Help with contact list :(
So I want to sync a phone number with a certain email account, right? I go to my list and only two of my emails is available. I check Default Services under Advanced Options and it's not there. The email in question is selectable when I want to choose which account to send a message from. I've gone through the host service business, deleted and undeleted, and no change. Thoughts?
First, be sure that the contacts on the devices are in the "icloud" section and not the "On my iPhone" (or iPad) section of the contact listings/groups.
Missing contacts:
Here's a test to perform - using a computer's browser, log into icloud.com and go to the Contacts page. If most of them are gone, then they are gone.
If they show up, then the problem is that your device is not connecting to the Contacts database on icloud.
On the device, go to Settings>icloud. Be sure icloud is on and using the right ID. If not, scroll to the bottom of the page and tap Delete Account - this just disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost. Then log back in using the correct ID. ALSO - be sure the Contacts are turned on (on the same screen).
Note: Contacts are not part of an iCloud backup, since they are part of contacts database on iCloud's servers. So performing a restore will not help.
Contacts are gone from icloud.com.
Then they have been deleted. There are many reasons for this. One possibility is that someone else is using the same iCloud account (family member, etc.) and they deleted contacts, thinking they did want them on THEIR device. How to get them back? Unfortunately, an iCloud backup does not include any of the sync databases, like contacts, notes, calendars, reminders, etc. because the data is already stored in these databases. Your only hope for restoring the data is if you had that data on a computer (like a mac's Contacts, Calendars, etc.) and that data was backed up using whatever backup software you typically use (e.g. Time Machine on a mac). Just restore the data files back to the computer. Other than that, I'm afraid the data is gone.

Ok, I just recently got the Iphone 4s. I need some help with contacts. I ended up adding my hotmail contacts to my phone and now every time I add a new contact, it adds the person to my hotmail contacts instead of my All On My Iphone contacts. I don't like it because I am adding phone numbers, not necessarily with email addresses.
If you sent me a message right now and I went in and added you as a contact, it adds you to my hotmail contacts instead of my iphone ones for some reason. How can I fix this? And if I delete my hotmail account temporarily (and re-add it) will I lose the contacts that my phone put in there mistakenly?Well, I don't care if it makes a back-up of my contacts in my hotmail. But, I would like my contacts to go to my actual phone contacts. I call and text much more than I email and it would be nice to have to not wade through my email contacts to find someone I am looking to text, etc.
I know it's not a huge hassle, but I prefer to keep the people I contact most within my text/phone contacts, rather than email.
Also, if I opt to change my email service (hotmail gets a lot of spam), I don't want to lose phone/text contacts because I no longer use that email anymore.
I wouldn't even care if they appeared in both, for my most contacted. I just would like to have them in my phone book without having to add them all by hand. -
New moto e 2nd gen problem with contact list,. all email in my contacts

Need help with contact recovery
i need some help please
i lost my bb 9900 last week and now am using a bb 8520 that has os 5.0 i believe
supposedly bb protect will not work with this phone so I cannot access my weekly backups from protect website
is there anyway i can transfer those online backups to my home mac computer so i can load to this phone without installing protect app? (it wont let me install on this phone)
if not - can someone from RIM send to me? i can see the backup files on protect website - latest from around when i lost my phone.
the reason for all this is i have many BBM contacts - and previously, i was able to restore using email when i got my 9900 and it loaded successfully - now, when i try retore by email - it states no contacts linked to my email address!
i dont have these bbm contacts on my mac since the last backup on the computer was last year - since then, i have only backed up using protect
i am having no luck at all!!!!sunnyb82 wrote:
but i dont understand your last part:
(this doesnt show up in my options tab for contacts)
As for the continued inability to restore your contacts from BB Protect, also check this:
On the BlackBerry smartphone, navigate to Contacts > Options > Desktop Contact List. Set Wireless Synchronization to No.
Check that same setting for any Contact Lists you have displayed in the Contacts Options area.
not sure what this all means > Further, if you are going to use Google as your Contact list source, then restoring from any source is moot...if Google has the correct data, then allowing it to continue OTA synchronization would be your best approach.
My point was that the Option setting indicated may or may not exist...if it exists, then it needs to be set to NO. If it does not exist, then it is not relevant (which I think is what applies in your case). In any event, since you were able to restore, all is well as far as contacts are concerned.

so i have my old BBM pin - how can i retrieve the BBM contacts from there? its linked to my gmail address because i restored by email to my 9900 last time
You have your old BBM PIN? Hmmm...I'm not quite sure what you mean by that. Knowing the PIN is just that...knowing the unique PIN that was assigned to your old BB at time of manufacture. But, for obtaining your old BBM contacts, you'd need the actual device or a successful backup that was previously created (either the Desktop Software or via the in-BBM backup method). Knowing only the PIN itself now, I don't see how that applies. Perhaps I do not understand?
Now, if what you did was do the remote in-BBM backup using an email address, then that's a different thing indeed. But I don't exactly know how that works...it may well be that it only works for the exact same BB and not to another BB. I've always used the local file BBM contact backup as I then know for certain that I have control over the backup file.

