HT1430 I am getting duplicate contact entries of the same person, sometimes up to 10 duplicates. How do I control this?

How can I prevent myiPad contact app from collecting duplicate entries?

once you finalize the addressing the list disappears, so how can is affect the subject . For that matter is disappears when it looses focus.
I have heard of a bug that selects the name that is highlighted when the mouse leaves the selection box if no address is selected. Perhaps that is your issue. Until the issue is fixed I suggest you use tab to leave the address box

  • Outlook-2 different entries for the same person (but not the same email)

    i was asked to switch from outlook 2007 to outlook 2013 as a trial.
    For some reason, I get two different entries for the same person (but not the same email), one which is the name as normal and one where the name has ' around it. In the below example:
    I have 24 emails sent to Ciaran and then a further 14 sent to 'Ciaran'
    The email address for both is exactly the same and it does not seem to matter if I create a new email or reply to an incoming one.
    I switched back to Outlook 2007 and the issue is still the same.
    any suggestions?

    I would say that there is no way to prevent Outlook from doing it, it dependents on how the sender formatted the sending address, not the recipient who replies.
    To fix this:
    Open the message and double click the address and view source
    Just replace the generated Display As with the Display As you want

  • Why am I getting two different conversations when the same person txts me and sends me an I message? I thought they should be in the same conversation?

    Why am I getting two different conversations when the same person txts me and sends me an I message? I thought they should be in the same conversation?

    I'm experiencing something similar. My conversations are kept together but if the screen is opened to a conversation and I receive a text from that person it doesn't show up on the screen. The message alert in the upper corner indicates a new text but I have to back out of the screen and go back in to read it.

  • I recieved a scam email from apple. then sent me the same email using my own email account. how do I report this to apple. can't find any contact details.

    hi over the past month have received maybe 5 scam emails from apple.
    I opened one the other day cause I thought well maybe it is from apple.
    went through the steps and it was  amazed at how well they did at copying apple website. you could even go to the apple shop page from their page!
    what set me off that it was fake was that I tried to open the other apple pages along the top and it wouldn't let me. so I opened my own apple page and logged in. and realised that they don't ask for your bank details in your Apple ID account.
    anyways so now what has happened is I got an email today " from myself" with this same scam email. it is as if they have hacked my email account and sending me these emails. I want to report this to apple but am unable to find any contact details apart from call back options. does any one have any advice on this.

    I've had that same exact issue, I received the first e-mail claiming to be from Apple last night (though over the past week I've received two other scam e-mails from different addresses claiming that my bank transactions have been aborted). It said it was from my own address, and I checked it closely to make sure it wasn't a spoof account but found it was indeed my own e-mail address. Five minutes ago I changed my password, and I have just now received a second e-mail exactly the same, still coming from my own account. My best guess at an explanation is that it may have been sent before I changed my password and there was just a delay in the message sending, resulting in it coming through after changing my password.
    I've now forwarded the e-mail on as an attachment to the [email protected] address, however this still doesn't help me with regards to stopping these e-mails. It concerns me that even though I changed my password they still possibly have access to my account. I tried checking my account activity but as opening the mail app on my iPhone is considered as a log in and I check it almost twice an hour, it's impossible to tell which could possible be an intruder logging in.

  • Duplicate entries for the same person

    Using the facial squares in my organizer, I identified and entered all the people from my images into the people category.  Upon completion I  realized that I had two Marys (not her real name).  How can I remove one of these and reenter them under the other entry for Mary?

  • Fixing duplicate database entries for the same audio file

    My iTunes Media folder is stored on a network accessible storage server. Since upgrading to 11.1.x, my computer seems to be duplicating database entries for the same audio files - for some albums, I have 4 entries for every song, each one pointing to the exact same file. The only difference between entries is rating info and play counts, which are specific to a particular entry (I think). Has anyone else seen this behavior? Is there an obvious way to stop this from happening? I can delete and rebuild the database from media files, but that starts getting old if I have to do it every week or so. Is there a script to delete duplicate database entries? (I found a VB script on the iTunes for Windows community, but the offending machine is a Mac).
    Thank you for any assistance!

    I have a new iPad. I am using Comcast as my email provider but when I send a message, it pulls up the facebook email addresses for my  contacts  instead of the addresses stored in my comcast account.  How can I get rid of the Facebook email addresses? The comcast addresses are stored in the comcast (xfinity) app.  I do not use the "mail" or "contacts" apps ....I go straight to comcast (xfinity).  I wish I could start over!!!  thanks.
    iPad

    I could be wrong, but it sounds like Facebook imported to your contacts.  I have the Xfinity app on my new ipad, too, but none of my stored contacts from the online version are showing, only what I manually entered into the iPads contacts are there.  When I did add the FB app, I did not grant it permission to push and pull from my ipad (not a fan of FB knowing every detail about me), so that may be where our difference lies.  You could try to open the app and change your privacy settings, or delete it and then reinstall without granting permissions to integrate.
    I'm sure someone here with a lot more knowledge then me can probably diagnose your issue better, though.  Good luck!

  • Web Matrix FTP Remote Connection Error - "Connection Error - Failure to get file list from server. An entry with the same key already exists."

    Does anyone have experience with this issue when connecting to a Linux FTP Web Server running a FTP Site?
    "Connection Error - Failure to get file list from server. An entry with the same key already exists."
    I cannot access the root directory of the ftp file server using Web Matrix 3. The site is .php based, and
    is accessible when connecting with FileZilla or Remote Connecting via FTP with Visual Studio.
    All sites have been deleted from Web Matrix, the user Application Data has been cleared and Web Matrix has been reinstalled.
    Issue Persists....
    Thanks in advance,
    Justin

    Turns out that the program leaves metadata in your app data folder that is not removed upon uninstallation of the software.
    This is incorporated to communicate with a file that uploaded into the ftp directory when publishing pages.

    I am trying to sync contacts from my iPhone to Mac.  When I plug in my iPhone, I do not get the Info tab in iTunes (as mentioned in how to sync on this website).  How can I get the info tab to appear?

    Since the release of Mavericks (OS X 10.9) syncing contacts and calendars with a Mac via iTunes is no longer supported. The currently supported method is via iCloud. Setup instructions: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/

  • Mail 4.  Searching email I get up to 3 entries of the same email

    In the search function for emails I get up to 3 times the same email in the email directory.
    Definitely this email is only once in that email directory.
    How can I change that?

    try rebuilding that mailbox using mailbox menu->rebuild. if that does not help reindex your Mail folder with spotlight. add your home folder to spotlight's privacy pane in system preferences for a few seconds and then remove it from there. try searching again.

  • Multiple entries of the same topic in calendar

    Hi, i am having trouble with my calendar, as in it displays multiple entries of 1 entry on the same day! eg. if i have one entry then it displays that same entry about 15-20 times on that same day in a list!!! can anyone help with this fault?

    I'm having same problem but where there are duplicate calendar entries, one of the entries cannot be changed (doesn't have edit button)and the other entry can be changed. Needed to reschedule a doctor's appointment and wasn't able to delete b/c there isn't an edit button. So it stays there. Don't know which date is the new rescheduled date. I have iPhone 3g. Since iPhone4 my 3g is extremely slow too.

  • HT3702 why did i get charged three times for the same purchase? is it because i use my apple id on three devices.. two iphones, and ipad... and and macbook geez apple i support you enough can i just pay for one copy of the audiobook

    These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here.
    If it was an audiobook then they are one-time only downloads, to get it on your other devices you need to sync it to them and not re-download it oneach. You can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will refund or credit you for the second and third downloads : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
