Can't select contacts when composing email - 2.0

When in Mail on iPhone 2.0 1st gen, if I choose to compose a new email and type a letter in the To: field, the iPhone freezes for a couple of moments and then quits out of Mail back to the splash page.
If I go to Contacts first and select a contact to email, I can add additional contacts on the To: line without any problem.
After running the update twice, it did the same thing. I'm going to try the update again without restoring my old data and try a whole new sync.

Don't try to activate MobileMe and Exchange contacts. You can't have both. On my Mac, I sync my Entourage contacts with Address Book so I'm using MobileMe for contacts. But I can still access our Exchange server Global Address List.
One nice feature, you can't access the Global Address List from non-Exchange accounts but you can access your address book from your Exchange account.

  • Q10 remove suggested contacts when composing email

    There's an suggested contact with a typo showing up as frequently used when composing any new email, is there a way to remove it? it's causing me to select the wrong one all the time and is bouncing the message (there's an extra "." at the end of the email address.) 
    I tried to look this answer up but no luck so far. 
    Please help this is really annoying and causing communication breakdowns between parties. 
    Thanks! 

    Anybody got a solution or workaround for this?
    thanks a million!

  • Eliminate history of unwanted contacts when composing emails

    When composing an email, and I type in the first letter or two of the recipient, a history comes up and contains unwanted, incorrect or undesired email addresses that are NOT in my address book. How do I clean them up so only the desired contacts are shown? I cannot find a way to delete these. Thank you...it drives me nuts!

    All suggestions ARE in your address books. You have at least 2 default books. The personal and the collected books. You will have to find them in the books and fix or delete them.

  • Email address list populated drop down disappearing on the to / cc / bcc fields when composing emails

    First the symptoms:
    As far as I can see this effects only the v5.0 RIM OS. We have a multitude of users and the ones who are affected all shared the same trait: they had newer, v5.0 OS preinstalled on their BBerries. The ones with v4.7 never had the problem (might be a coinsidence, nothing solid here)
    The user cannot see a drop down of email addresses prepopulated with the recently used ones, and with the option to "lookup" the email address. User starts typing the email address, and no drop down is shown while composing email.
    If the user manually types in the email address into the To, Cc or BCc fields, the adress will not be permanent and the email will not be sent at all. The "send" menu item will not be visible when the track ball is pressed.
    Quick remedy to send emails:
    Hit the enter key after typing in the email address. Do NOT switch to the next row using the track ball, or pressing the trackball. Hit the enter key. Then you will be able to send the email.
    Backing up the user files and wiping the handset and re-installing the OS seems to resolve the issue, alas, one user had the same problem again in a month after the operation. So that is NOT a permanent solution.
    Funny fix: On the affected device, go to email options -> Options / General Options / "Show recent contacts when composing email" and just switch it to whatever is in there. If it is Yes, make it No, if it is No, make it yes. Then save. And the drop down should become visible again. Counter-intuitively, this setting was YES on on affected device, we switched it to No just for the sake of having made a change, saved the settings and the drop down became visible with the setting at "NO". When we switched it back to "YES" the drop down became invisible again

    Once you have the Write window open, press F9 to open the Contact Sidebar. Select your contacts from there.

  • Email contacts don't show up when composing email

    Hi,
    I recently got an iPad2 and added a couple of email accounts including gmail and yahoo mail. However, i noticed a key difference when composing email from an iPad rather than on an Iphone.
    On my iPhone4 when I compose an email and in the 'To:' address field I start typing the name of my contact iphone is able to search from my contact list from my gmail account, however this does not happen on the Ipad.
    Any idea how to fix this?
    I have set-up my email accounts in the same way as I did on my phone.
    Thanks very much

    It also work on the iPad, so try to turn off/on your iPad or a reset, keep the On/off button and the Home button pressed at the same time till you see the Apple logo in your screen.

  • I can't open Contacts - when I try it immediately closes.

    I have a problem, I can't open Contacts - when I try it immediately closes.
    I can not sync my contacts from Gmail all the time tells me that the open contacts.

    First, reboot the pad by holding the home and sleep buttons until the apple logo appears. Ignore the red slider.  If that does not fix it, think about your update selections.  Are you using the cloud? Or are you syncing to google?  Try turning that off, see if it works, then back on again.

  • Attachments not showing when composing emails

    Hello.
    For some reason I don't know, Mail has suddenly stopped displaying attachments I insert when composing emails. No matter what file type, it displays the Lego cube with the question mark instead of the attachment. (Note: NOT the little blue square with a question mark which indicates a file missing etc.)
    However, people receive them just fine and I receive attachments just fine myself. I also receive my own attachments when I send an email to the office mailing list (which includes myself).
    It is only when I compose an email that I am not seeing the things I attach. Not the correct file icon, not the file name or size, not the 'show attachments as...' option. Nothing. Just the blue Lego-type cubes with the question mark.
    I have set the Preference in Composing to Rich Text, we use an IMAP server in the office but I am the only one suffering this problem and I don't know what has changed as it was working just fine until a few weeks ago!
    Any help would be appreciated as it is extremely irritating, if anything because I don't know why.

