How to enter a contact's ext. # without auto-dialing it?

Is there a way to enter the extension for a contact's phone number when the company's phone system doesn't accept automated extension dialing? I used the proper procedure for adding an extension, but the switchboard operator picked up the phone as the extension was being dialed (after a pause), and she said I can't pre-program the extension. She said I have to call the main number and tell the operator the extension I want and then she'll connect me. I tried other methods of entering the extension without the pause technique, but I can't get "contacts" to accept it. Any tips? I just want to be able to list the person's extension next to their phone number for easy reference. Thanks in advance.

Same boat here -- lots of professional contacts who don't have automated extension dialing.
It appears the only solution is to save extension numbers in the Notes section, first line. Depending on how much info you have in the fields above, it may or may not appear without having to scroll down.
Hope that helps.

  • How to enter a material on SO without a Material Master Record?

    Hi guys,
    Pls help me 2 flowing problem:
    1. How to enter a material on SO without a Material Master Record? And all case need to enter a material on SO without a Material Master Record.
    2. How to use customer material number if there isn't Master Data
    Thanks

    Hi Friend,
    I dont think we can go with a sales order with a material without material master record.
    But there are some cases where in we can create a sales order by entering a material which does not have a material master.
    1. Through material determination
    You can create a material determination for a material (1234) which exists in sap by a material(XYZ) which does not; For example in VB11 you can create a material determination for a material 1234 ( exists in sap) through a material XYZ which does not exists in sap.
    While creating the sales order when you enter the material XYZ is not give any error and automatically determine the material 1234 which exists.
    2. Text material
    We can create a order/quote by directly entering a text in the material description and without entering the material. This the case for text material wherein text item category will be determined.
    Please let me know if this help you. Else kindly elaborate the scenario.

  • How To Get A Java Program To Initiate Auto Dial in Windows???

    I have a Java program that opens a connection to a server (another Java program) using sockets and streams. On some windows machines (various versions) with auto dial enabled the connection is made without human intervention. However on some windows machines (even same as others) the autodial doesn't work and all I receive is NoRouteToHostExceptions.
    What I need is some way of initiating the autodial from within Java explicilty rather than assuming that the OS will do it when a request is made to a remote IP address.
    I emplore anyone with some knowledge of this to provide assistance as I am going nuts trying to solve this problems.

    A long time ago I figured out how to create, find, and manipulate items in the DialUp Networking using an InstallShield program. I am sorry I can't remember specifics (I wouldn't have even replied except no one else has either...) but I remember that I did a LOT of hunting on Microsoft's website for how to do this on the various platforms of the day (Win95, Win98, NT4.0).
    I imagine that in order to accomplish this from java, you will probably need to find the system-specific commands (at Microsoft) and exec them from your java program.

  • How do I get rid of + in auto dial messages

    I am in China and purchased a sim card from China Mobile and switched the mobile network on the phone so that I could use in China.  When I call someone from contacts, the phone call gets a wrong number.  I believe it is because of the + that gets placed in front of the number.  When I punch in the phone number the call goes through.  How do I get rid of the + on auto dials?

    Hi michasr,
    This is smart-dialing feature, by which can set a default country code and area code for phone numbers so that you do not have to dial a country code and area code each time that you make a call.
    To Set the default country code and area code:
    From the Home screen, press the Send key.
    Press the Menu key.
    Click Options.
    Click Smart Dialing.
    Set the Country Code and Area Code fields.
    If necessary, set the Local Country Code and International Dialing Digits fields.
    In the National Number Length field, set the default length for phone numbers in your country.
    Press the Menu key.
    Click Save.
    Note: When you calculate the default length for phone numbers, include your area code and local number, but do not include your country code or the National Direct Dialing prefix.

  • How can I see, use and edit contacts on PC without...

    Now I finally worked out how to sync my contacts to my N95 8G (see earlier posts), I would like to use this data, plus the calendar data on a daily basis on my PC and update it where necessary, before finally synching back to the N95 at the end of the day.
    Has anybody any ideas how this can be done ?
    With my old Palm-based system I would use the Palm desktop but the PCSuite (v. 7.0) doesn't seem to offer this functionality.
    Now the contct and calendar data must be copied there on the PC as I've performed a back-up via the Suite, but how do I get to see and edit this data (or a copy thereof) on the PC ?
    If Nokia can't be bothered to work out how to do this, has anybody come across any third party vendors who have ?

