Dialing a number in the Phone Book from the phone

If I enter a phone number in the Phone Book in the MyVerizon webpage, how do I select that number to dial from my phone?

From your phone there is no way to make a call using the online contacts. You can use your computer to initiate the call. You can read more about. I have copied the instructions below that I have gotten from the user guide at http://www36.verizon.com/fiosvoice/userguide/User_Guide.pdf
To place a call using Calls and Messages Log:
1. Sign-in to your
Account Manager.
2. Click on the name or telephone number of the person you would like to
call from the “Calls and Messages” Log.
3. A pop-up window will appear. Select “Call Back” from the menu.
4. A second pop-up window will appear asking if you want to dial that
specific number or enter a new number. Click “Dial”.
5. Your phone line will ring once the call is placed. Pick up your phone and
wait for the person on the other end to pick up.
To place a call using your Phone Book:
1. Sign-in to your
Account Manager.
2. Select “Phone Book”.
3. Find the name of the person you would like to call.
4. Click on the name and select “Call” from the drop-down menu.
5. A second pop-up window will appear asking if you want to dial that
number or enter a new number. Click “Dial”.
6. Your phone will ring once the call is placed. Pick up your handset and
wait for the person on the other end to pick up.
To place a call from your Account Manager icon:
1. Sign-in to your
Account Manager.
2. Click the “Place a Call” icon.
3. You can
a. select a recently called number by using the dropdown menu (the
last five numbers recently dialed will be displayed) ,
b. manually enter a number, or
c. Click “Browse Phone Book” to select a number.
4. Once the number is entered, click “Dial”.
5. Your FiOS Digital Voice phone line will ring once the call is placed.
6. Pick up your handset and wait for the person on the other end to pick
up.

  • Unable to add contacts to address book from Mail

    When I mouse over a phone number (or address) in an email message in Mail, an arrow appears that lets me add a new contact with that phone number directly to address book from mail. Unfortunately, when I fill in the information and click "add to address book," the little window disappears but the contact does not appear in my address book.
    Any suggestions for fixing this? Thanks!

    Thank you so much V.K. Your solution worked for me too.
    BTW, I actually had two similar files in the app support:
    AddressBook-v22.abcddb AND AddressBook-v22~.abcddb
    I deleted both, but only the first one gave me the cannot empty trash message.

  • Lync client won't connect to a conference via dial-in number hosted on deterrent pool than conference.

    I have been
    troubleshooting a very strange issue with Lync clients being unable to connect
    to a conference via dial-in number when the conference is hosted on a different
    pool. This happens internally and there is no media gateway or SIP trunk
    involved.<o:p></o:p>
    Users are
    unable to join a conference from Polycom CX phones and Lync 2013/2010 software clients
    by dialling conference Dial-in number which is located on a different pool than
    actual conference. Users are prompted to input their conference ID, however,
    they are never connected to the conference (10 min silence followed by error
    announcement). <o:p></o:p>
    This only
    happens if the dial-in number is homed on a different pool than conference.
    Both pools are Lync 2013 Standard Edition running on Windows Server 2012.
    Servers and clients are patched with the latest CU.<o:p></o:p>
    I noticed that
    when you call dial-in number’s SIP address, user will get transferred to a
    conference (works ok). When you dial just a number users is never transferred
    and RT Audio traffic still goes directly to a server which is hosting dial-in
    number.<o:p></o:p>
    After
    checking Lync traces it looks like Lync client ignores the REFER message from
    the FE server hosting Dial-in number and it never send an INVITE to the server
    whit active conference.<o:p></o:p>
    The only difference
    between INVITES for working calls and calls that failed to connect to the
    conference is the presence of the user=phone in TO header:<o:p></o:p>
    Working
    invite:<o:p></o:p>
    TO:
    <sip:[email protected]><o:p></o:p>
    Failed invite:

    Please try to disable refer support for all pools.
    The problem seems occur when Attendant transfer the call to another pool.
    Please provide more trace file information.

