  • Crash when saving photo when contact edit screen open - anyone else?

    On two separate iPhones I have experienced a crash when saving a photo taken from "inside" the contacts edit screen. In both cases the photo app would capture the image and attempt to save. The screen goes black for about 5 seconds then returns to the home screen. The photo is not in the camera roll and the image container on the contact editor screen is empty.
    iPhone G3, 16GB, v2.2 <--both phones tested
    Sequence: Open Contacts, locate existing entry, tap "edit", tap "add photo", tap "take photo", shoot picture, tap "set photo", system shows "saving photo" pinwheel, then screen goes black.
    Doesn't happen every time. One instance corrupted the mail application and applied a false name in the "from" field for many of my emails. Remedy: Reload v2.2 software and restore from backup.
    Anyone else see this behavior?

    I have had this same problem. As best I can recall, I have the problem every time. I've certainly updated software, reset software and reinstalled 2.2 for my phone, for other reasons. And, I've gotten another friend to duplicate the problem. My workaround is to save the contact info and then take the picture from the camera and then reopen and edit the contact and add the picture. It's just that, sometimes, I make a leap of faith and try to take a save a picture from within the contacts. It's a teeny, minor embarassment when I then have to ask a person for their info again, as the contact crashes before it's been saved.
    Mostly, I'd enjoy the elegance of being able to add contacts and their photo at the same time. I know that's what is intended by Apple.
    I don't intend to newly install 2.2 software, etc. with my iPhone to try and solve this problem. Just seems like a waste of time at the moment. I just want to state that it's a problem and it would be meaningful for Apple to correct this in 3.0
    Life with the iPhone hasn't been perfect, but it has been awesome!

  • Contact editing

    Hi!
    I've got an E51. This is my first S60 phone.
    I've got one big problem with it:
    How to cancel editing a contact? If I press RED button it saves the changes...
    Thanks

    Usually you can hit options>exit and it will cancel any changes and just exit the application completely.

  • All text tones are available in General-Sounds. Some are missing via Contacts-Edit Contact.

    I have confirmed that this issue is also present in the iPhones in the Apple store as of 28-April-2014.  I told one of the guys in the Apple store about it and he said that the iPhones in the store have a custom version, so I asked him to check his own iPhone.  He did, and the issue is present on his phone, so it's definintely a general IOS7 iPhone issue.
    If you go to General -> Sounds -> Text Tone -> Classic, you can see all the classic text tones.
    If you go to Contacts, select a contact, select Edit -> Text Tone -> select Classic, some are missing.
    I used Choo Choo for one of my contacts while I was on IOS6 and when I switched to a new phone with IOS7 and performed a restore, their text tone changed to Tri-tone.  I tried to change it back and saw it was not availble, so I figured they had taken it out of IOS7.  Then I heard a friend's iPhone 5 on IOS 7 who had Choo Choo set up as their default.  I investigated and saw that more Classic text tones were available via General.
    Is there some logical reason why some text tones are not available for Contacts?

    Do you maybe have your contacts separated into groups? If so, perhaps you have unchecked the group that the missing contact are in.
    In the Contacts app, click the Groups button in the upper left corner. Make sure all groups have a check mark next to them.

  • Cannot save contact edits?

    In my contact list, some entries I cannot save.  It will edit, but when "Done" is pushed, all changes are rejected.  The problem began when I noticed that Mail remembers incorrect e-mail addresses for some users -- incorrect and anywhere in Contacts.
    Is there a pemission problem?

    It is possibly a corrupt index in Contacts.

  • Firefox won't display contact edit page in hotmail

    I wanted to update a contact in hotmail but when I click on the contact in the list of contacts view and select the "edit" link/control on the page all I get returned is a blank page. I look at the page source and it's empty, and the status line on the bottom says "Done". The inbox and message handling pages all seem to work/display correctly but this one isn't.
    Configuration:

    Any thoughts?

