Contact Picture Droid X

How can I set a picture that I have downloaded from an email into the phone files to a contact pic?  I go through the same steps as setting one from the gallery except that I select "files".  Works fine when I select a gallery photo, but not when I choose a photo from files...most are jpeg.  It just never takes effect!  Please help!

Try moving the photo to your DCIM folder in your phone, where your pictures that were taken with your camera normally reside.
So go to "Files" or "My Files" on the droid x, it's an app that is preinstalled, go to phone files or phone storage.  Locate the photo that was emailed to you.  Select it, select move, go to your DCIM folder, make sure that you can see the rest of your pictures here, click move again.  this will place the photo in your camera gallery and make the phone think that you took this photo.  Then you should be able to assign it as a contact pic.
Hope this helps!

  • Contact Pictures Missing

    I have a 4 year old that will pick up my phone when im not looking. Im not sure what happened to my contacts however, all my pictures to my saved favorites contacts and a lot of additional contact pictures are missing. I had them synced with Facebook. I see she deleted my facebook from my accounts, so I added it again. However not all the contact pictures are syncing back up with my phone.  Any suggestions on how to fix this so I can get my pictures back for my contacts?

    cduffy, I know how children can be interested in a cell phone because of how much fun they are so I totally understand. I am happy you were able to resolve your issue. Please let us know what steps you took to figure this one out. I wanted to list below some steps to merge your contact information from facebook with your phone.
    The Motorola Droid contact list application uses an intelligent merge feature to combine contact information from various sources (Gmail, Microsoft Exchange, Facebook, new entries, etc.).
    From the home screen, select the applications tab (located on the bottom of the screen).
    Select Contacts.
    Select the Contacts tab then select the desired contact.
    Select Menu.
    Select Edit contact.
    Select Menu.
    Select Join.
    Select the contact.
    Information from these contacts will be merged and be displayed as one contact.
    Verify the contact information has merged correctly (e.g. phone numbers, email address, etc.) then select Done.

  • HT1386 I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S).  I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone.  But not sure how to do that.

I'm assuming it's trying to tell me I have an older iTunes Library, but don't know that.  Geez, maybe people over 60 shouldn't have iPhones, iTunes just bafles me.

  • My computer crashed and I have to get my data from my old drive to another computer, to ensure I get all my data what do I need to get.  I have and ipad and an iphone.  I need to get apps, contacts, pictures, etc.  Is there a way to do this?

    My computer crashed and I have to get my data from my old drive to another computer, to ensure I get all my data what do I need to get.  I have and ipad and an iphone.  I need to get apps, contacts, pictures, etc.  Is there a way to do this? It was a vista pc and the new is win 7. I can grab the backup files, and music, but what about my apps? I do not want to sync on the new pc since the apps aren't there.  Were are the app files located in itunes? Can I just copy them to the new computer?

    You can transfer itunes purchases:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • My iPhone has my old email set up throught iCloud. How do I reset my new username with the device without deleting everything. And if I have to delete my old account, will everything (contacts, pictures, games, apps, etc.) be erased from my phone.

    My iPhone has my old email set up throught iCloud. How do I reset my new username with the device without deleting everything. And if I have to delete my old account, will everything (contacts, pictures, games, apps, etc.) be erased from my phone.

    Your old ID connects to an icloud account containing all your data (email, contacts, etc.)  If you then use a different ID, you will connect to a different account, which results in losing all your "apple" data, like emails, contacts, calendars, etc.
    However, Apple IDs are also used to connect to an itunes store account, with is different.  You can keep using the old itunes store ID to keep all your purchases (but if you change to a different ID, you will lose all purchased items) and use the new ID for icloud (but losing emails, contacts, etc. from the old account).

  • I erased everything on my iphone and lost all my contacts pictures and everything how do i get all that back from my itunes account??

    I erased everything on my iphone and lost all my contacts pictures and everything else how do i get the contacts and pictures back from my itunes account?? ive tried restore its like it gave me a whole new iphone thing.