  • I have a brand new IPhone 4G.  For the life of me, I can't get the phone to ring. I have been in and out of my settings, have disengaged both silent and vibrate.  But when dialing my number from another phone, the call goes direclty into my voice mail

    I have a brand new IPhone 4G.  I can't get it to ring.  I have gone into settings and disengaged vibrate, and have engaged the ring button on side of phone.  But everytime I dial my number from a different phone, it doesn't ring. Rather the call goes directly into my voice mailbox (ogm heard immediately); not even one ring! Please advise

    Well, if it goes to VM immediately the call isn't reaching your phone, so no wonder it isn't ringing. Do you see a network displayed in the upper left of the screen? Have you activated the phone by connecting to a computer with the latest version of iTunes? Have you called your carrier to make sure they have provisioned it correctly?

  • Editing of phone number in the dial screen

    Hi,
    I would like to find out if Black Berry intends to update this feature into upcoming OS10.2 xxx. I used to have various blackberry phones, but have since sold them off / swapped phones. Although the feature seems rather innocuous and mundane, based on what i have read, there are many users who would like to see this important feature in. Please let me knkow, as i would like to swap back to use the blackberry paltform.
    HW

    Welcome to the forums.
    What exactly do you mean by the editing of the number?
    The ability to edit the number has always been in the dial screen, just use a two finger swipe from the bottom to bring up the keyboard and use the number or delete keys as appropriate.
    If I've missed what you are trying to say let me know exactly what it is you would want to do.
    If you've been helped click on , if you've been saved buy the app.

  • Any suggestions on how to keep a call going successfully?  During the course of my conversations, my phone calls end..My cheek touches the screen or my chin dials another number.  I am very frustrated.  I hold the phone in all directions, but still?

    Any suggesstions on ow to successfully complete a call.  During the course of a conversation, my face hits the screen and either disconnects the call, switches to Face Time, or dials another number from my Contacts.  I hold the phone in all sorts of directions, but still this problem.  It is so annoying to the caller and to me!  Any suggestion?

    The iphone is designed to lock the screen when it is next to your face.
    If it is not locking when it is against your ear, then try basic troubleshooting: Restart,reset, restore
    Unless you have a case on it. If you have a case, then remove the case and see if that solves it.  Otherwise, try basic troubleshooting.
    If all fails then make an appointment at the local genius bar or call Apple support to arrange from a replacement.

  • Can this be done somehow? I would like to see an App or Apple guidance were I can identify my name or number to certain phone contacts that I can choose from within my address book?

    Not sure what they offer in Canada, but I use Google Voice. It provides a phone number that will ring through to your phone (or multiple phones if you want). There is a free app you can use to place calls so they appear from your Google Voice # instead of your 'real' number.
    I use the Google # for business calls/texts and only use "my" number for personal stuff.  Google gives you control over things like call screening and allows you te set timers for when it is permitted to ring through to your normal number, which is great for business calls. If I'm not on call, I keep the timer set to shut it down except during business hours.
    Might be worth looking into.

    I am trying to burn DVDs from iPhoto slideshows.  My pictures number in the hundreds and we know that iPhoto captures 99 and then "starts over".  This plays fine from the Mac Book but glitches arise on the DVD when playing it on a DVD player.  Any suggestions on how to overcome the 99 "Chapter limitation" that IPhoto has?  Has anyone heard or tried an app called Vilisoft?  I read good things but I am not sure if it will do what I want.
    Jim

    Then use multipel 99 picture slideshows. 
    You can have up to 8 or 9 slideshows per menu.  If you add a sub menu reduce that by 1 and add 8 more to the sub menu.  The top menu can have links to up to 8 or so submenus (depends on the theme) and each submenu can have up to 8 or so slideshows. 
    However, converting a very large slideshow to a QT movie as Terence suggested does not envoke the 99 slide limit in iDVD.  It just becomes a single video/movie file.  So you should not have a problem with exporting at the large size, 720 x 540,
    and dragging the resulting file into the iDVD menu being sure to avoid any drop zones.