  • Suggestion: contacts editing in desktop software

    As I have masses of contacts, I want to be able to easily get at them.
    Android have lots of neat ways to make it easy to search, but my new Bb Torch does not.
    Unless I'm missing something, there is no really fast way to scroll through contacts - Android gives you a fast scroll button on the screen for this.
    Editing contacts is a nightmare - they are all lumped together - whether they are either email or phone, they are still in together. They may have come from different address books, ported from gmail etc.
    Can't see a way to merge contacts - where one has an email and one has the phone numbers for example.
    It would make life easier to have a function on the desktop manager allowing the editing, merging etc of contacts.
    Also, a fast scroll button for the device itself.
    If there is anything already out there that could assist, please let me know.
    Thanks
    Miguel

    Hi and Welcome to the forums!
    "Automated" merging of contacts is always a tricky proposition...the decisions to be made during such a merge are often beyond the ability of computer code to handle. The human brain is capable of extremely complex evaluations and decisions, with variability in the results on the fly. Computer code simply can't do such things (at least not yet!).
    Further, RIM has made an intentional decision to not provide an editor as part of their Desktop Software. Rather, they provide a conduit capability to various popular desktop Organizer applications. This KB discusses those that are compatible:
    KB12268Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Software for Windows for synchronization
    Hence, the thing to do is:
    1) Choose, obtain, and install a desktop organizer from the compatible apps
    2) Conduct a 1-way synch from the BB to the desktop organizer
    3) Reconcile the data (manually) within the desktop organizer
    4) Re-synchronize to the BB and all should be well
    Good luck!

  • Contacts Edited on MacBook Fail to sync to iPod

    I edited a contact on my MacBook, synced my iPod via the cable, and the contact remained unchanged on my iPod.
    I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to fix this problem.

    The following Apple article did fix my Mac Address Book not syncing to my iPod Contacts:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2481
    The article also suggests first resetting SyncServices, but that did NOT work for me.
    But then  doing the next 28 steps suggested in the article (after resetting sync services) did solve my problem of changes in my Mac Address Book failing to sync to my iPod. Because I had some 30 Address Book Groups and thousands of contacts, this was a tedious process, but it did work.
    For some reason, this article failed to display when I searched for Apple.com for Address Book sync issues. But thankfully I found the link  in someone's discussion  on MacRumors.com. So I thought I'd post it here in case it might help others also.

  • Won't accept my contact edits!

    Anyone having trouble editing your contacts? I have done it on the phone & Verizon website & changes will not go through!  Any suggestions?

    I am having the same problem as grammaof6.  I found another thread on Microsoft that said the People hub is not compatible with Win8 devices.  It said to go to http://contacts.live.com, sign in, and edit my contacts there.
    I tried that, but my backup assistant plus contacts don't seem to be reflected there, only the ones that are from facebook. I've tried changing the filtering and everything I can think of/find online with no success. 
    Maybe this will help find a solution for grammaof6 and me as well?

  • 10.3.1 Update - Can't save Contact edits

    Hi,
    I just updated my Z10 to the new update, and now when I try to edit any of my contacts and save the changes I get a message: "Enter a phone number or work email address" and it returns to the edit contact screen. Does anyone have a suggestion?
    I've tried entering new fields but get the same message. The Cancel button works, but then I can't save the modifications.
    Andrew

    I do not understand your description in the message dated 12 hours ago, that's why I am asking again.
    so, you took my link, and proceeded with the installation. at some point, since it is an Android app, you get a white big popup where you choose the permissions. Do you confirm that you had that white big popup ?

  • Contacts Edit Label E7 N8 C7 S60^3

    EDIT LABEL feature in the Contacts Management fields ... *** VERY IMPORTANT *** We need this main feature. Remarks: from development side enable this is very simple. The Contacts database structure are ready. Its amatter add it in the menu and pop-up edit field window with saving. Nokia should return this feature back, if they remove it for integration issue, they should rebuild the integration structure and put the new standered, not to go back, e.g) iphone add this feature under user define fields type!! Hope Nokia will put it back sooner...

    Hi,
    Being Nokia loyal, I am really feeling constraint with E7 without edit label feature.
    Also, the number of touches have gone up, while dialing a number from directory;
    Looks like, life has become more difficult and painful to keep using E7; while the new toy/device/instrument is lovely;

  • Why doesn't my contact editing work?