    If you plug in the iPhone to your computer, any contacts ect that you synced with your computer with sync back with the iPhone when it is selected in the iTunes menu under info. Anything that was added without syncing was lost, I'm sorry. A good future solution is to get iOS 5 when it comes out this fall, so you don't need to manually sync contacts, its automatic!

  • How do I get my contacts from Droid Bionic to iphone 4?

    How do I get my contacts from Droid Bionic to iphone 4?

        Centurion, congrats on your upgrade! I'm sure you'll enjoy the iPhone 4. There are several ways to transfer your contacts. First, are your contacts backed up to either Hotmail/Live or Google? If so, then you can setup that account as Microsoft Exchange account on your iPhone. For Hotmail/Live, http://bit.ly/14VLVIV. For Google, http://bit.ly/XzDaRC.
    Let me know if you need further assistance, or have your contacts saved another way.

    - You do have iTunes version 11 on the computer, right. Saying the latest is not sufficient.
    - Have you tried everthing here:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - You should
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    Your library/media will not be affected.
    - Does the iPod charge?

  • Lost all contacts, pictures, and videos on ios 7, syncing iphone to itunes/icloud how do i restore it back, lost all contacts, pictures, and videos on ios 7, syncing iphone to itunes/icloud how do i restore it back

    I updated itunes 11.1.5 and I accidently restored all my settings back to my old phone that was backed up onto my computer, I lost everything that was set up on my phone, contacts, pictures, videos, emails...etc.. how do I get my old setup back without doing a factory data reset?

    Restore the device again using the most recent backup.
    If there is no more recent backup and the pictures were not copied off the device prior to the original restore, they are gone.  Same goes for videos taken with the device.
    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service, simply sync them back. 
    Any content acquired from iTunes should be on iTunes on the computer, simply sync it back.

  • Contact Pictures not displaying in texts...

    At some point yesterday my contact pictures has stopped showing up in text messages. They still appear when calls are placed and in the actual contact information, but no longer are in texts. I have restarted my phone and also shut it off for over an hour to try to get them to reload. Any suggestions on how to fix this or why this may have happend. They were there yesterday morning then just stopped showing up...

    Thank you for your reply. These were contact pictures that I had specifically gone in and set for contacts (I.E. for my brother there is a picture of my nephew as his contact picture). I had to delete the pictures from the contacts and then just re-assign them, seems to be working perfectly fine now. I'm sure it was just some sort of glitch.

  • Contact pictures not displaying in Lync 2011 for Mac

    Using Lync 2011 for Mac I'm not seeing any contact pictures (including my own), though I can see them when signed into Lync 2013 on a Windows PC (7, 8.1, and 10 Technical Preview for Enterprises).
    My company uses O365 hosted Exchange and on premise Lync Server.
    I'm using OSX 10.10.1 (on a 2014 Air) and Lync for Mac 2011 14.0.10 (141024). I have AutoUpdate set to automatically check weekly and I manually checked (button at the bottom of Microsoft AutoUpdate) so I believe I'm running the current release.
    Logging in with another user account on my same Mac/Lync install has the same issue
    Another user account on their own Mac also has the same issue
    It's also worth noting that the same issue arises when signing into Lync for Android and iOS as well, but not on Windows (Lync 2013).
    Any thoughts? Thank you very much for your time and assistance.
    Also, my apologies for putting this question in this subforum, but I didn't see any main forum for Office for Mac or Lync 2011 or Lync for Mac at all. If there is such here on technet, please drop the link here and I'll move the thread.

    Hi abacus02,
    On mobile, you have no control over how photos are displayed. Lync Mobile can only display photos retrieved from Active Directory or SharePoint, it cannot display a photo from a URL. If a user
    is displaying a photo from a URL and there is a photo in AD, it will display the photo from AD. If there is no photo in AD, it will display no photo at all.
    About Lync for Mac, as I know Lync 2011 for Mac does not support high resolution images. Only in Lync 2013,
    In Lync 2013, when the user’s photo experience has been migrated to Exchange 2013 and they are using Lync 2013, high resolution photos can be used.
    So please tell us where the photos are stored, we need more information to troubleshoot the issue.
    Best regards,
    Eric