    Hi - sorry for the tardy response.
    When I saw that my Palm device was fading rapidly and that it was no longer supported by upgrades to new versions of Windows (a Sony Clie of 2002 vintage that I used for everything bar phone calls), I backed up my palm desktop contacts, calendar etc. to my Yahoo account with no problems.
    My other posts on this forum described my frustration at not being able to simply export a file back out of Yahoo that the N95 would understand, without losing bits of the contacts (e.g. all the telephone numbers). In the end I had to go via Outlook - my other post (copied below) describes how I did it.
    The approach is not perfect and I intend it to be a once only thing. I will still suffer the hassle of entering new contacts into both my N95 and my online address book as the Nokia PC Suite does not appear to accurately read csv files created by Yahoo.
    My poor user experience with N95 will make me think seriously about going back to a Palm-based / Blackberry device when upgrade time comes around again.
    1: Open Outlook and back up the existing contacts (that you wish to keep separate from your N95 contacts) by exporting them to the desktop in a .pst - "outlook.pst"
    2: Once they are backed up to Outlook.pst, select all these contacts in Outlook and delete
    3: In Yahoo, export all contacts to an Outlook format .csv file (note, Yahoo offers different .csv formats) - "Personal.csv"
    4: In Outlook, import the new Personal.csv file you have created. Check contacts. Delete duplicates, and check/update errors (i.e. use Outlook like the PIM that PC Suite ought to be and isn't !).
    5: In Nokia PC Suite, use the Synchronise function to synchronise the N95 with Outlook
    6: Select all personal contacts in Outlook that you just imported via persoanl.csv, delete them to clean out Outlook.
    7: Re-import the Outlook.pst file you originally created above to restore your original (work?) outlook contacts.
    Thanks for taking the time to share "our" frustrations. As you've indicated, after enjoying the ease of managing Palm data both on the device and on the desktop, the Nokia N95 simply falls flat on its face (despite the shopkeeper's assurance it was far and above better). I have found that at least the generic PC Suite has a means to view the calendar and contacts on the desktop provided the phone is hooked up by USB. I still had to manually enter everything onto the phone to get it all as I want it, and have decided to only put the stuff I truly need to have with me at all times. I also tried to download an MP3 program but it won't accept the format (and I thought Sony had the wrap on exclusivity!?). When Nokia or another company comes up with a truly do-it-all-right format, I'll be first in line. Meantime, I will take my Palm on trips, and will tuck the MP3 player in a side pocket. This was an expensive mistake that I won't make again.

  • My old email address was hacked and I am no longer able to access it. How can i reset my icloud ID without losing all of my pictures and more inportantly contacts? I have created a new ID but i cannot seem to use it until I delete the old account

    my old email address was hacked and I am no longer able to access it. How can i reset my icloud ID without losing all of my pictures and more importantly contacts? I have created a new ID but i cannot seem to use it until I delete the old account

    You need to use the old ID and password to delete the iCloud account. After you delete the old account, you can sign in with the new ID in iCloud.
    Have you seen this.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
    iCloud
    iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > iCloud.
    If you signed out before changing your Apple ID, enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download to your device.
    If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID:
    Scroll down and tap Delete Account. Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked to confirm that you want to delete data from your device. To confirm, tap Delete. (If you're using iOS 7 and have Find My iPhone turned on, you'll be asked to enter the password for your previous Apple ID. Enter the password, then tap Turn Off.) The data will be deleted from your device, but not from iCloud.
    Enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download again to your device.

  • How can I reset my iCloud account without deleting all my contacts and photos on my iPhone.

    How can I reset my iCloud account without losing all my photos and contacts on my phone. I just want to clean up my iCloud.

    Not sure what you mean by "reset" your iCloud account, but if you want to clean up other data, just delete it from the apps on your phone that are syncing with iCloud, or from icloud.com.  They will be simultaneously deleted from iCloud and any devices syncing with iCloud.
    Similarly, if you delete photos from your my photo stream album, they will be deleted from your photo steam and any devices connected to your photo stream.  If you want to save them first, open the my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos to select them, tap Edit, tap Save to Camera Roll.

    How do you delete contacts from your phone for good without having it appear in the messages app?

    Hi tieyce,
    You need to hook up your iPhone, select it under Devices, and then go to the Photos tab on the Device Profile, and uncheck Sync Photos, then sync. That should delete all photos that were downloaded from your computer.
