Contacts not showing on incoming calls

Hi. I have a 9300. I do not subscribe to call display with my carrier provider, but used to get a picture of the person calling me if they were one of my contacts. I plugged my phone into my computer and got all the updates it suggested. Now when someone calls from my contacts, it just shows them as unknown. Anyone know how to get this working again? Thanks so much!

I had the same issue. I just visited the Apple store today. He switched my keyboard settings from english to french and back again. That corrected my issue. Hope this can help you, too!

Try to restore your iphone via iTunes or update to ios6.1.2.
If itunes gives an error with restoring (DFU/Recovery or just normal)
try this:
open your computer and search on windows; C://windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
open up the hosts file in note pad you will see IP adresses and more add another line and put in this:
#74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
this is a by-pass to the cydia/saurik restore server, it has nothing to do with jailbreaking over voiding apple's warranty
let me know if succeeded!

Blackberry Z10 Contact names not showing on incoming calls

My blackberry Z10 is not showing the contact names when I receive an incoming call. My country code also correctly selected. Contacts are not duplicated also. But contacts without the leading 0 is showing

Hi mhusni,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community.
When using the country code included in the phone number field of contacts, you may not be able to see contact names on incoming calls even though the country code is correct.
This KB article may provide more information. "Caller ID does not show associated contact when country code is included in phone number" http://blackberry.com/btsc/KB33685
Let me know if you have any other questions.

Contact names not showing with incoming calls!!!

Hi all,
I just got my E71-1 yesterday and upgraded from a very effiecient E61i....everything was going smooth until all of a sudden, contact names stopped appearing with incoming calls and SMS's.
I went through the forums searching for a solutions and apparently alot of people experienced the same thing.....except in my case, I do not have any duplicate names or numbers!!!!
Any ideas what could solve this???

There is a fix for it but you won't like it. I have tried it a few times and it always works but it involves a lot of work. This is what you do.
1. Make a backup of nothing else but your contacts only.
2. Delete all your contacts from both phone and sim card.
3. Start by entering the troublesome contacts from scratch making sure not to duplicate any numbers.
4. Now get those people to ring you to make sure that your CLI is working fine.
5. If it works then start entering the rest of the numbers, once again making sure there is no duplication whatsoever.
6. If it doesn't work, just restore the backup you made of your contacts.
I am fairly sure it will work, but just in case it doesn't you can always restore your backup and you are back to square one.

Contacts not showing when others call me

I've just got my z10 and used my exchange account in activeSync mode and every thing worked fine, the issue is when someone calls me his name is not showing up, also if I dial a saved number the phone the name don't show up, what is this issue ???

I had similar issue with the text messages not showing sender's name. Go to Settings > security and privacy > sim card > edit phone number and I wrote my number without the country area code and it worked fine!

I did the latest update and now my contact info does not show on incoming calls or text

can anyone assist?

Company Names Not Showing In Incoming Calls

Hi there.
Been loving my time with the Z10, but there is something that makes me crazy.
I have a lot of contacts, and a lot of them with the same name. One of the ways to see who is calling me was in my old BB9320 the company name of the caller.
In the Z10 i can't figure out why it isn't an option.
Is there any way to show the company name when someone is calling me?
Thanks

I'm afraid not!
Could be a great new feature though.

No Contact Names or Pics Showing for Incoming Calls?

I just got my phone yesterday. I have clean sync with my MacBook Pro. I thought that contact names should show for all incoming calls if that person and number are in my contacts. I also thought a photo would show if there was a photo in the contact as well.
???

I had a problem somewhat similar when I first bought my IPhone as well. My iPhone would show the numbers in international format with the 011 in front of all the numbers which made the contacts not show up when calls were incoming. I had to contact AT&T and spent 4 hours on the phone until someone actually figured out what was wrong and fixed it in less than 3 mins. It wasn't even the iPhone it had to do with the phone I previously had through Cingular/AT&T. The person said it was some sort of provisioning or something like that with some incorrect settings that screwed with the incoming calls only. This problem also would make the contact picture not show up as well for anyone in your list. This might help or maybe it won't. Good Luck figuring it all out. I still love my iPhone and haven't had too many problems with it

Contacts not showing up on incoming calls although it is stored on my iPhone 5

contacts not showing up on incoming calls although it is stored on my iPhone 5

There could be any one of three solutions... Try these:
1. Make sure you set your own country code at Phone Dialer Screen > Options > Smart dialing.
Set your country code in this format: "+xx" where xx = your country code. Some countries have two or three digit Country Codes. Do not place the '+' in your contact's entry.
* In the US, set this Country Code as "+1", and place your loca area code in the proper box (this normally the default setting in a new BB).
2. At the same location, change the National Number Length to the number of digits for your country (since some countries will have less than 10 as set as the default in the BB). Find out the total digits, minus the country code. Do not place the '+' in your contact's entry.
* For example, some countries have a total number to 8 (plus 3 for country code). You would enter "8".
3. You may have "Content Protection" set on your Address Book.
Look at Options > Security > General Settings. Scroll down to Content Protection > Include Address Book = NO.
On your device, it could be at Options > Password.

