BB will not Display Incoming Calls Contact Info

Hi there,
I am a new user to the Black Berry world, and have encountered a problem I hope can be fixed.
I have 84 contacts in my Adress Book in my Black Berry 8900, all with 10 digit phone numbers linked to each.
I do not pay for caller ID through Rogers Canada (Just to let you know).
The problem I am having is that, when one of my contacts call me, even though I have there phone number in my contact list their name or picture does not appear. I simply get a pop up saying Incoming Call Unknown Number...
I've done some searching online and found that in some other black berries people had this fixed by turning off their content protection in secruity>General settings> Content Protection.
This however did not work for my phone.
I have had a Sony Ericsson W580i which was capable of doing this simple feature from over a year ago and was on the Rogers service for that phone too.
I just got off the phone with Rogers and they are claiming that without Caller ID it is impossible to do this simple feature on a Black Berry.
Hope I can have my issue solved here!
Thanks in advance!
Nick 

Well, unless I'm missing it, none of those posts referred to not having the CallerID service provisioned on the line...rather, they seemed to be discussing getting callerID to display from contacts in the device address book versus the SIM. Personally, I have no use for my SIM...I'm on VZW, though...not sure if other devices or other carriers can handle a BB with no SIM. Probably not.

  • Dialer not displaying incoming / outgoing contact ...

    Hello Guys,
    On my Lumia 920, the phone dialer will not display the name of the incoming or outgoing contacts if they are saved in international format.
    So if my country code is for example +961 and X  number is saved as +961-x-xxxyyy, when X calls me from x-xxx-yyy, his name is not shown !!
    I keep my contacts in international format since I travel a lot but when I'm home, none of the local country number saved on my phone are recognized.
    Kindly advise.
    Thanks.

    Hi I'm facing the same problem with my Lumia 920; the caller's name does not show when saved in international format. I never faced this issue with other phones. What's the solution? N.B. I have set my country in the regions settings and have international call assist ON

  • My iPhone 4s will not display my saved contact names anymore. What to do?

    All of a sudden, my iPhone 4s will not display any of my saved contacts names or pictures.  It only shows the number.  However, it will show my facebook contacts names and info.  I currently have iOS 7.1.1.  I I've tried turning my phone off and them back on and still nothing.  How do I get it to show my contacts again?

  • Desktop will not display Calendar or Contacts

    I got a new Centro, installed the Palm software as instructed and performed a HotSync when instructed. Initially the Desktop showed all my contacts and calendar but would not let me edit my contacts only add new ones. After shutting down the computer and restarting it the Desktop no longer displays icons for the calendar or contacts. I performed another HotSync which was successful but still could not access the calendar or contacts via the Desktop.
    I unisntalled the Palm software and drivers and reinstalled everything from scratch with the same result. I uninstalled everthing again and downloaded everything from the Palm web site and reinstalled everything again with the same results.
    My Centro still has all my contacts and calendar info. Any idea how I can resolve this problem to manage them from the Desktop?
    Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

    Have Palm engineers solved this?  My version of the story:  Vista Home Premium: Palm Access 6.2.2 Desktop running happily.  Then after a hibernation, I open Palm Desktop and get only Media.  No amount of uninstall/Reinstall changes this result. Even using Revco uninstall.  So, how can I regainDesktop and sync to it?

  • Win7: Skype update will not display some favorite ...

    These non-displaying contacts are stored on my computer.  I can find them if I search SKYPE.  But they will not display with my contacts.
    I wish Microsoft would not "improve" Skype!  I have spent hours going around in circles trying to pose this question. I hope somebody in the community has the answer to this problem.

