E71 - SUDDENLY: No Caller Name Displays!

Sometime, within a day or so following my first first sync (using Nokia PC Sync) between my E71and Lotus Organizer, I noticed that NAMES for incoming and missed calls from callers already in my contacts no longer display. Only the numbers. Names (per my contacts list) did display before I did the sync to Organizer. Calls dialed from the contact list still show up as names in the log -- however, the same number dialed from the missed calls list or directly from the screen does not resolve to a name. Only a number shows.
I'm really perplexed about this, and highly annoyed.
1) The numbers are NOT/NOT duplicated anywhere in my contacts, and I have NO contacts saved to my SIM card. NONE.
2) Deleting an entry and then creating a new one from the missed call list (using the same number and name for the new entry) doesn't help. Still no name displayed.
3) I've noticed VOICE TAGS which I don't ever recall seeing before I synced - maybe they were there, but I don't recall them. And those little pacman icons do rather catch one's eye.
4) Numbers are not oddly formatted, and in any event, they've not been changed. But something has certainly changed.
I've read the postings on this problem, and the only hope seems to be a complete deletion of my phone-based contacts, with a restore via PC--> Phone from my Organizer contacts list. I'm reluctant to try this, as the problem began with the sync between the two.
This is really pretty absurd.
Any help here, please?

I agree - it certainly looks like some sort of refresh bug or perhaps some sort of bug linking names for contacts from a particular account.
I was having problems resetting my password for my Exchange account so I finally just deleted the whole account and re-added it. When I re-added it, I left my Exchange contacts disabled. A few hours later, I was switching back & forth between my Recent Calls and Favorites (accidentally) and suddenly the names for my Favs were replaced by #'s only. Ditto with my Recents.
After reading your post, I re-enabled the Contacts for my Exchange account and let them sync. Switching back & forth from my Favs & Recents over the next few minutes I began to see my names come back.
I suppose y'all who are having problems could try to delete your account that many of your contacts are linked to and then re-add and allow sync to happen. No guarantees, but it seemed to work for me.

  • Nokia x6 no caller name displayed

    Hi ,ive just got a nokia x6. I have all my contacts on the sim card. when i get a call the number is displayed but not the name.
     does anyone know how i get the name displayed?
    thanks

    Found this little gem online when I had the same problem quote:
    If multiple contacts have the same number in your contacts list and one of them calls you, your phone has no way of knowing which one is actually on the other end of the line and, quite sensibly, just shows the number instead of trying to "guess" who it really is. Now, most phones can store contacts both in their own memory and on the SIM card. If you have the same contact in both locations then that counts as duplicates and you'll never see that contact's name displayed. The cure for this is to use the phone's built-in search facility and to search for the number in question. If you find it more than once then you'll have to delete all but one occurrance.
    unquote:
    It worked for me, my problem was I had numbers I called from abroad with the +44 prefix with the persons name and int (for international dialling)  i.e.  Bill 07.......   then Bill Int +447.....   this meant that as the phone saw 07 and +447 as the same number it did not know if it was Bill or Bill int calling so just displayed the number.
    I just put both the international number and the uk dial number in the same contact under phone and mobile and bingo works a treat.
    Hope this helps

  • Issue with recieving long SMS and Caller Name display

    Hi,
    Im new to the blackberry and  have looked around other forums & technical centre and havn't found any way to solve my issues although  i did find something about caller id problems.
    1) When people send me long SMS i.e over 160 characters long i keep recieving them in separate SMS and it becomes very confusing... i have owned over 7 different phones in the past and this has never been a problem. Is there any way to solve this?
    2) Quite often when someone calls me, i only seem to be able to see the callers number and not the Name, this is frustating as i have no idea who is ringing.
    Hope you can assist me.
    Thanks.

    It helps to give ALL the details of yoru device, such as your OS release on the device and your carrier as well.
    1.  Verizon blocks combined SMS over 160 characters on their BlackBerrys. You should fuss at them. Other carriers don't do this. An alternative for you is the application called "Beyond160", find it in AppWorld.
    2. There could be any one of three solutions... Try these:
    a. Make sure you set your own country code at Phone Dialer Screen > Options > Smart dialing.
    Set your country code in this format: "+xx" where xx = your country code. Some countries have two or three digit Country Codes. Do not place the '+' in your contact's entry.
    * In the US, set this Country Code as "+1", and place your loca area code in the proper box (this normally the default setting in a new BB).
    b. At the same location, change the National Number Length to the number of digits for your country (since some countries will have less than 10 as set as the default in the BB). Find out the total digits, minus the country code. Do not place the '+' in your contact's entry.
    * For example, some countries have a total number to 8 (plus 3 for country code). You would enter "8".
    c. You may have "Content Protection" set on your Address Book.
    Look at Options > Security > General Settings. Scroll down to Content Protection > Include Address Book = NO.

  • Calling name in UCCX

    Is it possible to set the calling name (display name) when a call is transferred by UCCX script ?

    Hi Paolo
    No, it's not - CLI/N is a bit of a sticking point with UCCX. IN 10.0 you can set the call so it shows the outside caller's actual number, prior to that it shows the CTI port number. You can never 'set' the name.
    Some suggestions:
    1) If you are doing a 'transfer' e.g. call redirect step, rather than routing to an agent, and if you have a small number of 'names' (for example, you take calls for 5 menu options, and want to set that on the call e.g. 'sales', 'cs' or whatever)... you can transfer the call to a CTI RP, name the CTI RP 'Sales' (alerting/display name) and then forward that to the intended extension. The receiving extension would then see 'Forwarded for Sales'. Similar for sending to a hunt group..
    2) If you are routing to an agent with a select step, you can set a CAD workflow to pop up an alert with the name. Or you could just set Enterprise data and add show it in CAD. It doesn't appear on the handset, but is there on the PC screen, and you have the advantage of being able to set it to whatever you want per call.

