Contacts randomly un-link

Hi, recently contacts on my iphone are unlinking, however only a few are:
Doctors
Work
Rattle and Drum
These always unlink their iphone and exchange contacts, every few hours I have to re-link them. All of the information is the same on each linked contact.
What's causing the issue and how can I stop it?

Hey taylot-tomt,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the post.
Can you clarify which custom fields did not transfer over, so I can investigate further?
I look forward to your reply.
Thank you.

Contacts app automatic Link - serious problem

I used the stock software for Sony Xperia Z2.
I am incredibly frustrated with the way the contacts app links contacts randomly and without my input.
Every now and again I have to delete all the contect on the Contacts app so I stop getting the "unfortunatelly contacts has sttopped" messate.
Everytime i do it, the application decides to link together contacts that are not at all related following some random set of rules. Funny enough, the links the application decides to stablish don't happen in the same way everytime everytime I do it.
This means that I spend more time sorting my phone contacts than enjoying my "top of the range" phone.
My Nexus S, more than four years old and running on 4.4.4, doesn't suffer any problems like this with the default contacts application.
Is there any way I can disable the automatic linking option from my phone?? Because that would be ideal!!!
Kind Regards,
Javi

I'm afraid i don't know of any way to disable linking of contacts but i will forward this internally as feedback.

Re Create the task:
1. Open Safari
2. Go to the desired website/address
3. Click the send icon at the bottom (Square with arrow pointed up)
4. Click Message
5. Add contact in "To:" line
6. Hit send
It locks up and lags here on me and the message never shows up at the contacts phone/imessage/etc.

Hi,

After your restart your Mac, click the Apple  menu (top left in your screen) then click: Software Update ...

Transfer Z10 contacts to Q10, link does not copy everything.

I sued the Blackberry link to trasnfer the Z10 data to the Q10 but quite a few peoples numbers just show up with out their name. Does anyone know what the problem is? I have tried everything and I am tired. I just want my Q10 to work like the Z10.
Any help would be appreciated. All the data and apps transferred fine, contacts seem to be a problem. Could it be contacts that had "links" made?
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

i did use the latest Link, and upgraded Q10 to the latest OS available, but stil it says there is no device detected, please try to ensure that the device is on and connected.... this happen after the device is detected by Link and i press restore ...
i gave hope on BlackBerry, what kind of company who releases products which is unstable unreliable (BB10) bugs everywhere, even the Link software is annoying didn't it occur to them thay MAYBE we wanna switch from Z10 to Q10 and MAYBE wanna switch back to Z10 and without loosing any of important data we have, ohhh not to mention, open chats also gone on every attempt switching devices...
i'm back on OS7.1 devices now, i think if this company (RIM) keeps delivering products and no support at all like this, we are all gonna stop buying it right? they are basically sending away the old customers who needs the reliability of BlackBerry as a smartphone to supports our jobs and bussiness, we don't care about games or even **bleep**ty apps on BB world, WE JUST WANT OUR DATA SAFE ON EACH TRANSFER OF DEVICES, AND PLEASE WHERE IS THE PROTECT FOR BB10 USERS?
sorry i have to make it in capitals, i'm desperate

Change contact e-mail link

Hello.
how do I change the contact e-mail link in a folder? Thus: where does portal get this e-mailaddress from? I thought in the user account info. But when i clear it there, the conatct link still is the same...
Thx.

Hi,
I assume that you are using Portal 3.0.9 version.
Click on the folder in which you want to change the email properties. Click on "Edit Folder" link at the right hand top corner. Then click on "Folder Properties" link. Click on the "Optional" tab and change the email. Click on Apply and OK. The change should reflect when you View the folder.
Thanks,

E7 - Exchange contacts randomly disappearing

Hi, I've got an E7 phone which is synchronized to my Exchange 2003/Outlook 2010 email account. Since I got this phone, I've had problems on multiple occasions with contacts simply disappearing - they are suddenly gone from both my phone and my Outlook account. I have a lot of contacts in my address book that I don't use regularly, so it's hard to know just how widespread the problem is. But three or four times over the last few months, a very important contact has disappeared, along with all the notes and information that I'd added. Can anyone help me with this?

