How do I have incoming text/phone calls reflect contact name

Inadvertant change of a setting - unsure which - that now does not have incoming text/phone messages reflect contact name if in Address Book.  Only phone number appears. Help restore old setting

Longshot, but try resetting:
Hold both the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.
As for the font size, try Settings > General > Accessibility > Large Text, and change it to the desired size.

  • How do I create a custom sound/vibration profile per app, SMS text, phone, or email contact?

    I have a Verizon iPhone 4s recently upgraded to iOS 7.  I'm an IT engineer who's on call and started a new job last week with a company that doesn't provide company phones like a blackberry.  So now I get tons of company email alerts, text messages, and phone calls both private and for work.  I always have my phone switched to vibrate to filter out the noise of generic emails/texts/phone calls, but I also need to be able to configure specific emails sent from our network monitoring servers, text messages from my teammates and alerting devices, as well as phone calls from our internal tech support to be sent with sound.  Ideally I also need to be able to configure alert options in an "On-call" profile I can switch on so that I can configure alert repeats and the most annoying noise I can find so I don't sleep through network pages..  But I still want to be able to keep the default vibrate for everyone else and everything else.. How do I create a custom sound/vibration profile per app, SMS text, phone, or email contact?  In blackberry's, you can easily create different profiles to switch back/forth and configure each app/text/phone option to either a sound option or vibrate.  iPhone seems to be all vibrate or all sound, with little to no options to mix/match the two..  If Apple ever hopes to truly capture the enterprise market blackberry has, this is the most standard and essential feature on blackberries for IT professionals..  If I have to buy a third-party app for this, so be it.  But I've been searching for hours and found nothing that creates customized sound/vibrate profiles for iPhone like this (minus jailbreaking your phone, but I shouldn't have to jailbreak a $699 "smartphone" for simple sound/vibrate/alert options like this..).

    Yeah Appke wants to be like RIM (Blackberry) who is sinking fast and their devices will be door stops.
    http://www.apple.com under support you can ask at their forum or you can call them. However if you call under ios7 support they may help you for free. But if not they will cost you $$$$
    As far as I can tell with my iphone what you want to do is not possible. There are sites that tell you how  to make different ringtones for the device but your choices to change  sounds for email and text/sms messages are controlled unders sounds in the setting menu.  Again the manual is on your phone and online if you need assistance changing sounds and ringtones.
    Good Luck

  • I upgraded to a 4g and the most recent backup (today) is not showing up.  I went ahead and backed up and found that my texts, phone calls and messages did not backup.

    I upgraded to a 4g and the most recent backup (today) is not showing up.  The most recent backup that showed was 3/3/12.  I went ahead and backed up to that date and found that my texts, phone calls and messages are the part that did not backup. 
    Can anyone tell me 1) why my most recent backup did not show in ITunes, 2) why I could not backup using the Cloud (I tried this way first), 3) how I can get all the phone calls, messages and texts from 3/3/12 until today?  Please help if you can...thanks!

    I found the answer on:
    transferring Txt messages from old phone to new iphone 4
    It worked great!

    No, the feature works at home by going through your iPhone to make the call.
    There are Apps for the iPad which allow this: Skype, etc.

  • How do you capture an answered phone number in contacts ?

    How do you capture an answered phone number in contacts ?

    When you look at your call history in the phone app, you see the number that you want to add, and press on the small right arrow on the right. It will show you a new page where you can simply create a new contact or add it to an existing one.

  • All calls received come in as "unknown" with no phone number or contact name from my address book?

    It was a caller id feature accidentally turned off when I I changed my account when returning to the US

  • Unable to send or recieve texts/phone calls

    my mom and I both have the iphone 4 and neither one of us are able to send or recieve messages or phone calls, the texts works very spuratically but this is extremely annoying! I need my phone for work reasons and if I am not able to recieve the calls how am I supposed to know if I am being called into work or not?! The techs keep telling us that it has to be the phone but with it being two different phones, how is that possible? Are we the only ones have this problem or is there a network outage somewhere here in Colorado that is affecting us? This needs to get fixed ASAP seeing as how I also had an emergency last night and could not place a call!

    Southern California. Texts working OK, but no calls in or out.  The cell phones all get "unable to complete"; when calling them from landlines there's either a fast busy or "not in service or disconnected." We don't use data so don't know about that.
    The news said there was a big outage of data, both 3G and 4G, in many places across the country today, but that it was largely fixed by 2:30pm ET.
    Probably overload from the RNC.

  • How do I stop the harrassing phone calls?

    I have previously posted about the deceitful communication I received from Comcast regarding the need to update my modem.  I finally received an intelligent answer about the issues, so thank you for that Comcast.  HOWEVER, I continue to receive robocalls at least weekly, telling me to replace my modem, and timed to wake my family up when we need to be sleeping.  Message received about the modem, you can stop now.  I've updated my account preferences to indicate that I don't wish to receive any promotional communications, but that hasn't stopped them.  I called and spoke to a customer service rep and she said the only way I could stop the phone calls was to joint the national "Do Not Call" list.  Seriously?  You're my phone company, not sleezy telemarketers (I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt on this).  When I ask you to stop bothering me about this, you need to stop.  To be as clear as I can, the only communication I want from Comcast is to tell me about real-time service disruption issues, and to let me know my bill is ready to be paid.  Stop the rest, or tell me how to do that on your website.  

