How do I add the names of my contacts to my text messages?

I can send and receive text messages just fine.  My contact list is intact.  When I receive a text there is no contact information with the text.  How do I get names to appear with the message?

Hello there, harley57078.
The following Knowledge Base article provides some great steps that help when an application isn't functioning as expected or quits unexpectedly.
With the "Restart" step, make sure you go through and close all applications that are running. If after performing the "Restart" step, you find the issue persists, try the reset portion of the instructions:
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open

If the issue continues unresolved, you may want to follow these instructions:
Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

    Right-click the track in your library, Get Info, go to the Info tab, and type in the correct information.  When you are done, click "OK."

  • How do I change the color of my speech bubbles in text messaging?

    OK community members.....am I crazy or wasn't there a way to change the color of the speech bubbles in Messages?  I just went from a 3gs to a new 4s and I can't seem to find where that can be done or even if it can be done.  I was thinking I was able to do it on my 3gs.  Thanks!!

    Speech bubble colour cannot be changed.  SMS is green and iMessage is blue and that's it I'm afraid.

    You don't have to disconnect your iPhone from iMessage to get text messages on your phone. Other people can use your phone number to reach you with texts.

  • Itunes wi-fi sync; how do I add a name for my new computer on the ipad 4?

    RE: itunes wi-fi sync;

    You cannot add a name for Mac on the iPad. I assume that you mean in the WiFi sync setting - not possible.

  • How do I add my name to the camera data file in meta data?

    When reviewing the meta data on my photos I see the camera model number, serial number, focal length, etc.  The camera owner field is blank.  How do I add my name to the camera owner field?
    I'm using Photoshop CC, on a windows 8.1 Pro platform.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Caitlin

    I did add all the info on the menu section you mentioned above.  Unfortunately it does not show up as "Owner" when you view the data file in Photoshop CC for some reason. Copyright info shows properly, but not camera owner.  It's not a big problem anyway, just a pride of ownership thingy .  I downloaded the GeoSetter program, and after reviewing the meta data contained there I don't see an option for "owner" there either.  Perhaps its something that Adobe plans to implement someday, who knows. Thanks for your suggestions everyone.
    This is my first DSLR, all I have shot in the past have been film cameras and we didn't have any of this fancy info available unless we wrote it down somewhere, smile.  I was still using my old Nikomat that I purchased in 1972 when I was stationed in Japan. I was a bit stubborn when it came to switching to DSLR sorry I waited so long now.
    Oh, Trevor, sorry to learn you may be using something other than Nikon, I didn't know there was another brand other than Nikon!

  • How can I add the controller name in the subject of Alarm emails? PI2.1

    How can I add the controller name in the Alarm emails in PI2.1?  This would make it much easier to scan the mailbox and see what devices are affected.

    Thanx for your reply. No, although helpful, that's not what I meant. In outlook, the first line of the header contains the full username follow by a horizontal line. Under that, the default headers like To:, From:, Subject: etc follow.
    I need that firstline printed so we know instantly from which user the email was printed (the To: field often is the same name of the sender of the mail, therefor you won't know WHO printed it...).

  • Aperture adds the same name to all new locations, how do I delete the name but not the address?

    Aperture adds the same name to all new locations, how do I delete the name but not the address?

    It's easy to rename each unit.  When you connect your iPad and it syncs, the unit will appear on the left of the iTUnes screens just click on the unit there and you can rename it.  You should do this immediately so you can see which unit was backed up by it's name. You can sync as many decices as you want in one iTunes library and you can even share Apps as long as you're going to sync both from teh same iTunes account.  My household has 2 iPad 2s and we share our apps, and we also share downloaded books, magazines, music, etc.......

  • How do I add the customer's name to Workflow Notification email subject line?

    How do I add the customer's name to Workflow Notification email subject line?
    I'm expecting that I need to add a tag, but I'm not sure what the correct tag would be, I have tried a few but it just writes the tag I inserted and not the customer's name.
    Thanks

    This is something you can not add at the moment. You can change the layout a bit of workflow notifications from the system but you can not change the subjects at this time to render a system tag like that.

  • How do you add the files name to images within a PDF

    I have been searching the web trying to find an answer to this question, I am not sure what the proper term is called, but I refer to it as a 'coded pdf'. Hopefully someone knows what I am talking about and can help me find an answer!
    The end product is a coded PDF that has the file name of all the images lableled on top the image. For example, a product brochure that has 500 images, all of them would be 'coded' with their file name, to find easy in source files. - Is this an export option in InDesign, or an option somewhere in Acrobat?
    Thank you in advance for any help.
    -Melissa

    No, Melissa's asking for a filename that's searchable - text made of pixels is no use.
    Acrobat cannot apply the original image filenames after the PDF has been created as it can't read the information from anywhere. You have two options, both in InDesign:
    use smart captions to add the name of the file in a visible format beside each image.
    use accessibility tagging and place the image filename in the ALT TEXT field, then export the PDF with tags enabled (the filename will not be visible on the page but will show if you hover your mouse over the image).
