Add photo to Notes section of Contact Record

When I try to add a photo to the Notes section of a contact record - it will not save. Error message is "Unknown Error".
This used to work fine. How can I fix it?

Hi,
Which type of email account are you using? Please note that inserting photos into contacts Notes section is not supported in an Outlook.com/Hotmail account connected via Exchange ActiveSync (EAS) in Outlook 2013.
If this is not the case, please try to run a repair of your Outlook data file and then test again. To do this, please refer:
http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/272227
Please let me know the result.

Photos do not print in Contacts (a.k.a. Address Book) when I am printing a group.

One of simple things that I have loved from the beginning with my iPhone and my iMac is that when I meet a new person, I can record their contact information in the Address Book on my iPhone and attached their photo to it. When I arrive home I am then able to sync my Contacts from my iPhone with my iMac. Then with my iMac, I am able to print an entire group from my Contacts (including all the individual information from the v-card - photos and all.) Creating a photo roster if you will. I love sharing these photo rosters (by making a PDF copy) with others.
After updating to Snow Lion is appears that function is gone! I highlight all the members in the group from my Contact, then File>Print. It list in the dialog box that I can check photos but when I do it does not show any of the photos from the Contacts in the print preview window. It is so odd because I can see their photos in my Address Book / Contacts on my iMac but I can not print them with the other information with the Contact
Please help me! I really miss this features. I have gone into preferences and I can not see what maybe causing the problem. I have never had this issue with the previous three version of OSX. I have stopped syncing my contacts with iCloud but I am still unable to print groups of members with their photos. In fact I am unable to print from my iMac any one individual contact with their photo.
Please help me. Thank you for reading my request.

Is there no one who knows how to solve this problem? It really would be a great help!

From reading Vista forums support for SSD is one of the things Vista SP2 and Windows 7 hope (need) to improve upon. I was in a similar discussion once befoe on SSDs:

I don't think it is EFI issue, but with XP and drivers, lack, and wonder if you can try with Vista?

That won't solve performance issues, but should work.

"My guess is that [Samsung and Microsoft] are maybe working on the OS recognizing an SSD with a 4K-byte sector size instead of a hard disk drive with a 512-byte sector size," Wong said.
Sun is already working with Samsung to bulk up SSD support on the ZFS (Zettabyte File System), which is included in the Solaris OS, and will also be supported in Apple's upcoming Mac OS X 10.6, codenamed Snow Leopard. Sun is adding capabilities to boost the durability and performance of SSDs on ZFS-based operating systems. For example, Sun may add defragmentation capabilities for SSDs, which organizes data in a particular order to enable quicker data access.
SSDs were not considered ideal for defragmentation because of limited read-and-write capabilities, Wong said. However, Samsung and Sun in July jointly announced an 8G-byte SSD that bumped up durability from 100,000 read-and-write cycles to 500,000. That brings defragmentation in SSDs closer to reality, which could improve its caching and provide quicker access to data. Sun plans to put SSDs into storage products later this year.

Add symbol does not appear in contacts

The add symbol has gone from my contacts, does anyone know how to get this back?

Try going into Settings > iCloud and toggling the Contacts button off and on and see if you can then add contacts in the Contacts app

Is there a way for the Yosemite maps app to add address to an existing contact (in contacts app) instead of creating new contact record with blank name (not useful)?

I was using the maps app in yosemite to look up an address, once I was able to verify the address, I wanted to add that address to an existing contact record in the contacts app. When I clicked on the option to add address to contacts, it unfortunately creates a new record with the address in it, however, the rest of the contact is blank.
My question is: is there a way to prompt the user (me), to select whether they want to create a new contact or add it to an existing contact?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Peter

How do I add the country code to all contacts when it did not previously appear?

I just moved from the US to the UK and purchased a new iPhone 4S. When my contacts migrated from Outlook to the iPhone they did not include the country code in the US and therefore all contacts numbers are now listed incorrectly. How can I add the country code to hundreds of contacts painlessly?
Thanks in advance.

International Assist is activated. Upon further review this appears to be a case of the original country codes not being added when the contact list was constructed. iOS has not figured this out and thus when changing countries I've been forced to add the country codes to every contact record manually. Disappointing and very labour intensive. If only Apple allowed for a macro that simplified the mass change.

HT5887 Air Drop does not transmit Contact info located in the Notes Section of the Contact. How does one transfer All Fields of a contact record?

Transferred a Contact from my iPhone 5S/ios7 to my iPad Air. Successfully transferred the Contact including all ph numbers, email addresses, and street addresses. But -- it did NOT transfer all the text in the "Notes" section of the original Contact. Why? Some of my Contacts also have a photo in the same Notes Section. I don't want to sync the devices via the cloud because I just want selected Contacts. Sharing via email does the same thing - no Notes. Only way I've found is to Sync with Outlook Contacts on my Windows XP and Windows7 PCs.

