Can't find contacts on N95 8GB
Hi there. Just got my new N95 8GB -2 & when i add a new contact i can find it by scrolling all the way down but not by one letter. eg I have entered a contact just as M but when i go contacts> M , i get a list of everything with M starting at A!! eg Alan M,Bob m & so on -How do i set up to get it (1st letter) as 1st choice as with all my other phones? Have tried First name or surname but makes no difference......... Can anyone help?
Not giving excuses for Nokia.
But the way the search function seems to work is that when you type M it brings up all the contacts that contain M in it, in alphabetical order.
But if you have many many names then as you type it starts filtering them.
This is how Video Center and Music Player works as well. So it's a bit of backwards logic you think but really I think there's a reason.
Say you have many contacts saved. Now you know that this person first or last name starts with ME, but you don't know if it's the last or first name or that ME may be part of the name but not at the beginning then as you type ME it will bring all the contacts that have ME either at the beginning the middle or wherever.
So there's some logic to it but maybe not a lot...

IOS 8 - using Siri but she can't find contacts that I clearly have in my address book. Why? I can find them manually.
I have this issue also. I ask Siri to call a contact, it repeats and spells the contact exactly as it is in my contacts, then says it cannot find it. This happens for multiple contacts...

Copy & Edit Contacts from N95 8GB to PC WITHOUT Sm...
Is it possible to Copy & Edit Contacts from my N95 8GB to my PC WITHOUT Smart Suite as I want them in CSV format so I can fiddle with them on a spreadsheet.
I hate SmartSuite - I find it too much of a bind - in CSV format on one page in Excell would be great!!
Many thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.Smartsuite?
Nokia PC Suite's Communication Centre can export your phone contacts to a CSV file. If you don't want to do this then you can copy all of the contacts (again in communication centre) and paste them into a place of your choice on the PC and look for another application to get the data into a CSV file. -

ISync cannot find my handset (N95 8GB)
there is a lot of troubles with contecting N95 8gb to Mac:
1. iSync is not responding to USB connection, it says: NO DEVICE FOUND
2. when starting connection with Mac via USB connection, there is info message coming out, "USB CONNECTION IN USE, MASS MEMORY CANNOT BE USED". anyhow transfers are working fine. another thing is when you're done, there is no option in the handset how to end the connection, so logically you do it on computer, you eject the device. then there is info message coming out (for half a second), "DATA CABLE NOW CAN BE REMOVED". is about three seconds later coming second info message telling you "DATA MAY HAVE BEEN LOST. DATA TRANSFERS SHOULD BE STOPPED BEFORE REMOVING CABLE."
data is not lost, but here comes the best bit: i want to listen to music that i put inside, and the music player is just frozen, for around 20 to 30 minutes.
Same thing happens with camera sometimes, you make a pict, then you wanna show it to your mate, review is just frozen, and often happens that you jsut give up to wait for "LOADING" message.
didn't even try GPS yet
!N95 8GB is the most expensive handset on the market (not counting VERTU and designer pieces) you want it to be ready to go, not to lookout for firmware updates etc.

this happens when apps on the phone are using the memory card. for example, if your Messaging app (SMS, MMS, EMAIL) stores its data on the card, rather than internal memory, then you will get this message. make sure all applications are closed before trying to use the card. or use PC Suite mode instead, and use the Nokia Multimedia Transfer application. This application provides access to the memory card through a proxy application on the phone, rather than direct physical access (the proxy is invisible to you, you just drag and drop files, the app on the phone is told where to place the files, it works fine).

the DATA MAY BE LOST message is due to a bug macosx (someone correct me if i'm wrong). i have the SAME PROBLEM with my 8GB thumbdrive. i believe macosx is attempting to poll the device to remount it after i have manually ejected it. i have found that if i wait about 60seconds after unmounting that either 1) it automatically remounts, or 2) if i remove the usb drive, i get no error message.
i am curious about the music player app. on my n95-1, when i push new music onto my phone via Nokia Multimedia Transfer, i have to manually REFRESH to music library. perhaps your n95-8gb is doing this automatically? i only push 600MB of music to my microsd card and it takes a good 5 minutes to refresh, if you are pushing 3GB of music then this behavior makes sense to me (although it is unfortunate the Nokia Multimedia TRansfer doesn't do this for us). i wonder how your phone reacts to uploads from the Nokia Multimedia Transfer app? why would you possibly push music to the phone without using Nok..Mult..Trans..?

