An app that actually says the callers name

I am an iphone neophyte. I am looking for an app that actually says a callers name. Any help?

I only know of an app for jailbroken iPhones. I used to have a jailbroken iPhone and the app worked fine. It would be nice to have the option for non-jailbroken phones.

  • Can I make the iphone say the callers name in my bluetooth?

    My old Nokia would tell me who was calling in my bluetooth headset. I can't find anything in my iphone that will do that, am I missing something?

    Try this?

  • I tried to play my iTunes and suddenly get an error message that says "The song (name) could not be used because the original file could not be found.  Would you like to locate it now?"  It happens on all my tunes and each one I select ends up with a "?"

    I tried to play my iTunes and suddenly get an error message that says "The song (name) could not be used because the original file could not be found.  Would you like to locate it now?"  It happens on each tune I select and a "?" appears beside the song.  Does this sound familiar to anyone?

    I was not complete clear.
    Since you never changed the settings in the advanced section of iTunes preferecnes, you have to chech that your music is really in the location setted in the folders reported in the advanced section.  If not you have 2 ways: reset the position of this folders or in the actual disk organisation or in the pointing on the preferences.
    If you press the reset button you just give to itunes its default setting as for the position of the music files: probably this will be a good choice if you have never changed any default preference.
    But before I would check the folders and see if the songs are really there
    In my iTune I have this, and I believe it is the default.

  • HT1473 iTunes message saying the song names for this cd could not be found online when it's iTunes store, What's up with that?

    I just purchased The Very Best Of Eagles CD, Popped it into my drive so excited to own the copy but when I tired to copy it to my Library I get this message saying the song names for this cd could not be found online when it's in the iTunes store, What's up with that?    Is there any way to get track information and artwork without Having to manually inter all the info?  

    iTunes gets track information from Gracenote's database, so iTunes must be able to reach gracenote.com and the CD must have been entered there by some purchaser already (all CD information in Gracenote is provided by we users). If these are common, commercially-distributed CDs, it may be that there is a firewall or privacy filter blocking access to gracenote.com. If these are unusual, independently-released or rare CDs, they just may not be in Gracenote yet. In the case of a custom CD where it's a compilation, Gracenote probably won't be able to identify them (it goes by complete albums, comparing the number and length of the tracks to try and figure out what album it is).
    Hope this helps.

  • System keeps looking for a 'server' that does not exist. Is says the old name of my Airport Extreme. Clicking it away (4x) it gets through.

    Other weirdness to report: my neighbor upstairs appears to have a Linksys router network on channel 6. My AEBS is on channel 1 so there shouldn't be interference... but according to iStumbler sometimes the signal leaps to 64000 (keep in mind my own Airport never tops 60)! Is that potentially the problem?
    Might it be possible that your neighbor just acquired a 802.11n (pre-N) wireless router recently?
    802.11n effectively increases capacity by doubling the number of Wi-Fi radios and increasing the number of antennas used to push signals out of those radios. 802.11n splits a data frame into multiple pieces. It then transmits these pieces in parallel using multiple radios that are attached to multiple antennas. These antennas blast out signals from virtually the same vantage point – scattering the signals everywhere.

    Even if he did not, and you are on good terms, you might want to ask if he can temporarily turn off his wireless, or, at least, reduce the signal strength to see if that will help in your situation.

  • My messages won't say the contact name only shows the phone number, how do you change this when the contact is in my phone under that number already?

    My messages won't say the contact name only shows the phone number, how do you change this when the contact is in my phone under that number already?

    I thought that at first, but I have text this person before and had received responses in a timely manner. Its just weird that it all of a sudden removed their name.
    Would this affect the delivery of the text message?

    i updated my ipod the other day and since i have been unable to open any apps that connect to the internet, its says "operation could not be completed. invalid argument". anybody help please?

    Have yu tried the standard fixes:
    - Reset the iPod:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Restore the iPod via iTunes,  First from backup and if problems persist, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • TS3999 Is there a calendar app that actually works on the iphone4?

