How can I make local calls without using a country code when it's in my Contacts?

The phone numbers in my Contacts all contain country codes because I do a lot of travelling.
An example of this might be:
+1 (229) 123-4567
+44 (0)12 345 6789
+31 (0)10 2345 6789
I have an unlocked phone so when I travel, I usually pick up a local SIM and use that to make calls.
The problem I have is that when I am abroad and select a phone number from my contact list it doesn' work. For example, if I select a contact with the number:
+31 (0)10 2345 6789
A voice-recording comes on saying that the number I had dialed was incorrect.
But when I dial the number manually:
010 2345 6789
It works.
In the US I do not have this problem because for some reason, the phone knows whether the +1 is needed or not. I'm sure if it uses it at all when you're in the US. When I dial internationally from within the US, the number dialing works fine.
So this problem only occurs when I'm dialing locally in the country I'm in while travelling outside the US.
Anyone have any idea of why this is happening and more importantly, what I need to do to fix this? I would hate to have go and change all my contact numbers and get rid of the country codes. If I ever have to call those numbers internationally, I'll need to manually add the country code back in.
Very annoying!
Advice anyone?

If you include a country number, you have to drop the initial 0 from the area code. eg +31 10 2345 6789 instead of +31 (0)10 2345 6789

  • HT5085 so one song can be only up to 200mb , most of my music consists of continuous mixes that are up to 2 hrs long  I'm assuming none of those would be available on cloud  how can I make them available without using phone memory

    does a two hr continuous mix count as one song and will it even be uploaded to icloud?

    How can I make a call from IPad

    Oh, you have to get the iPhone app.
    Seriously, though .... you are aware that it's not a telephone, right? Any calls you make will be using VOIP and any of the apps and/or services (Skype, Google Talk, etc., etc.) which support that. Some of those are US-only, all have various restrictions and cost structures.

  • How Can I make redirect caller from agent to any branch IVR?

    I have IPCC Enterprise Edition (ICM 5.0, IVR 3.1)
    How can I make redirect caller from agent to chosen branch IVR, and send with call any variable to IVR (e.g. account number).
    Regards
    Krzysztof

    I would suggest that post-routing should not be used. The way to go is to use translation routing applications. Although post-routing is easy to set up, almost all deployments require translation routing. I can't think of anything good to say about post routing, other than it's trivial to configure.
    You want the main route point to be on the CM_PIM.RC for a number of reasons. You can check to see which of your IVRs are on line, and/or to do load balancing. If calls don't need to go to the IVR if agents are ready, you can have an LAA Select node immediately, and then translation route. Even if you just have one IVR, translation routing will enable you to do RONA more easily.
    You need to bite the bullet and learn translation routing. If you do it that way, peripheral variables attached to the call remain unaffected whether the call is under the control of the CM_PIM.RC or the IVR_PIM.RC. This is exactly what you want.
    There is no need, in my opinion, to go to an external database. In your IVR, decisions made by the caller (e.g. which "skill" they want) set peripheral variables. When the call comes out of this script you check the peripheral variable, and depending on the value do a queue to the appropriate skill group and run external script (BasicQ.aef).
    Separate the intelligence gathering IVR script from the Queuing script. Allow ICM to make the routing decisions.

  • I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 thing. But now my iphone's gmail inbox shows a random selection of emails (not most recent ones that are in my inbox). How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

    I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 capabilities. But now my iphone's gmail inbox only shows a random selection of emails (i.e. right now it is May 31, 2013 but the emails in my inbox are a couple from Nov 12, a few from Oct 12, and then some way older than that and so on.When I log into my gmail from a computer, I see all my emails in the logical, standard order. How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

    If you're trying to decide between using POP and IMAP, we encourage you to use IMAP.
    Unlike POP, IMAP offers two-way communication between your web Gmail and your email client. This means when you log in to Gmail using a web browser, actions you perform on email clients and mobile devices (ex: putting mail in a 'work' folder) will instantly and automatically appear in Gmail (ex: it will already have a 'work' label on that email the next time you sign in).
    IMAP also provides a better method to access your mail from multiple devices. If you check your email at work, on your mobile phone, and again at home, IMAP ensures that new mail is accessible from any device at any given time.
    Finally, IMAP offers a more stable experience overall. Whereas POP is prone to losing messages or downloading the same messages multiple times, IMAP avoids this through two-way syncing capabilities between your mail clients and your web Gmail.
    That is from the page that you linked- does highlighted part of message ring a bell?

    I have tried resetting an iPhone 3 and I am unable to activate and sync it. How can I reset the device without using a computer?

    Hello anacc,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Connect your USB cable to your computer but not to the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until step 3.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    While pressing and holding the Home button down, connect the USB cable to the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. The device should turn on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen. When this screen appears, you can release the Home button:
    Note: If the image of a battery appears, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again. If you don't see the Connect to iTunes screen, try these steps 1 through 4 again.
    iTunes should automatically open and display the following message:
    "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."Note: If iTunes not open after two minutes, please open iTunes yourself.
    Use iTunes to restore the device.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • HT2589 how can i create apple id without using credit card details ?

    how can i create apple id without using credit card details ?

    @Limnos - that doesn't work anymore. There is no NONE option. I've been at it for hours trying to set up my daughter's account. I've tried creating and verifying an appleID on the web, on her touch...everything. Every single time you get to the stupid Touch, it wants to walk you through the verification of the account and it demands payment (even for their suggested apple Remote method listed in the KB).

  • How can I make the spry accordion remember the panel open when I refresh the page or jump to a new page?

    How can I make the spry accordion remember the panel open
    when I refresh the page or jump to a new page?
    I am using the accordion feature on all my pages as a
    navigation aid. It has three panels. When you refresh the page the
    panel goes back to the default pane... Is there a way of
    controlling this so that the browser can remember the pane that is
    open (say set a variable, cookie, other?)

    Look for "Set the default open panel" on the following page:
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/articles/accordion_overview/index.html
    Keep in mind you would need to change that bit of code on
    every page. The only way to do it more dynamically would be to
    include a custom javascript or PHP/ASP style script in order to
    change the value.
