Bug in Contacts

For SOme reason since the unable to install apps has been fixed I now can't add contacts on my Pre.  I get the Error message. "There was an error saving the contact. Please try again. I press OK Then  the message comes up  This Contact could not be saved. I press Ok again and It takes me straight back to contact list.
If I go into Google mail and add the contact there. It syncs to my contacts fine though.
Anyone have any ideas?

Hello and welcome to the forums;
You could try removing the google account from all apps (email, contacts, calendar, messaging), restart your device, then readd the google account to email.
Once the sync is finished, make sure the google account is set for your default account and try to add a new contact.
Let us know if this helps.

  • Bug in contacts? (Zen Mic

    Hi!
    I was looking for a way to save some lyrics in my Zen Micro, and I thought that would be a good idea to save them in the "Notes" area of the contact. You know, Start > Run > wab.exe, create a new contact, and in the "Other" tab, you write whatever you want in the "Notes" box. Then you can sync the contacts with Creative MediaSource.
    But (there's always a but) the Zen Micro does something wrong, and from a point of the lyrics it shows lots of "\n", characters that look like boxes, and some other rubbish.
    For example, I tried to copy the lyrics of "Vertigo", that song of U2 ( http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/u2/vertigo.html ) but from "But you give me something" it shows those strange characters. Could somebody else confirm this? Could this be a bug?
    I know that using Contacts to store lyrics is a bit weird, but what do you want? I can't store text notes directly in my Zen Micro! ... *hint* *hint* Creative? Are you there?
    Thanks!
    EDIT:
    I'm editing to correct someting. For synchronising the Zen Micro I use the option "Sync music and Outlook data between PC and the device" (or something like that, it's in Spanish) in the Zen Micro Media Explorer. I guess it's the same.Message Edited by melado on 02-06-2005 :53 PM

    Following your advices (thanks!), I wrote some text in the "Other" box of a contact, but the same thing happened. The text appears correctly until a part, after there it appears with \ and strange things, and it doesn't appear complete.
    Maybe I could try with "Tasks"... but I don't have Outlook
    Any idea?
    Btw, I have seen that program in the forums of Nomadness.net, but I don't think it's a solution.

  • Bug for contact's "Edit Birthday"

    I noticed that there is a software bug for the "Edit Birthday" Section in the Contact. If the date is to be set at year 1982 and January, there is no way you can change it to any other day other then the 1st. Am I the only one encountering this problem?
    Or I am not alone?
    Is there anyway to make known of this issue to Apple to rectify this issue?

    Contact info is designed to be synced with a supported application on your computer. Since you have a Mac, this can be with the Address Book application which is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences. If you haven't synced with the Address Book on your Mac and you haven't used it for contact info on your Mac - it is empty, before syncing contact info enter one contact in the Address Book - make one up if needed which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt when syncing contact info, which you want to select.
    You can include a backup of your Address Book data on your Mac with the backup of all other important data on your Mac stored on an external drive or some other external media used for backup purposes only.
    Although contact info available on your iPhone is included with your iPhone's backup, it isn't a good idea to depend on your iPhone's backup alone for this because your iPhone's backup includes other data, and your current situation is another reason.

  • [BUG] Editing contacts with italian language set

    This behaviors happens only when WebOS is set to Italian language:
    1) when editing an existing contact, it shows up as a blank one, as if I was creating a new contact from scratch. Actually, the contact data is there, but somehow hidden! When changing it (so, actually, writing back from scratch), it does change, but can't see the original contents.
    2) When creating a new contact, I can't add a phone number, while I can add other items (email, address, URL, etc). Saving it and then editing it, goes back to point 1. Thus, the only way to save a phone number is dialing it, then saving it from the Phone app.
    I have an European GSM Pre, WebOS 1.4.1

    First, when you do create a new contact (in Italian), what happens when you try to type in the Phone Number field? Does the cursor appear, or is the field grayed out? Does nothing happen when you tap on the "+ New Phone Number ..." field?
    As long as I tap it, the field become dark grey, as it was somehow activated, but when I release my finger it comes back to normal and I can't type in it (no cursor).
    Besides that, I can add a new contact. Other fields are working fine, but in the Email address and IM address field, the cursor doesn't appear on the very left (beginning) of the field. It stays almost in the middle, as it's keeping room for a button, and actually if I click on the left, it pops up something like an empty list or menu. Besides this glitch, I can edit those fields.
    By the way, the phone number field is the only one that is 2 lines long (in italian). I don't know if this means something, but maybe this screws the interface up.....
    Second, what happens if you change your language selection from Italian to English, then try to edit an existing contact? Are you able to see existing text then?
    Yes; it works perfectly.
    Also, try creating a new contact with your language selection set to English. Are you able to enter a phone number at that point? How about editing a contact created with language set to English while still set to English. Can you see existing data within the contact editing screen?
    Yes, everything works fine, as long as english (US) language is set.
    Next, switch back to Italian and view the contact created under English. Can you edit existing information without it blanking out?
    I can't see the existing information; I can't edit any phone number obviously, because the field can't be activated. If I try to overwrite data by writing on those field that I know they contain data, it doesn't work: name of the contact doesn't change, and editing the email address (ie. writing it back from scratch) adds another address.
    Hope this helps,
    Stefano

    i then went to contacts- picked one - clicked on an address - and again it mapped it fine
    just like it did when i was on 1.1.2

  • Bug synchronisation contacts outlook avec iphone.

