Why are my contacts showing numbers and not names

Why are my contacts showing numbers and not names?

When you added your contact details in the contact app did you fill in the fields correctly.  For example in contacts where it says "first" did you enter a number instead of a name?

  • I have 100's of CDs that I have downloaded to my itunes library and they are in the library playable but they do not show up in the C drive under the iTunes Music folder under users.  Why are they in the libary and not in the itunes music folder. Win 7 OS

    I have 100's of CDs that I have downloaded to my itunes library and they are in the library playable but they do not show up in the C drive under the iTunes Music folder under users.  Why are they in the libary and not in the itunes music folder. Win 7 OS.  When I look in the library under the get info screen it says they are in the folder itunes music, under the c: drive but when I actually go to that folder to look for them they are not there....HELP!

    Hello RumDog,
    I think this article will help you find the media in your library.
    Where are my iTunes files located?

    Discovering and changing the iTunes Media folder location
    Note: You would usually only change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer. See this article for specific steps on how to accomplish this. Also, see this article if you want to know how to move your music to a new computer.
    Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences.
    Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
    Click the Advanced pane. iTunes displays the location of your iTunes Media folder.
    You can then:
    Note where your media folder is, such as for backing up your media.
    Use the Reset button to reset it's location to the default (which is the iTunes folder).
    Click the Change button to select a folder for a new location. Once you change this location:
    If you make a new or alternate iTunes library, the new location will be used by that library.
    Existing files will not be moved unless you choose File > Library > Organize library and choose the option to "Consolidate files."

    why are 2 of my Numbers documents not loading from icloud They appear in faded grey and I can't open them ? How do I recover them ?

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

  • Why is my keyboard typing numbers and not letters

    There a a few keys on my Thinkpad that type numbers and not letters. They are located on the right hand side. This just started for some reason. I'm sure there is a keystroke that must have been entered by mistake. Any thoughts ?

    And if that doesn't seem to do the trick, try Shift+ScrLk.

  • Why are my contacts from my iPhone not syncing?

    I'm entering new contacts in my iPhone, and after syncing, those new contacts are not in my address book on my Mac.

    I recommend storing your contacts in iCloud and using iCloud contacts both on your Mac and your iPhone.

  • Why Are Styles Relative to Components and Not Skins?

    I am trying to make a skin for a Button that consists of nothing more than an image. I want to make a generic skin that I can reuse and just have a style for the source of the image. The problem, however, is that the [Style] metadata tags exist on the Button component and not on the skin. Thus, since Button does not have a "source" style property defined, I cannot do something like this:
    <s:Button skinClass="{ImageButtonSkin}" source="@Embed('/assets/images/gripper.png')" />
    Since there is no "source" style for button this results in a compile error. It seems to me like this shouldn't be an issue. Since all of the presentation is inside of the skin, shouldn't the styles be defined on the skin instead of the component? If the reason for not doing this is backwards compatibility related, then it seems like the compiler could just pull from both places.
    As it stands, it is very cumbersome to have to create an entire subclass of Skin just to change the source of an image. Alternatively, I could subclass button to have the style property declared, but that seems very inelegant. Thoughts?

    Good to know what I am doing is correct. I think the inline "style" attribute you proposed seems the most appealing, if not only for its congruency with xhtml.
    Alternatively, since really what styles boil down to are just methods for parameterizing skins, it could be cool if there was something like the following:
    <s:Button>
         <s:skin>
              <local:ImageButtonSkin source="@Embed(...);" />
         </s:skin>
    </s:Button>
    Or maybe have the have the skin style attributes be defined in their own namespace, e.g.:
    <s:Button  myskin:source="@Embed(...);" />
    That way the compiler wouldn't have to make 2 passes to guess at what skin is applied to the component, it would just have to lookup the skin implementation corresponding to the namespace.
    Just randomly brainstorming, thanks for your response.

  • Why are my contacts showing up in iCloud?!

    I have intentionally disabled the syncing of Contacts on both my Mac and my iPad. In fact, I removed everything from my Address Book before moving my MobileMe account to iCloud so that my contacts would not be automatically uploaded during the initial setup process. Now, to my surprise, I find that all my contacts have been uploaded to iCloud anyway! How did this happen, and how can I prevent it from happening again! I keep sensitive information in my Address Book and do not want that information stored on the internet.
    Thanks!

    Open System Preferences > ICloud
    Make sure Contacts is deselected.