So far it appears Microsoft's Outlook program is the only contact manager capable of "Forwarding" a Contact record that is all inclusive of all the data in the Contact including the Notes data.
While some may use the Notes field to store "secret or confidential" information...I've used it to store more mundane Notes that are not NOT confidential or sensitive in any way. Moreover....only want to "Share" (Microsoft calls it "Forward") with my own multiple devices. The "Notes" data might include a picture, another type of image, a map, a URL, etc. I and the rest of the MS Windows user world began building Contacts in Outlook so long ago it is not practical to switch to iOS-based personal info management software unless it allows complete conversions or "Sharing" as Apple calls it.
Microsoft figured this out years ago by allowing the user to choose whether to include Notes or not when "Forwarding" any individual Outlook Contact Record. It sounds like we need Microsoft Outlook for iOS like we have MS Outlook for MAC. With thousands of Contacts in MS Outlook 2010 I can't do without the Notes data in my files. And it isn't practical to use a syncing function when I only need 10-20% of my overall contacts on some of my iOS devices.

ContactList_UpdateInsert will not update Contact Record

I'm having trouble getting ContactList_UpdateInsert to work with Contact Records that have a username.
1) First, I call Contact_RetrieveByEntityID('adminuser', 'password' , 1234, entity_id) to retrieve the contact record data for updating.
cr = c.service.Contact_RetrieveByEntityID('adminuser', 'password' , 1234, entity_id)
2) Then I modify some data, such as ExternalID
cr.externalId = '123456'
3) Calling ContactList_UpdateInsert returns an error:
'Contact(s) saved in the system. Please review the list of error(s)/warning(s) found when processing the data.\n- Contact: John Doe | ERROR: The username [TestUser] cannot be assigned to contact with email [] as it is already used.'
Manually adding the emailAddress field because it's not in the original cr record fixes that error.
cr.emailAddress = '[email protected]'
Calling again gives the error:
Contact(s) saved in the system. Please review the list of error(s)/warning(s) found when processing the data.\n- Contact: John Doe | ERROR: The username [TestUser] cannot be assigned to contact with email [[email protected]] as it is already used.'
It seems as though any time the contact record has a username assigned, I'm unable to update the record. What's the deal??
EDIT: I thought I was posting this in the API section, but apparently not. Sorry.

Okay I figured this out. When updating, you either have to supply externalId or emailAddress to match the record you want to change. If neither is supplied, or it doesn't match the supplied value, it adds a new record instead of update. So if you're trying to add an external id, you have to supply the emailAddress parameter as well, so it can match the record you want to change. I don't know if you can change the external id since it will try to match the external id before the email address.
This is the explanation from the knowledgebase
Please note that similarly to the import routine, you can utilize the External ID property to set a unique idenitifier value for each customer. If this value is present then customers are matched and updated accordingly. For example if every customer in your system has a member number, then assign that to the External ID property. If you do not utilize this property then the unique identifier used will be a customer's email address. If neither is provided then contacts are added and never updated as no unique identifier exists.
I assumed that if you retrieve the record you want first (using Contact_RetrieveByEmailAddress), then make your changes and send it to ContactList_UpdateInsert, it should just update that record. But you have to set the emailAddress parameter.

Kolyei, sorry for the late reply.
Have your brother create a contact in his phone for himself. Inside his own contact, have him add his phone number and his iCloud address.
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive Have your brother select both his phone number and email addresses where he would like to receive iMessages.

Incoming calls are not finding contact records

I just upgraded phones from a 3GS to a 4S. The contact records transferred over and call history did as well.
But the call history and incoming calls only show the number, they do not show the contact information. In the contact record, the phone numbers are missing the phone formatting, the () around the area code, etc.
I tried opening the record and saving it to see if it would add the formatting. It didn't. I really don't want to type in each phone number again.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Hi Andy,
I just resolved this problem and I think I have the fix for you. First, when you upgraded from the 3GS to the 4S, did you switch carriers (from AT&T to Verizon for example)? I did and had the same problem you are experiencing. Here is the fix:
1. If you are using Verizon, open the Phone app and dial *228. You will be connected with Verizon's programming system. When prompted, press "1" for "Program or Activate Your Phone".
2. You will have to wait listening to music while the system upgrades your programming. Wait until the system says something like "Your settings or programming have been updated". Then disconnect the call.
3. Open the iPhone Task Manager (double tap the "Home" button). Make sure that you see the Message, Phone and Contact applications. If you don't see one of those apps, go back and open them in the main menu screen.
4. In the Task Manager, press your finger on one of those three apps (Contacts, Phone, Messages) until all the apps start to jiggle. Delete the Messages, Contacts and Phone apps (don't worry, they are still on your phone).
5. Wait about three minutes, then go back to the Main Menu screen and open the Messages app. Everything should be fine. As it will be in the Contacts app.
That's it! Worked for me. Hope for the same with you.

Contact record not pupulated when Task created using Workflow.

Hi All
I am using workflow to create Tasks when new Serivce Records have been created. When the Service Record is created and the Contact field is linked to a Contact record, the Contact does not carry through to the Task record created by the workflow. I have noticed that when I add the Task manually to the SR that the Contact record does carry through so is there something I need to add to my workflow?
Thanks Gail

Hi Mani
I have an SR raised for this already SR 3-162376211, should I close this? Do you have a reference number or something for me to reference this issue/enhancement request with in the future?
Thanks Gail