For free, only if you can convince your mobile service provider to escalate your case into RIM.
For a fee, you can ask via Incident Support, but it does cost to just ask the initial question, and I've no idea if there even is a way to accomplish what you are wanting to have them do (I rather doubt it, but I still do not quite understand what your request is):

Problem with contact list in email w/ 3.0
After upgrading to 3.0 I'm having a problem with the "To" in emails. I start typing in a name in the "To" field and it does not bring up matching entries in my contact list (it used to do so with the previous version SW).
I have to try to send the email at which time an error message comes up. I have to cancel the send, delete the name in the "To" field and type the name in again. The second time it brings up the contact list and eveything works fine.
Anyone else having this problem?Jackson_Bill wrote:

Hi,
there is a contact form on my site and it works to submit a message, but it always has my name as sender in it and my email adress to reply to!
This is a form where customers are booking appointments, the shop always thinks that the emails are coming from me!
I checked site manager - system emails - but what am I supposed to put in as from email? It should use the customers email, which will change all the time.
I need help with that fast!
Thanks in advance
cheers
CatHello Cat
The "From" email is the email that will be displayed as the sender of the email (although the email is always sent from our servers), so it is not the customer's email address. You can set it to any email address, that can be your client's email address too, so when a reply is sent, the reply would be sent to the client. This is about the email that is sent to the visitors of the site, also known as the "Autoresponder" email.
Cheers

Need help with contact syncing using iCloud. How do I do it?
I deleted LOTS of contacts on my iphone which syncs with icloud but now I want to sync my ipad using the icloud and do not want to have my ipad to override the corrected contact list. How do I do that?
Thanks. PatI did a back up as I too am paranoid. I am wondering if there is a way to wipe my contacts from my iPad and then do the merge?
When I was deleting all the contacts from my iPhone I thought it was best to turn off icloud on my iPad. In hindsight I think that was incorrect.
Thanks both of you for responding thus far. -
Help with linked lists and searching
Hi guys I'm very new to java. I'm having a problem with linked lists. the program's driver needs to create game objects, store them, be able to search the linked list etc. etc. I've read the API but I am really having trouble understanding it.
First problem is that when I make a new game object through the menu when running the program, and then print the entire schedule all the objects print out the same as the latest game object created
Second problem is searching it. I just really have no idea.
Here is the driver:
import java.util.*;
public class teamSchedule
public static void main (String[]args)
//variables
boolean start;
game game1;
int selector;
Scanner scanner1;
String date = new String();
String venue = new String();
String time = new String();
String dateSearch = new String();
double price;
String opponent = new String();
int addindex;
List teamSchedLL = new LinkedList();
String dateIndex = new String();
String removeYN = new String();
String venueIndex = new String();
String opponentIndex = new String();
start = true; //start makes the menu run in a while loop.
while (start == true)
System.out.println("Welcome to the Team Scheduling Program.");
System.out.println("To add a game to the schedule enter 1");
System.out.println("To search for a game by date enter 2");
System.out.println("To search for a game by venue enter 3");
System.out.println("To search for a game by opponent enter 4");
System.out.println("To display all tour information enter 5");
System.out.println("");
System.out.println("To remove a game from the schedule enter search for the game, then"
+ " remove it.");
System.out.println("");
System.out.println("Enter choice now:");
scanner1 = new Scanner (System.in);
selector = scanner1.nextInt();
System.out.println("");
if (selector == 1)
//add a game
scanner1.nextLine();
System.out.println("Adding a game...");
System.out.println("Enter game date:");
date = scanner1.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter game venue:");
venue = scanner1.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter game time:");
time = scanner1.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter ticket price:");
price = scanner1.nextDouble();
scanner1.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter opponent:");
opponent = scanner1.nextLine();
game1 = new game(date, venue, time, price, opponent);
teamSchedLL.add(game1);
System.out.println(teamSchedLL);
System.out.println("Game created, returning to main menu. \n");
start = true;
else if (selector == 2)
//search using date
scanner1.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter the date to search for in the format that it was entered:");
dateIndex = scanner1.nextLine();
if (teamSchedLL.indexOf(dateIndex) == -1)
System.out.println("No matching date found. Returning to main menu.");
start = true;
else
//give user option to remove game if they wish.
System.out.println(teamSchedLL.get(teamSchedLL.indexOf(dateIndex)));

