Can you make a contact appear as a shortcut on the home screen?

When I used a Droid phone, I was able to put my 9 most used contacts on one of the home screens as shortcuts. Im finding out that the iPhone 4 takes more time to get to my contacts even though there is a favorites section. I'd like to put that on the home screen instead of having to click phone>contacts>favorites>then scroll to find my favorites. I want to swipe to the contacts page and click one of my top 9 favorite contacts! Possible? If not, I plead with Apple to make this possible. It was the only thing I liked about my Droid!

There are several other apps in the app store that do this as well.

  • I have created a spreadsheet on numbers for ipad with a list of customers as a drop down menu. How can i make their address appear underneath when i select the customer?

    I have created a spreadsheet on numbers for ipad with a list of customers as a drop down menu. How can i make their address appear underneath when I select the customer?
    iselect the customer?

    Hi bazza,
    We won't be able to put the address from a formula into the same cell that you enter the customer's name. We can put the address in the cell under the customers name.
    First let's take James advice and concatenate the address in the address table.
    Here is the formula in G2
    =CONCATENATE(B2&"
    ",C2&"
    ",D2&"
    ",E2)
    It shows this way because after I clicked on B2 and typed [&"] (no brackets) I typed option-return
    This gives you your new line. Then I typed the closing ". I repeated this for the rest of the address.
    Next we want to bring this to your order sheet. I prefer using the two formulas OFFSET and MATCH instead of VLOOKUP.
    base tells OFFSETwhere to start counting from. Click A1.
    row-offset is for the row. we will use MATCH() -1 to give us the row.
    What MATCH does is give you the row number where something is found and you can specify an exact match. I usually construct the MATCH formula first and then cut and paste it into OFFSET. MATCH looks like this: MATCH(A2,Table 1::A,0). A2 is what we are looking for, Table 1A::A is where we are looking (the entire column A), and 0 means we want an exact match. Can you see it inside the OFFSET formula? Notice that we had to subtract 1 from its result.
    column-offset tells OFFSET which column A=0 so we want 6.
    we ignore "rows", "colomns" we don't need them.
    If this seems like too much, just break it down into small pieces.

  • HT204364 Can you make a puzzle from a photo or have the image printed on a cup as a gift or do I order this elsewhere? Thanks.

    Can you make a puzzle from a photo?  I'd like this.  Also, can you have a photo transposed on a cup?

    Yes, there are websites that can do what you want.  You just have to do a Google search for what you want.

  • Settings - Mail,Contacts,Calendars - I just return to the home screen

    When I attempt to go to Settings - Mail,Contacts, Calendars, I just return immediately to the home screen
    I need to set a password on my email account - how do I go about this if I cannot get through Settings - Mail,Contacts,Calendars

    Problem alleviated by doing a factory restore.  This does seem like a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
    I really expected Apple software to be more robust than that.
    Thanks for all your suggestions

  • Can you make a table in one section directly mimic the table in another?

    I have a file in pages I am trying to create to make three separate documents at once.  I have a check out sheet, an invoice, and a rental agreement.  I want to have an entire table duplicated from the check out sheet to the invoice, but the table will always have a different number of rows.  Is there a way to make a flexible table that follows the size of another one?

    Have you tried Numbers which is a proper Spreadsheet App?
    This is exactly what I said. Have you?
    You appear to be short on manners as well as common sense and comprehension.
    Those of us who do the support here do so despite the reading abilities and basic courtesies of some of the posters.
    We can't make Pages do something it isn't designed for, so no point taking it out on us.

    It was only happening to that icon.  I figured it out though.  All I had to do was turn off my phone and turn it back on and it was out of the newsstand icon when I turned it back on.  Thanks for your help though!

  • Can you make Facebook events appear on Mac Calendar?

    The title more or less says it all. Facebook events now appear on the iOS 6 calendars, but do they also appear on Mac version? Am I missing something?

    Hello, I have had the same issue, the Facebook intergration with ioOS displays all the facebook events in the calendar - which can be a real pain if you have lots of events.
    I have not found any option in iOS6 to filter by accepted events or to hide declined events. This is something Apple should really work on - sounds to me like they just bundled this into iOS6 without consideration for accepted or declined events.
    So the workaround which I have found is to stop the facebook calendar in iOS6 (Settings/Facebook) and instead to subscribe to Facebook events and/or birthdays via the site straight into iCal. What is in your iCal will appear on all your devices so there you go. Make sure in FB to state that you don't want al events to be displayed. Then you'll be fine.
    Use this link if you want http://www.wikihow.com/Sync-Facebook-Events-to-iCal
    Make sure to go to the settings option on FB page to select which events you want displayed.
    It lacks the neat little FB icon that would appear via the iOS intergration but lets hope Apple sorts this out quickly and that we'll be able to chose which events to display, accepted or rejected etc....
    Hope this helps,

  • Can you make a DIV appear/fade on page load instead of the listed events?