  • Calling name presentation cucm

    Hi
    I have a problem with calling name presentation when a call is transfered from one of my secretaries to another internal user, the original Called Party details are shown on the recieving phone.
    This is the secretaries query :- "If I picked up an external call that has bounced from my Manager cathy's phone and the caller requests to speak to someone else (i.e. Jim) as Cathy is unavailable, when I call Jim's extension (without ending my external call) it tells Jim that it is Cathy calling him and not me calling".
    So the wrong calling party name is shown (the original called party, rather than the transferor) ?
    Thanks
    Paul

    Hi Paul,
    Can you give a try for below settings:
    When a call routes through a translation or route pattern, routes to a Call Forward All or Call Forward Busy destination, or gets redirected through a call transfer or CTI application, the connected number display updates to show the modified number or redirected number.
    To turn off phone display updates so that the phone displays only the dialed digits, set the Cisco CallManager service parameter "Always Display Original Dialed Number" to true. When this service parameter specifies true, the originating phone displays only the dialed digits for the duration of the call.
    You can choose if the name for the original dialed number or the number after translation is displayed using the Cisco CallManager service parameter called "Name Display for Original Dialed Number When Translated". The default setting displays the name for the original dialed number before translation. This parameter is not applicable if the "Always Display Original Dialed Number" service parameter is set to false.

    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' ?

  • Can a 7965 display a URI address as the Calling name?

    I have a customer that is utilizing URI dialing as much as possible. The TPX endpoints, DX650, and 99XX phones display the URI address of the calling number. But when calling a 7965 from a URI speed dial I do not see the URI address...just to Calling Name and number. Can this be done?
    Thank yoU!

    I havent done this in the past but I am going to assume that the 7965 is a SCCP phone and you might have to migrate it to SIP to get that info. 

  • Calling name don't displays on agent's phone

    Hello, i've an issue,
    we have 5 agents with Cisco UCCX 7 (Premium).
    when these is an incomming call, first of all they see CTI route point and when the call handled, agent see just calling phone number, but not name.
    Is it possible to make that an agent could see calling name and not cti route points
    thank you

    The phone will always display the CTI port information until they answer the call on their phone. This is not configurable. They can view the ANI on CAD however.
    For caller ID name, CCX does not retain this information so this will not be seen when the call is transferred to the agent's ICD line from the CTI port.
    Changing either of these behaviors would require a product enhancement request with your local Cisco AM.

  • Sony mw600 dont display music id and caller name

    I am usinh sony mw600 with my phone (huawei mate android 4.2.1) and the headphone dony show the track id ornthe caller name, please help

    Some Android phones does unfortunately not support sending this information to a bluetooth headset and in this case you can usually only see the number when someone calls you.
    I recommend that you contact Huawei to see if they are aware of this.

  • E52 BT caller name order

    I'm having a problem with caller name and phonebook display when using E52 with Audi Bluetooth MMI - the order of first and last name is reversed, so the car display shows LAST, FIRST instead of FIRST LAST. The interesting thing is the good old 6300 works fine. Is there anything I can do (besides editing all contact entries)?
    Thanks!

    Hello My ipads Power button is not working properly when I press it once it shows option to turn off instead of locking and some other display problems like it suddenly lockes down or display disappears ...Please help. Thank You

    Thanks for that information!
    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

  • Nokia E71: Messaging Button and Name and Date Form...

    Two questions:
    1. When in stand-by mode and I click on the Messaging button, it always directs me to my e-mail. I would like to set it as such that it will go to my Inbox, instead.
    2. Is there a name separator I can use? On my inbox, the name format is "Last Name First Name". Is there a way I can change it to "Last Name, First Name" or much better would be "First Name Last Name"?
    3. Lastly, I prefer my dates with the months spelled out, like "15 Nov 2008" instead of "15.11.08" It works for older Nokia models, like my brother's phone. Where can I set this for my new E71?

    1: Menu -> Tools -> Settings -> General -> Personalisation -> One-touch Keys and change it from there. there are different options for short presses and long presses.
    2: I think you need to get your contacts organised which in turn will organise your inbox! Go to your contacts -> Options -> Settings -> Name Display....
    3: Can't help you with number 3 since they dont seem to have the ability to have the name of the month displayed, just the number of it. Maybe someone else knows how its done. Good luck to you.

  • Finder not working properly, randomly creates a folder called "Name"

    Hello,
    Finder has all of a sudden started to cause some really odd and sporadic file/folder navigation issues. Whenever I try to access a directory, Finder creates a folder called Name, makes random folders within the directory disappear, or both. It's odd because as soon as I either log out or restart, the problem subsides, but then it comes back -- for no apparent reason. I've taken a look at all of the logs, repaired permissions, verified disks, and dumped the Finder .plist files, but still no remedy. FWIW, this all started happening after updating to 10.7.4.
    Someone else posted a very similar thread on this matter, so I know I'm not losing my mind. Is anyone else has the same problem?

    Demo 92,
    I know it has been awhile but did you get any help or find a solution for this? Also, please link the threads you wrote about. I am having this issue as well.