I too face the same situation of disappearing contacts - randomly, sometimes within days of entering the contact name, leading to embarassing situations. Since my configuration is also synced to Outlook, one possibility is the syncing occuring in the reverse direction (ie the entry being deleted by the blank one in the Outlook database).
Whatever be the case, this is simply inexcusable design. Appreciate any ideas on how to fix.

Contacts randomly disappearing

T-Mobile iPhone 6 Plus running iOS8.1.1.
Contacts are being erased from my phone randomly.
Received calls / iMessages will display phone number rather than contact name and the contacts have apparently vanished completely from list.
Random contacts, not the entire list. Contacts are synced with iCloud.
Any info regarding this issue?
Suggestions and solutions are greatly appreciated.

Contacts randomly changed to blocked caller

I have recently had two of my contacts randomly changed to blocked callers. I have not changed this in their contact settings. Any thoughts?

I would only enable your enterprise server on you Mac and other devices. I would turn off contacts in iCloud. Icloud will show duplicate contacts. The way I got rid of is only using enterprise.
This should work.

Contact Itunes Support link doesn't take you anywhere

Apple must have some server issues, since we can't get any real support for the inability to download TV episode in SD versions issue, thye must have shut off the link to take you to their "contact iTunes Support" link

I don't know what link you were attempting to use, but go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report your issue to the iTunes Store.

Contacts Randomly Disappeared

My contacts randomly disappeared in my iPhone 4s. It is brand new, and I just got it a few days ago. I had retrieved all my old contacts from iCloud but then they suddenly disappeared randomly. My contacts on iCloud.com are gone as well. I tried Importing from SIM as well but that did not work. Turned off mail back-up on iCloud, I was texting and randomly, the name of the text became just a bunch of phone numbers. Anyone else have a similar issue and have a solution?
By the way, I have no back-up restore point on my computer because it is brand new as well.
Thanks!

OK. i solved this by going to settings, icloud, and putting the "contacts" toggle back on..... how did it turn itself off??? anyway. fixed. contacts back to norm.
hope this helps? :S
this exact thing happened to me: from txsunrunner "My phone was functioning normally, I put it down for a while, I checked it later for messages and all my text message contacts were listed only as numbers. I tried restarting my phone, but it didn't solve the issue. "

Why do my iPhone 5s contacts randomly go missing?

I have an iPhone 5s. I originally had 119 contacts in my contacts list. Randomly, I noticed that my list of recent text messages had almost everyone listed by their phone number rather than by their name from my contact list so I checked my contact list and realized that there were only 41 contacts shown there. I had not recently done any updates or changed any settings before this happened.
What's weird is:
1) If I create a new text message and start typing the name of a "missing" contact, the contact comes up along with their phone number so that I can send them the text message.
2) If I create a new email message and start typing the name of a "missing" contact, the contact comes up along with their email address so that I can send them the email.
Since I couldn't find a solution to this issue online and I was freaking out about losing my contact information, I did a full restore from a recent backup and all 119 of my contacts were there after the restore. 2 days later, the same thing happened again, so I did another restore. After the 2nd restore, I turned off the automatic icloud backup just in case this was somehow the cause but it has now happened again so it can't be icloud synch related. I refuse to do another restore from backup - it takes too long and it's not the right answer to this issue. Someone out there has to know the cause and what I can do to prevent it from happening again. Better yet, since it seems that the contacts are "hiding" somehow on my phone (see points 1 and 2 above), perhaps there's a way for me to get them to show back up in my contacts list? I'm really frustrated that I've lost so many of my contacts.
Any help is greatly appreciated - thanks in advance.

I had been syncing with iCloud but, as mentioned, I turned off the automatic syncing to see if that was the issue. The last manual sync to iCloud I did was las night, after which all of my contacts were still there - they were also still there this morning. I randomly looked at my phone about an hour ago and realized the issue had happened again so no sync was done between last night's and the issue happening again today.

HT201394 Why are some of my contacts randomly showing as 'no caller id' in my recent calls list?