removeYN = scanner1.nextLine();
if (removeYN == "Y" || removeYN == "y")

start = true;
else if (selector == 3)
//search using venue name
scanner1.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter the venue to search for in the format that it was entered:");
venueIndex = scanner1.nextLine();
if (teamSchedLL.indexOf(venueIndex) == -1)
System.out.println("No matching venue found. Returning to main menu.");
start = true;
else
//give user option to remove game
System.out.println(teamSchedLL.get(teamSchedLL.indexOf(venueIndex)));
System.out.println("Would you like to remove this game? Y/N");
removeYN = scanner1.nextLine();
if (removeYN == "Y" || removeYN == "y")
teamSchedLL.remove(teamSchedLL.indexOf(venueIndex));
System.out.println("Scheduled game removed.");
System.out.println("\n Returning to main menu. \n");
start = true;
else if (selector == 4)
//search using opponent name
scanner1.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter the opponent to search for in the format that it was entered:");
opponentIndex = scanner1.nextLine();
if (teamSchedLL.indexOf(opponentIndex) == -1)
System.out.println("No matching opponent found. Returning to main menu.");
start = true;
else
//give user option to remove game
System.out.println(teamSchedLL.get(teamSchedLL.indexOf(opponentIndex)));

System.out.println("\n Returning to main menu. \n");
start = true;
else if (selector == 5)
//display tour info
System.out.println("Tour Schedule:");
System.out.println(teamSchedLL + "\n");
else
System.out.println("Incorrect choice entered. Returning to menu");
System.out.println("");
System.out.println("");
System.out.println("");
and here is the game class:
public class game
private static String gameDate;
private static String gameVenue;
private static String gameTime;
private static double gamePrice;
private static String gameOpponent;
public static String gameString;
//set local variables equal to parameters
public game(String date, String venue, String time, double price, String opponent)
gameDate = date;
gameVenue = venue;
gameTime = time;
gamePrice = price;
gameOpponent = opponent;
//prints out info about the particular game
public String toString()
gameString = "\n --------------------------------------------------------";
gameString += "\n Date: " + gameDate + " | ";
gameString += "Venue: " + gameVenue + " | ";
gameString += "Time: " + gameTime + " | ";
gameString += "Price: " + gamePrice + " | ";
gameString += "Opponent: " + gameOpponent + "\n";
gameString += " --------------------------------------------------------";
return gameString;
}I'm sure the formatting/style and stuff is horrible but if I could just get it to work that would be amazing. Thanks in advance.

wdewindI don't understand your first problem.
Your second problem:
for (Iterator it=teamSchedLL.iterator(); it.hasNext(); ) {
game game = (game)it.next();
// do the comparation here, if this is the game want to be searched, then break;

Help with contacts between iphone and address book
I am learning my way through the syncing activities and will say, as some other have, that it is a bit more complicated than I had hoped. I've had a mac for over 20 years and used the older mac.com, which I would sync with my computer. I did not renew it when I found I wasn't using it for the cost.
I recently got my first iphone and had the contacts moved from my old cell phone by AT&T when I bought it.
I have a lot of contacts in my imac's address book and I do not want to move all of them to my iphone. Some are just historical in case I want to email that person. For my iphone, I just want the contacts I use most often.
So, in address book, I made a new group and named it iphone contacts. In this I have about 20 cnotacts with email addresses.
On my iphone, I have many of these same people listed, but just their phone numbers as I did not send emails from my previous wireless phone.
So my questions are:
is there any way to get the two to combine via syncing? I want to keep the phone numbers in the iphone contacts and combine them with the email addresses that are in my address book on the imac. I would like to avoid having to open them both and do a lengthy copy and paste event But unless there is some way to tell the lists to combine with each other, on the iphone and in the group list I made in address book that I name iphone contacts, than that is what I'll do. But I thought it was worth a query here to see what options I might have.
Thanks for any help you can give me.Bump, I did not get any replies to my query if there was a way to combine my iphone numbers in my cell phone contacts with email addresses in a group list in my imac's address book via syncing, so I am wondering if anyone knows if there is an app that might help me.
Thank you in advance. -
Help with Wish List / Favorites / Shopping (Cart) without the Shopping.
I need to add a "Wish List" / "Favorites" that can be emailed to a Muse site that has already been created. It's like a shopping cart without any need to actually check out and buy anything. Google searches have not produced much help as of yet except for I did find something called simplecart.js that sounded promising because it uses JavaScript and as far as I can tell Muse can use JavaScript. I am still struggling figuring out how to implement simplecart.js but at least it was a start. Would anyone here have any alternative suggestions for me or be able to point me in a different or better direction. I find it funny that is so hard to find something that says click this button to then add this info to this area. I just need to keep a running list of items that can be emailed.
I am using Muse because I am not a coder but any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,

