Contact picture when dialing

When dialing a number from my "contacts" the picture shows up underneath the overlay. Everyone else's phones I have seen (including the ones in the Apple Stores) show the contact picture at the top of the screen next the name. How can I get my iPhone to do this? I have a 16GB, 3G, and 2.0.2 update. Thanks.

  • Contact Picture when phone is ringing.

    I have a question I need assistance with.  My iPhone when receiving calls are only showing my contact pictures in thumbprint and not in full size.  How can I can that?

    This is a change that came about with iOS 7.1. There is no change that can be done. You may provide feedback to Apple at www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link.

  • Contact pictures when receiving phone calls

    I have some contacts which have pictures directly taken with my iPhone and naturally they display full screen when receiving a call. Other contacts however have imported pictures which display as thumbnails when I receive a call.
    Is there a way to either have them all display as thumbnails (other than using pictures not takes with the iPhone)?
    Thanks for any input on this.

    According to wjosten in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2502247
    Contact pictures assigned on your computer & then synced to your phone will appear as thumbnails, while contact pictures assigned directly on your phone will appear full size.
    This was in 3.1.3, but it should be similar in 4.0, although I haven't had a chance to test it yet.
    Thanks, yes, that is still the case.
    What I am trying to accomplish is, that ALL pictures show up as thumbnail. So, with all your replies it seems like the only way to do this would be to save the picture on the PC and then re-sync them.

  • Is it possible to show my contacts pictures when they text/sms?

    Hi,
    This could be one of those questions for things that only seem to happen on the TV. But is is possible to have a contact picture appear when I receive a sms from a contact who is already stored in my phone. I know you can do this when a call is received, but wondered if it can be done when they text.
    Cheers 

    Sorry, no. You can suggest Apple add that feature here:

  • Nokia E52 display caller's name and contact pictur...

    Can someone advise me on possible problem with my E52 - I am very pleased with most aspects of the phone but it is not showing the name of the caller or the contact picture when I receive a call (just the number).
    Surely it is standard for every Nokia phone to show name of caller? I know S Ericsson phones show name and picture for both call and text. Nokias should at lease display the name?
    Can anyone please advise on this?
    Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

  • Okay...what happened to the full screen contact picture?

    Okay...what happened to the full screen contact picture? Is there a way to get it back? I'd like to see the full picture of the person I'm  calling-not just an ugly blank screen with little round circles on it!!!!

    I wrote my feedback there. Please everyone leave your feedback. The new 7.1 design is very impractical.
    Why they crave so much about these ugly circles? There are lots of unused space available on the screen.
    Please bring back the big rectangular buttons!!!!!!
    And full-screen contact picture when someone's calling.

  • Contact Pictures in Address Book Vanish When dragged to Exchange Server ???

    Forgive me in advance if this has been solved and then please direct me to the right link - however this problem is really becoming a deal breaker for me because so much of my intranet software pulls from contact images
    I have a brand new Macbook Pro clean installation and after setting it up I linked it to my 07 Exchange server and pulled down my contacts it worked flawlessly and i thought all was well - Every field including the notes section and pictures transferred.
    Then when I edited pictures in address book contacts under the on my mac section and copied them to my exchange address book the contact transfers but the picture is missing - after the initial transfer of contacts from my exchange server it happens vice versa also if i take a contact on my exchange server with a picture and drag it to address book (in the address book application) it deletes the picture
    Alot of my applications pull from my exchange contact database and I rely heavily when replying to calls or messages at looking at the picture when it pops up on my screen
    Apple support said they are sort of aware of this issue and there is a work around but they dont know what it is ??? and recommended that i ask on the forum
    Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated Im at my wits end or does address book just not work right ? - Oh and one more thing when clicking on a contact on the exchange server from address book i can edit a contact but i cant edit the picture field either
    Someone tell me something'
    Thanks

    I'm having the exact same problem... worked fine until I did a clean install Last week.
    anyone figured out a fix or workaround ?

  • Contact picture does not appear when receiving incoming call

  • Contact Picture size when iPhone rings

    My wife's iPhone 3G displays a contact's picture differently than mine and we can't figure out why.
    When her phone rings from a contact where a picture is stored, the Wallpaper is displayed large in the middle and the contact's name and picture is displayed small across the top.
    How can we set her iPhone to display the contact picture full size?

    Here's what you need to do.
    In iPhoto set up a new album. I named mine "Contacts". In this album put all the photos you'd like to use for your contacts. I suggest 1200x1600 sized photos because that's what the iPhone photos are (so you'll get a consistent experience).
    In iTunes, sync this album to your iPhone.
    On the iPhone, go to Photos, and select a photo and push the button on the bottom left of the screen. Select "Assign to Contact".
    Once you've found the appropriate contact it will now appear full screen when you receive a call.
    Hope that helps!

  • How to set images to your contacts to see their picture when there calling? Like their facebook picture.

    How to set images to your contacts to see thier picture when someone is calling? Like for instance facebook picture.(on the iPHONE 4s)

    You can manually add a photo to each contact on your iPhone - from an existing photo of the contact on your iPhone or capture a photo of the contact when together. Or add a photo for each contact in the address book app on your computer that is supported for syncing contacts with the iPhone followed by a sync.
    For FaceBook check this link, which I found with a Google search.

  • When i downloaded itunes to my husbands iphone all of his contacts,pictures erased and downloaded my contacts and pictures. how can i reset all his information? please help

    When I downloaded my Itunes list to my husbands IPhone, all of his contacts, pictures erased and MY contacts and pictures downloaded to his phone. How can I restore or get back his information to his phone?

    He needs to restore his phone using the computer he normally syncs with. He also needs to pay more attention to the prompts he gets before he just clicks on "OK"...
    There is no way to "undo" this. Sounds like he plugged it into a computer he'd never synced with before and it offered to restore from an existing backup... yours.

    Where did you get the device?  Is it possible that it has an IT policy on the device blocking Facebook and/or Facebook options?  Look in Options >Security Options >General Settings (actual menu paths vary with OS version) and see if there is any reference to IT policy.
