All buttons work, except the Phone, contacts. It is stuck on the last person I looked up.

All the buttons on my iphone 4 work, except the Phone/Contacts/favourites & recent. It is stuck on the last contact I looked up. How can I fix this?

Thanks, I just turned completely off and it worked. Finally found the answer online Apple support. Boy it takes forever to find things.

IOS7 installed OK to my iPhone 4S and worked OK for a while but I have somehow managed to completely jam my iPhone 4s. The touch screen won't work except for up and down gestures (some of the time). I can't make or answer calls, I can't even power if off. I can't access the hardward ID which Apple support seems to require for Chat.
It might have happened when I was accessing my camera bypassing the lock screen!
All I know is that the thing is now useless and it looks like I will have to wait for the battery to run down to see if powering it back up afterwards will solve the problem.

I have since discovered the "hold down home key and power button" together for a few seconds and this seems to have worked .... phew!

How to secure the phone contacts of Asha and other...

Phone contacts are very important assets. It is always advisable to take regular backup of important data for safety.
Here are the different methods to secure your contacts and solutions to solve common contacts problems.
1. Using your phone's sync-and-backup option
To backup the phone contacts using your phone,
go to settings, sync-and-backup, create backup. Mark the contacts and neccessary items you need for backup.
Note: Creating backup doesn't work without memory card.
2. Using Nokia suite
Install the latest version of Nokia suite from here.
Connect your phone to PC using data cable(set Nokia suite mode on phone) or via bluetooth.
Launch the Nokia Suite, open contacts and follow these:
2A. Using drag and drop
You can simply drag and drop the contacts to a folder of your computer as shown:
You can also drag and drop contacts from the PC folder back to Nokia suite.
2B. Using Backup/Restore option of Nokia Suite
To backup or restore using Nokia suite, go to tools-backup/restore.
2C. Using the sync option
You can sync your phone contacts to Nokia suite by default, as well as with Microsoft Outlook.
To sync your contacts to Outlook, open Nokia suite, go to sync-sync options and select Microsoft Outlook in contacts as shown:
After syncing, the contacts of your phone will be copied to both Nokia suite and Microsoft Outlook:
Note: Creating or deleting any contacts in any one of the locations like either phone or Nokia suite or Outlook, updates the same changes in the remaining two places.
It is highly recommended to use drag and drop method to backup contacts instead of sync for simplicity.
3. Common problems with contacts and solutions
3A. Avoiding repeated contacts.
You might have copied all the phone conatcts to SIM card as a backup, but the contacts will be shown twice.
When you have similar contacts in both the SIM card as well as phone, you can change the settings such that either of the SIM contacts or phone contacts are only visible, for this, go to contacts-settings-memory in use and change it to either phone or SIM card.
3B. Deleting the either only SIM or phone contacts.
You can always delete either SIM or phone contacts. Go to contacts-delete all contacts and select either SIM card or phone.
3C. Deleting repeated contacts using PC.
Sometimes the contacts will be repeated in the phone memory itself. To fix this, drag and drop your contacts to a folder and delete all the contacts having parenthesis () as shown:
Now you can delete all the contacts of the phone and copy(drag and drop) the non repeated contacts from the PC back to phone.
4. Recovering the contacts from a corrupted backup file of the phone using PC
There are situations when restoring data fails due to corrupted backup file.
To solve this,
A. Connect the memory card to PC using a card reader.
B. Enable the hidden folders and extension in view or in the folder options, go to memory card/backup folder and copy the .NBF file to your PC.
C. Change the extension of the backup file from .NBF to .ZIP.
D. After renaming, the backup file can be extracted using any compression applications like WinRar or default ZIP manager.
E. The contacts of the backup file can be found at
\Backup000\predefhiddenfolder\backup\WIP\32\contacts.
These contact files can now be copied back to your phone using Nokia suite(using drag and drop method).

"Your options are:
Get a trial account form @mac which will work as an iChat name after the 60 days run out but not be a email account that is valid (And is free)"
Do you mean a trial account from .Mac? (DotMac)
"Get an AIM Screen name and set it to Display what you want as you set it up.
The Screen name can be whatever yu want but you can also set it to display something else as well."
I had thought about this, but it seems other people have already chosen the screen name "pinksharkmark" and virtually every variation of it I can think of. So that isn't an option for me. As for getting it to display something else as well, do you mean that if I were to get an AIM screen name like "CromulentCat" I could somehow log in to iChat under the AIM account "CromulentCat" yet get iChat to represent me to my Buddies as "PinkSharkMark"? Because I have to admit I don't see how that can be done. It appears as if iChat displays to anyone chatting with you precisely the account name you logged in under and nothing else. So if you logged in using a .Mac account, then you are displayed as "[email protected]" while if you logged in under an AIM account, you are displayed as "CromulentCat". But that's it that's all... there is no way to change CromulentCat to PinkSharkMark.
Thanks very much for taking the time to reply, though.

I just recently synchronized my contacts using outlook express, and I want to be able to view the phone contacts on the computer, how could I do that?