    Thanks for your thoughts. Here's what I've learned. The browsers display correctly for the new user after SafeBoot. I removed all startup items, to no avail. Removed all fonts from the new user account, nothing. Removed all fonts from the admin user's library, nothing. Then I removed all fonts from the HD library, and that fixed it for the new user. Now I just have to figure out which one it was.
    So in summary, a bad font in the HD library was affecting Safari and Chrome (but not Firefox) in new user accounts, but not in the admin user's account. Nice. D

  • My works ip4 will not display contact names in my fav's and only has stored email contact addresses in contacts

    My works IP4s has developed a problem. my Favourite contacts appear as numbers instead of names. if i try to re-create they will not store. also my contacts in the contacts have gone leaving only those with an email address. I have tried shutting down etc and re-inserting sim. but problem persists.

    This is inevitably caused by duplicate entry, (many posts already exist) check settings in options in contacts and make sure memory in use is phone memory. Then you need to go through contacts and make sure you don't have more than one name attached to each number  .
    Good Luck

  • HP Officejet Pro 8625 - Will not acknowledge incoming fax while in sleep mode

    HP Officejet Pro 8625 - Will not acknowledge incoming fax while in sleep mode. The sender receives an error "no answer".
    When I call the fax number, if I touch the screen it will wake up immediately to receive the fax.
    Printing from the computer while in sleep mode works fine.
    Please advise.  Im missing important faxes and can only set sleep mode to a maximum of 15 mins, so I have an alarm set to touch my machine every 15 mins. sigh...
    Thank you,

    Hi Willia,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see when your HP Officejet Pro 8625 enters sleep mode, you are unable to receive any incoming faxes. The senders will receive a 'no answer' error. I understand your printer will wake up from sleep mode if you send a print job.
    First let's go ahead and make sure the OJ 8625 is plugged directly into a wall outlet, using a power bar or surge protector can cause the printer to lose basic functionality over time. To get a better understanding take a look here: Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector
    Now, I would like you to update your printers Firmware, click on the link below and follow the on screen instructions:
    HP Officejet Pro 8620/8625 Firmware Update
    Are you now able to receive incoming faxes when the OJ 8625 is in sleep mode? If not, I would like you to contact our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

  • Why is my iPhone 4S not showing my caller Id info while I'm a call

    Why is my iPhone 4S not showing my caller Id info while I'm a call?

    As in the manual page 49:
    Call forwarding, call waiting, and caller ID
    The following information applies only to GSM networks. For CDMA networks, contact your carrier for information about enabling and using these features. See support.apple.com/kb/HT4515.
    Turn call forwarding on or off: Go to Settings > Phone > Call Forwarding. The Call Forwarding icon ( ) appears in the status bar when call forwarding is on. You must be in range of the cellular network when you set iPhone to forward calls, or calls won’t be forwarded. FaceTime calls are
    not forwarded.
    Turn call waiting on or off: Go to Settings > Phone > Call Waiting. If you’re on a call and call waiting is turned off, incoming calls go directly to voicemail.
    Turn caller ID on or off: Go to Settings > Phone > Show My Caller ID.

  • Newly created images will not display in Firefox 8 for Mac. Same images appear in other browsers. Why?

    1. Specific new images are uploaded but will not display in Firefox 8 on my Mac with OS 10.6.8. (Does appear in other browsers, e.g., Chrome and Opera, and appears on Firefox 8 for PC.) Also, other images on the page display.
    2. I have cleared cache, cookies, etc., in Recent History, and restarted both application and computer.
    3. I've tried creating GIF, JPG and PNG, but none show on the page in Firefox on my Mac. I can see the offending image in other browsers such as Chrome on the same computer, and on Firefox on PC. Offending pages are in both PHP and HTML: http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/advertisers.php and http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/advertising_freedom_montessori.html
    Image links: http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/images/advertisers/freedom.png and http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/images/advertisers/Freedom_Montessori_bizcard.jpg

    You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
    *Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
    *Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    *Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • Adobe Illustrator file will not display correctly when logged in as a user

    I am working with an Adobe Illustrator CS2 file that will open and display correctly if I log in as Administrator, but will not display correctly if I am logged on as a user. The error message is that there is not enough memory to display the file correctly and I am forced into preview mode. The user Home folder is on a server. Other than this, I have made certain that the criteria for opening the file match under both interfaces. I have opened the AI CS2 file on other Macs and it opens fine. I conclude that the problem is with the user Home folder, but beyond that, I'm stumped. Any help will be appreciated.