    Hi,
    What if you do a All Mailbox search, are you able to see the specific mail item in the result list?
    You might need to check your view setting of that folder. Maybe you have it set for unread mail only, or some settings are filtering out the messages you just moved.
    Just highlight the folder, then click View in the ribbon, then click
    View Settings. Click Filter... button on the dialog, then clear any related settings or click
    Clear All button.
    Thanks,

  • Firefox & Yahoo Mail - Issue w/ Using Contacts when composing. Msg says contacts not found. Problem w/ Firefox or Yahoo?

    I am using Firefox 6.0.2. I use Yahoo for e-mail. Recently, I always have issues when trying to use Yahoo contacts. They are not available when composing an e-mail. Is this a compatibility issue w/ Firefox 6.0.2 & Yahoo Mail Plus?
    Thanks.
    Terri Taylor

    I have no access to my Yahoo contacts. I cannot search or browse them. The only way I can get ONE is by adding the contact from an email. Then, if I ask to see more contacts either through the partial alphabet buttons or to see the entire list of contacts, I'm back to the same search page where NOTHING happens. Did I say this is VERY frustrating?? HELP

  • Email names not in contacs when composing email

    Hi,
    When composing a new email (activesync). I see many different email addresses when typing in TO... but most of these names are not in my contacts list.
    How can I remove certain names?
    I'm actually trying to send emails to myself but there are six different addresses with my name... only one of the addresses works.. the others are invalid and bounce back (for instance, one of them does not have anything after the @ sign).
    When I check contacts I have only one with my own name in it.
    Any ideas how to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    They are just suggestions from previous emails (you must have typed them in by mistake or received emails from someone with those addresses--possibly spam) and, unfortunately, you can't remove or change them. After a while they'll go away.

  • HT5500 can't see contacts when viewed from home pc

    I've set up icloud on my iphone and my pc at home but i can't see any of my contacts when I view using icloud from my home pc
    I've used the general trouble shooting guide and everything looks like its set up ok, all my contacts are there in my phone and I did the back up also
    Any idea's on this?

    Yes I believe that's why you don't see them.  You can prove this by tapping the work email groups so they are unchecked (so only iCloud is checked), then tap Done.  If you don't see any contacts, it means that they all belong to your work account.
    To copy them to iCloud, you would do the following:
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section) and select iCloud as your default account.
    Download the app My Contacts Backup from the App store on your phone.  (You will need the "Pro" version if you have 500 or more contacts).
    Use the app to back up your contacts as an attachment to an email.  Send this email to yourself.
    After receiving the email, open it on your phone and tap the attachment to re-import them to your phone.  They will be imported to iCloud as you have selected that as your default in step 1.
    Check icloud.com to confirm that they are there.
    You will see duplicates on your phone since you have copies of your contacts in your exchange account groups and your icloud group.  You can hide the duplicates from view by opening contacts, tapping Groups, then tap to uncheck either your exchange groups or your icloud group, then tap Done.
    If you want new contacts created on your phone to be added to your exchange account rather than your iCloud account, go back to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the contacts section) and change it back to your exchange account again.  If you want new contacts to be created in iCloud, just leave your settings as they are.
    You should now have a copy of your contacts in your iCloud account (visable on icloud.com).  You can also use the app to back up your contacts at any time and save the attachment on your computer as a backup.

  • Screen Blacks Out When Composing Email

    When I am composing emails after a minute or two the screen goes black, and the phone reverts back to the home page. The pending email disappears (not even saved as a draft) anyone have a clue how to fix this?

    I'll be honest.  These are WAGs.  However...
    Since the Reset didn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • Can't select text when export in HTML and Images

    I am entirely new to Fireworks and I can't find anyone to teach me Adobe Fireworks. I followed some youtube tutorials but most of them are vague. I am still figuring the way to export from Fireworks to Dreamweaver, without affecting its contents like bitmap images and the text. When I export in HTML and Images format and opened the htm file, I can't select the text I've inserted in Fireworks. Can anyone tell me what I should do?

    I cant scroll below or above viewable section of text in any of my Macbooks, iMac, Mac Mini. Never have been able to, never could, except by pressing the arrow keys whilst selecting, to move up or down.
    Its stupid
    I dont have flash installed (never will do since my first virus of video ad sound running in background from Cnet was downloaded and kept returning until i deinstalled flash).
    I believe that this is a universal issue because none of my Macs can scroll out of screen when selecting text, which as a webmaster and developer, is a pain in the butt
    My issue is not in word documents, its in everything