    You need to take my word for it that Comcast has erred way beyond the line of overcommunication.  I've discussed the modem issue fully with your representatives, and I understand the problem.  I choose not to replace my modem at this time.  I don't need a phone call every week for months to tell me about my modem.  When I have repeatedly asked to stop receiving communication on this issue, Comcast is not being helpful, it is being arrogant and harrassing.  With regard to the timing of the calls, you are correct that they are occuring during those hours.  However, those are the hours when my family is sleeping.  Again, since I've asked to stop receiving phone calls, and I'm fully capable of determining what information I need to receive, your opinion that its okay to harrass me, as long as you do so during the day is ignorant and arrogant.      

  • Anyone else have problems receiving phone calls?

    My phone is a Chicago area code I received from Sprint in 2000.  When I moved to the NYC area in 2006 I stayed with Sprint.  Then in 2012, I switched to Verizon because I was no longer in a Sprint 4G area and didn't want to pay for 4G if I wasn't getting it.  It is important to note that I NEVER had a problem with Sprint voice.  My number was ported over to Verizon...and that's when the problems began:
    1.  I get phone calls (~60% of the time from my Chicago area code) and can't answer them (I see them ringing through but can't pick up).
    2.  I get voice mails magically appearing with no notice of a missed call.
    3.  I sometimes don't even get voice mails or notices of missed calls (my grandmother thought I was ignoring her!)
    The issues happen everywhere - at work, at home, in other areas of the country - it doesn't matter.  Verizon has replaced my phone 3 times, my SIM card 2 or 3 times - it's clearly NOT the phone.  I do NOT want to change my phone number - I move so much it's the only number folks know!
    I had a trouble ticket put in with the technical service folks over a month ago...and still no resolution because everyone I speak to over there has a different understanding of what the problem is - and they don't communicate with each other. 
    I am incredibly frustrated and angry with my service and am ready to switch back to Sprint...but I don't want to because I'm in love with their data service.
    Has anyone else encountered these issues at all?  And if so, what have you had done about it?
    Sharon

    Sheritah,
    Thank you for reaching out!!!
    I've copied your questions into my reply and have answered each question individually.
    Have you reached to our technical support team about your concerns with the network ticket?
    Yes, I did reach out but was given the blow-off.  I was told they'd reopen the trouble ticket, but I haven't heard from them since, even after emailing the guy who told me I'd be his contact.
    What exact issue are you having?
    1.  People call me and I can't answer the phone.  I swipe the screen (as is normal) but the call is automatically dropped.
    2.  People call me and the phone doesn't ring or show any indication that there is an incoming call - but I get the "missed call" notification after the person has hung up or left a voice mail.
    3.  People call me, the phone doesn't ring and there is no "missed call" - but I get I voice mail.
    4.  Sometimes voice mails arrive days later.
    Where are you located?
    I reside in 08872 and work in 08807, but the problem is not limited to these two zip codes and will become incredibly angry if the suggestion is made otherwise...I am a broken record, incredibly frustrated and no one wants to believe what I say as the truth.  The last time I dealt with the guys on the end of the trouble ticket they INSISTED that I only have these problems at home and work...that's just ********. (sorry for the bad language )
    Here are some places this has occurred on more than one occasion:
    1.  08872 - current home (NJ)
    2.  08807 - current work (NJ)
    3.  07601 - friend's home (NJ)
    4.  07050 - previous home (NJ)
    5.  11572 - husband's home (NY)
    6.  11422 - husband's work (NY)
    7.  60091 - parent's home (IL)
    8.  94568 - work trip location (CA)
    In terms of frequency, it happens at least once per week.
    I never had these problems with Sprint - I was with them for 10 years.  I switch to Verizon because of the great data (and it IS great data) and then suddenly I have all these voice issues.  You should know I am not a technophobe and I certainly know when the volume is up/down or when the phone is powered on/off.  I've been using smartphones for 10 years.
    Please help.

  • How can I have popup text when user types something wrong?

    I have some textarea and textfields created dynamically. I have set of rules in a text file. How can I have these rules popup when users make mistakes(e.g., forgets to capitalize the name)?
    Please provide your input.
    Thx.

    From your addendum I'm guessing you are wanting to do this with a JSP or servlet. If so Ali's suggestion won't work becuase he's working with Swing components. It is always helpful if you specify the technology you're using: JDeveloper is a tool for writing many different types of Java programs.
    If you want to produce pop-up windows in JSP then you have to use JavaScript.
    If you're using DataWebBeans and want to use JavaScript you have to change (ie subclass) the WebBeans so that they have HTMLFieldRenderers that allow you to attach Javacript to a TextField (or whatever). This is not a small job but is worth it for the flexibility you'll gain.
    If you're using datatags I should imagine it's easier because you can add JavaScript functionality directly to the HTML input fields e.g. in the Input page, but I imagine you'll still have to subclass your own datatags to do the same for the Update pages.
