  • Just switched from Samsung Epic to iPhone 4s. Contacts were filed by first name, which I prefer.  But on the iPhone it's by last name.  Is there a way to change that?

    Just switched from Samsung Epic to iPhone 4s. Contacts were filed by first name, which I prefer.  But on the iPhone it's by last name.  Is there a way to change that?

    What I found: Go into SETTINGS - Click onto "MAIL,CONTACTS, CALENDARS" then scroll down to CONTACTS and you will see SORT ORDER and DISPLAY ORDER you can change it to first, last or last, first..
    Hope that helps.

  • Sync ok but outlook 2003 contacts filed by first name

    I have a Treo 600 smartphone using the palm os and just bought BB Rim curve 8310. The sync went fine but all my contacts are filed by first name which is unacceptable.  The "file as field" in outlook does not come up in the advanced sync choices.  Please tell me how to change this.  Many thanks.

  • Auto generate login name basis on user first initial and last name... LC designer

    First initial + last name= login name...
    Text field   + text field  = text field....
    can I use javascript to generate the loginname form first name (first Int) and last name???
    For ex... First name: John
                 middle int: k
                 last Name: Doe
                LoginName: jdoe
    var LoginName = getField("LastName").value;
             var FirstName = getField("FirstName").value;
             if (FirstName!="")
             LoginName += " " + FirstName.substring(0,1) + "."
             event.value = LoginName;
    not sure if this is right... please help

    You guys are both using Acrobat JS notation so you're not going to have much luck.
    In LC there's no getField or event.value and values are returned from fields using fieldName.rawValue (or .formattedValue).
    I put this on the Calculate event of the LoginName field:
    var vFirstName = FirstName.rawValue;
    var vLastName = LastName.rawValue;
    if (!(FirstName.isNull || LastName.isNull)) { // if both fields have data
    this.rawValue = vFirstName.substring(0,1) + vLastName;

  • Cannot tab out of contact first name field in CSXSRISR

    Hi,
    For some specific customers, we have this strange issue. If a value from LOV is chosen for the contact first name, last name or email, user cannot get out of the field. There is no error message. Unless the contact field is cleared, the user cannot enter any more details or save the SR. Does anyone know why this would happen?
    Appreciate your help.
    Alka.

    Hi Alka,
    Dont you see any message at bottom left corner of Oracle Apps screen?
    Looks like some validation is failing when exiting the field.
    Also please check if there is any personalization/customization in the form.
    Regards,

  • History - turn on columns "First Visited" and "Last Visited" replacing/instead of "Visit Date"?

    Sometime before Firefox 3.x, in the History window -- it would show you columns of "First Visited" and "Last Visited".
    Now you only get "Visit Date" which is equivalent to "Last Visited".
    * Question -- anyone know how to bring back the "First Visited" column to the History window?
    * I looked in about:config and couldn't find anything.
    * I searched for a Addon and didn't find a current one. (There used to be an Addon called Extended History Manager that would show that column but an administrator disabled the download page for it.)
    * Anyone know how to bring back the "First Visited" column?
    Having that column by default in the Mozilla suite browser. (pre Firefox) was awesome! And at least in Firefox 1 and 2 you could use Extended History Manager Addon. I miss "First Visited"! :(

  • SQL select Statement -first day and last day of the month - 1 year from now

    Hi,
    I need to write a SQL to get the dates in between first day and last day of the month one year from now.
    SELECT last_day(add_months(sysdate,12)) as lastday from dual
    What could be the Query to get the first day of the month one year from now..
    ie ..Sysdate - 3-DEC-2009
    Result - 1-DEC-2010
    thank you

    Hi,
    You can use TRUNC with 2 arguments to get the first DATE in a month, year, quarter, week, hour, minute, ISO year, ...
    SELECT  TRUNC ( ADD_MONTHS ( SYSDATE
                               , 12
                  , 'MONTH'
                  )     AS first_of_month
    FROM    dual
    ;The DATE returned will be in the same month, year, quearter, ... as the first argument.
    \We convered the last day of the month in [your previous question|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=3942939#3942939].
    At that time, I warded about using LAST_DAY as a cutoff point; TRUNC is a much better way.
    For example, to find all appointment_dates in the current month next year:
    SELECT  *
    FROM    appointments
    WHERE   appointment_date >= TRUNC (ADD_MONTHS (SYSDATE, 12), 'MONTH')
    AND     appointment_date <  TRUNC (ADD_MONTHS (SYSDATE, 13), 'MONTH')Note that
    the first part of the WHERE clause calls for dates on or equal to the beginning of the 12th month in the future, but
    the second part of the WHERE clause calls for dates before, not equal to , the beginning of the 13th month in the future.

