Help Needed on Importing Pictures for a Contact...

I've managed to get a picture or two in Addressbook, but it must have been pure luck. Tonight I went to replace the "flower" that is next to a persons name, and though I dragged a picture into the little frame where you can enlarge and shrink it successfully, and I pressed the button that says "SET"....the picture never "takes" and replaces the one that is there.
Is there a catch to easily getting a picture to go in here?
Thanks for any advice
Tom

Try this (from AB help):
Address Book supports pictures in JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, PDF, or just about any graphics format. If you can view the image with Preview (located in the Applications folder), Address Book can generally use the image as a picture for a card.
To choose an image for a contact:
Select the contact to which you want to add an image and click Edit.
Double-click the image if there is one. If there is no image, double-click the box to the left of the contact's name.
Click Choose and locate the image you want to use.
Drag the image in the box to select the portion you want to appear in the box.

    Events are organised strictly on date and time, as read by iPhoto from the Exif data in the Photo. You cannot manually sort.
    Create Albums. You can do much more organising with Albums, use Photos from different events, place them as you will. Best of all, Albums use no disk space at all. They simply reference the file on the Hard Disk. So a pic can be 1, 10 or 100 Albums with no wasted disk space whatever.

  • Which folder stores the pictures for my contacts?

    Which folder stores the pictures for my contacts?

    Hello trent1953,
         Congrats on getting the Droid Maxx! It's an awesome smartphone with so many features that you are sure to love. Transferring pictures from contacts are a piece of cake! May I ask do you have the Facebook app installed on the device? If not then I would suggest doing this first. After you have done so then log in so you can sync your Facebook contacts with your regular contacts. This way, the profile pictures will migrate with your Facebook contacts. Once done, please update us just in case more assistance is needed.
    Thank you...

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Try holding the Shift key while your Mac is starting to start into safe mode. Then, after starting in safe mode, open Finder, select Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type /Library/StartupItems. Then, empty this folder and restart the Mac.
    If your Mac starts after doing this, it was a problem with a third-party app that starts automatically when you turn on the computer. It won't start automatically anymore after doing that

  • My profile pictures for my contacts somehow got switched on my iphone 4.  I back it up to icloud and the correct pictures are on icloud. How can I fix?

    My profile pictures for my contacts somehow got switched on my iphone 4.  The pictures are correct on icloud where I sync.  Does anyone know what the problem is and how I can fix?

    Try resetting your iPhone.  Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.
    On a separate point, you may wish to consider updating your iPhone if you're still on iOS 5.0.1 as your post says.

  • Help with data imports and identifying correct contact

    Hi Guys,
    I am looking to import some data from a csv into a table called 'interactions'
    This table is linked to contact via a 1-to-many relationship.
    when I am importing data often I get errors saying that it cant determine which contact to use because we have contacts with the same name.
    Is there anyway I can import data into the 'interaction' table and not only say which contact this is attached to but also provide some more information such as the contacts parent account so that it can identify the correct contact more often and leave
    me less that I need to add manually?
    Many thanks in advance

    The data import wizard is built into CRM.  You can now place csv files of different entities into a single zipped file to do a sort of pseudo batch import.
    It may be helpful to download a template of the import file for the entity that you want to import.  This can be downloaded within CRM.  The benefit is that you are given the column headings.  And when you hover over a column heading, it tells
    you the data type it will expect.  I will use the template and just copy and paste the data in from another spreadsheet if I get the data from a user.  The import runs smoother then.
    If you have the resources, there are 3rd party tools such as Scribe that can import data from different sources into CRM.  A bit costly but you can get a trial version to test.  The trial may only be good for 2 weeks.  But it offers the ability
    to transform data if necessary for the import.

  • Import Pictures to the Contacts

    How can I import also the pictures from the Microsoft Outlook 2003 Contact profile to the iPod Contact? I see all details and informations from the Outlook profile, but not the picture. who can help me? I have an Video iPod

  • Pictures for my contacts, how N97 mini

    look at this picture of a N97 mini
    http://www.nokia.se/support-och-programvara/produk​tsupport/n97-mini
    Just above the facebook icon there are a picture to 4 contacts, how in the whole world do i do that.
    I tried for about 5 days now but cant get a grip of it, i have 4 small green dudes there and nothing changes whatever i do.
    I belive its a shortcut for a phonnumber to a contact with a picture on it for a fast call???
    Probably a very simple task to do anyway, if some 1 know how to do it , plz tell me.
    Sorry 4 my bad english, im from sweden

    Ok, maybe my explanation is not clear enough, so just as an example, go ---menu(silver Button)/tap photos/tap downloads/tap any photo that is there (for the purposes of this exercise it doesn't matter what the photo is)/tap Options and scroll down to Use image/ select Assign to contact/ select the first contact in your list/select OK.
    Right the photo you picked is now attached to the first contact in your contacts list, if they call you or you call them, the picture will appear above their details on phone screen.
    Now from home screen, tap one of the little squares on favourite contacts widget, when contacts open, tap the first contact on your contacts list and select ok. This contact and the photo you have attached will now appear on the widget. Assuming this works, and I promise it does, as I have both Favourite contacts widgets on my home screen with 8 photos and names, simply repeat the process, attatching photo's of the people you have as contacts, To remove a favourite contact:- go into contacts, highlight one of the contacts with a gold star next to them, select options, select Remove from favourites, select ok.
    Hope this helps
    Good Luck

  • Desperate help needed to configure WVC210 for remote access?

