Droid 3, contact issues...help!

Recently, I had to do a master reset on my Droid 3, due to a number of issues. (Let's just hope this solves them!) Anyway, while trying to restore my contacts (ran Backup Assistant and everything else), I have run into two small yet very annoying problems:
1) When I try to send a text a particular person in my contact list (if it's relevant I have him, my pastor, listed as Pastor in the first name field and Joe in the last name field), the texting app won't pull up his number unless I type Joe first. Is there a way around this? It's worth noting that I had this issue before doing the reset. I can easily go back and use his regular first/last name, but I'd prefer to keep it this way if I can. This issue applies only to this one contact; every other one works, even for entries that aren't people (i.e. my work number)!
2) I am going through my contacts and linked their phone numbers with their Facebook accounts, so that I can have their FB profile pics displayed in the contact list. I have been successful with all but two of them. Here is the process I have followed: Tap contact's name in list --> tap menu button and choose "edit contact" --> tap menu button again and choose "join" --> choose FB contact from list of suggested contacts. The problem is at this last point no contacts are being suggested, and choosing "all contacts" doesn't help because all it does is show those I have already saved. Again, this has worked for all of my contacts with the exception of these two, and I didn't have this problem before doing the reset. Both of these people have active FB accounts, and are on my friends list. I have my Facebook account set up properly in the Accounts section of my settings, have the FB for Android app downloaded/logged in, and just about every other possible step I can think of completed. Any advice? This is more frustrating than issue #1 above.
I would greatly appreciate any help that anyone can offer. I realize these are fairly minor issues that I could probably overlook, but I would prefer not to. Thanks in advance!

1) Very odd, don't know about that one.
2) Try setting your facebook sync settings to sync all contacts (within the facebook app), give it some time to sync, then do the join process again. Those particular contacts may not have any similar info (email address, phone number, etc.) so it may not recognize they are the same person (especially if you have a slightly different name for them, like I have my mom listed as "mom", and her facebook profile has her full name). This should allow you to at least search for them. After they are joined, you should be able to put it back to sync only existing contacts so that your phonebook isn't full of facebook friends that you are never planning on calling.

I cannot find my photos or contacts. Help how do I get them back after a iclound backup was done due to needed to get a new iphone. HELP

I believe I had leopard and I was having issues getting errors of system not being supported. I contacted Apple and was advised I needed to upgrade to snow leopard. My laptop is from 2009 and I haven't done anything to it till now. The apple rep also stated I should do a fresh install when putting snow leopard on so my laptop would run faster. Apple rep told me to get a external hard drive to put my info on it so the fresh install would reset everything to like it was brand new. I had someone help me with getting everything on the EHD.. doing the right format and such and then once that was done I put in the CD for snow leopard and hit install. Which brings me to now, with everything but my pictures. I have the EHD plugged in... now what? What do I do? I have looked in the EHD in iphoto and it was all standard images *not my pictures but images of a check mark or an arrow again not actual pictures. I don't see a folder pictures and i looked for images and found nothing. I have Applications, Included Free Designs, Library, System, User Guides and Information and Users, those are my options and non of those have a "pictures"
I have iPhoto '09 version 8.1.2 & Mac OS X version 10.6.3

Email and Contact Issues

My emails are not coming through to my phone unless I manually refresh. I have three accounts setup (Yahoo! and 2 school email accounts). Both school accounts, when I sign on from a computer says something about Outlook: one says Mircosoft outlook and the other says Outlook live.
I contacted my school and got the correct settings for each account. They work because I get the emails as long as I manually refresh. I initially had my phone set to check for mail every hour but after realizing it was not automatically doing this, I set it for every five minutes. That still didn't help.
Out of frustration, I called Verizon who told me they knew nothing about such an issue. They connected me to Samsung who said the same thing. Apparently they were both lying as I have Googled this issue and see that it has been posted since Sept 2010. I just have not noticed a solution (possibly overlooking it).
The solution that they gave me was so a hard reset (didn't work), delete then re-add the accounts (didn't work) or use a workaround. My response to their last suggestion was that I did not feel it was necessary for me to do that when the phone I purchased was supposed to handle email. This has been an issue since I got the phone in Nov 2010 when I switched to VZ. I didn't really notice it until this month because I was having text messaging issues which they didn't fix until this month.
Samsung ended up telling me to send them my phone and they would troubleshoot it but I had to contact VZ about getting a loaner phone as they were going to have it for a week. When I called VZ back, they told me they would just send me a replacement phone and to not send the phone to Samsung because they could have given me a defective phone. The order wasn't placed because their system was down that Friday and the guy was supposed to call me back. He never did so I called VZ a third time.
The tech support rep told me that she was positive that if I got a brand new phone I would still have the same problem because its a known issue that Samsung has yet to fix. Also she had the same phone and also some other people she worked with. She told me to make sure I deleted junk mail, sent stuff, kept the inbox down, and empty the trash and that should help. She was supposed to call me back and see if it helped (which it didn't). She never called back....that was Monday and today is Friday.
Now I'm feeling like they are lying to me because they don't want to replace my device. Then on top of that they told me it would more than likely be a refurbished device instead of a brand new device even though I still have a warranty. Should I push for a new phone or is this really a known issue with Samsung that they have yet to fix? If it is a Samsung issue, what's the workaround until they actually fix it?
By the way, Gmail works almost instantaneously. They told me to forward all of my mail there but that didn't work for my two school accounts. I don't like that anyway.
As for the contact issues, I just noticed two weeks ago that my Facebook and Twitter contacts are unsyncing themselves. I don't have all of my Facebook friends or Twitter followers in my phonebook but those whose phone numbers I have, are linked to their Facebook and or Twitter accounts but I notice that both of these accounts unlink themselves. I have no idea why this happens. I keep having to go back into my phonebook and relink about 30 people to their Facebook and or Twitter profiles. Any idea why?