How to show company name and contact name on the incoming calls of iPhone 4

Kindly provide me with a useful solution of how to show company name and contact name on the incoming calls of iPhone4.
even with an application or from the setting of the iPhone itself, but without telling me a solution like writting the company name in the contact name field.
This is a very important option, i think it is a must, not an option and apple should fix this problem fastly. because it is already available in the older models of iPhone like iPhone 3G and 3GS.
How an important feature like this could be available in old models, but in the later models is not available?

Currently not possible without putting the company name in the contact name's field. AFAIK, it's never been available on any iOS version.
You might check the App Store for an app that can do this although I'm pretty sure you won't find one.

Contacts not showing up

Im having a problem with my iphone 4. My contacts are in my phone when i search for them and also show up in my recent calls and text messages. However, whenever i touch contacts to bring up the list none of them are there. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Hello everyone!
For all of you out there who have received phone calls, text messages, etc, and have tried adding a contact by means other than directly via the contacts app only to have your contact not show up ANYWHERE (except maybe in a spotlight search), this quick troubleshooting guide is for you.
Disclaimers: This can be performed on an Apple computer, I do not troubleshoot for PC's (however, anyone who knows their way around computers can easily modify the steps for a PC). This method can also be used if you sync your contacts via MobileMe like I do, and should work for the iPhone 3G, 3GS, and 4. I have the latest OS on my iPhone, but it should work with any recent OS. My iTunes has been updated to the most recent version.
Step 1: Open Address Book on your mac. Make sure your address book view is extended to show your groups in the left column. Under groups, everyone will have a group labeled "All Contacts". If that's the only group you have, it's time to create another one. Click the "+" at the bottom of your group column and name your new group whatever you want. For my purposes (as this was an iPhone issue), I named my new group "iPhone Contacts". Do not add any contacts from "All Contacts" to your new group, as this will be unnecessarily redundant. Close Address Book, you're done with it.
Step 2: Open iTunes and plug in your iPhone. Hopefully you have your settings to manually sync when you plug your iPhone into iTunes, otherwise wait until it's synced to continue. Click the "Info" tab in iTunes. The first option is Sync Address Book Contacts. Make sure this option is checked. Under the first subheading, make sure "All contacts" is checked. Below the groups box, there will be a line that says "Add contacts created outside of groups on this iPhone to:" and make sure this is checked as well. (Bonus info- Unless you created a contact directly via the contacts app on your iPhone, that contact ends up in another list. This is why you can't see it right now.) At this moment is where that new contact group you created in Address Book comes into play. Use the drop-down menu to the right of this option to select that group (remember mine was "iPhone Contacts"). Do not change anything else. Now click "Sync" in the bottom right corner of iTunes.
Step 3: Once your iPhone is synced, open the Contacts app on your iPhone. If it opens to a contact list, tap the "Groups" button in the upper left corner of the screen. You should see two or three sections. The top section will simply be "All Contacts". The second section will be titled "From My Mac" and will display both "All from My Mac" and the new group you created in Address Book. If you use MobileMe, you will have a third section titled "[email protected]", under which your MobileMe contact group will fall. Make sure you tap the top group, "All Contacts". You will find those "missing" contacts now listed among all your other ones.
Bonus: If you find you have duplicate contact names but neither contact has a full information card, you can edit the contact, scroll to the bottom and tap the "Link contacts" button, then link your duplicates to insure you have all the info you want.
Success!! If you have any questions, let me know.

HT4528 my ringer will not sound with incoming calls, please help

my iphone 4s will not ring with incoming calls. any ideas on how i can fix it?

Try sliding the button that is above the volume up and down buttons to see if you have it muted.

TS2634 My iPhone 4s does not ring for incoming calls. Ring tone is set/settings/sound. It used to ring. I think it has to do with updating to IOS 7.0.4? After updating IOS 7.0.3 my microphone stopped working. Had to clear/reload.

My iPhone 4s does not ring for incoming calls. Ring tone set and used to ring. I think it has something to do with updating the IOS 7.0.4. When I updated to 7.0.3 the microphone stopped working. Had to call Apple Support and cleared phone and reloaded. ($57 charge). Any suggestions?

Start with your finger at the bottom of the screen (about even with the home button) and swipe in an upward motion. There should be a row of icons at the top of a grey field. if the quarter-moon icon is bright white, tap it. If it was (and still is) dark, take the iPhone in to be evaluated by a qualified technician.