    Hi, I'm new and desperately need some help on setting up my WVC210 for remote access.
    I manage to setup and see images from my WVC210 using my home LAN via both wired and also wireless.
    I have 2 questions:
    (a) for wireless connection, i only manage to get connection to my WVC210 if i disable the wireless security from my router. But that means i'm opening my wireless LAN to everyone. How can i still get connection to the camera if i enable the wireless security from my router. (FYI: my router is 2Wire ADSL  from Singnet Mio)
    (b) how can i get connection to my WVC210 from outside or in my office? I type in the camera Fixed IP address (displayed on the front screen) on the web browser, by it shows a error page. Is there some setting that i might need to adjust ?
    Pls kindly help me
    Thank you.

    Bernard,
    For Item (2) is there any difference between the camera built-in dyndns updater versus the software updater? I am under the impression that the software updater is easier to manage.
    The biggest difference for you is that the camera always stays at the same location, and the laptop goes with you. Every time you access the internet from a different location with the laptop the software updater is sending the new IP address to dyndns.com. This causes you to lose access to your camera because the FQDN doesn't point to your home IP address anymore. Once the dyndns credentials are in the camera (or router) there is no management needed. The device will automatically update dyndns.com with your new IP address as it changes, and you do not need to do anything.
    For Item (3), are you saying port forward 1025 is it for the 2nd camera only or for both? Or is it 2nd camera use 1025 and first camera use 8080?
    Here's an example of what I mean:
    Camera 1: 192.168.1.210 port 1024. In router, forward port 1024 to 192.168.1.210
    Local Access: http://192.168.1.210:1024
    Remote Access: http://bernards210.dyndns.org:1024 (Example)
    Camera 2: 192.168.1.211 port 1025. In router, forward port 1025 to 192.168.1.211
    Local Access: http://192.168.1.211:1025
    Remote Access: http://bernards210.dyndns.org:1025 (Example)
    Camera 3: 192.168.1.212 port 1026. In router, forward port 1026 to 192.168.1.212
    Local Access: http://192.168.1.212:1026
    Remote Access: http://bernards210.dyndns.org:1026 (Example)
    to access the 2 camera outside, do i have to have another dyndns host name or can i use the current one for both camera?
    As you can see in the above example, the dyndns name remains the same for remote access to all three cameras. The only change is the port number at the end. Your router will translate the port number to the IP address that the port is forwarded to, allowing you to select the camera that you wish to view by changing the port number in the address.
    I was actually thinking that the camera web browser can show 2 camera at the same time. Is it possible?
    No. Each browser window will display a single camera. You can however opens multiple instances of your browser to allow viewing of more than one camera simultaneously. A better solution is to install the Video Monitoring Software that is included with the camera which allows you to view multiple cameras in the same window.

  • Cannot import pictures for my albums?

    Hey
    I have recently purchased the lovely iPod Touch and I would therefore like to download the pictures for my music. However, when I attempt this, I am told that the program was unable to download the pictures for some albums. I attempted to get pictures for a little over 500 songs and iTunes was unable to download 344 of them...
    How can this be?
    Best regards
    Jesper

    iTunes will only download covers for albums that are on sale in the store, if any of the songs aren't available in the iTunes Store you'd have to add the artwork for them manually. The automatic method also suffers from the occasional spelling quirk, for instance I recall reading that the last Radiohead album was listed (for a time at least) under Radioheads. You'll get information on both methods of adding artwork at this link: iTunes 7 for Mac - Adding artwork to songs and other items
    If you can't find the album covers you want from iTunes you can get them from various other sources. I find this site is a good source of artwork: CD/Album Cover Art Search from SlothRadio.
    Another place for finding suitable artwork is to go to Amazon. You can also locate artwork using Google image search and put the artist or album name. Locate the album from any of those sources, right click (or Control - click) on the image, choose "save image to the desktop" and once it's there drag it to the iTunes artwork pane. Once you've added the artwork you can either delete the original file or keep it in a folder somewhere in case you need to use it again.
    If you have a scanner you can create your own artwork files by scanning the CD cover itself, this is particularly useful when you are dealing with rare recordings.

  • Need second email address for a contact

    I need the ability to add a second email address for a contact. I have tried using ";" and "," characters in the email address line, but get an invalid data format error when saving. Short of adding a custom field, is there any way to do this?

    Neil, I believe your only option is adding a custom field.

  • Help. I need very important pictures off my I phone for a lawsuit but the email linked to her i cloud said its been recycled??? please help!!

    My daughters phone is totally broke and doesn't turn on and the e-mail linked to the I Cloud is recycled es that mean and please tell me there is still a way of recovering them??

    - Connect the iPod to the computer and see if iTunes sees it. If it sees it try to get the photos off the iPod.
    - Next let the battery fully drain. It will likely take days. After charging for at least an hour try again
    - Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
