Categories in IPhone contacts and folders in safari favorites

Will Apple ever implement categories in the IPhone contacts and folders in safari favorites? This is a great phone but without this it puts contact management back dark ages when you have 300 contacts. having the favorites in the contact screen is not the same but it helps just a little. If they do I would like more than 35 categories to define myself. If would also like a search with the virtual keyboard so I can type in Ken and get everyone with the first name of Ken. The MS smartphones have all of the above and it is a good idea.

It already has Groups for Contacts and Folders for Safari favorites.

    When you say a new user ID, are you referring to your Apple ID that you use to make purchases in the iTunes Store, etc? Or are you talking about a new user account on the same Mac?

  • Still trying to seperate hubby's iPhone contacts and apps from mine!

    Still trying to seperate hubby's iPhone contacts and apps from mine! Read all the previous messages, did everything suggested, have two entirely different accounts, two names, two passwords, etc.
    Can't use two different computers to sync because he's not ... patient enough to handle it. So It's my job to do both his and mine.
    Would it work to sync his to the cloud and mine to my computer? Would that seperate them? Divorce is a possibility. Any other suggestions are welcome. calls to the Geniuses have gone unanswered.

    Restore your iPhone with the backup for your iPhone or as new.

    How do I delete all my contacts and folders to start off new again as they just keep on coming back all the time after deleted?
    Is there an email address for better communication as this way I find extremely difficult?

    check your account settings, possibly under advanced settings.
    look for an option to check "remove messages from server" or similar.

  • Iphone contacts and photos is not syncing to iCloud

    iphone contacts and photos is not syncing to iCloud

    I also have this problem, just from the iPhone 5s which makes my life crazy, too.
    The problem of having multiple devices doesn't seem to help, but the odd part is when everything I am doing is correct, it still doesn't sync like it used to do before iCloud, and when we had to USB wire connect the iPhone to the Laptop to make contacts sync.
    Might I add that I am not using MAIL on my LAPTOP?
    but ?Britty sounds like her issue is easier as gmail sometimes can create duplicates so you are in good if you are not having that problem or nightmare...
    IF ANYONE ELSE can PLEASE ADD to this THREAD? I would be thankful
    as there seems to be a TRENDING on iPhone 5s not syncing with other devices or backwards.....(I have added contacts to the iPhone 5s and they never get added to the iCloud or the iPad or the Addressbook or CONTACTS on the LAPTOP....
    This should be working and I have checked the CONTACTS on the laptop GROUPS , iCloud, vs ALL ON MY MAC
    it just isn't syncing and in some cases I am getting a WEB DAV error or CAL error...-1
    what is that? iCloud will not sync all contacts?
    something is crazy
    but I want to remain at 10.8 MOUNTAIN LION and not upgrade to MAVERICKS......or use MAIL on my LAPTOP...just CONTACTS ONLY......

  • Adding iPhone contact and  it shows up as Android user on texts- how to fix this

    I have a new iPhone 6 and just added a new contact - who has an iPhone too -   after adding it - I tried to  send a text to them and it showed up as a Text not an iMessage ---  I looked to make sure that I put his phone number in as an iPhone and just mobile. It is in as an iPhone --
    This means I cannot text from my MacBook Pro or iPad  -  and yet he has an iPhone ---    are there certain carriers that don't play well with Apple or is this something I am doing wrong .
    Please help  -  this is the second contact that is showing up this way...
    I also have a tenant that I text to and they changed carriers but have the same phone.   I think they are now with T-Mobile.   And when I open the text messages to and from them   Some where sent in Blue as iMessages and the newer ones are all in green and sent as SMS text messages -- I not longer can send the  text from my Mac Book Pro.  
    Please please help me.    I am using current operating systems on all devices and all devices are new this year.
    What is going on?

    Hey Dgnstl,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with iMessage. To troubleshoot these issues, see the following resource for helpful steps:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving iMessages, follow these steps
    1. Check iMessage system status for current service issues.
    2. Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure that you registered iMessage with your phone number or Apple ID and that you selected iMessage for use. If the phone number or Apple ID isn't available for use, troubleshoot iMessage registration.
    3. Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. If a data connection isn't available, troubleshoot cellular data or a Wi-Fi connection.
    4. iMessage over cellular data might not be available while you're on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn which network your phone supports. If your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while you're on a call.
    5. Restart your device.
    6. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    If you still can't send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
    1. Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    2. Make sure that the contact you're trying to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
    3. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    4. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact in the Contacts app. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    5. Back up and restore your device as new.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Transfer iphone contacts and calendar from pc to to new macbook pro

    I have my iphone synced to a pc. Just bought a macbook pro and want to transfer my contacts and calendar to macbook. Will now exclusively use Macbook. I know from past experience that you cant sync iphone to 2 computers so what is the best way to transfer my contacts and calendar plus anything else that can be transferred over to my new macbook? I have already burned a DVD with all my purchases so I guess I can import all the apps from this backup.

    Did you get a subscription to MobileMe?
    If so, Sync your iPhone contacts & Calendar to MobileMe then Sync MobileMe to your new MBP.
    If not, I don't know if Apple has an easy way to send your Pc stuff to your new MBP but I think that you can sync your PC contacts and calendar to a Google account then sync google to your new MBP.
    There might be an easier way to do this.
    I am sure you'll enjoy your new Mac.

    You don't need an app. You need couple's counseling. I believe what you want to do may also be illegal in many jurisdictions.

  • Sync Issue with iPhone Contacts and Entourage Contacts

    Curious, when I update my contacts from my iPhone 3G I would expect both Entourage Contacts and my MacBook Pro address book to eventually become fully sync'd.
    This is not the case...for example I have added a photo to one contact numerous times and it does eventually update my address book contact but at some point this photo is removed. I have sync services enabled in both Entourage and System Preferences but can't figure out where the conflict exists. I have a suspicion that it is Entourage since this - as of yet - has no idea what a MobileMe cloud is.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks!

    I am having some of the same issues and I think you are right about Entourage. Here is what I did for a temporary fix. I did a export, address archive from my address book, then I imported it back into my address book, overwriting my address in my address book, I now have 217 contacts in both my address book and iPhone. Apple has some issues with syncing and they need to get this fixed.
