Call Forwarding Number on 3G Not Retained as it was on Original iPhone

On the original iPhone I could turn call forwarding on and off and the number I had set to have calls forwarded to was retained when I turned forwarding back on. With the 3G the number to be forwarded to needs to re-entered each time I turn call forwarding back on.
I called Apple support and also spoke to AT&T support but they were not able to provide any useful information as to why this is or if the feature is not available any longer on the 3G.
Does anyone have any info on this and/or know of a way to have the forward to number "stick"?

I have a new iPhone 3G and I have the exact same question. I used to have a Palm 750 (Mobile 6), and it had that feature, but on my new 3G, I have to reenter the call forward number every time, unless I am missing sometime. Seems ridiculous. It should maintain a list of at least 3-5 recently call forwarded numbers, as most persons would only have a select few numbers that they would ever call forward. Also, my Palm 750 had a special icon on the face page showing that I had the call forwarding feature turned on. That was a nice reminder, if I left that building and forgot to un-forward my calls.

I have a 2011 tahoe. My bluetooth functioned properly until I updated my iPhone. Now the iPhone connects to the Tahoe but when I try to call a number it does not work. Either it cals the number and has no outgoing or incoming sound or it just says it iis unable to complete the call.

I would check with the Auto dealer where the vehicle was purchased to check and see when the bluetooth software was last updated on your vehicle. With the vehicle being a 2011 and if the software has not been updated since the dropping of IOS 7 then obviously there will be software incompatibilities.
Good luck.

Call forwarding number hacked

I am an expat living and working overseas and have a Skype call forwarding # that routes calls to my international number. Over the last 2 weeks I have received 3 phone calls from angry people across the country (Georgia, California, and Utah) claiming they've received a phone call from my Skype # claiming it's from the IRS and they owe money and to contact them immediately.
I, of course, did not make these calls and am concerned my Skype # has been "hacked" which could lead to worse identity theft. I tried to contact Skype / MSFT but the chat help discussion was a disaster and the person obviously 1] wasn't a native English speaker, and 2] did not come close to understanding my issue nor solve it.
I have no idea where to turn to look in to this issue, or how to prevent it from happening again. Would welcome any suggestions!

Deactivate the call forwarding
     *73
     press 'send' and wait for tone/message
     press 'end'
Then reactivate call forwarding
     *72
     enter # where calls are to be forwarded
     press 'send' and wait for tone/message
     press 'end'

Call Forward to PSTN numbers not working

We have a CUCM version 8.6. The call farward to internal extensions are working fine. But, to the PSTN numbers it is now working. We are able to call the PSTN numbers without any issue. Can somebody help us on this?

Hi Siva,
The most likely cause for this type of issue is the CSS that is applied @ the Call Forward All level on
the DN config page. Check out the CFWDALL CSS to make sure they are set with a level with
access to PSTN numbers
Cheers!

My iphone5 will not back up what was on my iphone 4s!!!

For some reason both are on differing iOS versions (iPhone 4s is on 6.1.3 and 5 is on the latest 6.1.4)
When I go to restore from back up for my 5 it literally only restores the bare basics-no contacts, no profiles, no photos or anything
I have the 4s backed up so what is going wrong
Any help appreciated

I was trying to back it up from iTunes in spite of just backing up my 4S an hour earlier. My 4S has 14gb of data but for some reason none of the info gets backed up and sure enough only about 3gb is used on the 5
I'm going to try backing up from the cloud...

Call Forwarding with Skype Number

I have a skype number and a couple questions. I have searched the forums and did not see this question answered.
I have an unlocked iphone and travel througout a different country every month or so. Each new country means a new sim card and a new number.
My question is: Will purchasing the skype world subscription cover the costs of each country (as long as the country is covered in the plan)? It states that the subscription only covers mobiles in some countries and landlines in others. So if I purchase the unlimited world (and assuming I am in one of the countries covered) will this be all I need to receive unlimited forwarded calls to my mobile?
I hope this isnt too confusing. Thanks!