    Does anyone know if there's a way to have a specific DIV fade
    in when the page loads? I know how to do it with a click or mouse
    over, but the behavior panel won't let me change the event to
    onLoad. It says that's an invalid event for the DIV tag. I found a
    javascript code that makes the DIV appear when the page loads and
    it work...until I tried to add other Spry behaviors. Then it
    refused to fade in. I can provide that code if it helps.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the speedy response. But your answer went right
    over my head. I'm using Dreamweaver and a complete novice in
    javascript or coding...for now. (But I'm taking classes, so there'
    hope for me yet.)
    When you say "use SpryDOMUtils.js" is that a script I need to
    find, reference, load?
    Maybe I should post this question on the Dreamweaver since
    I'm so ignorant about coding?

  • Can you make an enter event in topmostsubform that gets the field name of any field thats entered

    Looking for some help.
    I have a modified Enter Event I'm trying to use. What my expected results are: When you click on a field on the PDF, it would open up a certain webpage or file depending on what field is entered. I currently have:
    if (xfa.host.name == "Acrobat") {
              app.launchURL("www.cnn5.com" + "/" + event.target.documentFileName + "&" + this.name, true);
    else {
              xfa.host.gotoURL("www.cnn5.com");
    In this example, i'm using a bogus address obviously. "event.target.documentFileName" gives me the PDF name which is what I want, but I need to scrub off the ".pdf" at the end of it. I know I can use this in every field that I want it in, but I'm looking to see if I can get this code in just the topmostsubform only due to having hundreds of forms I might be using this form and to save time.
    When this is used in the topmostsubform, it gives me the URL: "www.cnn5.com/PDFname.pdf&TopmostSubform" no matter what field i click into. Is there something i can change this.name to? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Also, i'll need to have this event to be able to use multiple times, because currently in the topmostsubform, it only activates on the first field that I enter and doesn't activate on fields after that. Suggestions please? Thank you

    Hi,
    Are you using event propagation?  If you are try
      xfa.event.target.name
    Otherwise have a look at this  http://blogs.adobe.com/formfeed/2009/03/xfa_30_event_propagation.html

  • When I open a new window in FFox7, how can I make it automatically appear exactly on top of the previous window -- not resized, not shifted, but directly on top?

    I used to set Firefox to full screen; but my new monitor is too big to do that. So I sized the Firefox window to the size I want, and I carefully centered it (using a tape measure to get it as close to dead center as possible).
    But everytime I open a new window, it appears shifted slightly to the right (I think that's called cascading, but I'm not sure). While some might like this feature, I prefer it open exactly on top of the previous window; and it's a pain to have to shift the new window manually every time I open one.
    How do I set Firefox to open new windows right on top of the parent window (and the same size), covering it up completely?
    Thanks,
    Dafydd abHugh

    Well, then isn't there some way to induce Firefox to give Windows parameters that make it open the fershlugginer window in the *same* position, instead of an offset position?

  • Can you make each page show a different name in the pages panel?

    I would like to be able to name each page with a different name so they display in the pages panel (under the page icon) with a different name for each page rather than just 1, 2, 3 etc. eg. page one called 'Matt', page 2 called 'Satin', page 3 'Gloss. Is this possible?
    Thanks

    Yes, but it might not work the way you fully intend.
    On each page in the "pages" panel, right click and choose 'Numbering & Section Options'.
    From the popup, select 'Start Page Numbering At' and add the page number. Eg, Page 1 would be 1, Page 2 would be 2 etc (you need to do this for each page)If you don't want numbers, you can select from their 'Style' dropdown but you must select something
    In the 'Section Prefix' box, enter the text you would like displayed - Matt, Satin, Gloss etc
    If you want these names to show up in the document as a page number, select 'Include prefix when numbering pages'
    The result of this is that each page is now it's own section of the document.

  • Can I make my bookmarks appear in a column on the side of Firefox every time I open Firefox, (like Internet Explorer does)?

    Look at Internet Explorer and how you can "pin" the bookmarks toolbar to the side for easy access. I am a new user of Firefox.

    '''{ Ctrl + b }''' to open the Bookmarks Sidebar. Along long as you don't close it, the Bookmarks Sidebar should stay open and be open when you start Firefox.