    Only you can access your Contacts / Address Book data using your Apple ID and password which is encrypted.

  • Why are my slide shows disappearing and drop down menus not working?

    I have a huge problem with clients currently waiting on a response from us.
    We have created a website with MUSE, we have implemented slideshows and drop down menus which work fine when you preview them.
    HOWEVER, once we put an editor in place for the client to then input their content onto the website, all of the slideshows disappear and the drop down menus no longer work!?
    What do I do to rectify this problem??
    Thanks Guys

    This actually did work... But, I have figured out that the issue is really in IE7... and for whatever reason the code was making IE8 go into compatability mode (essentially using IE7).     

  • Why are the contacts on my MAC not shown in the icloud contacts?

  • Why are my slides hanging up, and not moving forward?

    My latest project in Captivate 4 doesn’t need graded quizzes, so when my quiz slides hung up after publishing, I deleted them and used a regular slide with roll overs to give feedback on “review” question. But the slides taking the place of deleted quiz slides are now hanging up too! It just doesn’t make sense and must be fixed before the project can continue.
    The buttons have the usual programming, like, rest of slide and “continue.” Anything else I can do? I’ve also had issues with the “click anywhere to continue” to move a quiz slide along. It will only move (that is, if it isn’t hanging up) inside the feedback box.
    And I have removed and re-loaded and added the patch to Captivate three times already.  I always do it when the program takes a long  time to close, and then, a long time to load and that usually works. And it does this on two different computers of mine. As far as I know, it's not a memory issue because it is only on these slides. But this hanging up is so weird, because if I click the Back button, sometimes it moves forward, and if that doesn't work, then clicking Back and Next moves it forward.
    So the main question is, why won't the Next button move the project to the next slide?
    Secondary question: why can't I "click anywhere to continue" because only clicking inside the feedback box works? (And because that was happening, I deleted the file and now the replacement blank or copied slide hangs up too.)
    Thanking you in advance.
    Phyllis K. Day

    I am having this same problem.  When I publish my slides to a web server the quiz exhibits the behavior where you have to actually click inside the Feedback caption to move to next action.  It is supposed to work by clicking anywhere on the slide. 
    Wondering if you ever found out what was causing this?? 
    Looks like I cannot move forward on this project except by not using Captivate.  Or somehow code up my own quiz questions.  ugh.

  • Why are my photoshop files distorted and not the tifs?

    Hi,
    I've been importing tifs and photoshop files into my FCE project, and here's my problem. When I view the .psd file in my canvas viewer the still is squeezed and does not fill the entire frame with white background above and below the still. I then import the same file but resaved as a tif and it appears in the canvas frame in the correct aspect ratio. What is going on? (The image properties are 1920x1080 aspect ratio: square) This happens with all the .psd files that are imported into my FCE project. All imported tifs appear correctly.
    Other info: I have started with a baseline photoshop template that is 1920x1080, aspect ratio: square. I saved the images either as a .psd file with one layer or tif with one layer. The reason for the .psd file is that I need to have some areas of transparency in my FCE project (I have overlays). Which leads to another question: If I need transparency within the still in FCE, can I save the file as a tif with "save transparency" box ticked on?
    Thanks for any info!

    when saving as a png should interlaced be set to none?
    Also regarding the tif images...I had been saving them, as a copy and under tiff options:
    image compression: none
    pixel order: interleaved
    layer compression: discard layers and save a copy
    I assumed that this tiff file would be one layer. Am I incorrect?
    And I did a test save with "save transparency" ticked on and imported the image into FCE. It appears that the transparency is there when I view the still in the canvas window. Can I do it this way? Are there disadvantages/advantages to using png files rather than tiffs?
    Thanks!

  • Why are these files showing? and how do i get rid/hide them?

    can anyone tell me a fix to hide these greyed/faded out files and folders? they are littered around EVERYWHERE on my mac, even in my external hard drive. Also, why is there a file called .DS_Store on my desktop? i've tried putting it in the trash and emptying it but it just appears again! thanks in advance.

    1. Open the AppleScript Editor in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and run the following:
    tell application "Finder" to quit
    if (do shell script "defaults read com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles") is "1" then
    do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 0"
    else
    do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 1"
    end if
    delay 2
    tell application "Finder" to run
    If you change your mind later, run the script again.
    2. To store the metadata associated with items on the desktop.