    When I try to update contact relations my only options are "spouse," "manager," and "assistant." My boyfriend has the same phone (iPhone 4S iOS 5.0.1) but he can list siblings and parents. Also, he has the option to list a number as an iPhone and I do not.
    Does anyone have any idea what's going on?

    on (rollOver) {
        gotoAndPlay("p1");
    on (releaseOutside, rollOut, dragOut) {
        gotoAndPlay("p2");
    on (release) {
    trace(_parent+" "+_parent.f_name);
        _parent.f_name.text = "";
        _parent.mail.text = "";
        _parent.mess.text = "";

  • Add field not showing in contacts edit screen

    Trying to add nick names to the contact list in IPhone 6, but the "add field" prompt is not showing. Tips?

    Well first of all PL10 has some addon-issues (I don't think they affect Screen Painter since that is only UI-API but I would not recommend it...)
    Regarding the problem...
    What you should try to do is go to "C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One" (Perhaps "C:\Program Files\SAP Manage\SAP Business One") and delete or rename files "AddOnsInstall.sbo" and "AddOnsLocalRegistration.sbo".. These files controls installed addons on the client, and if you remove them the addon will try to reinstall the addon...
    Also try to go to %temp%\SM_OBS_DLL and delete/rename this as well... Controls versions of the SDK and there might be some left-overs from older versions
    If that not work try to go to the SARI table in the SBO-Common and delete the record regarding the Screen Painter
    If all the fails the old trick to uninstall the SDK, DI-API and client and reinstall them again sometimes solves the problems... (I know... Lots of things can go wrong in SBo and I've seen most of them)

  • Help with Automating Contact Editing Please!

    Hey Apple Community!
    I'm having some trouble organizing my contacts and sorting info fields.
    Basically I have a few hundred contacts, and certain fields of the information should be in others.
    Here's some of the things I want to change.
    First and foremost, after I imported Facebook information (either from OS X Facebook integration or iOS') it put most of the contact information in the Notes field.
    Most of the notes are structured like this:
    Note
    "Quote from Facebook blah blah" -if it exists
    Location: City, State
    Facebook: profile.name
    Website:
    Hometown: City, State
    However, the actual Facebook field is blank!
    How can I go about fixing this? I would like an automated option such as AppleScript or an Automator Workflow if possible since I have a lot of contacts.
    Second, after importing LinkedIn information into my contacts, those who are updated have their "Home Page" set as linkedin://#profile/xxxxxxxxx.
    I would like these moved into a field called "LinkedIn" since that way selecting them will automatically open up the LinkedIn app on iOS or a webpage on the desktop.
    I have attemped at making an AppleScript for this, and it runs without errors but doesn't fix the problem.
    Here's what I have:
    tell application "Contacts"
              repeat with thisPerson in every person
                        if thisPerson's home page exists then
                                       set linked to thisPerson's nickname
                       set thisPerson's LinkedIn to linked
                             end if
              end repeat
    end tell
    And there are a multitude of other problems, but these are the biggest.
    Sorry for the long post, but I would be greatful for any help, thanks!
    Regards,
    Tyler

    Third party app did the trick although I figured something like this would be integrated into iOS by now, admin can delete this thread if you want.

  • E7-00 contact edit: not possible to paste a phone ...

    Gentlemen,
    As said in the topic, it's not possible to paste a phone number together with the + sign in front of the country code. Instead you need to add + manually and paste the rest of the number. It means that when selecting the phone number text you need to make sure you miss out the + sign before hitting CTRL-C.

    Is it common?
    Since 1610

    Don't know if this is a solution as I only have personal Email on my phone, but when I set the email widget it is populated by Hotmail account (the first one I set up, and coincidentally my main email address) then if I chose inbox within the widget I can open and view my Ovi Mail account, which I use a lot less. My theory being , that if you were to remove all your mailboxes and then set them up again, setting up the mailbox you want as default first, it may be close to what you actually want !
    Hope someone can give you a better and more technically approved solution,
    Good Luck
