Exchange/activesync "File As" field is blank

Hi
I have moved from windows mobile 6 to iPhone.
I have configured my iPhone to connect to the company Exchange 2003 to import email/contacts/calendar; push email works and contacts sync.
My problem is when I add a contact on the iPhone...
First Name: <blank>
Last Name: <blank>
Company: iWidgets
Add a new phone, company main, 0404 040 404
then save, done.
The new contacts arrives as expected on the exchange server but...
the "File As" field in outlook web access is blank and on windows mobile phones the new contact is filed under Unknown.
The result is that the new contact is difficult to find in the microsoft world and we end up with a messy contact list.
The problem is that the iPhone leaves the "File As" field blank.
I have tried iPhone "add field" but I can't find "File As"
Is there any way to change the iPhone behavior?

Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, I'm still having no luck. I've gone to the about:config page and reset all download and extension listings to DEFAULT. After that not working, I uninstalled Foxfire and reinstalled and still same issue. I know it's something with my Foxfire because IE and Chrome allow me to "save as" images. I just can't figure out why I'm not able to now with Foxfire.

  • MDM IOS Activesync File left, remove Exchange account

    During our initial Test,
    we ha the Profile :
    MDM IOS ActiveSync File
    wich created an an Exchange Account on the IOS Devices, unfortunatly this account cannot be removed, and currently we hve no ActiveSync / Exhange Server defined, this must result in no Policy.
    I have tried to update the device, by upload the new profile, but the Exchange Account (an the MDM the profile ios Activesync File ) is still on the device and cannot be removed.
    So how can we handle this ?
    best regards

In this case the ZMM server acts as an ActiveSync server so that it can provide ActiveSync policies to the device. You would be unable to delete that profile as long as you are protecting profiles. You could delete the MDM profile entirely which would also remove this one.

    Scratch my previos note... that's not what happens.
    I more looks like it some how get's connected using the active sync server but then not able to make a complete sync.
    This is a problem I see in two setups at the momment, so any ideas on this would be nice. Or maybe just a log to look in.
    The user gets created in ZMM but then does not get the automatically mail created. The log tells me this:
    "Login rejected: user Failed to Authenticate to Active Sync Server (invalid username or password)"
    What I don't get is that it's able to create the user in ZMM but not to sync.

  • Outlook not sync contacts with changed "file as" field?

    I am syncing contacts and calendar from Outlook on my office PC (and everything else from Mac at home). I have a very large contact list and have noticed that a number of key contacts have not synced. It appears that any contacts with a changed "file as" field have not been syned (e.g. contact entry of "Daniel Smith" with "file as" field altered in Outlook to show "Dan Smith" does not show anywhere on iPhone). Needless to say, these are actually the contacts that I use most often so I'm hoping to find a solution.
    On a related point, it's hard to determine exactly how many contacts are not syncing b/c I can't find anyplace on the iPhone or in iTunes that lists shows info on the number of contacts (so I can't compare to my count in Outlook).
    Has anyone else experienced this problem? Are there any known solutions or work-arounds? (I'm hoping to avoid a full export, clean-up, and import to iPhone through the Mac Address Book or similar b/c I'm concerned that in then trying to sync w/ Outlook I'd get duplicates. Also, my contact list has thousands of contacts so it would be very dedious. My current work-around is to still carry my Treo in my briefcase, which is not ideal).
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    boynsea: Thanks for the input, but isn't the IMAP aspect of Outlook limited to the way one can connect to an Exchange server for e-mail? I've been successful in getting the IMAP connection for e-mail working. Contacts and calendar are designed to sync when physically docked with the computer rather than over-the-air; I know, if something like exchange activesync is ever licensed for iPhone then the calendar can be updated over-the-air, but I suspect that contacts will always be synced only when docked (which is how my Treo was set up).
    Anyway, I did test my theory about the "file-as" field by changing a few contacts back to their default display and now they sync just fine. I really don't want to have to do this for all contacts, and can't actually tell how many are involved since I haven't found anyplace that the number of contacts is listed. Also, does anyone know if there is a readily accessible syncronization log that can be checked? That might show those contacts that are rejected.
    Thanks.

  • Is there a way of hiding the ? symbol if a record's image field is blank?

    If that makes sense....
    Basically I've set up a details page on a site that allows the site owner to display up to three images. However, sometimes they'll only upload one or two images.
    Which currently looks like this :
    http://www.travel7107.com/destinationDetails.php?destinationID=57
    Is there some way to get rid of the little ? icons where the image field is empty?
    I tried uploading a small white image, and setting the fields to blank.gif as the default, but the file upload script seems to overwrite those with an empty field if no image is selected to upload.
    So at the moment I've given them that small image to use if they don't have images, but it would be good to know if there was a way of avoiding that step?

