E90: How to enter a space into a phone number?

Hi,
does anyone know if it's possible to enter a space into a phone number in the E90's Contacts manager? It is possible with my Nokia 9500, and I transferred my contacts from it to the E90, and spaces in phone numbers were preserved, but when I enter a new contact I can't find any way to enter a space! This is very frustrating, as I find it very useful to pad out numbers with spaces, for example to make it clearer which provider a mobile number has, or what city code a land line has, and it also makes it easier to read out numbers over the phone. I have the same problem with hypens, which are handy for separating extension numbers from the rest of the number. I see that there is an optional label "Extension (bus.)", but that's not much use if the extension is for the fax machine...

Thanks for your suggestions, and for bringing OVI to my attention, which I hadn't heard of before. However, all the suggestions require the use of another computer or service, whereas what I want is to be able to work with my communicator "stand alone" as far as possible, without having to rely on other systems, especially Windows systems! One of the features I most appreciate about the E90 is the USB interface, which means I can make backups without having to rely on software that only runs under Windows. In my case this means I can make backups to my Linux PC very quickly and easily, without needing to install any special software.

I don't know about the E90, but with the E61 and E71 you can:
- add spaces from OVI and then update the mobile
- add spaces in Outlook (or whatever PIM you use) and then update the mobile
- import a text file (using PC suite) with spaces from your PC to your mobile
My guess is that all of the above would work with the E90. Let me know!

    Check the country of the contact, then use the international prefix number and iOS will sort out the display of the number.

  • HT2486 How do you enter an extension to a phone number in contacts?

    How do you enter an extension to a phone number in contacts?

    From OSX daily:The easiest way is through your iPhone or add a semicolon ";" NOT a comma in Mac Address book .
    Though you’ve long been able to add automatically dialed extensions to contacts on the iPhone, the newest versions of iOS handle extensionsmuch more intelligently, allowing you to create a “Dial Extension” button to any specific contact. That extension dialer can be activated manually, making the navigation of telephony menus infinitely easier, here’s how to quickly add this to a contact:
    Open Contacts and tap the contact name to add the extension to, then tap the “Edit” button
    Tap the phone number entry, place the cursor at the end, then tap the “+*#” button to access additional options
    Choose “wait” then enter the extension afterwards, it will add a semicolon and the extension afterwards to the address appearing like so: 1-888-555-5555;123
    Tap “Done” and exit out of contacts
    Now dial the contact to discover a “Dial 123″ button has appeared, tap that whenever you want to dial the extension
    The extensions can also be added from a Mac in Contacts (Address Book) by adding a semicolon to numbers followed by an extension, just be sure to sync it through the same iCloud account or it won’t go over to the iPhone.
    Anyone who frequently uses extensions to reach specific people at an office, or anyone who has battled an automated phone system knows how useful this can be. You can even set a string of numbers, though the Dial button remains the same.

  • How do i delete the previous owners phone number on iMessage on my iPhone 5?

    How do i delete the previous owners phone number from imessage in my iphone5?

    You did NOT erase all content in the phone if the previous owner's phone number is still associated with iMessage. Erasing all content will put the phone in an as new state, requiring activation, which you can NOT do without a SIM card. If the original owner did not remove their iCloud account and they had find my iPhone turned on, you would not be able to activate it at all without the credentials for the original owners iCloud account.
    Can you still contact whoever you got it from?
    If so, have them go through this process on the phone: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5661
    If not... you may have been scammed.

    I am not able to send text messages to one particular person.  Error comes back to enter a valid 10-digit phone number or short code.  I have deleted this contact and re-entered numerous times and still get the same error code.  Any ideas?

    Are you entering a 10 digit number? Or, if it is not a North American number or you are not in North America, are you entering "+" followed by the country code and number?

  • How do I change my iPads FaceTime phone number?

    How do I change my iPads FaceTime phone number?

    If your wife's cell number was listed on the iPad, you must have set up the iPad using her iCloud account (Apple ID) instead of your own. iCloud automatically populates the phone number to other devices with the same iCloud account, but you should be able to deactivate it.
    That number that is assigned to your iPad is just an internal routing and billing number for your carrier. My carrier (AT&T) makes a clear statement in the legal documents that this number is not for phone calls or (SMS or MMS) messages, just for data delivery. For whatever reason, Apple does not allow it to be used in the iMessages system.

    Hello Everyone,
    We are starting to look at the new analyzer.  We cannot find how to Enter a query in a role.  In the old analyzer there was a button called this.  Where is it in the new analyzer?  How to you enter and assign a query to a role?
    Thanks so much!

    Hi,
    We have a new concept of authorization where you are no more suppose to assign the query to the role from business explorer.
    I am not sure if you have gone through this but see this link a it explains about the new authorization concept that is analysys authorization.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/be/076f3b6c980c3be10000000a11402f/content.htm
    Now we have to create authorization object and use existing SAP autorization objects to assign authorizations...
    Also you use advanced search for searching new authorization concept in BI...this will give you plenty of links for it.
    Thanks

  • How to design Storage Spaces with a large number of drives

    I am wondering how one might go about designing a storage space for a large number of drives. Specifically I've got 45 x 4TB drives. As i am not extremely familiar with storage spaces, i'm a bit confused as to how I should go about designing this. Here is
    how i would do it in hardware raid and i'd like to know how to best match this setup in Storage Spaces. I've been burned twice now by poorly designed storage spaces and i don't want to get burned again. I want to make sure if a drive fails, i'm able to properly
    replace it without SS tossing it's cookies. 
    In the hardware raid world, i would divide these 45 x 4TB drives into three separate 15 disk Raid 6's. (Thus losing 6 drives to parity) Each raid 6 would show up as a separate volume/drive to the parent
    OS. If any disk failed in any of the three raids, i would simply pull it out and put a new disk back in and the raid would rebuild itself. 
    Here is my best guess for storage spaces. I would create 3 separate storage pools each containing 15 disks. I would then create a separate
    Dual Parity Virtual Disk for each pool. (Also losing 6 drives to parity) Each virtual disk would appear as a separate volume/disk
    to the parent OS. Did i miss anything? 
    Additionally, is there any benefit to breaking up my 45 disks into 3 separate pools? Would it be better to create one giant pool with all 45 disks and then create 3 (or however many) virtual disks on top of that one pool?

    1) Try to avoid parity and esp. double parity RAIDs with a typical VM workload. It's dominated by small reads (OK) and small writes (not OK as whole parity stripe gets updated with any "ready-modify-write" sequence). As a result writes would be DOG slow.
    Another nasty parity RAID characteristic is very long rebuild times... It's pretty easy to get second (third with double parity) drive failure during re-build process and that would render the whole RAID set useless. Solution would be to use RAID10. Much safer,
    faster to work and rebuild compared to RAID5/6 but wastes half of raw capacity...
    2) Creating "islands" of storage is an extremely effective way of stealing IOPS away from your config. Typical modern RAID set would run out of IOPS long before running out of capacity so unless you're planning to have a file dump of an ice cold data or
    CCTV storage you'll absolutely need all IOPS from all spindles @ the same time. This again means One Big RAID10, OBR10.
    Hope this helped a bit :) Good luck!