I just recently synchronized my contacts using outlook express, and I want to be able to view the phone contacts on the computer, how could I do that? I can't restore the phone then back it up on my computer because I'm on using windows XP and I cannot update my iTunes and thus I can't synchronize my phone back so I lost all my important work contacts and I'm just wondering if I can somehow access it on the computer

You would open Outlook Express on your PC...

Hello jayanand,
You may need to force close all open apps, then restart the phone. If necessary, you may need to reset the phone after that.

I just recently upgraded my itouch from 4.1 to ios5, and updated to itunes 10.5. when isynced my music files,ebooks and other apps, all is working except when im trying to sync my video files. it says, canot be synced as cannot be played on this ipod.help

i just recently upgraded my itouch from 4.1 to ios 5, and updated to itunes 10.5. but when i synced my music files,ebooks and other apps, all is working except when im trying to sync my video files. it says, canot be synced as cannot be played on this ipod. but those are the same files that i have when i was using the old 4.1 version and its syncing just fine.. the itunes advanced tab "create iphone or ipod version" is not working either so i cant convert it to be xferred and synced. what can i do to have my video files synced?

i had the same problem but i just got a new video converter and made it convert videos to ipod/iphone format and then put them into itunes. i would suggest GOM encoder as the encoder can convert them and then once they're finished converting, put them automatically into your itunes for you. from there you can just sync them to your ipod.

Phone contacts are not visible on the Z10 after a OS 10.2..1 update, but are still in there somewhere...

It was yesterday that I updated on my Z10 model STL100-1 OS from 10.1.0.273 to 10.2.1.1925 and got an instant message to update to 10.2.1.537 and did that, too The update process went smoothly enough.
But, after loading the new 10.2 OS from BB's website I can't see my most often used phone contacts. I can get my gmail contacts but those are email addresses mostly. It looks like the old phone contacts are still somewhere in the phone because when I manually add them back to my contacts I get a warning that the entry already exists and asking if I want to edit it or add a new one. I choose add a new one since I don't see the old ones. I did update from all the SIMS I use, and got very few additional contacts.
I have also lost my past record of texts, i.e. SMS. That also is a biggg loss What happened to the texts? Where were they saved? Are they still on a data file somewhere in the machine? Are the old contacts somewhere in the machine.
Thanks for any ideas.
Ken

That's another odd thing. I did make a big effort to back-up the Z10 before the update to OS 10.2.1. But, it appears to me that by downloading the new OS to my computer [T-Mobile never does push the BB updates, not as long as I've owned it, which was a few days before the US distro, when I got hold of one for the South American market in Miami Breach] it seems to have removed my installed BB Link from my laptop. And my back-up files are empty.
Last time something like this happened. there was a workaround. Do this, do that, and suddently the contacts that are lurking somewhere on the phone, appear. I was hoping for this again.
If this is a known issue, why is it not featured on the BB page where the installer was located? I would never have downloaded OS 10.2.1, if I was warned I might lose my contacts and texts.
A sorry mess.

PS Note I corrected "visible" to "invisible" in the title of this thread

My Lumia Icon goes dark during calls and I cannot access the phone pad to unless I hit the power button.

My Lumia Icon goes dark during calls and I cannot access the phone pad to unless I hit the power button. Because of this it makes it tough to put my phone on speaker or type in my v-mail password.

I've been trying to find a common denominator. It happens inconsistently. It never happened before the Denim update. When it does occur, the screen goes black immediately upon answering the call and doesn't come back until the call is ended by the calling party.
I thought it might be the proximity sensor, but when it's working normally I can see the screen go dark when it's at my ear and comes back when I take it away (tried it multiple times). I had Gestures Beta installed. I wondered if that could have an affect so I uninstalled it, but that didn't make any difference. I'm still stumped by the inconsistency. I haven't reset my phone as I didn't really want to go through that...

Doing those doesn't turn off your phone?
As stated hold down the top button only until you see the red slider to power off your phone.
If that doesn't work then take it to Apple and see what they say.

How can I back up an iphone when I haven't set the phone up for back ups & the touch screen doesn't work? The phone can receive calls (not answer) & the pictures & messages can be seen but the touch screen doesn't work to unlock the phone or select anything. We want to save/transfer pictures, contacts, and music to the replacement phone.

Try backing it up to your computer with iTunes. Connect it to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of the phone in iTunes, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Back Up Now. Also go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases to transfer you apps and other purchased media to your iTunes library.

I have not been able to get the built-in iPhone 4S keyboard dictation to work. I talk into it, then tap "Done", then the phone "thinks" for a few seconds (the purple dots pulse and I see the network icon on the top bar spinning) and then nothing happens.

Siri is wroking fine

I am experiencing exactly the same problem, today, and a reset, of all settings, did nothing to correct it. Any suggestions would be welcome. While dictation in all apps is out, Siri is working fine also.

Does anyone know how to upload email contacts on my iPhone from iTunes without loosing the phone contacts previously transfered from my older phone??

Good Afternoon irish357,
I know the importance of saving and updating your contacts. What type of phone do you have? If you are using Backup Assistant, you have the ability to sync the contacts between your laptop and phone. You will also be able to see if all your contacts are stored on the online portion of the application versus the phone itself. The contacts should be the same for both online and the phone.
I have attached a link below for your reference.
