name, email, phone number)
    9. They will call you right away.
    Explain your apple id has been disabled. The rep will connect you to an iTunes rep. He/she will look up your account. You will be required to answer your 3 security questions. You MUST get a minimum of 2 correct. If you succeed they will enable your id. Good luck!