  • Alternative for first-child and last-child

    Hi all,
    I am looking to style a ListView with rounded corners (similar to iOS), but so far, I have not been able to find a way to do this without first-child and last-child pseudoselectors, which are not supported in JavaFX, according to http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/api/javafx/scene/doc-files/cssref.html.
    Simply setting rounded corners on a ListView causes the ListCells to pop out, unless I set rounded corners on them as well. But I only want to to this on the top and bottom child.
    Does anyone have a workaround for this ?

    Can't you solve it by setting a border on the top and the bottom of your listview?

  • Address book sync with google contacts - first names and last names flipped

    Hi,
    I am trying to sync my mac address book with my contacts in google/gmail and I have a strange issue.  All my contacts written in english alphabet is syncing correctly, but when I have names in Korean characters, the last name and first name gets flipped.  Without fail.  All other fields seem to synch correctly, but the first name is mapped to the last name field, and vice versa.  I have recently upgraded to OS X Lion on an iMac.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Jay

    can anyone answer this?
    at some point, I remember being able to do this. 10.5.x maybe? With 10.6 . . . .
    I do recall, however, that I stopped doing it because the sync went haywire. I did it the other way around: I have all my contacts in Address Book, so I exported them and uploaded the vCards to Gmail, after deleting all Gmail contacts. That's not such a great option. Surely this is well-automated by now?

  • Change Mail COntacts First Name Last Name order

    When opening contacts from Mail the contact names are listed and sorted by First name. How do I change this to listing and sorting my last name first?

    I believe it honors the preferences in Address book. Try Opening Address book and going to Address Book > Preferences > General Tab > Select Name order and sort by.

  • Contacts - First name / Last name

    Hi all,
    I have a Nokia N95 8GB on Vodafone.
    My contacts are organised so they show First Name then Last Name in the address book.
    However in txt messages they only show this way round sometimes.
    E.g. sometimes they show First Name then Last Name, and other times they will show up Last Name then First Name.
    Very, very anoying when it's the wrong way round sometimes, and the right way round other times.
    I have the latest software for my device.
    Any ideas!?
    Thanks!
    - Gavin

    Yup have tried resetting the contacts setting to switch it the wrong way round, didn't solve the problem - then back to the correct way round, also didn't solve the problem.
    It's just the way that sometimes it shows firstname then lastname, and sometimes it shows lastname then firstname. Not one or the other but both ways round.
    I have txts in my inbox that are first name first, underneath txts that are lastname first.
    All very confusing I'm sure you can imagine!!

  • Contacts' first name field gets inserted in last name field when syncing

    I have a strange behavior when syncing between iOS and the Mac:
    A few contacts that I have only have a first name, let's say "Anna".
    Everything runs fine on iOS - I write that person a mail and everything's fine. But the moment I write Anna a mail on my Mac the last name field also gets the entry of the first name field, thus leading to the contact "Anna Anna".
    All I can do now is delete the last name field and everything's fine till I write a message on my Mac again.
    Note: this problem only occurs on my Mac, not on iOS.
    Second ote: the moment I'm sending the Mail on my Mac, iOS gets this error over sync.
    Third note: I recognized that Mail.app's autocomplete/history of contacts has somehow stored those accounts like "Anna Anna". Removing the Previous Recipients from the list hasn't solved the problem yet.
    This problem only covers 4 of my contacts, but being the most used ones this is driving me nuts.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Best regards,
    Tobi

  • For the previous month first day and last day

    i want to schedule my reports from the last month first date to last month last date.
    any body have queries for the while scheduling to uuse it.
    Ex:sysdate() - today's date
    first_day_of_month()- first day of current month
    first day of last month ---?
    last day of the last month ---?

    In the parameter, put this
    {$FIRST_DAY_OF_MONTH()$}other values you can use in default parameter values are
    {$SYSDATE()$} - to get current date
    {$FIRST_DAY_OF_MONTH()$} - to get first day of the current month
    {$FIRST_DAY_OF_YEAR()$} - to get first day of the current year
    {$LAST_DAY_OF_MONTH()$} - to get last day of the current month
    {$LAST_DAY_OF_YEAR()$} - to get last day of the current year
    Re: Default date as first of month
    TO get last day of last month
    {$FIRST_DAY_OF_MONTH()-1$}You can add/subtract number with these functions and no other functions are available.