have you updated to the latest firmware? perhaps someone with your model of phone can provide insight to this.
when you do try the gps - make sure you turn A-GPS on and set a proper access point for it to use. look in
Tools->Settings->General->Positioning
(this is the where my settings are in my n95-1)

NOKIA boooo!
i cant disagree with you, but neither can i agree with you. i LOVE my N95-1. some features are not very cleanly implemented - like a race horse that stumbles fairly often, but the leanest fastest most hardcore race horse out there. if you want a smooth ride, i'm sorry. this horse doesn't trot. if you want an exhilarating ride, hold tight, it doesn't l=take long to get accustomed to the stumbles and figure out how to avoid them - then teh ride is fantastic.
good luck
N95-1 ---> N97-NAM ---> N900 ---> E7-00 + N900 (I use them both)
(N95 was pretty good, N97 had potential but utterly failed to deliver, N900 is absurdly good. Those of you wondering, "should I try N900/Maemo/MeeGo"? The answer is a resounding YES) -
Hi, I had just downloaded Skype on Mac but I can't seem to find any section with my list of contacts to start messaging. However, I could easily see them in my windows on another lappy.
Is there anything wrong with the set up or I've missed a step? Thanks.Holy crap, I feel like throwing my computer against the wall! What the heck happened to Skype? I cannot even find this mystical page they happily refer to in the "unhelp" "non-support" page. I cannot get to my page where I can make a stinking video call, which is the only reason I would ever use them. Please, has anyone had any luck on this topic?

How can i find contact information from phone?
While I was attempting to update the OS to 4.3.5 on the Iphone and error occurred that prevented me from completing the update. I ejected my phone from iTunes and immediately got a message on the phone telling me to connect to iTunes. When re-connected to iTunes I got a message saying my phone was in restore mode and that I needed to restore it. I did so and when prompted to sync with my existing phone profile / back up I did so. However, I got nothing restored and instead got my wife's contacts, etc copied to my phone. Is there a way that I can find the contact informaiton manually???

I have a MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7 with 8 GB of memory. I recently updated the operating system to Yosemite. Now I can no longer find my address book. Contacts is in order but I need the physical addresses, groups, etc. in my address book.
How do I find it?
Thank youWhy are apple constantly trying to fix something that was working very well before they touched it?
Why did you upgrade if you were happy with what you had? No one from Apple came round and forced you to upgrade.
You might want to explain this more fully. Where did you keep these folders on your HD?
Oh, and the simple solution is to restore from the back up you made just before upgrading - you did make one, right? -
Can't find contacts using airdrop (iphone6)
I cannot access any contacts using airdrop
That's because you have to be next to the person to share it with them using AirDrop. If you would like to share it with them another way, you can use email, text message, or create a Shared Photo Stream.

I deleted the app on my windows phone and redownloaded it a few months later. I forgot my log in but I'm pretty sure it was my windows accounts so I signed on. It said something about linking accounts so I just clicked yes. But now I dont see any of my contacts...I heard it's possible to make more than one skype account with one email so could it be that I'm on the wrong account somehow? Any help is appreciated!
How about letting others know what was the problem so that if others come up with the same issue they can have the solution?

hi,
can anyone tell me why i cant get hotmail or msn on my o2 mobile. yahoo is all ok but i cant get into live ID just re loads sign in page.
am i fighting the impossible
ps. yahoo mail is poop it never works but yahoo messenger is fine.
anyone know a way round this? plz
thanks suzieqHave you looked at www.izymail.com ?
Their service allows you to pop or imap email from your hotmail account using their gateway servers. It's been working well for me. There's a free version of their service so you can try it out, and if you like it there's a paid version with no limitations.
If you POP via izymail.com, you can also configure izymail to pull down the content of other hotmail folders (Junk for instance, in case you're worried you'll miss a message that's been mis-filed there). If you use IMAP the performance is a little slower, bur you'll be able to manage the content of these hotmail folders directly. -

Don't think that's available on N-Series phones - you'd have to check for 3rd party apps

Not available on N-Series either - you need a 3rd party app like TimeMachine (around US$5).

TomTom still doesn't work with the internal GPS - there are rumours of upcoming fixes from TomTom so you should keep checking there site.
Other routing software like Route66 does work with the internal GPS.
If you have an external Bluetooth GPS you might be better off using it anyway as the built-in one is apparently way slow at getting a fix.Message Edited by patc on 01-Nov-200710:44 AM
