Why can't I add a new contact from the phone app?

I am trying to add a new contact from a call I got this am.  I get to the contact screen but I can add anything - ie no keyboard pops up to type anything in.  I also can not use the copy function to copy the number into the contacts app. 
This is TERRIBLE!!  As a person who is on the phone for a living, I need to capture numbers as I get those calls!!
Has anyone found a solution to this problem with IOS 7?
I will probably go to the genius bar this afternoon....
Thanks

Try resetting your phone:
Hold the home button + the lock button for about 10-12 seconds until the Apple logo appears.  You will not lose any data or current settings.

  • WHY CAN"T I ADD ANYTHING BUT APPZ FROM THE APPS STORE TO ITUNES

    I'm starting to get ****** about this one ....I CANNOT ADD MUSIC MOVIES OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF FILE To Itunes...unless its from the Itunes Store ....YES I CHECK AND RESET THE PERMISSIONS ....YES I RAN DISK UTILITY AND REPAIRED THE VOLUME ....AND YES I HAVE TRIED ALLL THE WAYS OF ADDING THE FILES... It crapped out in the middle of adding some music to the libary....Since then I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO ADD ANYTHING THAT DOES NOT COME FROM THE ITUNES STORE I'm running an 06 Macbook 13 inch with OSX 10.6.5 and running the lastest ver of Itunes ....and I have 15 years of computer experience on Both Mac and PC ...Tho the Mac Is more like 5 years experience

    @ Any rate... I guess the AVI ...that is already in Itunes must be the problem .... Tho I couldnt tell you the CODEC in the AVI Container ... The DVD was an MP3 DVD as stated ....Nothing but MP3/Data ...burnt in nero I believe .... But you know what ....Honestly what does the MP3 header have to do with the Video I cant add to my library.... I am flippant because I have been dealing with this problem for 6 months now ....and It seems that there are Plenty of Questions Answered ....But No answers for the questions asked ....And I am extremely PO'd about the whole situation ....I bought a Mac to get away from this kind of inexplicable kind of problem ...I didnt have a problem Adding the other 3000+ Mp3's and the AVI container video file that is already in there .... IF You give me a list of Q to answer and I will answer to the best of my ability .....If you spend your time being round a bout with your methodology ...which sorry but that how I perceive it....and I will Restate my Issue if there was any confusion .... My problem is ...I cannot add to my Itunes library any file that isn't down-loadable content for Itunes Store ... That includes ..Video File (any and all tried), Music Files (MP3, WAV, WMA(for giggles), AAC,) And PDF files .... And I just did this today ....So I'm sorry I'm to tense to be caring about syntax and capitals ...

  • When i add a new contact to my phone, their details are saved in my contact list, but the name doesn't show up when they ring or txt me, how can i change that?

    when i add a new contact to my phone, their details are saved in my contact list, but the name doesn't show up when they ring or txt me, how can i change that?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • Why can't I get all my contacts onto the iCloud?

    Why can't I get all my contacts onto the iCloud?

    What I used to copy my contacts from my 1st gen iPod touch to my new 5th gen iPod touch was a piece of software called Syncios.  Just download and install Syncios (www.syncios.com), which is totally 100% FREE.  When you connect your iPad to your computer via the included cable it'll give you a Warning about you can't have iTunes running.  On the Syncios website it'll give you all of the info on how to back up your contacts.  When you connect your 5th gen iPod touch to your computer just click on the Recover button then the file name of the contact back up.  Hope this helps you and it helped me a lot.  I backed up both my contacts and notes using the same software.

  • Why can't I post a new topic in the Leopard discussions.

    The option is available in other Apple discussions, but for some reason it's not an option for me in the Leopard area.
    I just want to ask a simple question about why Firefox is now launching every time I restart my computer, but don't want to do so in a discussion about Final Cut or iLife or any of the other forums where posting a new topic is an option because that would be bad etiquette. At the same time, I'm not given much of an option.

    If you have a Technical question about Apple Hardware, Programs, Services, Technology, Software, Applications, Products, etc, from this page Discussions - Forum Home, select an appropriate Category from one of the sixteen divisions.

    On the page that opens, select a Forum, such as Installation & Setup, or Using Mac OS X Leopard.
    Most Category pages, have numerous Forums within them.

  • Cannot add a new characteristics from the system catalog

    Hi,
    I am trying to pull and add a new characteristics from the existing characteristics catalog. However when i save and activate the new char, the system throwing a yellow warning message as "Field KMKDGR has the same name as field KDGRP". When i proceed to save it since its just a warning message the system says all fields are saved. However when i quit and come to the characteristics list of the op concern, i notice the new characteristic is not added into the list of characteristics. Why is it so?
    Is it because of the warning message?

    Hi
    The warning message can be ignored...
    Once you save the char, you need to reactivate your data structure in KEA0... Ideally, when you save and press the back button, system itself gives a pop up message to reactivate the data structure...
    1. Push the char from right to left
    2. There will be a "match-stick" icon at the top left of the screen.. Click it
    3. Then press back button
    4. Whether with our without pop up message, activate your data structure in KEA0
    Regards

  • Why do I have to browse all my email contact in the phone app?

    When browsing for a phone number in my contact list from the phone app, why do I have to browse through the 100's of contacts for which I just have an email address with no phone number?
    Thanks

    You can browse for the name, or you can use the search feature available at the top of the contact list. To move to the top of the contact list and the search feature, select the status bar to go directly to the top of the list and the search option.

    Sorry for my english i'm spanish

    I have not tried that...I will look up the process so that I can do it correctly (and still transfer all of my files, contacts, etc).  Any suggestions?  What is the advantage of restoring as a new device..is this more akin to a complete wipe of a hard drive?

  • Why can't I download Adobe Premiere Pro from the cloud- have tried repeatedly, followed all the post

    Why can't I download Adobe Premiere Pro from the cloud- have tried repeatedly, followed all the posted advice- all other programs have downloaded without a hitch.... what's the deal?

    Hi Clearly Stated,
    Maybe try downloading the Premiere Pro trial and then licensing it?
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=premiere_pro
    After you install just covert it to be licensed as part of Creative Cloud using the "License This Software" option shown here.

        backpack12,
    Voicemails are a vital part of having a working phone. We do suggest that you look at the contact and then the number to make sure that it is *86. If you are needing to get your voicemails until then, please dial *86.

    I upgraded to the Samsung Galaxy S5 two months ago. I'm still unable to sync or move contacts from the phone into my 2012 Toyota Camry. I've been to the dealership to have them look at my car. It also has been tried in 2 different 2014 models. I don't know if it's a Verizon/Samsung issue but I'm quite upset about it. I would have stayed with the S4 if I had know so many issues were on the horizon. I need a fix. Please help.@
