Are notes limited in iphone contacts?

I synced my Outlook contacts to my iphone. Seems that notes were cut off. Can I do anything to expand the note part of my contact? Otherwise I feel that I will lose them when I sync both ways

OK.  Seems like the iPhone Contacts App WILL allow 2 different numbers with the mobile label & both get the messaging link.
However, MS Outlook will only allow ONE number with the mobile label.  Hmm, I'll have to try adding a field label in Outlook that matches a custom label in my iPhone & see if they sync.  Still not sure I can assign a new field label in Outlook that will reliably get a Messaging link in iPhone Contacts App
neokrelic, my wife has a simple clam shell cell phone that does not have iMessage app & when (in my iPhone) I assign it to "mobile," it receives the Messaging link.  Maybe I'm wrong but I believe iMessage can send a text to any cell phone that can receive a text.
           I'm pretty sure I've used it to send texts to Android phones

  • My young kids have ipads and since I updated the software, but they have their own icloud account, predictive text within their messages shows all my contacts from my iphone but the contacts are not listed as their contacts, how do I stop this?

    My young kids have ipads and since I updated the software, but they have their own icloud account, predictive text within their messages shows all my contacts from my iphone but the contacts are not listed as their contacts, how do I stop this?

    I have deleted the iCloud account under my name on their iPads and replaced with their ones. Apple support said yesterday I needed to click the small 'I' by each name as it came up in the TO box and remove it. After doing rid for each contact under each letter of the alphabet it should remove them from latest contacts. Having done this, although I could not remove groups I had sent, I am not convinced they will not return once I have written a few texts, any ideas?

  • HT201272 I've got songs on my iPad that are not on my iPhone which I want but for some reason they won't go on over Icloud, help!?

    I've got songs on my iPad that are not on my iPhone which I want but for some reason they won't go on over Icloud, help!?

    perfect. ok do the following:
    settings > mail, contacts, calendars > go into the exchange account. You should have an email in the account field...[email protected] or [email protected], etc.... I am assuming you don't remember the password to this exchange account so once you know the email, you can go to email providers site and click on forgot password and you will go through the steps to get a new password. Once you do this, you will need to go back into your "exchange account " and the field that has the exchange email > touch the > to open settings. Change the password to your new password you got from above. Once you do this, you can add the exchange account to your ipad and all of your contacts will sync to both devices.
    Please confirm.

    I have problems syncing my new iPhone 5 to iTunes. I read somewhere to disable iPhotos and that has allowed me to sync but my photos are not on my iPhone. How can I fix this?

    Try updating to iPhoto 9.4.1. If it's not appearing in your Software Update yet, try updating using a .dmg installer downloaded from the following page on the Apple website:

    A good read. Have you done anything at all to resolve your problem. Reset? Restore?
    By the way - "your products"... nobody here produced the iPhone, we are all just users. Apple is not here.

  • HT204053 How do I download contacts from my iPhone 4 to the cloud so I can upgrade to the 5?   I have several contacts on my phone that are not in my yahoo contact list.   The cloud onky has the contacts that have been entered into yahoo.

    How do I download my contacts from my iPhone 4 to the cloud.   I have several contacts that I entered on my phone...they are not in yahoo.   I do not want to loose them when I upgrade to a 5

    To transfer your data and settings to a new device see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109.  You can also use an app like My Contacts Backup to back up the contacts on your phone as attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  If you need to, you can later open this email on your new phone and tap the attachment to import your contacts.

  • Imessage on Mac does not sync my Iphone contacts

    Hi,
    when I want to use Imessage on my Macbookpro, I cannot find the contacts that are on my Iphone. They do not appear in the "Contacts" although the Icloud option is on both on my computer and my Iphone. But it seems not to sync.
    Can someone help me ?
    Thank you

    Hi,
    Odd stuff first.
    In the Contacts App > Card menu > Show My Card - is this your Info ?
    Can you compare the Names that do show in Messages with those that do not in the Contacts App ?
    For instance do the ones using Country Codes as part of the telephone Number Show up but ones that only use the local number (no Country code) do not ?
    If this s the case check the System Preferences > Date and Time including the Time Zone as everything is time stamped.
    Next go to the Messages app > Preferences > Accounts > iMessages Account > Details Button (you will be asked to sign in again).
    Does this list the "right" Country or region (it is this that will add the county code to plain numbers and allow your Apple ID (or others) to work properly.
    In System Preferences > Network > Advanced Button > DNS tab does it list DNS servers that are not on your LAN ?
    Quite often it lists the router (192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x and occasionally 172.16.x.x through to 172.32.255.255) rather than external DNS servers.
    It "should" show the ones the router lists in a greyed out form.
    If not, copy the DNS servers across (from the router) or use Public ones.
    If that does not  work use th Finder > Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key and select the Library that appears.
    Navigate to Preferences.
    Find com.apple.iMessages.bag.plist and drag it to the Trash then Restart Messages.
    This will force the app to reconnect to the iMessages Servers (and as there is a group of them you may well end up with a new server)

  • Problem with Signing in itunes with my id. After signing in it does Not Show the Apple id and they are asking 3 Times if i wanna download Songs I have already bought but which are not on this iphone

    Dear community, I'm experiencing a problem since 2 days, that if I sign in in my iTunes account with my Apple ID on my iPhone it doesn't show at the end if scrolling down the ID details and credit anymore. If I try to download songs I bought once but which are not on this device anymore, it asks me 3 times for the ID and password. I fill it in but at the end nothing happens. I see only in the middle a moving symbol.
    What can I do? Apple ID and password are correct . I canceled all settings but same as before.
    Many thanks in advance.