In your email app, have you tried going into each account, pressing the menu button, account settings, and setting email check frequency to the desired time?
If that's not the issue, then perhaps pressing the menu button at the home screen, going into settings, accounts and sync, and clicking the background data option is the issue.
The reason why Gmail works well is that instead of polling (which is what the email app uses, where it queries the account to see if there's anything new), it pushes your email through meaning that it's virtually instantaneous.
With regards to the Twitter and Facebook issue, try going into the accounts and sync area that I mentioned before. There, you will be able to set the SNS sync interval and sync the contacts, birthdays, and whatever else it allows. You'll probably have to click on each of those accounts to check various options before it will autosync.
My frequency is set to every 5 mins. That hasn't worked.
The background data sync option is clicked already.
The Twitter and Facebook SNS syncing is set. I have noticed though that sometimes when I go in there, the sync arrow is red by Twitter and Facebook. I uncheck the box and recheck it and then it turns green again. What I don't know is why it randomly turns red in the first place. I'm assuming this is the reason the Facebook and Twitter stuff unsyncs itself.

Contact your help desk with this information: cannot create connection file "CitrixID"

Has anyone overcome an issue with logging in to a Citrix server and getting the following message: Contact your help desk with this information: cannot create connection file “CitrixID”? I can log on, but once logged in, the apps available to me will not launch. All worked fine before I upgraded to OS X Mavericks. I do a lot of foreign travel and Citrix kept me connected to the office. Unfortunately, our IT team aren't really "Mac Guys" so they are just as perplexed as I am. I have deleted and deleted Citrix Receiver several times as posts on other sites recommended, but to no avail.

There are some discussions on the citrix forum that may help if you haven't already seen them. Here are two and there are likely more:

Transfer Facebook contact photos to Droid Maxx contact list

My phone and Facebook are in Sync as far as sharing pictures, etc. However, I can't figure out how to get my facebook friend pictures to post to my Droid Maxx contact list. Anyone know how to do this?

I know its important to have your pictures display on your social media sites and your contact list drdobbs83. You can try the steps below to help with this option.
• From a home screen, select People (located at the bottom).
If unavailable, navigate: Apps > People .
• From the Groups tab, select the group to display.
Below is another set of steps using the contacts application.
The Contacts application uses an intelligent merge feature to combine contact information from various sources (Gmail, Microsoft® Exchange, Facebook, new entries, etc.). If contact information was joined in error, the information can be separated back into individual contacts.
• From a home screen, select People (located at the bottom).
If unavailable, navigate: Apps > People
• From the All contacts tab (located at the top), select a contact.
• Select Menu (located in the upper right).
• Select Edit.
• Select Menu .
• Select Join or separate
Please keep us posted.

Droid 2 signal issues

I would really like to switch from T-Mobile back to Big Red for the coverage and the network. I have to have a physical keyboard, so the Droid 2 seems like the best option so far but the problem is that the reviews I've read about it say it has signal issues, and that's totally unacceptable.
http://mobile.engadget.com/2010/08/23/verizon-pushes-out-first-droid-2-update-doesnt-cure-signal-woe/
I'm not about to pay a termination fee and sign a contract with Big Red (again, I might add) if I'm going to have the same signal issues as I do with T-Mobile...
Can I get a Verizon rep to answer if motorola is working on a software fix to the signal issue? Is it even fixable with software?

I bought a Droid 2 yesterday and taking it to work today, I've had signal issues already. I have 1 and sometime no bars and other Verizon users have pretty good signal here. I'm really disappointed because the Droid 2 seemed like such a good phone from my research. I called customer service and they had me do a Factory Data Reset but that didn't help.
The kicker is I just exchanged my Samsung Fascinate for this Droid 2 phone and the Fascinate had great signal strength everywhere.
Is there any proven resolution out there for the Droid 2 signal issue / reception issue?

I understand where you coming from but I would use System Panel instead of a task killer, a number of users helped me see the light of not using a task killer.

From what I see online, same response from other video chat tools. This was one of the biggest selling points for me!!! Am more than mildly annoyed at this one.
That strange because the Droid 3 is supported on Skype's site.
Previous phone was a Droid 2 - with none of these problems.... appears that the Droid3 was released before testing and fixing issues.
PLEASE ADDRESS THIS!!!

You're probably running into the servers simply being swamped. Thousands of people are all going for the software update at the same time. Give it a try again and if that doesn't work, then try plugging it into your computer and trying it that way.
I didn't get a notion of the size, it doesn't seem to be as big as the 700 meg 5.0 update, but it did take me 20+ minutes to download via cable internet so it's a large file. That in and of itself takes a while.
If you're trying to download it directly to your iPhone, you'll need to be on wifi since I'm sure it's well over the 20 meg file size limit for 3G.