    Thanks for that. Not sure I'm getting the syntax quite right though.
    The original lines look like this :
    <img border="0" src="/destinationdetailpic.php?file=images/destinationpics/<?php echo $row_WADAdestinations["image_2"]; ?>">
    So I thought it should be :
    <img src="/destinationdetailpic.php?file=images/destinationpics/<?php echo $row_WADAdestinations["image_2"] = true ? $row_WADAdestinations["image_2"] : ''; ?>" alt="">
    But that's not right :

  • URGENT: SBS 2011 Exchange log files filling up drive in minutes!

    I need some help with ideas as to why Exchange is generating hundreds of log files every minute.
    The server had 0MB free on the C: drive, and come to find out, there were over 119,000 log files in the Exchange server folder (dated within the last 7 days).  These files are named like E00001D046C.log.  Oddly, the Exchange database store
    is not growing in size as you'd expect.  Frantically searching for a way to free up space, I turned on circular logging and remounted the store (after freeing up enough space for it to mount!).  Almost instantly, the 119,000+ log files disappeared,
    but now there are about 40 or so that are constantly being created/written/deleted, over and over and over.
    This is a small 5 person office with a 4GB database store.  The 119,000 log files were taking up over 121GB.  It's nice to have that space back, but something is in a loop, constantly creating log files as fast as the system can write them.
    I checked the queues...nothing.  Where else can I look to see what might be causing this?
    Thanks for the help.
    ps.  Windows server backup failed about the time this problem started, stating the backup drive is out of space.  It's a 2TB drive, backing up 120GB of data.  Isn't it supposed to delete old backups to make room for new?

  • Mixing Html/JSP - Is it possible to retain value in "file" input field?

    I have a jsp page with the following snippet:
    <% String text1 = (String)session.getAttribute("text1");
    if(text1 == null) {
    text1 = " "; }
    //get more attributes here
    %>
    <form name="file" action="checkFields_images.jsp" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <input type="text" size="15" name="text1" value="<% =text1 %>"><br>
    <input type="file" name="image1" />
    <br>
    <input type="text" size="15" name="text2">
    <br>
    <input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
    </form>
    ...upon submission, it will go to a jsp that will check the fields for blanks or errors. If there are errors, the page will forward the user BACK to the original page, and each field that had an entry will be displayed with what the user had entered.
    The way my code operates is when the user hits the submit button, the jsp page that checks the fields is also setting the values submitted in session attributes. Those of you familiar with JSP code will know what I mean.
    That way when the page is redisplayed the "value" attributes of each <input> field will be set to what the user entered by way of such:
    <input type="text" name="text1" value="<%=text1%>">
    where <%=text1%> is a java variable set to the session attribute value for this <input> field.
    Now I know that the <input type="file> field has a value attribute, but I don't believe it is something that can be set. So how do I workaround this? I just want the field to display the file name the user had selected. I've worked with mixing JavaScript and Java code, but there are certain things you can and can't do, and I'm coming up with any "can do's" for this one.
    Any suggestions are appreciated
    Thank You,
    Love2Java

    You are absolutely correct.
    For security reasons, you can't specify a value for the input type="file".
    Here is one suggestion, of how I would see it work in a perfect world.
    - The file is uploaded and retained on the server
    - You send back a page without an input type="file"
    - The user fixes whatever fields they got wrong and submits again
    - The server picks up the correct fields, along with the file sent with the "bad" request, and then continues as normal.
    In this way, you only have to upload the file once.
    Instead of regenerating the <input type="file">, it would generate something like "File already uploaded. Correct other fields"
    pros:
    - Don't have to worry about repopulating the input type="file"
    - user only uploads the file once
    cons:
    - if the user wants to change the file? Maybe another link?
    - must retain file on server somewhere, and find it later.
    I didn't say it was easy, but it seems the most sensible approach to me.

  • File upload field

    I have a profile update page, with a file field where the user can upload a photo.

    Well I'm a newbie at OAS Portal so I used the Form based on a table and there in the FILE_ field I changed it from textbox to File Upload(binary), and then I ran the form and I filled all the textbox and then chose the file I wanted to upload I clicked on insert, then the row was inserted and then I tried to open the file but nothing happened!
    =(
    so probably is that the form is trying to save the file directly in the database right... so I must change the field type... right??

  • Exchange ActiveSync - Exchange server down

    We had a situation this weekend where the Exchange store didn't come up properly after a restart. Apparently, there was a sync pending for one of the iPhones when this happened, as the Application log was quickly flooded with error messages:
    Unexpected Exchange mailbox Server error: Server: [sbs2.xxxxxx.com] User: [[email protected]] HTTP status code: [503]. Verify that the Exchange mailbox Server is working correctly.
    This error was being posted about twice per second. While the error log getting hammered isn't ideal, the bigger issue was that the user's phone was rapidly draining the battery from all of the activity.
    Does anyone know if there is a way to prevent this in the future?

