Contact can be edited but not deleted

Hi there,
New poster here and I wanted to share something peculiar about my new kin twom. I seem to have one contact that can be edited but not deleted. When I click the contact, all I get at the top are "favorite" and "edit" buttons. However, all my other contacts seem to have an "edit" button on top as well as a "more" button that, when clicked, gives you the option to "delete", "link", or make the contact a "favorite".
I can live with this non-deletable contact but I'm very curious as to how/why this happened. Anyone have any ideas?

It looks like this is your own contact card, and it may have been accidentally edited. By default, the phone creates a contact card for yourself, and it should have your own name and number in there. You can't delete your own contact
Not sure what the original contact was but I guess it's possible that it was my own contact card. I did not know that the phone creates one for you. What name does the phone assign to this contact?

This is for your protection, its not supposed to be easy.

Contact disappeared from iPhone but not deleted from Address Book on sync

FYI, I have an iPhone 3G running iOS 4.2 (the latest), and I have never so much as thought about MobileMe.
Until two days ago, I have had no reason to doubt that my iPhone's Contact list is the same as my MacBook's Address Book list. I now have no confidence that the same info. exists in both: I know for sure that at least one contact long present in both has disappeared from the iPhone, yet syncing all contacts neither returns it to the iPhone nor deletes it from Address Book! I need help troubleshooting this contact as well as verifying that there aren't other similar anomalies corrupting my data, hopefully without manually comparing all 685 entries...
Two days ago, a certain number, let's call it (310) 555-5555, popped up in my recents list as a missed call and in my visual voicemail. When I listened to the voicemail, I discovered that (310) 555-5555 was Jane Smith. I remembered entering Jane Smith several months ago, so I thought hmmm, does she have a second number? I tried to add (310) 555-5555 to an existing entry, only to find my iPhone had no entry for Jane Smith anymore at all! I did not delete her myself, and I'm not aware of any 3rd-party app that ought to have affected the entry. I haven't called Jane Smith or (310) 555-5555 in quite some time, so I have no idea how long the entry may have been missing. I searched the whole phone (left of the first home screen)
At the next opportunity, I looked in Address Book on my laptop, and indeed found the expected entry for Jane Smith, (310) 555-5555. I have no idea how she disappeared from my iPhone -- did I or some third-party program delete her? Or did it happen through some sync issue? -- but I naturally worried that when I next synced, the deletion would sync, too, and I would lose the Address Book entry, leaving me without Jane Smith's number at all.
Such an event would defeat the entire purpose of backing up my phone contacts to my computer; I just moved to iPhone this spring after being a Palm user since 1997, and the idea that iPhone might not be reliably syncing my contacts is frankly terrifying. I checked and saw that my Address Book listed 685 contacts to iPhone Contacts's 684, so I decided to risk a sync in hopes that maybe I had caused a one-off deletion. I wrote down Jane Smith (310) 555-5555 just in case and hit sync.
The results of the sync and my subsequent troubleshooting have seriously undermined my confidence in the fidelity of the sync process. The first time, nothing changed--I still had 684 iPhone, no Jane Smith, and 685 Address Book, including Jane Smith.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Before conecting your phone, open iTunes on your computer and go to Preferences, on the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically". Now connect your phone and when it appears in iTunes on the left sidebar click on its name. Go to the Info tab and confirm than your have checked Sync Contacts with Address Book. Now further down on the Info tab under Advanced>Replace information on this iPhone check Contacts. Click Apply and sync your phone. This will replace the contacts on your phone with the contacts in Address Book. (When complete you can go back to iTunes preferences and uncheck "Prevent..." to re-establish automatic syncing if your prefer this.)

I have had them change their settings for my ph number to NOT say iPhone. Txt msg is disabled on iPad. I have no idea what to do. I called the support line that I Pay $9.99 a month for. They told me to delete my iTunes account. Will I lose all my pics on my ipad? I have no music download. I'm getting ****** at this whole thing. And it allllllll started with apples update to the ios7.... I HATED IT. Help.

What your iPhone using friends label your phone number in their contacts is irrelevant. I don't know who you pay $9.99 a month to but it's not Apple. You can't disable text messaging on your iPad as it is not capable of SMS.
Do you still have the iPhone? If so, log out of iMessage on the iPhone.
Try this:
Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
Log in if not already logged in.
Click on "Edit Products"
Click on the "X" to the right of the product.
Click "Unregister"
Also, try changing the password on your iTunes account.

Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select the account > account name , tap on SMTP (under the 'Outgoing Mail Server' heading) and then tap on your Primary Server and try entering your email account and password and see if you can then send emails

You don't have to do anything with the first iPod that you don't use anymore. If you are planning on keeping it, put in a drawer in your house and forget about it.
You don't need a second account to use with the new iPod. I use one Appl e ID and iTunes library for two iPods, and two iPad. I have different content on all four devices. You can select exactly what you want to sync to each device and it can be different content on all devices.

