Add new contact country issue

I'm trying to add a new contact directly in my Ipod touch, w/ January update. When I get to the address, it is where it falls apart, the country is Malaysia. Unfortunately, countries are ony selectable, not editable, from what I can tell.
Apple phone support didn't know how to do this either. Many countries in Asia are not included in the selection list. The same goes from many countries in the rest of the world. Any ideas here? Why is this? What can be done? Thx.

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
How very asinine of Apple to make this a pick list rather than a field. Please leave feedback for Apple:

Leave the country blank, then enter it on your PC. It will be synced back correctly.

  • Since the last software update, I am unable to add new contacts or change existing contacts - neither if I use the green Phone app nor using the brown Contacts app. Any suggestions?

    since the last software update, I am unable to add new contacts or change existing contacts - neither if I use the green Phone app nor using the brown Contacts app. Any suggestions?

    *Update*
    I thought I had found the offending 'app' namely "Songpop."
    I regularly use "Songpop" on my phone late at night via my wifi connection.
    All enteries on my phonebill are at midnight (even though I have a data allowance it was excluded from allowance). I switched 3G off on Friday, played "Songpop" at midnight and at the exact time I got a "Server Error" message.
    I posted a message on the "Songpop" support forum.At first they said this was a problem relating to my ISP.
    I have spoken to my ISP and asked if there are connection drops at the time I have been billed (ie to establish if my wifi dropped and 3G kicked in without my knowledge) and have been advised that there aren't any connection drops at that time.
    "Songpop" have now responded that "This is an issue to take up with Apple Support"  see: http://support.songpop.fm/songpop/topics/playing_songpop_on_phone_via_wifi_but_i ncurring_download_data_charges_for_3g_useage?utm_content=topic_link&utm_medium=e mail&utm_source=reply_notification
    Hopefully someone at Apple can respond ....

  • Crash during add new contact (Thai language) iOS 8 i5

    Spec : iPhone 5 iOS8.0.2
    Crash during add new contact with Thai language in field 'first and last name".
    This is a bug in iOS 8, right?

    Hello,
    This is how we fixed this issue, which I believe it's a SW bug by the way.
    Go to Settings/General/Language&Region and delete all the languages you can find there (keep English only).
    After this you will able to add a new contact with Thai characters.
    This worked for us on multiple phones.
    Cheers!

    You can add them via the Contacts application on your iPod or via the Hotmail interface in a web browser.
    For future reference, this forum is for older iPods not the iPad, so you post future questions regarding your iPad in the iPad forums.

  • Cant add new contacts to Address Book Server

    I would like to have a Global Address Book Server where all the user can add/delete contacts. I have done all the setups but in the iMacs (the users) I can see the Address Book Server but NOT the + button to add a new contact. Why ?
    In the group name, together to "Address Book Server" there is not any error icon so I understand the client-server connection is well done.
    Can someone tell me what should I check ?
    Thank you in advanced

    I was look ing at this last night. I think there's an 'add new contacts to' type pop-up somewhere in the client account settings. That might be it.

    when i add new contact to my iphone , and search for it i did't find it but it store in my phone and apperars when called me or i write the no

    In the Contacts app, select "Groups" in the upper left hand corner.
    Then select all the groups that are desired to be displayed.
    Select Done.
    Now search for the contact(s) in question.  Do they appear now?

    Dear William,
    There are some notes for enabling the b2b flag. E.g. 1263919 and 1263915 and likely some more. So, that might help you figure out if perhaps you have missing settings for this feature.
    But based on the limited information you provided it seems that "Segmentation based on relationships" would be suitable. You can check [SAP help|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm700_ehp01/helpdata/en/37/fc60e3bebf4a9ba7121c00e295b3fd/frameset.htm ] for this topic. I was not sure what you meant by "but how to replace the contact person function?"
    Quick excerpt:
    Segmentation based on relationships offers you maximum flexibility when modeling target groups, especially in business-to-business scenarios. You can select business partners using filters for both personal data as well as data relating to the business partner's organization. The system saves all required information on the business partner, such as contact person, organization, and relationship type, with the target group. In the campaign, the contact person is contacted using the address data of the contact person's organization.
    Hope this helps!

  • Contacts. Can't add new contacts after upgrading to Mtn Lion from Snow Leopard.

    I can't add new contacts after upgrading from Snow Leopard to Mountain last week.  I do not use iCloud.  Any suggestions?

    Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    First, empty the Trash.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it, then drag or copy it — do not type — into the Terminal window:
    find . $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl \) 2> /dev/null | wc -l
    Press return. The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "35." Please post it in a reply.

  • Ipad unable to add new contacts

    updated my ipad to ios5. now, i see that i am unable to add new contacts on my ipad. there is no plus button

    Hi I found this elseware and it does correct the problem
    It all has to do with stupid iCloud.  If you go to Settings - iCloud - Turn on Contacts and Calendars you will be able to add contacts and calendar events.  Its so Apple gets to know everything about you, there goes all our privacy.  Thanks apple....... with your new update...now you can sell our data to make you even richer

  • Cant add new contacts to favourites in iphone4

    Unable to add new contacts into favourites section in iphone4. When trying to add new contact the phone simply reverts back to home screen. Any one knows a solution.

    First, try resetting your phone:
    Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release(ignore the slide to power off).

  • Impossible to add new contact or edit

    l can't add new contact or edit on my phone

    Hello !
    Try the following:
    Simply delete all the  Messenger apps (Yahoo, MSN or Live) which you might have upgraded recently / delete apps which were recently installed before the error which actually started occuring .
    After that unplug the battery while the phone is still "on" and restart the phone.
    In fact I had deleted a whole bunch of apps to facilitate my OS upgrade as I did not have enough memory on my Device.  
    This not only helped solve my above mentioned problem but also made my phone restart in less than 3 minutes (the earlier reboot was done in not less than 15  minutes !!).
    Therefore my conclusion as from the above incidents is to keep your apps in the bare minimum so that your phone performs to the best.
    Hope this resolves your Problem!
    If your problem has been resolved then would request you to Click on "Like" and accept as "Solution" so that other Advisors doesnt invest their time on this Message anymore.
