Can't see who's calling

Hi,
I have a bb curve 8330. I haven't subscribe to the caller id option, but my other phone could recognizw the name and numbers that were in my address book. Is it possible to see the name and numbers that are registred in the address book even if I haven't subscribe to the caller id option?

There could be any one of three solutions... Try these:
1. Make sure you set your own country code at Phone Dialer Screen > Options > Smart dialing.
Set your country code in this format: "+xx" where xx = your country code. Some countries have two or three digit Country Codes. Do not place the '+' in your contact's entry.
* In the US, set this Country Code as "+1", and place your loca area code in the proper box (this normally the default setting in a new BB).
2. At the same location, change the National Number Length to the number of digits for your country (since some countries will have less than 10 as set as the default in the BB). Find out the total digits, minus the country code. Do not place the '+' in your contact's entry.
* For example, some countries have a total number to 8 (plus 3 for country code). You would enter "8".
3. You may have "Content Protection" set on your Address Book.
Look at Options > Security > General Settings. Scroll down to Content Protection > Include Address Book = NO.

My touchscreen blacks out while on a call so I can't multitask. If I am on a call and a new call comes in, I can't see who is calling or even think of answering because the screen is blacked out.

Thank you so very much! My husband is in Afghanistan and calls at different times. If I am on a call and can't answer him it could be days before I hear from him again. I never thought to just restart my phone! Duh...this is my first smartphone so I am learning. All day people were calling while I was on the phone but I couldn't answer. Thank GOD none of the calls were my husband because it would break my heart if I missed his call. Thank you again and GOD bless you! Ashley Combahee

Nokia N8 Can not see who's calling / display won't...

Hi,
I have the problem that when I get a call my phone will ring but there is nothing seen onto the display.
When I use the unlock button on the side of the phone it unlocks and then I can see who's calling and take the call.
When I want to hang-up, the display stays off and I can't hang up. I need to use the button on the side again to activate the display and then hang up.
The same is with the alarm buzzer, I set my phone to wake me up in the morning.
When the alarm goes, I cannot turn it of directly.
I need to unlock the phone again with the button on the side of the phone and then I can press snooze or turn off alarm.
Does anyone has experience with this or has a solution?
It is a Nokia N8 got it now for 3 weeks and has the latest software on it.
Best regards
Jasper

If the phone is not functioning correctly, as already suggested, it should be returned to a Nokia Care Centre for repair under warranty !
Good Luck

I can't see who is calling me, although I switched the recognizing numbers at on

Who can tell me why I cannot see who is calling me.

If you see only 'CALL' when you receive a phone then most probably its an Operator issue. Check with your operator whether the Caller ID sevice is active ?

I can't see who's calling me it appears as unknown and i have already saved the contact

I have a problem, I just buy an iphone 4, i created a contacts list in my macbook in the contacts app and sync it to the iphone. But when a contact calls me it appears as unknown. What's the problem??? What can I do???

ANY contact? Or one particular contact?
If it's one particular contact, they've either blocked or withheld their number from being sent via caller ID or there is a problem with your carrier, their carrier, or the interchange between the two.
If it's any number, your account is probably not provisioned properly by your carrier. Either way, if a simple re-set as suggested by Eric above doesn't fix it, you're going to need to contact your carrier about the problem.

How can I see who's calling a group call?

Example:Yesterday, I started a group call with two friends. After we hung up, the conversation will stay in "Recent - Yesterday" or something. Today, I was being called back into that group, mening that one of the two friends clicked "Call" on the group.To me, it only says "Friend 1, Friend 2 Calling" or something like that.How can I tell which of my friends are calling, without actually answering?

It usually just pops up when someone is trying to call you. You can add them and make a conference call, or end the call and take the other call. Not terribly familiar with this.

Upgraded 1phone 4 can no longer see who is calling on other line?

Upgraded Iphone 4 now can no longer see who is calling while the phone is in use. I hear the beep but see nothing, also does not show in missed call.

If you are no longer getting a notification that there is a second call coming in, contact your carrier. It sounds as if there is an issue with call waiting.

Re 6500 Slide - can't see who is ringing me before...

Hi - when I receive a call from a Contact in my Contact List, no details are shown, only 'Call' - how do I get this information to show (like it used to), so I can see who's calling before answering my phone ?? I used to be able to see the caller's name and phone number previously. Any ideas how to fix this ??
Thanks

How to see who is calling in a conversation group?

When my conversation group calls i can't see who is the caller. How can you see that?

Btw its only with the new version of skype, with the old version you could see who was calling.

Can i see who is using my wifi

can i see who is using my wifi????

We can't help you, you will need to call a local PC/Mac tech to come in and secure your network, likely they will recommend a newer faster router that has better security and fresher firmware updates.
Plus they can set your routers channel(s) to be far away from others in the area that might be causing your problems.
It's a shame but a lot of the older routers were shipped to be easy to set up by the user, but are severly lacking in security so anyone in the neighborhood can use it or hack it.
Print out my guide and ask the comptuer tech to apply those strick standards to your router or new one, you'll be secure after that.
Even the Comcast router/modems are insecure now despite enabling WPA2(AES) because they don't use enough random characters and only numbers, which is easy to crack on any computer with a decent graphics card.
It would take a massive botnet several hundred years to brute force my network.

Can't see who has replied to the thread in the forum, its pointess?

What's the point in creating a system where you can't see who has replied to the thread? Its absolutely F**CKING pointless? Does anyone at Adobe have any brains or are they all sitting with their heads up their backsides?
Surely before you release such garbage you test for these very simple issues, right?
osgood_(NOT M Golding) If anyone at Adobe is monitoring this please get my screen named changed to what it was previously as well.

It needs a 'latest reply' on the posted list page like the old version otherwise you have no idea if anyone has replied to the post or not without opening it.

The line below is not that necessary in the order of priority, which for all intense and purposes is quite useless. I don't really care about how long ago something was posted or where it was posted but an indication to show 'updated' posts and by who is vital.
9 minutes ago in Dreamweaver support forum
Why do we even need 'Dreamweaver support forum'. We already know that's where we are! I guess a selection of posts from other forums may appear in a 'general' postings list somewhere, but who really cares - if I'm asking a question related to DW that's the forum I'm going to, not a general list as I don't care a monkey knackers what's been posted in Fireworks or InDesign or Illustrator. If I did I'd go to those forums.
If you are tracking several postings it is going to become hugely annoying for both the person who has asked the question and the people helping the original poster as many replies will potentially go unnoticed and not resolved.
And what's with the silly horizontal scroll bar being created for long lines of text? That's annoying too.
Plenty of teething issue you need to get your head around over the next few weeks.

How can i see a detailed call log

how can i see a detailed call log including actual numbers on restricted calls

You won't see the numbers if the call came in as restricted...that's the point of a caller blocking their number.
You can pay for a service like TrapCall that will give you the restricted numbers. Or you can use a service (free) like DitchMail that gives callers a recording asking them to unblock their number and call back, if the call comes in with the number blocked. It then hangs up without giving them the opportunity to leave a message.