I updated to ios 8.0.2 yesterday and now when I go into my recent caller list lots of the numbers are showing up as 'No Caller ID' even thought they are in my contacts list, were showing up correctly before I updated, and when you go into the 'No Caller Id' number it shows the contact details. It isn't even uniform as to which contacts are affected with the same number sometimes showing correctly and other times showing no caller id. Is anyone else having this problem and can anyone tell me how I can fix this? So far I am not loving ios 8.0.2 one bit!!

I'm also having this problem on my iPhone 5 with iOS 8.1.2 installed.
In case it helps anyone to see the problem this is what my Recents list looks like in the Phone app (I have greyed out the two names it did randomly recognize). There does not appear to be any coherent pattern to this. All of the 'No Caller ID's listed are from people in my Contacts, as you can see it recognizes that they are from a mobile, work or other number and when you hit the i for more info the person's full contact details are displayed as per their entry in my Contacts app.
Restarting the phone has not solved it, neither has leaving the app open for a while. I know this is an old photo but it is still happening randomly with some new calls.

Random banner links: How to open in new tab/window

I've added a random banner to a site I'm experimenting with, and I've got it to randomly load the images. The links are all set and working, but they open in the same window or tab. Is there a way to tell it to open the linked site in a new window or tab?
Here's the script:
<script language="JavaScript">

</script>

I think part of your problem might lie in the way you are trying to use your quotation marks. It appears you are trying to have the single quotes do what double quotes should be doing.
document.write("<a href='"+imagelinks[ry]+"' target='_blank'><img src='"+myimages[ry]+"' border='none'></a>
If you want to have doublequotes appear in code as doublequote characters you can try slashing them to have them read literally... \"
document.write("<a href=\""+imagelinks[ry]+"\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\""+myimages[ry]+"\" border=\"none\"></a>

How to randomly select links in e-tester and how to get VU# in e-load

1. How to randomly select one from links in a webpage in e-tester?
For example: there is a root-page. On it, there are about 2000 links to its subpages. They all have the following pattern:
<pre>
multiline<TD width="50%"><NOBR>
<img src="/images/tfold.gif" border="0" alt="GXC_.+?" align="texttop">
{a href="(.+?)"}<font class="titleorimageid1siteid0">GXC_.+?</font>{a} </NOBR>
</TD>
</pre>
So how can randomly select one link and then navigate to it?
2.how to get VU# in e-load?
For example: we launch 4000 VU to load-stress our server. But we want to use different user names to login for different VU#. such as VU#1's username is ADF1, VU#2's username is ADF2, VU#100's username is ADF100 and so on. How can we implement the feature?
Thanks a lot.

Thanks a lot for VU#. Also i got an idea about how to randomly select a link:
Private Sub RSWVBAPage_afterPlay()
Dim objReg As New RegExp
Dim objMatchCol As MatchCollection
Dim objMatch As Match
Dim objSubMatch As SubMatches
Dim doc As String
Dim str As String
Dim rNumb As Integer
RSWApp.GetHtml doc
With objReg
.Global = True
.IgnoreCase = True
'the kind of urls have the following special pattern
.Pattern = "pageid=34,([\d]{5})"
End With
Set objMatchCol = objReg.execute(doc)
Randomize
rNumb = objMatchCol.Count * Rnd
If objMatchCol.Count >= 1 Then
If rNumb = objMatchCol.Count Then
rNumb = objMatchCol.Count - 1
End If
End If
Set objMatch = objMatchCol.Item(rNumb)
Set objSubMatch = objMatch.SubMatches
str = objSubMatch.Item(0)
Call RSWApp.setCustomVariable("var_url", str)
RSWApp.WriteToLog str
Set objMatchCol = Nothing
Set objMatch = Nothing
End Sub

Preventing contact update in linked email

I have one business email account linked to my Blackberry for live email updates at the request of my employer. I would like to keep the live email without it automatically adding contacts to the gmail address I use. I only use this address for work and do not want my personal contacts added. Is there a way to prevent updating my address book in the Blackberry while still receiving emails?
Blackberry 9670

I don't know what you mean. These are emails that I am originating, not that I am receiving. Those that I receive are okay...except insofar as they reply to an email I sent out in the first place, in which case, my fonts are 24 pt (or thereabout).
Thanks for persisting!
