Contacts and the Mapping Application

Hi all,
After entering the appropriate address information against my contacts, the iPone3g allows you to click on the address and it tries to find it using google maps (it may have done this in iPhone v1 I don't know, sorry) by opening the Map application.
However I usually get an error saying that the location could not be found.
Why would this be if I have put in every address element including the House Number, Street Name, Town, County ,Postcode, and Country into Contacts?.
Is it a limitation with google maps or the iphone mapping application?

It is a limitation of Google Maps.
Saddly Google Maps does not know how to disregard redundent information.
Also, the Google Maps database is not complete.
HOWEVER, it is far more comprehensive than most map systems out on the Web.
Report the problem to Google if it presists.

    if i update itunes will i lose my apps and contacts and the other contents?

    No.  In fact, it is possible to uninstall iTunes and then re-install iTunes without losing any content.
    Removing, updating, and repairing the application has no affect on the media stored on the system.

  • I'm too old to learn iCal.  How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad??  Thanks

    I'm too old to learn iCal.  How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad?? 
    Also, once I figure out how to replace iCal with Outlook/Mac on iTunes, how do I synch the phone and pad so that the information on those devices over-writes onto Outlook as a backup, rather than having a blank Calendar on Outlook wipe out all of the information on the phone and pad???
    Thanks

    If you haven't tried already, plug your devices into iTunes, and on each device next to the "Summary" tab at the top is another tab called "Info." Click that and scroll down to Contacts, Calendars, etc. There should be a pull down bar under each category for "Sync contacts from..." and you should be able to select from that pull down list Outlook.  Hit Apply at the bottom and see if that does it.

  • My macbook is loaded with microsoft work and every time I try and open the program I get an error reading and it will not open.  Powerpoint and the other applications still respond!

    my macbook is loaded with microsoft word for macs and every time I try and open the program I get an error reading and it will not open. This is what it says:
    The application Microsof Word quit eunexpectedly.  Powerpoint and the other applications still respond!

    The joys of Microsoft!
    Maybe the preferences file is corrupted.  You should be able to find the Word preferences file in the folder:
    your user name/Library/Preferences
    Its name is com.microsoft.Word.plist
    I suggest you drag this another folder and try Word again. 
    If that doesn't work then you might find clearing the cache files will fix the problem.  You can do this manually but I never bother. Instead I use a program like Snow Leopard Cache Cleaner (shareware) or Onyx (free). These programs do lots of other maintenance jobs so it's worth having at least one of them.

    Try downloading another app - any free app - that seems to reset something and the apps may start working again. Try that first. If that doesnt work, try these steps
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Close all apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • I installed the system update to 10.7.3. After re-booting, my mail file was missing from the dock.  Looked in applications and the mail application is missing. Any thoughts?

    Thanks Paul; but, taking your suggestion didn't solve the problem.  As mail is part of the OS, the updates don't have the capacity to reinstall applications; so, I had to reinstall the OS.  I now have my mail back (although it didn't appear on the dock--I had to go to applications and activate it and then put it back in the dock.  Thanks again for trying.

    I can't text a contact but can voice phone them. I don't have the problem with any other contact and the contact is not blocked. I have an iphone5.0 OS 8.1.3. I used to be able to text them with no problem. The only difference I can think is that this problem may have started since I downloaded the OS I am using now

  • Crawl issue - warning: "This URL is part of a host header SharePoint deployment and the search application is not configured to crawl individual host header sites. This will be crawled as a part of ....a start address"

    Hello all,
    I have a multi-tenant environment in SharePoint 2010 server. Different tenants are hosted by one web app.
    One content source has been created to crawl the all shared environment. (the only URL added in the content source settings = URL of the
     web app)
    Crawl everything under the hostname for each start address has been selected when creating this content source.
    Now I have created a new tenant hosted by the same web app. For this new tenant I want to have a different crawl schedule. Simple , I just create a new content source and add the host URL of this tenant. With the same settings has the other content source.
    After having started a full crawl I get 0 success and 1 warning : “This URL is part of a host header SharePoint deployment and the search application is not configured to crawl
    individual host header sites. This will be crawled as a part of the host header Web application if configured as a start address.”
    The first content source is well crawling the new tenant freshly created. Could you tell me where I’m wrong?
    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    Baldo

