E71 Cannot dial from Contacts List

With my E71 phone I cannot dial numbers directly from my Contacts List. I have to write number down then manually dial. What have I set wrongly? How can I correct this?

I found the answer myself. Just switch the phone off and on again to make it re-boot. Frustrating but just like a computer! or maybe it was taking it 30,000 feet into the air that cured it!!

  • Cannot dial from contact list

    Received new  4S Iphone to replace recently stolen phone.  I did sync with my lap top and when contacts loaded to phone the format is different than it was on other phone.  No dashes no area code just all straight numbers.  When I try to call from my contacts I am unable to call anyone; however, I can manually dial the number and it works.  what do I need to do?

    Try dialing *228 and then option 1.  Be sure to wait until you a get a message saying that it was successful.

  • Nokia C7 Dialing from contact list

    I'm having problem dialing from contact list and recent calls.  I can only makes calls when dialing  the numbers.  I can receive calls.  Texting works fine from contact list and recent calls, but voice call can only be done by dialing the number .Phone has to reboot everytime it happens.

    Hi Remembranze,
    First of all, check via Nokia Suite and on the phone itself for any firmware updates that may be available. IF there is an update, please update to the latest version offered. If there is no update, then try re-installing your current firmware via Nokia Suite. Failing this, try Restoring your phone to factory settings, and if this doesn't work, then you try performing a three finger hard reset. Failing this, you will need to take your phone to your local Nokia Care point for them to inspect.

  • I try to dial from contact list, but phone wants to email.

    This appears to have happened by itself, but it's my wife's iPhone.
    She trys to dial from her contact list, but iphone wants to email even when a phone number is touched.

    Try resetting the iPhone. Hold down the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone restarts, try and see if it works. Also, can you dial a phone number and the call go through?

  • Pause or Confirm when dialing from contacts or recents?

    Does anyone know of a way to "pause" dialing from Contacts or Recents? Touch a Recent or a phone number in a Contact and iPhone immediately initiates a call... I'm looking for an app or setting that would ask "are you sure you want to make this call" first. Thank you!

    Kind of funny, as it's certainly happened to me that I started a call without wanting to. But I've gotten used to 2 things to stop this:
    1. don't tap and release, just tap and hold, then scroll. If you tap and hold, the call won't start, and you can choose not to call by simply scrolling up or down and then releasing.
    2. keeping my thumb to the right side of the screen when looking at the recent phone call list. That way, if I happen to tap, it just opens up the contact info.

  • How to send a number by SMS from contact list on 2...

    Guys, I cracked my brains to solve how to send a number from contact list by SMS in 2630.
    Maybe there's no such option at all?
    Please help!!!

    I don't think there is such an option on a limited phone like the 2630.
    On phones running S60 such as the Nseries and Eseries devices (and a few others) there is an option to copy a number from the contacts into the clipboard and you can subsequently paste it into a new message. Older S40 phones like the 2630 don't have a clipboard facility to do copy/paste actions.

  • E75 can't dial from contacts

    Love my new E75.  Last week I could dial from contacts no worries - this week - nada, no go, no dial.  As the phone is likely smarter than me - what am I doing wrong?? 
    Solved!

    Try this. Turn off the phone. Remove the battery. Count to 10. Put the battery back in, turn it on and see if that fixes it.

  • I cannot view my contact list via Backup Assistant Plus

    I go to My Verizon, More Actions, Manage My Contacts.  After doing so, up comes a dialogue box which welcomes me to Backup Assistant Plus.  It has an option to add one or more email accts.  I choose Windows Live Hotmail and enter my email address and password.  After doing so, I receive an error message which reads, "Failed to add endpoint due to the following reason:  Missing Device Name.  Please try again."  I am entering the correct email address and password but to no avail.  As a result, it is impossible for me to see the contact list within Backup Assistant Plus.  Has anyone else noted this behavior?  Thanks in advance.

    Thanks but I cannot seem to follow the instructions.  I cannot see the Content Management selection you mention.  It seems that I already have BAckup Assistant Plus on my acct. as I can go to that option on my phone and it tells me that the most recent backup was successful.  I can't see these contacts online however.  To review, I choose More Actions - Manage My Contacts - Welcome to Backup Assistant Plus - At that point, a box comes up asking me to add one or more email accts.  I choose Windows Live Hotmail and enter the correct email address and password.  That is when I get the aforementioed message, "Failed to add endpoint due to the following reason:  Missing Device Name. Please try again."
    This has become very frustrating as my calls to Verizon have not helped.  However, it is reassuring to know that my contacts are indeed being backed up through my Microsoft Outlook acct. and can be retrieved from there should need be.
    Nevertheless, I would sure like to be able to see and manage these contacts on Backup Assistant Plus online.  Thanks for your help.

  • My iPhone 4S not compatible with 2008 Q7 Audi MMI.  Now only phone numbers come up on screen, no name.  Names appeared on the phone screen but not MMI screen. Cannot dial by contact info while driving anymore.  Never had this problem with previous iPhones

    My iPhone 4S not compatible with 2008 Q7 Audi MMI.  Now only phone numbers come up on screen, no name.  When someone calls, only the number appears on the MMI screen, not their name or whether they called from their office/home etc..   Same with missed calls, dialed numbers etc.. Names appeared on the screen of the phone,  but not on MMI screen. Cannot dial by searching  contact and name info while driving anymore.  Never had this problem with previous iPhones.  Is this an Apple issue or Audi issue?  Anyone with this problem? Help!

    NIGHTMARE Finally Ends, after nearly two weeks.
    After trying for over a week trying to get my replacement iPhone 4S to activate, I ended up driving 110+ miles to an Apple Store to get a second replacement, which had been specially shipped there for me.  Popped in the SIM card, went through the setup and I finally have an iPhone 4S that works, at least for the time being.
    Advice to others who find themselves in this situation:
         1)     If you get these messages (see original post), the phone is bad.  Demand a replacement.
         2)     If the AppleCare tech advises that the Apple Agreement Administration team is investigating, you'll be waiting for a week or more for them to complete it.  Demand a replacement immediately, don't let them put you off indefinitely.
    After the initial phone call documented in my original post, I was in daily contact, phone & e-mail, with the AppleCare tech trying to figure out the problem, and we tried everything, from forced restore's to switching SIM cards, conferencing w/ AT&T, etc.  It seems that this was a case of first impression to Apple, but if it wasn't, then the problem is not well documented or known by those who should know, and for that, the blame should be on Apple, not the AppleCare tech who worked tirelessly trying to figure out a solution--I'd send him a case of beer if I knew where to send it.

  • How do you remove facebook contacts from contact list in IOS 8?

    Got a new 6+ today and it loaded all my facebook contacts in my contact list. How do you remove them. In IOS7 you used to go to settings/facebook/groups in upper left corner and uncheck face book, but its not there in IOS 8

    Hey mmoore216,
    Great question! You can disable your Facebook contacts from syncing with your Contacts application in the following location:
    iOS: Using Facebook, Twitter, and other social network accounts
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5500
    Sync contacts and calendars
    iOS can sync your Facebook contacts and calendars with your device. This feature is off by default, but you can enable it in Settings > Facebook after adding your account.
    Thanks,