  • IPod 5G Will Not Display iTunes Videos (Must Restart), All Photos Distorted

    I own a 30GB iPod 5G which has never worked satisfactorily after I purchased the unit last year. In fact, after several trips last year to the Genius Bar at the Apple 5th Avenue store in New York, Apple replaced my unit with a new (or refurbished) model and the problems diminished somewhat. Within the last week I noticed however that my iPod will not display photos without severe distortion and will not display videos downloaded from iTunes at all (the unit requires a restart if I attempt to play these videos). I had taken the unit to an Apple mini-store at a local (Iselin, NJ) BestBuy and, after he entered the serial number into the support form, was told by an Apple badge employee that my warranty for the unit did not expire until Sept. 28 (which was the date I received the replacement iPod). When I took my unit to the 5th Avenue Apple store, I was informed by a Genius Bar employee (Jay) that my warranty expired on July 6 and Apple would not perform warranty service nor could I purchase the extended warranty. He further informed me that Apple badge employees at Best Buy and CompUSA are not “really” Apple employees.
    He wouldn’t call a manager after I requested to speak to one. The only recourse he could offer me was to call the AppleCare 1-800 number, which I immediately did while still in the store. The person at AppleCare (after asking for the serial number) informed me that my warranty didn’t expire until Sept. 28 and if I wanted to I could purchase the extended warranty anytime until that date. I chose not to give my credit card information while standing in the midst of hundreds of customers, but I called the following day (July 14) and was told by the attendant who took my call that my warranty had expired on July 6 and there was nothing he could do to help me.
    Evidently, although I have purchased 11 iPods over the course of the last year as gifts for family members (plus 4 speaker-docks plus more iTunes gift certificates than I can count), I do not count as a valued Apple customer. Could someone at Apple please prove me wrong?

  • My Databases Panel will not display my Databases?

    The issue "This server behavior requires a Cold Fusion Data
    Source" happens to me periodically when DW crashes after a week or
    two of non-stop use and all of my Databases "disappear" under the
    Database Panel? DW thinks that I have no Databases setup under
    Administrator? This is driving me crazy.
    I can open another Site and it's database's appear in the DW
    panel fine, but the Site I was under when DW crashed will not
    display in the Database Panel even though all of the webpages that
    access those databases work fine so I know it's not a CF server
    issue?
    I have tried the Site/Advanced/Remove Connection Scripts but
    that does not work.
    Sometimes if I rebuild the Site under Manage Sites, they will
    show back up? Other times I have reinstalled but that is not an
    option this time.
    This issue seems to be related to a DW & CF connection
    only? Any ideas or solutions?
    ps: Ben Forta, I remember your comment in the CFWACK chapter
    about DW's refusal to display the Databases unless a proper page is
    open in DW. While all of my pages are definitely .CFM with Datasets
    & querys, this looks like it's related to DW.
    Thanks,
    jlig

    Once again, I opened up DW, created & saved a new .CFM
    page, clicked on Insert/Data Objects/Recordset and DW pops up a box
    saying:
    Before inserting this object, please do the following:
    1. Create a site for this file. (checked)
    2) Choose a document type. (checked)
    3) Ste up the site's testing server. (checked)
    4) Specify the RDS login info on CF server. (checked)
    5) Create a CF data source.
    6) Create a Recordset.
    Obviously, I have already set up a CF data source, and can
    verify them in the CF Admin page.
    What causes DW to "lose access" to my Data sources?
    I would appreciate any suggestions and help.
    Thanks,
    cw
