E-mail addresses don't transfer from Windows Contacts to 3GS i phone

In preparation for my new i phone 3GS I completed all details in Windows Contacts. On syncing using Itunes, via cable connection, all names,addresses and phone numbers were transferred but none of the e-mail addresses. Yet I can now enter a new contact in Windows Contacts and all the info, including the e-mail address is transferred to the phone. Similarly I can add the e-mail addresses direct to the i phone for my existing contacts and they remain on both the phone and Windows Contacts after syncing without any problem. I don't however relish typing all my e-mail addresses into the i phone. Can anyone help please. (In case it's relevant I previously had an o2 xda Zest operating Windows Mobile 6.1 which I may have synchronised at some time using Windows Mobile Device Centre but latterly this hadn't worked so I merely connected using the xda as a storage device)

Can you clarify what your question was ? Its a bit hard to figure out.

  • Moving Mail, Address Book and Keychains from Old Computer to New Computer

    My issue: Moving mail, address book and keychains from Panther (old machine) to Leopard (new machine). Old machine (500mh G4 power pc) will not connect directly via firewire to new machine (iMac intel). So, I have to move the files manually via a firewire hard drive.
    I am looking for a document that will tell me exactly which files to move. Can someone please help me find this document? Thank you. Dale
    P.S. I have no issues with installing Leopard. I only need to move the mail, address book and keychains from old to new machine. No .mac account is available.

    for address book: go to your old mac, launch ab, and go to file>export and export your contacts as vcards, select all cards before that, then bring that export file to the new mac, and launch ab there, then go to file>import as vcards and you should be set as far as contacts are, but not as far as groups if you have extensive groups. that would be the safe option. the other option is to go to homefolder/library/application support/address book and move that folder to the new mac. the only question i have is... is the database structure and files the same between panther and leopard, which is why i suggest the first option of import/export of vcards.
    for mail, in your old panther go to homefolder/library/mail and move that mail folder to the new mac. make a copy of that folder, then move one copy to the same location in the new mac.
    for keychain, in your old panther go to homefolder/library/keychain, you want to bring the file that is in that folder to your new mac. make a copy of that folder, then move one copy to the same location in the new mac.
    once that is done, you may have to do some more steps with mail, once you launch mail, such as importing mailboxes. let me know if that is the case.
    hope this helps

    Has your carrier been having issues with Call Display? Do the telephone numbers come up when people call, or does it just show 'Unknown Number' or 'Blocked' ?

  • Some images don't transfer from RH8 to the Word output

    Why is it that some images don't transfer from the RH8 file to my Word output when I generate?
    They do transfer to the Flash Help, but not to Word.
    Some of them are small images - just shots of icons or tools - and others are quite a bit larger.
    It takes me at least another hour to format the Word document after the output.

    Hi Patti,
    I have had similar problems of images "softly and suddenly vanishing away" during export from RoboHelp to Word. I never really solved the problem, but I did find some useful tips.
    First you shouldn't embed your images; in the Printed Documentation Wizard you should select "Link to sub-directory"
    This has the advantage that lost images are now replaced by a small red cross -- easier to find when reviewing.
    Next, in Word, try Edit>Links. If you are lucky you will see something like this:
    Notice that some links have a Source File of ../Images; they are the ones I was missing. For some reason the path to the image file is moved up one level.
    I never found out why, but the workaround was simple: copy the entire Images directory and paste it one level higher in the directory hierarchy. A waste of disk space, to be sure, but it worked. The grabs above show Word2003 and RH8.
    Hope this helps,

  • How do I setup my default E~mail address, have tried tool/options window w/ no luck.

    I hate to reference microsoft IE8, but they have a default E~mail address that some web sites utilize. So far I have not been able to set-up one on Firefox, the Tool/option/send link does not work for me, nor does the applications window from the above options.