    Baldo,
    In the configuration that you described you now have 2 content sources set to crawl the same content. If you have a content source with a start address of http://servername/ then it is going to crawl everything past that address. If you are now changing
    the crawl schedule based on the individual site collections, you will need to move your start addresses further down the URL.
    For Example:
    1st Content Source:
    http://servername/ as a start address would now become
    http://servername/site1
    http://servername/site2
    2nd Content Source:
    http://servername/site3
    Also remember that all crawling must happen on the default zone. If you are trying to crawl a zone that the web application has been extended into, that will not work.

    I have just completed a long document and the Pages application quit unexpectedly.  Is is lost irretrievably?

    Yes, unless you've saved manually or have autosave software for it installed, which is only preloaded when using the latest Pages version on Mac OS X 10.7.
    Save your work frequently.

  • Can the JNLP and the jarred application be on different servers

    Can the JNLP and the jarred application be on different servers? If so, how would I alter my JNLP file to include the url of the second server?
    The reason I ask this is that my app is being uploaded to a shopping cart, to be available for purchase. The problem is that this shopping cart allows ONLY one upload for each item that's available for purchase, and the vendor of my shopping cart say that for security reasons I cannot store files in other places on that server. The problem is that I need the JNLP and the JAR for download. I thought that the simplest solution is to put the JAR on a different server, and in the jnlp specify the URL of the jar. Is that possible? Or, do you see another solution?
    I appreciate your help - I REALLY need to take care of this ASAP!
    Here's my jnlp:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <jnlp
    spec="1.0+"
    codebase="http://server_where_jnlp_is/subdir/"
    href="myjnlp.jnlp">
    <information>
    <title>Title</title>

    <jar href="myapp.jar"/>
    <nativelib href="libs.jar"/>
    </resources>
    <application-desc />
    </jnlp>

    I worked it out! What I did was I changed the jar href and the nativelib href to point to a different server
    eg:
    changed <jar href="myapp.jar"/>
    to
    <jar href="http://www.otherserver.com/myapp.jar"/>

    You can transfer your purchases before you start, to make sure all apps and purchased media is part of your iTunes library on your computer.
    All other data which is part of the backup will be missing, see more details about the content here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    This article explains how to transfer your other data: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    If you have corrupt data inside the backup, this is the only way to find out. If the behavior does not change, you can use the backup again to get all your settings back.

  • How Standalone OC4J and the Oracle Application Server linked to each other

    Hi ,
    Please let me know what is the relation between a Standalone OC4J and the Oracle Application Server ?
    In my application The Oracle Application Server is installed in C drive and there is a Stand alone oC4j .
    Please tell me how they are linked to each other .
    Thank you .

    It depends on your need and what features and functionality of Oracle Application Server you are interested in. Note that OC4J is a component of Oracle Application Server that can run as a standalone component or within Oracle Application Server. Question #6 in earlier mentioned FAQ document states:
    OC4J standalone is J2EE 1.3 compatible (1.4 and 1.5 too in later releases of OC4J) and is able to be used in both development and small scale production environments. OC4J standalone provides its own inbuilt HTTP/S listener to allow clients to execute Web applications that it has deployed. Application deployment and server configuration of OC4J standalone is performed by the manual editing of a simple set of XML files.
    For large scale enterprise deployments, the Oracle Application Server product is likely to be more suitable with its comprehensive feature set including Oracle HTTP Server, process monitoring and management capabilities, and its configuration and management console.
    So if you are happy with what you see in standalone OC4J and scalability isn't an issue for you, you can stay with standalone OC4J and don't need to move to Oracle Application Server.
    PS: If you do decide to use OC4J that's embedded with Oracle Application Server, you can't move your standalone OC4J inside Oracle Application Server. You will have to reconfigure embedded OC4J again (as you might have done with standalone OC4J) and redeploy your applications.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks
