First name and last name order in contact list

Actually, my contact list is displayed with the last name before the first name, but everything is fine in Address Book settings (I choosed "First name, Last name" option), and I checked that first name and last name has not been reversed for some reasons between two fields, the first name is right in place, as is the last name.
So changing this is AddressBook has no effect.
I tried disabling Chax, without success.
It could be possible this problem occured when I enabled Microsoft Exchange address book synchronization, (iSync reported 500+ changes in AB database, I did it anyway and noticed no problems in data after synchronization (I still have a backup :-))
One more thing , the displayed name in the iChat menu extra is correct.
So, what could possibly change this behavior I did not already check ?

Hi Yann,
If you add details to the Address card in iChat as you add a Buddy then you need the first set of instructions I posted.
You nee this menu in iChat http://www.flickr.com/photos/90943061@N00/135575605/
In the second section of this menu you can sort the list.

Ahhh. I see what you mean.
iChat does in fact always display First Name, Last Name as you say.
Adding a Buddy with the names in the reverse order to display as you want in iChat your Address book gets messed up as it is not consistent with those contacts that are not iChat Buddies.
The only work around I can see is to change all the Address Book entries to match a reverse entry in iChat and then use the Address Book option to display Last Name, First name to show them the 'correct' Fist name, Last name and have them in Last name, First name in iChat.

  • Separating 1st name and last name in contact name in a component

    Hi,
    I have a requirement as follows:
    "while creating opportunity and after selecting the account, a pop up window prompted to choose the contact person.The form of the name has the Contactu2019s Lastname and Firstname concatenated into a field labeled u201CNameu201D.
    Now we need to
    --Separate the Name into First Name and Last Name"
    When I checked, the pop up is the componet BTPARTNER.Can any one suggest how to achieve the above?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    you can have a look at Component BTPARTNER, View PartnerSelList, Context node BTQRSPARTDET, Attribute STRUCT.NAME1 -> GET_NAME1. Here you can see how the Name field is composed and you can change the coding, for example transfer the Last Name part to another field via set_property method and keep the First Name part in this field.
    Kind regards,

  • Anyone have problems with apple ID's? I have the correct ID in my settings but when I try to update my apps my ID shows my first name and last name but not my ID? I'm not sure what else to do because I've made sure I have the correct ID in my settings!

    I think its meant to show your name, not your ID.

  • Getting  approver first name and last name

    Hi,
    Im using Multi Approval sub process for sending Approval request to multiple approvers, im unable to get the first name and last name of the approver who had responded to it.

    Hello,
    The <ref>Actual_Approver</ref> should bring you back the accountId for the actual approver for that item. Depending on how your setup is you should be able to take that information and call out to your resource and bring back that user's specific attributes. Granted your internal accountId, and your resource account Id are probably not the same so you might have to do some massaging, but you can get what you need....There should be a way to do it internally also..references the fullname attibute..but off the top of my head I can't think of a way to do that.
    Hope this helps.

  • JPDK : first name and last name

    hi
    Using JPDK, I would like to build a portlet that displays the Portal user's first name and last name. (This information was provide when I created the Portal user.)
    Seems to me that this should not be difficult, but I don't know what API I'm supposed to use.
    Suggestions anyone?
    tnx

    hi
    In 9iAS r2, Oracle Portal uses Oracle Internet Directory to store data about a Portal user.
    Would it be "good practice" to use the information returned from ProviderUser.getName() to query OID for the first name and last name?
    If not, what is the "intended way" to do this?
    tnx

  • First Name and Last Name goes missing while doing a Request Download for BP

    Hi Friends,
    We started doing a request download for some of the BP's from ECC to CRM. For some BP's the download was working fine but for some BP's the first name and last name are missing. Kindly suggest how do we correct these BP's and how can we restrict this issue not to happen while doing a request download. The object with which we are doing the download is CUSTOMER_MAIN.
    Regards,
    Jan.

    Check if first and last name exist in the Bdoc in SMW01. If it is missing in the BDoc,  that means it is not transferred in BAPI structure to CRM.
    You can check modules CRS_SEND_TO_SERVER on R/3 side, to check the BAPI structures , for presence of first and last names. Then in CRM, you can de-register the queue in txn:SMQR, debug the queue entry , and put a breakpoint in mapper module(which you can find from txn. R3AC1) to check for the incoming BAPI data.

  • 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;

  • Why can't I set up an apple ID alternate email using my first name and last name?

    I am trying to set up an alternate address to my appleID using my first name and last name.  It keeps saying it is "rejected" but it gives me no reason.  I thought maybe someone was squatting on it, but when I try to send a note to it, it says that it isn't a valid address.  Does Apple prevent you from using an iCloud device with your name?  Seems odd since it allows other combinations of my name.

    Hello amg1957,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you're trying to add an alternate email address to your Apple ID account, the email needs to be an existing valid email address.  To configure an alternate email address with a valid existing email, please follow the directions below.
    Alternate email address
    You can add one or more alternate email addresses for use with Apple services such as Game Center, FaceTime, Find My Friends, iMessage, and OS X notifications.
    Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com).
    Select “Manage your Apple ID” and sign in.
    Add an alternate address:
    Select Add Email Address, then enter your alternate address. Apple will send a verification email to that address. Didn't receive the email?
    Follow the instructions in the email to verify the address.
    Edit an alternate address:
    Select Edit next to the address, then enter the new address. Apple will send a verification email to that address. Didn't receive the email?
    Follow the instructions in the email to verify the address.
    Delete an alternate address: Select Delete next to the address.

  • HT201401 HI ive forgotten my apple id and password, and also the name and last name i used to set up my iphone 4s what do i do?

    my iphone 4s wont turn back on after the battery died, have tried all the steps, still not working. contacted my network provider they said to send it in but before that turn off find my iphone. I am unable to do so as ive forgotten my apple id and password, i have followed the steps and im stuck as i do not know what name and last name i put when registering with icloud as i didnt want to give out such information at the time,(as in i made up the name n last name).
    Can anyone help me???

    That my friend is why you don 't make up a lie; you get yourself stuck in this kind of circle.
    First; how do you forget the apple id and password, that apple id is most likely an > EMAIL < address that you /PERSONALLY/ put into the device to sign up for the service. Once you remember your own email; you need to go to https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid for further assistance on resetting your password
    You don't need the first and last name; it just makes it a lot harder to locate your account if you REALLY can't remember
    If you cannot find any infomation then you sir are SOL;

  • Issue with transformation class when i have same first name and last name

    Hi All,
    we have a custom transform that will get the record from the trusted recon from Oracle DB, build the User Login, then check the OIM DB USR table for the existance of the user id.
    - If the user ID already exist, then they modify the new one to make it unique.
    The issue we are finding is that if there are two or more records with the same first and last names that would generated the same login id, that the first one is NOT committed in the DB before the 2nd one is checked on.
    - Then the 2nd will attempt to save as the same userid which will fail.
    Regards
    $sid

    I would recommend to put the User Login generation algorithm in the Pre Process Event Handler which will act at the latest state of DB and no race condition will exist. Database sequence too can be a good option if client is ready for it. The reason is it may be that if there are only 3 John Miltons already, the next User Login should be JMILTON4... However, database sequence will continue to generate numbers no matter what... So, it may even come JMILTON1213... Each time database sequence is read, it increases by 1 and probably this is not what the client would want because it breaks their user Login generation algorithm...

  • 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?