I can send messages to one of my contacts on my iPhone but not on my iPad. Why?

Does the contact you are sending the message to use an iPhone?
The iPhone will send and receive both iMessages and Text messages (SMS).
The iPad will only send and receive iMessages.
iPads cannot receive SMS text messages.

I am at capacity How can I free up space but not delete music

My Ipad is at 55.4 gb used 24 gb in music alone. 2.7 gb available so can't do anything Ipad shuts itself down and won't let me open mail, use facebook, safari.How can I free up space but not delete songs in library

Unless you are attempting to download a sizable file, 2.7 GB should be more than enough to continue fucntioning. Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray BEFORE doing the reset.

Extract the Pending Proposal which is not posted but not deleted F110

Dear Friends,
User has raised new requirement to extract the Pending proposal in F110 which is pending for final run but not deleted by user.
Please advice how can I extract the pending proposal which is pending for final run in F110.
Thanks in an advance.
Regards,
Pankaj

Hello Pankaj,
There are two mthods, first one is F110 > Edit > Proposal > Proposal List. Another way is SE16 > REGUH > input X selection criteria in input field REGUH-XVORL (Indicator: Only Proposal Run?) to list proposal pending for final payment.
Kind regards,

I can access Google, but not Gmail.

Hi guys. I've been having trouble with my internet connection for as long as I've had my Mac (one year). For the longest time, I've repeatedly had to click the icon for Airport and then turn it off and back on again to recover my connection to Google Gmail and Google docs. These are the first sites to disappear, later I have trouble accessing other sites, this is corrected by turing off and then on Airport. But that is very frustrating, and I often have to do it over and over again. Also, I'm puzzled by the fact that my Skype connection is rarely bothered when access to others sites drops.
I've been reading as much as I can find and trying the airport utility. Clearly I am stupid because things went from bad to worse. Now I can access Google, but not Gmail. I can access most parts of Apple.com, but when I tried to purchase the upgrade to OS 10.6, I couldn't view the page images. I found the same problem on a few other sites. When I tried to access Linkedin, I could get to the login page, but no further.
In each case, I get the usual message: Safari can’t open the page “https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?service=mail&passive=true&rm=false& continue=http%3A%2F%2Fmail.google.com%2Fmail%2F%3Fhl%3Den%26tab%3Dwm%26ui%3Dhtml %26zy%3Dl&bsv=1eic6yu9oa4y3&scc=1&ltmpl=default&ltmplcache=2&hl=en” because Safari can’t establish a secure connection to the server “www.google.com”.
I've tried resetting Airport back to the factory settings. Now all I get is the blinking yellow light - I'm not sure what that means.
I'm now connected via hardwire, but access is limited to very few sites, such as this one and Google. I can search google, but I can't access gmail. I can access everything on my windows computer through the same wired network.

I am having this same problem, but it's not related to parental controls. I have to keep turning the airport on and off as well. Here (http://www.mac-help.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9802) is a post I made over at mac-help.. still waiting for a reply.
What I've noticed is, the DNS is resolving correctly, but I cannot access certain sites. Regardless, I've tried Open DNS servers and still get the same result. It's not a specific browser. Certain sites go down in a few minutes after visiting them. Some go down faster than others. And others don't go down at all. Sites I've had problems with are Apple.com (to make this post I've had to turn the airport on and off continually), Gmail.com, Google.com, while Google.ca works fine.
A solution would be great..

Editing a movie that was already cut together without transcoding .h264 footage to proresslt. I want to transcode full clips that are used in the edit, but not any of the leftovers.

Editing a movie that was already cut together without transcoding .h264 footage to proresslt. I want to transcode full clips that are used in the edit, but not any of the leftovers. Is there an efficient way to this?
I'm thinking I can convert the files with Compressor and place them in a new folder with their original file names (not sure how to get compressor to do this yet) and then do a major "Reconnect Clip" afterwards.
Not sure if there's a more efficient way to get all the clips in the timeline to compressor. I want the full files, not a sequence export. I can go through one clip and a time and add the master file. I'd rather not.
The more automated processes the better.
Thank you. I'm currently working so I don't have the time to scour the forums. Help or links to help would be greatly appreciated.

yeah Media reconnect can be an issue.
Will Media Manager convert files? Another thing I was thinking was to Media Manage the sequence out, copying all the used files to a new folder, and then running that through compressor. But it still leads to a massive reconnect. Fine tuning all those edits would be less involved than re-editing the whole thing, I hope.

Try Mail->Window->Connection Doctor. If there is a problem reported, try:
Open Mail->Preferences and check your settings.
If you still have a problem, Copy your settings (screen capture ⇧⌘4), delete account, and re-setup account

Why can I receive but not send emails

Why can I receive but not send emails on my i pad?

Perhaps the outgoing mail server settings are incorrect or incomplete.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.