    Hi..  Welcome to the Palm forums.  Well I will answer your questions as best I can.  First here is a link for the Administrators Guide for MicroSoft Exchange Activesync  http://www.palm.com/us/support/handbooks/treo/Treo650_ExchangeActiveSyncAdminGuide.pdf.  As you look thru it you will see that when it is talking about your data it states that it syncronizes which means the device updates the server and visa versa when you sync. So in answer to your question, if you setup a 680 to sync to an exchange server does it sync or simply update the server?  The exchange server has the ability for it to syncronize, both update each other.  Now I am not a system administrator but I would strongly believe that feature can be modified on the server end and that may be the case with a free exchange server account.  So what they are telling you is either they have their server set only to update the mobile device or they dont know how to set it up any other way.  As expensive as the MicroSoft Exchange Activesync software is I would assume that full service would be for a fee.  So in answer to question 1, yes an Exchange Server will syncronize (providing it is setup to do so).  Now for question 2.  In regards to the Pre, There's no special client application that we know of.  You can connect the Pre as a mass-storage device via mini usb and drag-and-drop into preexisting folders made for those files.  As for other types of syncing, such as Outlook, we have no information as to how that will work yet.  The best information available (about the only information) is at www.palm.com/pre.

  • Exchange Activesync Setup Trouble

    We are attempting to use the iPhone Configuration Utility to setup our new iPads and iPhones. I am running into problems getting Exchang Activesync to configure properly. I can manually setup each iPad to work correctly, but when attempting to use a profile (prompting users to enter their account information when the profile installs) the profile adds their email address incorrectly.
    After entering all of the Exchange information and installing the profile on an iPad, the Exchange account incorrectly adds a "mail." to the server address. So for instance if our Exchange server is "mail.servername.xx" and email should be "[email protected]"  the profile is being installed with their email address as:
    "[email protected]"  As a result the configuration of their account fails. I should add that our user names are not the same as our email account; is this confusing the utility/
    How do I get the configuration profile to stop adding the "mail." to the email address?

    For anyone having trouble setting up exchange email on your HTC Droid DNA i think my own started working now with this simple steps:
    Email address: Your email
    Server Address: mail.com
    Domain: Blank
    Username: Your complete email address

  • ODS Key Fields allows blank values in Transformation

    Dear Experts,
    I have two layers:
    1. Datawarehouse layer (purpose is to represent exactly data at the backend)
    2. Consolidation Layer
    Scenario 1:
    In Datawarehouse layer, the fiscal variant is a key field in ODS and I have two other key fields i.e. combine to form a composite key.
    When I load the data from PSA to this ODS, I have a record which contains blank value for the fiscal variant. It successfully loads into the Datawarehouse ODS.
    Sceanrio 2:
    In the consolidation layer, i have 4 key fields out of which fiscal variant is one of them. Now when I load the data from the datawarehouse ods to consolidated ods, it throws an error saying:
    Diagnosis
         An exception fiscvarnt_missing was raised while executin
         module RST_TOBJ_TO_DERIVED_TOBJ .
    System Response
         Processing the corresponding record has been terminated.
    The transformation mapping for the fiscal varaint in both sceanarios is 1:1 mapping with the rule type 'Time Characteristic'.
    My questions is:
    1. Why different behaviour during scenario 1 and sceanario 2
    2. Solution to the above issue
    Thanks

    Thanks J.S.
    Yes the format selected in the field for the datasource is 'Internal'.
    When loading the data from R3>PSA>ODSX(Datawarehouse Layer), I have no problems even when the field is blank.
    When loading from ODSX-->ODSY(Consolidated Layer) the empty (blank) field for that records throws error.
    Any ideas?

  • Can Exchange activesync be used for calendar and contacts without BES?

    I thought it could- just got a Z10 and am having trouble syncing with a cloud service that uses EAS Tech support just told me that I have to be on BES for that? Wasn't what I thought. Knowledge base article KB34208 "Sync time frame for calendar events when using a Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync connection " Says nothing about BES in the Environment section? http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/viewdocument.do?externalId=KB34208&sliceId=2&cmd=displayKC&d... Hoping guy was wrong- I really need to be able to get my desktop info onto phone and this is convoluted enough- syncing to cloud and then to phone but want to keep the phone (4th BB and a PB). Help please.

    you dont need BES10. you can do EAS directly from the device to the Exchange Server.

    Considering this policy is to increase the security by encrypting the device ,there maybe some conflicts here if the the device has been protected by the Bitlocker .This is just my own assumption.
    To understand this policy more deeply ,it is recommended to ask for help from our Exchange Forum .They are more familiar with this policy and they may have more resources to help understand this issue .