    Everything ties to iCalendar which never works.  I have been unable to fund an app that is independent of iCal and it would be nice to have a calendar app that actually works.  If I have try and un-install then re-stall one more time, I'm going to scream!

    It never opens.  there is no way to delete and re-install it.  The general trouble shooting tips rarely work.
    If I use another calendar app it won't open if iCal won't open.

  • Why is when I try to download from the App Store, it says "The application cannot be downloaded." I do have an ID account and my software has been updated.

       Hello there, I'm new to the Apple world, and I'm still learning my way around.
    Why is when I try to download from the App Store, it says "The application cannot be downloaded."
    It doesn't ask me for payment or anything. When I click on download, about 10 seconds later, that message pops up and nothing is downloaded onto my laptop. I can download other stuff onto my laptop for e.g. Microsoft Word and other various programs such as Google Chrome from the internet. However, I just cannot download from App Store. Any suggestions on how I can download apps?

    There is nothing wrong with my iTunes, is more of the App store that I am concerned about. And I've tried the "Authorise this computer" yes it does download when using iTunes, but no luck with App Store. And, yes I am logged onto iTunes when doing purchases.
    I find this really fustrating because the App store works fine on my ipod but once it comes to my macbook, it does not download. A few seconds later after I click on an app to download, the pop up message notifies me that the purchase cannot be downloaded.
    Anyways, thanks for your suggestion. 

  • Never had trouble before with my incoming mail but just now I get a messege saying the user name or password for verizon is incorrect on my iPad but is fine on my home computer what's wrong with my ipad

    Never had trouble before with my incoming mail but just now getting messege that says the user name or password for verizon is incorrect yet my home computer is fine only have this od my iPad

    I experienced same problem tonight and called Verizon technical support and they walked me through the settings on iPad. Took about 5 minutes. Basically it involved changing incoming.verizon.net to pop.verizon.net and changing outgoing.verizon.net to smtp.verizon.net. But it's worth the call to ensure other settings are OK. Evidently, change at Verizon was effective today!

  • IPad won't display my Gmail contacts in the Contacts app that comes with the IPad.

    I have never been able to get my Gmail contacts imported into the Contacts app that comes with the IPad.

    If you can be more specific about what you have tried, someone might be able to offer other solutions.
    I sync my contacts and calendar with Gmail too. I don't use iCloud for syncing contacts. I have set it up as an exchange account. That works on both my ipad and iphone. Any changes made to either is reflected on the other.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Add new account>Microsoft Exchange. Leave out the domain name. The server when asked is m.google.com. Turn on contacts (and calendar or mail if you use them) and that's it.
    If that does not work, perhaps you can describe what issue you are having.

  • My ipad VIDEOS app doesn't show the movie Names with IOS 7

    I just upgraded to IOS 7.  The Apple VIDEOS app no longer displays the file name for videos that don't have album art.  I have to tap on each video screen shot (which is typically meaningless) to bring up the info/play screen to see the movie's "Name".  Under IOS 6.1.4 (and prior versions) the VIDEOS app displayed the .mp4 file name underneath all videos without album art.
    Is there an option to set to get the "Name" displayed on the VIDEOS main screen, or get a LIST view rather than an icon view, using IOS 7? (I have not found one)
    Since most of my movies do not have album art this makes the VIDEOS app virtually useless.

    OK, I gave up.  You just can't fight city hall.
    After messing with changing from 'Movie' to 'Home Video' I just said screw it.  I just finished doing the following for my 64 'Home Video' movies:
    - I did a Google image search on <movie name> poster
    - I clicked on the thumbnail to bring up the image
    - I did a right-click SAVE IMAGE AS
    - I then did a GET INFO on the movie through iTunes
    - I clicked on the ARTWORK tab
    - I added the image I just found as the the artwork
    - I change the MEDIA KIND back to MOVIE
    - I then recopied the movies I keep on my iPad (about 10) from the PC
    No more problems now either with viewing the local or Shared movie lists from my iPad. As I add new movies I will make sure to manually add the artwork.  What a PITA.
    Hopefully Apple will get this fixed. This movie UI painfulness (that wasn't even a problem on IOS 6.x) is something worthy of Microsoft.