  • Songs in itunes match are not on my iphone

    I have recently started to trial iTunes Match and with 20k+ carefully managed songs with all artwork intact, I am confused and perplexed on why some songs are not uploaded to the Cloud; why some artwork is then missing in Match; and why songs showing in Match are not transferred correctly on my iPhone nor iPad (they are listed, but light grey and not playable). Any suggestions on what I need to do or is this an Apple issue?

    First, you need to let the inital scan, match and upload process in iTunes complete before you enable the service on your iOS devices. This is the best practice. Once the initial scan is complete then all the music will be availabe on the iOS devices.
    Second, in Song view in iTunes enable the iCloud Status column so you can see how the service has classified all the music in your library. If successfully processed all the tracks shoud be either "purchased," "matched," or "uploaded." Any other status indicates a problem with that track that will need to be sorted out, and it won't be availble on the iOS devices.
    Third, be patient with the artwork. It can take some time for all the artwork to download to the iOS devices. It isn't instant. But eventually all the artwork will show up.

  • I am constantly told by Itunes that 107 items are not synching from my contacts. This is a message from the Conflict Resolver that appears whenever I synch. I try to resolve the synch and a text message pops up telling me it could not find the synch serve

    I am constantly told by Itunes that 107 items are not synching from my Ipod Touch to/from Outlook Contacts. I try to resolve the issue and eventually a message pops up saying it could not be completed because it could not find the sync server. This started after one of the updates a couple of months ago. If anyone has found a similar problem and resolved it I would appreciate any assistance.
    Thanks

  • I have digital handbooks in iBooks on my iPad yet they are not on my iPhone (3G).  iCloud is working with everything else, photos, calendar, etc.  Anyone know why?

    I have digital handbooks in iBooks on my iPad yet they are not showing in iBooks on my 3G iPhone.  I have the iCloud completely set up - everything else syncs.  Anyone have any idea why they're not showing on both devices?

    You still have to sync them or download them to your phone.  iBooks will sync your bookmarks, and your collections (which are they are organized when you tap "Collections" on your iPad) using iCloud, but it will not transfer copies of the actual books or pdfs to your other devices.

  • SMS messages are not saved on iphone on ios 7.0.4

    After updating  iPhone 4S to ios 7.0.4  it was a week before I realized that there was a problem with sending and receiving messages. They appeared to be hanging at about 90% when sending and would stay as "sending" even when delivered (to  the other iphone I have). An incoming SMS wouldn't open, i.e., showed no content. Tried all the suggestions re resetting network settings, etc etc etc but nothing worked. I have done a complete restore of the ios and I have sent and received a SMS successfully but they are not being saved. Sent message has disappeared and incoming message is read but isn't there later, just disappears. Vanishes. I like to keep some messages to refer back to sometimes while others I am happy to delete almost immediately.
    Is this a problem or is it a "feature" of ios 7?

    Hi,
    So you are unable to access Notification Centre and Control Centre from all screens including the home screen?
    You can try activating AssistiveTouch by "Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch > AssistiveTouch: ON".
    In some cases activating this feature has known to fix this issue (whilst the feature is active). I cannot think of any other immediate fixes. Hopefully Apple will address this issue soon in a forthcoming update to iOS 7.
    Hope this solves your issue!

  • HT2486 birthday are not saving in my contacts? What am I doing wrong.  I always have put in birthday before with no problems

    Birthday are not saving in some of my contacts? What am I doing wrong.  I always have put in birthday before with no problems.  Some contacts it works and others do not?  help me.

    Arnis and Jeff,
    Thank you both very much for your assistance.  I was able to figure out why the Adobe Application Manager kept failing on installing the patches.  Idiot me didn't unzip them first.  Once I unzipped the patch files, the installer worked fine.  Both patches are now successfully installed; my FM version is now 12.0.2..
    To answer some of your questions:
    Yes, I have administrator privileges on my PC.
    Yes, I had all of the files in the book opened when I generated and/or updated the LOR file.  So that was not the issue.
    With the patches installed, I opened a book and all of its files.  I updated the LOR and all works fine – it gives me all of the Imported Graphic references. So there must have been an issue with that release of FM12 (12.0.0.329), which was fixed with the patches.
    Again, thank you both for your help!
    Best regards,
    Beverly