  • When i send a text in iMessage the person receiving it gets it from my email address... how do i change that. and in message settings the receiving thing has my email and phone number but my phone number is gray and i can't click on it

    Hello Todd:
    I had this very same problem when trying to activate iMessage and Facetime on my iPad. When I signed into my account, I actually wasn't even presented with the option of a phone number - notwithstanding the fact that I was contacting others (and being reached by others) by my phone number on my iPhone. Having both the iPad and the iPhone on, I kept trying to turn off and on both iMessage and Facebook in Settings on both my iPad and iPhone, hoping that that they would eventually sync. But this proposed solution by others was unsuccessful for me.
    Then, I found out what the problem was: When my iPhone was activated, it automatically registered my phone number for contact purposes. I was using iMessage on my iPhone for quite some time without actually being signed into my Apple ID account. When another device - such as an iPad or iPod - is being used for iMessage or Facebook, you are prompted to sign into your Apple account, using your username and password. These two devices will not register your phone number as an option for contact unless your iPhone is signed into your Apple account as well. In other words: your phone number will not be synced.
    Go into your "Settings" on your iPhone and click on "Messages". Scroll down and click on "Send & Receive" (which should be followed by your phone number). On the next page, you will be able to determine whether or not your iPhone is using the Apple ID for messaging purposes. (Note: This information applies for Facetime as well.) If it is using your Apple ID for messaging, than at the top, you will see "Apple ID: <your particular e-mail account>" in Blue text. However, if you are not using your Apple ID for messaging, than you will see the words: "Use your Apple ID for message". Even though below this you will see your phone number checked as the contact source, you will want to click the tab that says, "Use your Apple ID for message". Sign into your account (just as you must sign in for iMessage on your other devices), and just choose your phone number as the "Send & Receive" contact. (The option of the e-mail will be there too, but you don't have to check it. And later on, you can delete it as an option.)
    Now that all of your devices are signed in using your Apple ID, the other devices should register your phone number as a choice. It may take a little while, however. What I did was sign out of iMessage on my iPad, and then sign in again. If the option didn't appear, I just went back and signed in again, and kept doing this until the option for the phone number appeared.
    Again, this will work for Facetime as well. The solution is to sync your iPhone account with the other devices by using your Apple ID for messaging (and Facetime) purposes.
    I hope that this works for you, Todd!   ~ Brian

  • How do I reduce the number of pages in an iPhoto book from 100 to 50

    How do I reduce the number of pages in an iPhoto book from 100 to 50.  I have selected 153 photos to be put in the book and iPhoto automatically designated the book to be 100 pages in length.

    If the auto place put photos on all 100 pages you'll need to reset the layout on the first 50 pages so all photos will fit in just those 50 pages.  Then add the photos to the first 50 pages and delete the last 50 according to the link Larry provided.

    Hi! I'm from Russia and i want to buy the new unlocked iPhone 4S in the U.S. in November, but i need to know, am i need this doc's?
    What to Bring with You
    Your old mobile phone, if you’re replacing it.
    Social Security number of the account holder.
    Valid government-issued photo ID.
    Carrier account password, if you have one.
    Your Apple ID and password.

    According to Apple's list (link above) you will probably want to pick up a Sprint or US Cellular model. HOWEVER, as I mentioned above I know that the Verizon iPhones come unlocked from the factory (assuming it will be the same for iPhone 6 and 6+). I DO NOT KNOW if the Sprint and US Cellular models come unlocked. But I am sure some quick internet research will lead you to the answer.
    I think your goal would be to get a Sprint or US Cellular version. Also I believe a law was just recently passed that allows someone to have a phone unlocked by the carrier no questions asked. So even if the Sprint and US Cellular iPhones are locked you can have them unlocked.

  • Can I dial a number on my E71 from the PC via PC S...

    Hello!
    The small buttons on the E71 make it dificult to dial a number. Is it possible to dial the number directly from the computer via PC Suite? Since PC Suite is opening a window on an incoming call, it should be possible to make an outgoing call.
    I did not find anything
    - online
    - in PC Suite menue
    - in PC Suite help
    Is there a seperate software nessecary?
    Thank you!
    Best regards from Germany

    Thank you for your replies.
    I am really wondering that I seem to be the only one who has the wish to call numbers directly from Outlook/any other application via his mobile. Since not everybody has a TAPI connection to the telephone system and a headset for the telephone system it would make life so much easier....
    Anyway in between I got the hint to try out a software called gnokii (http://www.gnokii.org/). Just from reading this seems to work. I will try it out but appreciate any further hints.
    The software "Bluetooth PC Dialer v2.0" from www.bluetoothshareware.com at least does enable the copy paste and dialing via bluetooth (as the name indicates). Not a perfect solution but at least a solution.
    Regards