    Sorry, but this is getting above my level of experience with Firefox. I use Gmail which is supported, and I never had to dig into it this deep.
    Firefox would offer Outlook Express as the first "option", but since Win7 doesn't have Outlook Express as earlier versions of Windows did, that option shows up as Internet Shortcut Shell Extension DLL instead. ''(I get that too, with the "tiny" version of WinXP - ''sans OE'' - I currently use.)'' I have no idea how that Shell Extension DLL works.
    The support page that I hyperlinked has this at the bottom: <br />
    Firefox 3.5 and Firefox 3.6 include only Gmail and Yahoo! Mail support by default. You may add other services when they add support for this Firefox feature. <br /> ''I think Mozilla was counting on extension developers "picking up the slack" with an extension or extensions for each web mail service out there. But the way I see it, is that when Mozilla changed the way this works for Firefox 3.5 the few extensions that already did that were broken, and then there wasn't anything users had to use after the changes. IMHO, that was half-finished by Mozilla. They probably should have left that as it was in Firefox 3.0 or 2.0, instead of leaving the "completion" of this feature to 3rd party developers.''
    You need to an extension to be able to use MSN or Hotmail. Look for a suitable extension in this AMO search.<br />

    Is Apple compatible with Microsoft Office?
    Any computer is compatible as long as it can read and write Office files. But for perfect (or at least near perfect) compatibility, you would want to purchase Office 2011 for Mac.
    How can I transport from Windows to Mac?
    You can't directly transport any installation of Windows. All PC's come with a machine specific version of Windows intended for that PC. They don't have all of the hardware drivers the retail disks cover.
    If you want Windows on your Mac, you would first purchase a full version copy (NOT an upgrade disk) of Windows 7 or 8. Those are the only supported versions on newer Macs. You install it through the supplied Boot Camp utility that comes with the Mac to create a new partition for Windows, and then install the retail copy of Windows you purchased.
    The reason only these versions of Windows are supported is the same basic reason as a machine specific version of Windows for a PC. Apple only includes the necessary Mac hardware drivers for Win 7 or 8 on new Macs.
    Once Windows is installed, you could then install the version of Office for Windows you already own. The nuisance of a Boot Camp partition is that you have to physically boot to either Windows or OS X, so you can only use the apps of the OS you're in at the time. To use both at once, you'd have to use virtual machine software (Parallels, VMware, VirtualBox) and then install Windows within that. Then you'd be able to run Windows inside of OS X and have access to both at the same time.

  • How do I transfer from Windows Media Player to ipod?

    I have recently brought my first ipod and need help transfering my libary onto my ipod.

    Hello bountyboy,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    The first thing you will have to do is import the music that is currently in your Windows Media Player library over to your iTunes library because that is the only way you will be able to sync any music to it. Here is an article that provides instructions on how to do this: [Transfer Music from Windows Media Player to iTunes|http://www.jakeludington.com/askjake/20080329_transfer_music_from_windows_media_player_toitunes.html]
    From there, you will be able to set your iPod up to sync the music and such however you wish. If you need more help on how to sync the music to your iPod, I think this Apple support document should be able to assist you.

  • UPTIL NOW...While using Peachtree Accounting, I click Email and it takes me to windows live mail account. NOW it wants me to set up a new mail address through some WIZARD from Firefox. How do I get back to my previous setup? can I just delete Firefox?

    see above

    Were you previously loading Windows Live Mail in an earlier version of Firefox or in Internet Explorer?
    If it was Firefox 3.6, either your settings did not carry over or an add-on associated with this function was incompatible and therefore disabled.
    If it was IE, do you want to continue using IE as your default browser?

  • File transfer from windows

    I used the migration assistant to transfer fils from my Windows pc to my new MacBook Pro, but the transferred files only show up in a new user created by the assistant I supose and I cannot access them from my user account. Can anybody tell me how to transfer them to my user account or access them from my user account ?

    youreally, really need to back up and learn baics about computers.
    I'm not trying to be difficult, but to make your life easier. Tough love or whatever.
    Every computer on the planet has a file system that uses the analogy of folders inside folders.
    Start on your desktop, double click your hard drive.  Double click on users. Then on your user folder (generally yourname or whatever you log in with) then on documents.  You will see your document files (but not, for example, musci or videos - those are in music and videos, and not all the support files for mail, etc.
    But the bottom line is you really must know where your stuff is, or, if you prefer not to, call a service to come and help you (at $XXX per visit).
    My bigger concern is that you'll never find all those support files like mail settings, bookmarks, etc. that migration assistant should have brought over.  I would tend to delete the user that was created, and start over, carefulyl following the instructions to get them to YOUR user folder.
    All your stuff on a mac is in /users/you
    on a PC its in /users (or is it user files?)/you (fancy that)
    Explaining every step here is asking too much, really, for either of us.
