HT204150 Contacts only show phone numbers, no names?!
My wife's iPhone 4S has suddenly lost its info. All contacts are just phone numbers, no photo stream etc., as if it's lost icloud back up , even it's never been backed up. I've rebooted it (off/on) and no difference.
I've had this happened to my iPhone 5 last year, but not sure what I did and I back mine up every night over wifi.
plug the phone back into itunes and sync the phone.

How I transfer my contact names from my Iphone 4S to my Ipad Air ( only showing phone numbers but no names ) If I receive a message in my Ipad Air, just the phone number is available, I want to find out if possible to get the name of the contact also ?
Go to Settings>iCloud on your phone, make sure you are signed into the iCloud account that contains your contacts, the turn Contacts to On. When prompted, choose merge.

My iPhone 4S has replaced the names of my contacts in text messages and under my favorites- only their phone number shows. I updated today but this actually happened beforehand. I have tried restating the phone, and also *228. Neither have worked. Can someone help me??
My wife is having the same problems as a reciever. She works in a school as a teaching assistant and her teacher sends messages that are mixed with previous texts from ages ago.
Can anyone shed some light on this problem or is it only her and this poster?

why is Messages now showing phone numbers instead of contact names. any ideas?
Check to see if you have contacts in your Contacts app. This is something that can happen sometimes, and is usually cured by resetting the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. No data will be lost.

Why has my messaging changed to showing phone numbers now instead of name of contact? How do I change back to the way it was?
Does it only happen on numbers that don't have a country code?
Did you change your region settings?
If so, that may be why.
Put the missing country codes or check your region to match your current area. -
My deleted contacts still show up when I want to send a text message. But when I go to my address book there not there only when I want to send a text MSG there name comes up and if I select them it only show there number not name in the message. How an I get rid of that
Try this...
have a text convo with the person you want to delete. Go to the top contact in the text convo, hit edit contact, and delete that contact.
That resolution came from another thread on this issue, and this did solve to poster's issue. -

Lync 2013 Showing Phone Numbers which have been removed from AD
My Server is Lync 2013, Exchange is 2010 SP3. I'm also running 2012 Domain Controllers. The Lync 2013 install is migrated from 2010.
I have a myriad of users who have moved departments and thus have a new, or altered phone number, but for some reason the contact cards in all of my Lync 2010/2013 clients and Outlook 2010/2013 are showing phone numbers that no longer exist in Active
Directory.
If the Lync client is closed the Outlook Contact card does not show these "phantom" numbers:
But if the client is open the contact card has a number that doesn't exist in any field in Active Directory (I checked twice):
Suggestions? I have many users displaying phantom numbers in Contact Cards. My normalization rules are working correctly (no errors), and synchronization seems to be working as expected. I have also run debug-csaddressbookreplication with verifyreplication
on a problem user and it succeeds. I've also double-checked the attribute values and this phantom phone number does not exist.
Is it possible that the 2010 Contacts migrated from the old server contain these phantom entries, is there a way to clear this information out and start fresh if need be?
Thanks Kindly!I actually found a bit of a solution without going to MS for support.
I haven't done this for all users yet, but I tested this solution on two users last week.
I removed the problem users from the Lync pool via the Lync console.
I then ran update-csaddressbook and waited the requisite time for a full address book sync to complete.
I then added the user back into the pool and ran another update-csaddressbook.
The contact details were refreshed and updated correctly. It appears that this was the only way to force-remove the legacy address and phone number information from the problem users I tested on as the problem users were added back in as a "new" user.
Hopefully this solution works for you too. -
How to get i cloud to show phone numbers and not emails
how to get i cloud to show phone numbers and not emails
In the contacts app the information is as you have entered it. You can include the added information you want for the contacts. Open a contact and tap edit and add the information you want there and then tap done. It soulds to me like Facebook friends who have email addresses only have been merged into your contacts

Outlook 2010 contacts not showing phone number in Lync 2013 client
Hi,
We have Lync 2013 with Exchange 2010. Recently we started upgrading Lync clients from 2010 to 2013.
A few users started reporting that their local Outlook contacts does not show phone numbers in Lync 2013 (working with 2010)
I have installed the august patch which should solve this issue
981751 - Lync 2013 does not display telephone number of an Outlook 2010 contact in the contact card
Any idea where to look next?Hi Tobias Borgen Nielsen,
Lync expects all the phone numbers to be in the E.164 format, meaning they should be +1-111-11111111 etc. If they’re not like this, you will have to normalize them if you want Lync
to publish them.

Contact issue w/ phone numbers
I have a user that is syncing her iPhone with her Enterprise Exchange account (Exchange Server 2010). For some reason some of her contacts are missing phone numbers. They show up in her Outlook 2010 just fine but not on her phone. She can manually input the numbers on the phone but this becomes a pain when she sync's several thousand contacts.
Any ideas/help as to why this is happening would be great. Thanks.Hi,
yes, I have a contact with several phone numbers (home, office, mobile...) .
When I want to call him,
I select the entry from the contacts list and
press e.g. the green dialing button.
Now I would expect that the 3 numbers of the contact will be displayed and I have to select one of them.
But the phone starts dialing with the first number from the contact.
I found a way to select the right number:
Select the entry
press "options"
press "show details"
select the right number
press the green button
But if this is the way to handle it, it is not very user friendly.
Thanks for a reply.

How do I get pictures of my contacts to show next to their name in my messages.
How do I get pictures of my contacts to show next to their name in my messages app?
Are your photos burst shots? And the missing photos part of a burst? Only one of a burst will be uploaded to the photo stream.
See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
Are all of the photos taken with burst mode or image stabilization on my iPhone 5s saved to My Photo Stream?
No. Only the final photos that you select when using burst mode, and only the final composite image shot with image stabilization are added to My Photo Stream. Learn more about burst mode and image stabilization. -

Please help me. I've just lost my iphone so I related to my backup contacts on icloud to get my contacts back. But my contacts only show at the first time and then they dissappeared, my contacts was empty. How can I see my contacts?
If they aren't on icloud.com they are no longer in iCloud. If you don't have another backup, I'm afraid they're gone.