Hi, Salsy20 and Joeriba, and welcome to the Community,
Please check your call forwarding settings; Skype does not determine when to activate call forwarding based upon the number of rings; it is based upon an increment of time. For example, in the screen shot, below, the default increment is 10 seconds (circled in orange pen). You would need to determine and then experiment with how many rings = [x] seconds, or set to 0. Remember, if you make any changes to any settings, click Save!

IPhone question: when I receive a call from someone who is not in my contacts and I then decide to add that number to my contacts, is there a way to put it directly into a specific group?

After receiving a call on my iPhone 4s I decide I want to add their number to a specific group in my contacts using the "Create New Contact" option. When I do this it only is established in the "All Contacts" group. Is there a way to add it directly to a specific group?

CUCM 8.6 - Call Forward All Doesn't Work With DN In Hunt Group

Hello,
I'm trying to make a hunt group that's sole purpose is to dial out to our Help Desk member's cell phone (on-call after hours). The idea is that we want the hunt group to broadcast the call to the on-call engineers. Whoever picks up first takes the call.
At least that's the idea now. They may want to change that to - ring primary on-call cell phone, if no answer ring secondary on-call engineer.
The target cell phones will change every week and I wanted to give the supervisor a means of changing the numbers through the ccmuser page.
I created two DNs and placed them in a hunt group, each with call forward all to a cell phone number.
It seems that the hunt group ignores the call forward all setting and that is by design (https://supportforums.cisco.com/document/9126/cisco-callmanager-call-forward-all-cfa-does-not-work-if-line-hunt-group).
Does anyone else have any suggestions on how to accomplish this?

That's correct, what you're seeing is WAD, this topic has been discussed plenty of times before, the only option you have is SNR

Call Forwarding: Change timeout before forwarding ...

Hi,
I've just set up call forwarding with a Skype number and I'm wondering if there is any way to change the number of times it rings before being diverted to my mobile? People are having to wait too long for me to answer and most people are hanging up before I can answer the call...

8330 call forwarding icon won't disappear

I have a 8330 and I cannot get the call forwarding icon to disappear. Last week I had to forward my number to my office number. I then got a new phone number on this curve. I can make and receive call normally. But the call forwarding icon is still on the top of the screen. When I go into the call forwarding menu it shows calls being forwarded to my office. If I try to change that to "do not forward" the phone tries to make a call but I get the "Your call cannot be completed as dialed". I have also tried to change the call forward number but same result as above. Anyone have any ideas?!?!?

Lack of call forwarding options

When will we get options for call forwarding on an I phone. It's crazy my cheap flip phone allowed me the option to call forward if I did not answer. The great I phone call forwards right away to the forwarded number.

(USA only) Google Voice is probably the leader in Call-forwarding
Call forwarding on the iPhone requires a special dialing code to be entered to trigger the alternate number.
Ask/Google for your carrier's methods for doing so.

Call forwarding with subscription

I just bought a 3 month subscripton. Does this mean that I also have to buy additional skype credit for the forwarding to work. I am trying to ave my calls forwarded and it is not working?

If you are forwarding an online number to a mobile phone it has to be covered by your subscription or it will cost you credit. If you have a skype app on your mobile it should ring when someone calls you on skype. Example the other day I was away from my computer, and a friend called me from asia. My cell phone rang as I was logged on to skype through my cell phone. If I am at the computer both ring, and I can answer either one I want to. You cannot forward to a phone w/o an online number.

Is there a way to change the settings on my iPhone so I cannot receive calls from people who are not in my contacts?

Okay so I barely use the calling/phone app (the one that comes on it) on my iPhone but most of the calls I get are from random people who I do not know who have the wrong number asking for the same people! I block them all I can but they're not always the same number there's different numbers all the time it's extremely annoying and driving me crazy, the one person left a voice mail again asking for the same person so I called them back and they denied they ever called I kept telling them I got a voicemail from that number and they kept saying no one called from that number. I literally cannot take this anymore. I remember seeing somewhere when I was setting up my phone where I can set it so people cannot call you if they're not in your contacts list. Is there a way to do that? If there is could you please let me know and how to do so? I seriously really need this please. I have an iPhone 4s that's on ios 7.1.2 if that helps any. Thanks so much.
