Recent Calls and Origin City (Tip)

Did you know?
In the recent calls list, if a number is not in your contact list, when you tap the blue arrow, under the number, the city of the area code/prefix shows up below the number!
Pretty neat!

Hey... That IS cool! Thanks for the info!

  • Turn off "Recent Calls" and "History"

    There is a real need for Skype to allow a user privacy by TURNING OFF the recording of recent calls and history.  
    I am aware that History can be "disabled" in Skype Preferences -- and that one can ERASE the list of recent calls with Conversations > Clear Recent.  But (i) the second action actually moves the Recent Calls to the History -- even if History is disabled!  And (ii) there does not seem to be anyway to STOP new calls from being added to the "Recent" list.  
    I do not see any way to TURN OFF the recording of calls with the current Skype, but I would be happy to be corrected.  Save that, I would be please if this would be considered as an update to future versions of Skype -- it would be trivial to add "do not list recent calls" to Preferences.

    FYI, that won't work. AirPlane disables all radio communications.
    The best way to do this is to divert all calls.
    Go to Settings
    Phone
    call forwarding and switch to O
    Type in your carriers default voicemail number. Because it is the default number for voicemail is an exception in their list you won't be charged for the diversion.
    remember to switch this off when you get back.
    Then go to messages turn off send as SMS and MMS.
    That should avoid most of the charges. Its inevitable that you'll get some but hopefully if you're careful it will be minimal.
    Have you thought of using a local sim while you're there, you're iMessage will still work and your home SIM and account will be inactive so you won't get any unforseen chardges?
    Good luck

  • How do I retrieve my recent calls and recent text messages after I restored the settings

    How do I retrieve my recent call log and recent text messages after I had to restore the settings?

    If they were in your most recent back up and you restore your phone to that back up, you'll get them back. If they're not in the back up, there's no way to get them back.

  • New feature of ios8 recent calls and message contacts do not show up across top pf screen.  What should I do?

    Iphone 5s update ios8 new feature is recent contacts from texts and calls "multitasking"  show up in circle at top pf home screen.  I don not have this feature.  Why? what should I do? There is limited information on the ios8 features on web site.  Can anyone help?  I have tried checking my settings for problems.  Can't find similar problems on support forum.  What is next?

    Thanks for your quick help. I DID try this.  Your English translation was fine.  I found it. I changed it.  But, so far, nothing has changes on my screen. Any further suggestions? I wondered if I should try to update the ios8 again.  What do you think?  I have a terrible time in settings with all aspects.  I could easily have something else turned off or on mistakenly.

    HELP!!

        Hello emilydoanne,
    Oh No! I'm extremely sorry to learn that you're having issues with your wireless device. I understand the importance of having consistent access to your device at all times. I want to make sure we work on a resolution right away. I do appreciate you completing a hard reset on the device. When this process was completed, how did you do this? Have you plugged your device into iTunes to process a full factory restore? Have you taken your device into a local Apple or VZW store for a hands on evaluation? Please keep us posted, thanks!

  • How get recent call back (because of I change password form other device)

    I use iphone 5 and ipad2
    all devices use same apple id
    I change apple id(password) on ipad
    my recent calls in iphone are lost      but  i cant remember one important number
    How get recent call back ?  i sign in my apple id on my iphone too but it not work.

    If you have previously employed Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes - Apple  Support, then restoring using iTunes should do the trick.
    From the above article (emphasis is mine):
    What iTunes backs up
    SNIP
    Contacts* and Contact Favorites. (You should regularly sync your contacts to a computer or cloud service, such as iCloud.)
    SNIP
    *Your contacts are part of the backup to preserve recent calls and favorites lists. To avoid any potential contact data loss, back up your contacts to a supported personal information manager (PIM) or another cloud-based service (such as Gmail or Microsoft Exchange). You can also make a copy of contacts that are in iCloud. Learn about backups in iCloud.

  • Leave the group call * recent call

    Dear all,
    some of my co*workers made a group and added me in this list. i left this group call. when i sign in skype from another computer i saw that i have a recent call unread message. This group call seems to be unread. I open it but don't see anything. I can not delete it from recent calls and it shows all the time on my tab that there is 1 message unread. it is annoying. Please someone help me to fix this problem. 
    P.S. ın recent calls tab i righ click on the mouse on this group call, there is no option to delete it. There is only option to add these people in my contact list and the conversation...
    Help help help...

    is there some way to tell who is the host?
    Hello and welcome to the Skype Community.
    The person hosting a group call is the one who called the group to start the meeting.
    TIME ZONE - US EASTERN. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
    I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac
    If my advice helped to fix your issue please mark it as a solution to help others.

My music was erased, therefore, I am trying to sync all of the music from my computer into the iPhone, but it says that I need to use the original computer/itunes in order to sync, but it is the same computer and iTunes account. The error reads: The iPhone, "Name" is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and a sync with this iTunes library?

    Are the contact details in your contacts app, the phone app uses the contact app to put names against telephone numbers.

    Hello guys I have a question,or rather a problem. how can I detach yourself iPhone operator Verizon USA? I mean as to call and what to say? I live in Ukraine, and the opportunity came up for to buy cheap 4S 16GB. but on Verizon. when I insert the original SIM card Verizon and I try to activate, says: (error occurred activation, if this problem happen again please call at +1................). this is the hour to use it through the R-SIM 9 pro. everything works нормальнои calls and Internet and SMS, but I want to officially unlock. beforehand thank you

    Well, you managed to find this support forum didn't you and you have an internet connection don't you?  Then if you have all these things, go and find the number by going to the Verizon website and it should not be hard to find the number.
    As for speaking English, this is not really our problem and it is surely something that you should have thought about before buying the phone in the first place.
    You also need to know that Verizon in the US is a cdma operator and if you purchased an iPhone 4s, then it should not be locked.  The Verizon 4s comes with a sim card tray that should be unlocked out of the box for use internatinoally on gsm networks, so all you should need to do is open the sim card tray and insert a sim card and you should pick up the local gsm network.
    A cdma phone does not actually use a sim card, so there would be no original sim card with the phone because when it is used in the US it will pick up the Verizon cdma network without a sim card.  The sim card is only for use on a gsm network which will not work in the US, but is designed to work outside the US.  Open the sim card tray and insert your own local sim card and the phone should work and should not be locked.
    Other than this, if you purchased the phone in the first place, it is the responsibility of the previous owner to cancel the Verizon contract.  This is nothing to do with you, so contact the seller and ask them.
    Other wise, go to the Verizon website and look up the number and call them.  As they are the phone company, ultimately, they are the only ones who can help you.

  • I upgraded to a 4g and the most recent backup (today) is not showing up.  I went ahead and backed up and found that my texts, phone calls and messages did not backup.

    I upgraded to a 4g and the most recent backup (today) is not showing up.  The most recent backup that showed was 3/3/12.  I went ahead and backed up to that date and found that my texts, phone calls and messages are the part that did not backup. 
    Can anyone tell me 1) why my most recent backup did not show in ITunes, 2) why I could not backup using the Cloud (I tried this way first), 3) how I can get all the phone calls, messages and texts from 3/3/12 until today?  Please help if you can...thanks!

  • My Gf has my iphone. How can I see recent messages and calls from another device?

    My Gf has my iphone. How can I see recent messages and calls from another device?

    Depending on your carrier, you may be able to see recent calls by logging into your account on the carrier's web site, if they offer such a feature, though incoming calls being shown is not usual. There will, as diesel said, be no way to see messages already received, either SMS/MMS or iMessages, without having the phone.
    Regards.
