"add to contacts" from phone number link doesn't work, iOS 8.1

When you click on a phone number, e.g. in a Facebook messenger chat, you get the option to call the number or "add to contacts". If you click "add to contacts", the contact screen appears for a moment and closes again. I have tried a few times but it's not possible to use this feature. Seems to be a bug.
iOS 8.1, iPhone 4S

Hey Kalii, I also have the same problem here. I'm in Hong-Kong with 3 network and iOs 8.1.1
Was working all fine when I bought the Iphone 6 about 2 weeks ago. Go to Thailand over the weekend and when I get back impossible to reconnect to the network.
Tried to force restart, tried to loose wifi and reconnect, tried to restore network and tried the airplane mode on-off..... nothing works!
Not sure if changing the sim will do anything, I'm sure it's the Iphone 6 antenna or software itself that got a problem!

  • How to save new contact from phone app to ms outlook work account instead of local contact

    Hi,
    I need some help please.
    I usually save new numbers that call me from the phone app, I just hit "add to contacts".
    I keep all of my contacts on my work microsoft outlook account so they are synced with my work, I have absolutely no local contacts on the phone.
    My Z10 saves these contacts directly as local contacts instead of saving them on my work account.
    However, if I go to the phonebook app, and select add new contact from there, I have the option to select whether it's a personal or a work contact. If I select work contact, it will save it to my work outlook and everything's fine, however when saving from the phone app I don't have this option.
    I don't understand what I'm doing, wrong, please help on how to save to work account directly from phone app.
    Thank you
    Solved!

    Hey bllizzard,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    What version of BlackBerry 10 software are you currently using?  Go to Settings>About to find this information.
    When in the phone application and press and hold a number, choose add to contacts.  Then click Add contact at the bottom, at the very top you'll have a choice to choose Personal or Work.  Choose Work if you want the contact saved to your work email account.
    Let me know if you have any more questions.
    Cheers.

  • Synching contacts from computer to iPod doesn't work with Contacts

    Do not understand why Contacts (on iPod) doesn't get Entourage Address Book from Mac computer.

    Restore from a backup at which point Skype was on the iPod. Apps are not part of the backup, but all of your apps should still be restored from iTunes.

  • Add new contact from Recent no longer working

    I was in the process of adding a contact from my Recent Calls list. Another call came in, so I took it. When I went back to complete the process, the contact add screen was gone.
    Now, after multiple shutdowns and restarts of the phone, I can't add a contact from my recents list. It's as if partially entered screen is lurking in the background, and until I complete it, it won't give me a new screen to fill out for another number. (This is my interpretation of the issue.)
    Anyway, when I click on the Create New Contact or Add to Existing Contact buttons after hitting the arrow to the right of the number in the list, nothing happens. The text and call buttons still work.
    How can I get the phone to "release" the partial data, if that's the issue, and start giving me the screen to enter the contact info?

    Try adding a contact from another app, like Maps or email yourself a vCard.
    If that doesn't work, you'll need to restore the iPhone from backup or setup as a new device.

  • I recently updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, and lost 1200 odd contacts. I have a backup from about 4-5 months ago avaiable.  Can I add/update contacts from the back up rather than restore which i assume will literally delete any new contacts added...?

    I recently updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, and lost 1200 odd contacts. I recently sold my macbook air and also my mac book pro, so have no recent backups avaiable.  I have a backup from about 4-5 months ago available on an external hdd as a time machine backup.  Can I add/update contacts from the back up rather than restore?  The reason i wish to do this is because in the update i didnt lose any messages, so all of the people i have met and networked with since that last update those many months ago, i have in my messages listings.  They are all unidentified numbers at present but over time i will be able to work through the messages and based on the conversation recall who each was with.  Also, yesterday, some two weeks after the update had left my contacts list entirely empty... a vast majority just reappeard, though all of them are without any phone numbers, all just emails or facebook contacts.  This is the work of facebook not mac/ios6 isnt it...?  Any help here would be greatly apprecaited.  I am about 2 days from flying to canada and having those contacts would make life a lot easier.

    You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup.  If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup.  You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone.  However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

  • How do I add a contact from the same company to my address book?

    How do I add a contact from the same company to my address book? I do not want to re-type all of the information. Thanks for your help.

    Any card in your address book can be duplicated. Select the card within the Name column, and use the Edit > Copy menu item followed by the Edit > Paste menu item. Then you can update the card copy and only change the name/email/phone fields as needed.

  • E71 how to search contact by phone number

    Hi All,
    any idea for E71 how to search contact by phone number? sometimes it will be useful if  i can just type in the phone number and it show me the contact name
    Thanks

    There is no way to do that directly from Home Screen, however you can always get in the "Search: Internet and My Content" application, choose contacts and start to type phone number. You will get what you want.
    Enjoy!

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    There are apps you can dowload that will let you sync your contacts across platforms or backup and restore contacts without iTunes.  An app that will sync your contacts is Contacts Sync.  Search the app store and find an app that will meet your needs.

  • Translation from CS5 to Cloud doesn't  work correct, navi and linked images are broken.

    Translation from CS5 to Cloud doesn't  work correct, <navi> and linked images are broken.
    The data of CS5 was created at another PC. I installed Cloud version into two different PC. One has had the site data since dreamweaver CS5 and it works correct in Cloud version. Another PC got the site data from remote server and it doesn't work correct. <navi> and linked image are broken.

    Another PC got the site data from remote server and it doesn't work correct. <navi> and linked image are broken.
    This implies your site is not properly defined in DW.  Go to Site > Manage Sites.
    Or simply go to your other installation of DW and export the site definition file from Manage Sites.
    Save it to a flash stick or other removable drive.  Then import the STE file into your 2nd installation of  DW.