    Bonjour,
    quand je synchronise mon iphone avec outlook, tous mes contacts (qui sont classés en plusieurs catégories (professionnel, personnel, ami...)) se retrouve tous mélangé dans "contacts (tous)". Pourtant les groupes apparaissent dans mon Iphone mais avec 0 contacts dedans, ils sont tous uniquement dans "contacts (tous)".
    Quelqu'un à une réponse à ce problème svp ? Déja difficile à expliquer donc encore + difficile à trouver une réponse sur le net...
    Merci de votre aide
    Vadim

    How do you mean this?
    Under "settings -> mail, contact, calenda -> contacts" I can't find any option concerning Outlook.
    Can you explain your hint, please?

  • Silly bug in Contacts-least expected of iPhone

    guess what!?
    I've installed iOS 7 on my dads iphone5.
    and after he inserted his old sim that he used to use with nokia E 72, he saw the contacts all jumbled. first name replaced with last. last with first. I mena they were all interchanged. That's ok. I get that, that's due to the format difference.
    But, when he strated to exchange first name with last name.
    example: there was this particular contact called
    contact in H
    hari chinatadepalli
    he changes the name to
    chinatadepalli hari
    so whats supposed to happen now?
    the contact has to be transportes to alphabet 'C'. isn't it?
    it stays in the same **** 'H' alphabet.
    My father found it so inconvenient. You least expect such an inconvenience using an iPhone.
    The worst of the lowest end phones are effective at dealing such contact name changes.. what's wrong with iPhone?

    Have you tried the settings.
    Goto settings>mail, contacts, calendars and under contacts, there is a setting for sort order and display order, change those and see if it works.

  • How to contact Apple for Garage Band iPad bugs?

    I looked around a little bit, but couldn't find a place to report Garage Band bugs or contact Apple support for Garage Band iPad. I wanted to notify Apple of the problem that bluetooth audio output in Garage Band does not work. (Yes I am aware of the latency, however, this would still appear to be a bug in Garage Band if a user has explicitly set audio output to bluetooth. Not all applications fo Garage Band require zero latency.)

  • Q10 Contacts: bugs

    Purchased a new Q10 and hooked it up to my home laptop to upload my contacts and calendar from Outlook.  Everything looked fine.  The next day, received a message to update the operation system software which I did.  After the update, my contacts linked together from Outlook, Facebook and LinkedIn.  However they also linked some contacts together that should not be linked.  In some cases merging the contacts together with different information.  I removed both Facebook and LinkedIn account and pushed my contacts back down for Outlook and deleted the "Local Contacts," however, that still did not stop my linking issue.  Any suggestions?
    Steven

    Hi, as I don't have a FB account active (as said - first action was to remove the app and restart), and since I created new contacts on the BBQ10 afterwards w/o any further interaction with any provider or account or anything for which I was not able to change any dates on BBQ10 until I re-added the Facebook app - I guess the topic is quite clear.
    I cannot confirm that the issue appears solely on the FB item, as there are no FB items. One of the contacts I created was a fantasy name containing plenty of x and y and digits, so the likelyhood of this being an active FB account was too small (though impossible for me to double-check, as I don't have an account there).
    A contact in BB is a contact. Yes, there might be automatic interlinkage with social networks, but this is exactly what I'm critizising, as long as this linkage is mandatory to be able to manipulate newly created contacts on BB.
    So to be more precise:
    1. Remove FB app, remove any accounts like for mail providers (Yahoo, GMX and others) and restart
    2. Create new contact in BBQ10 with birthday -> not showing up in calendar. Issue #1.
    3. Edit newly created contacts' birthday and save -> not saving. "old" entry remains. Issue #2.
    4. Adding FB app and edit newly created contacts' birthday and save -> saving. Still not showing up in calendar. Issue #1 remains, issue #2 gone. Which leads me to the fact that the birthdays are synchronized differently than the rest of the data, which can be changed with or w/o FB app on BB10. This is where I see a bug in CONTACTS app.

  • Contacts app not finding names in Exchange 2010

    Contacts app not finding names in Exchange 2010 server
    This is weird, could be a bug in 10.8.2, not sure, want to see if anyone else is seeing this.
    Mountain Lion 10.8.2
    Exchnage account created for: Mail, Contacts, Calendars. All looks good there.
    Cannot lookup names / email addresses in Contacts Global Address List (GAL) or in Mail app.
    Can delete the Exchnage account in Contacts and re-add it, and it will work.
    Once Contacts quits and is re-luanched, no dice. No connection, just spins and spins.
    Eventually Contacts app crashes, (not responding).
    Outlook 2011 works just fine, seems an issue with Contacts.
    Thanks,
    John K

    I thinkk this is a bug in Contacts app,  7.1 (1167),  in MT Lion.
    If one inputs the actual AD domain controllers dns name, for the Internal Server, Contacts app does the lookup successfully and pretty quick.
    This is how it is on Outlook 2011 BTW. Directoy Service in OL 2011 is the AD domain controller FQDN, not the Exchnage server.
    thanks,
    jk

  • Bug OSX lion

    Since I havent got a Developer account I can't contact Apple directly with the bug I found.
    My MBP (early 2011) is protected by a password, as in the system prefs --> security is set.
    (Require password 5 minutes after sleep or screen saver begins)
    I used cmd+tab when I needed to fill in the password and a app bought from the app store started. (I bought it several weeks ago, never used cmd+tab before when I needed to fill in my password)
    Hopfully it's a known bug.. otherwise could someone report it.
    Regards,

    If you believe it to be a Lion bug then contact Apple
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
    Otherwise as a brody says, I would be contacting the developers.
    Good Luck