Need Help With Contact Info Before Sync
I just got my first iPhone, I had a treo 700wx before this, and use Outlook 2003 for my contacts. I want to download them to my iPhone but would like to know if I need to make changes to my contact names before I do.
In Outlook and my 700wx the names are list last name first with a comma in between i.e., Doe, John.
When I sync my contacts will the first name end up where it should and the last name where it should, or do I need to change them in Outlook before syncing.
Thanks for any help,You can set Contacts to display and sort them as you prefer:

Hi, I've had contacts on my imac for years. then, about 4 years ago, I got an iphone... I help out for a while ;-)
I back my iphone and ipad up to my imac at home. So once I got my iphone, I created a group called iphone contacts as, at the time, I did not want to have EVERY contact I have on my phone. At the time, I felt like there were ones I'd want to keep at home, wanting to just have my family and friends on my phone. So when I backed up, I had a folder I called iphone contacts and that is what backed up to my phone.
Zip forward what feels like a technological millenium, iCloud is working and I'm using my phone much more than I did in the beginning and for more things.
Now I have much of my data backed up to iCloud, such as contacts, calenders, reminders, safari and notes. I don't have mail via iCloud as I use gmail and it does it for me basically.
So today, I got an address update for one of my contacts. I went into contacts on my iphone and edited it with the new snail mail address. Upon arriving home tonight, I decided to back up my iphone and looked at my contacts first, wanting to make sure the new change was there. It is not. I'm not sure why but in looking at my iphone's contacts, I find I have groups that were created due to previous ways of sorting and tracking data and now, with the cloud, it is just a bit confusing. in my contacts on my imac, I see the following categories and groups
at the very top
ALL Contacts (in blue)
On my Mac (in gray)
All on my mac
iCloud (in gray)
All iCloud
Family
iPhone Contacts
Smart Groups (in gray(
Last Import
And on my iphone I see three groups
All Contacts
Family
iPhone Contacts
It seems that now that I am using iCloud to hold and sync my contacts, the use of groups is truly more about a mail list.. such as family, so if I want to email all my sibs, etc. So can I just delete all the groups and just have one pool of contacts, which I assume would be ALL CONTACTS, correct?
And then, as I see the need, I can create a group and drag the various contacts to that group?
And if I change info in a contact, will it show up in any group in which that contact is a member?
thanks for any help.
MFrom Contacts Help. Type in smart groups:
Use Smart Groups
A Smart Group groups contacts automatically based on criteria you specify. For example, group all the members of your swim club by creating a Smart Group for contacts that have “swim” in the notes field. Then every time you enter “swim” in a contact’s notes field, the contact is added automatically to your swim club Smart Group. Smart Groups can include contacts from any account.
Open Contacts
HideCreate a Smart Group
Choose File > New Smart Group.
Enter a name for the Smart Group.
Specify the conditions.
Use the pop-up menus and entry field to set the conditions. Click Add to specify additional conditions.
If you include a group in a condition (by choosing “Card is member of” or “Card is not member of”), you can’t delete that group until you either change the condition or delete the Smart Group that uses the condition.
Click OK.
HideEdit a Smart Group
Select the group, and then choose Edit > Edit Smart Group.

Help with numbering lists in Indesign CS5.5 for epub file
I am working with a book in Indesign CS5.5 to export it as an epub file. I have been working on formatting the text and I have run into a small problem. Throughout the book there are multiple lists within the texts that need to be numbered. Each list, however, must start over at number 1 and not be continued on from the previous list. The lists are all unrelated and I need them to be completely separate. I used "Type", "Bullets and Numbering", then "Apply Numbering" to begin with. This had each list in the correct order. However, I also created a paragraph style with the correct font, size, indentation, and spacing that must be applied to all the lists before exporting. When I do this, everything keeps its correct formatting except that some of the lists continue their numbering from the previous list. For example, on page 1 I might have a list of four things all formatted correctly and number 1 through 4. On page 3, I have another list, of completely unrelated items. I therefore would like this list to be started over at number 1, but when I apply the paragraph style to it, it starts at 5, picking up where the last list left off. I need to keep these as the assigned paragraph style but it messes up the numbering. If anyone could help me figure out how to keep this from happening I would greatly appreciate it!
If you don't mind cracking open the ePub and editing template.css, then adding rules like:
h2 {
page-break-before: always;
should force each paragraph whose style is mapped to an h2 tag on to a new page. Whether or not it works will depend on how good the ePub reader is at implementing CSS. It seems to work for Digital Editions and also Kindle, if you convert ePub to Kindle format.
This doesn't help at all if you are trying to force sections into separate XHTML files, though.
