I have items in my contacts that are randomly disappearing.  I need to find them.

I have been recently been loosing items from my contacts.  Ironically, it seems that things just go away.  In the last month i have had a problemrn with being able to add to my calendar too.  I type something, but it didn't stick.  When I called support, they thought it was because I had low memory on the ipad.  Then the ability has come back, but te appointment is purple.  The recently they have turned to dark gold.  I havent changed anything on the ipad.

I created a dummy contact in iPhones and tried to sync it with iCloud.
I now get an error message on my iPhone which says, "iCloud Backup Failed: Turn off Airplane Mode or use Wi-Fi to enable iCloud Backup".
The Airplane Mode is already off, and I am right now connected via Wi-Fi.
Why do you think I am getting that error message?
Thanks.

  • I am using iCloud email and my emails are randomly disappearing before I can read them. They are not in any folders on my iPhone and I am having to call apple to have the last 7 days of email sent to me in order to retrieve what is being lost.

    I am using an apple email account and my emails are randomly disappearing before I get a chance to read them. They are not anywhere on my device, not trash, junk etc. The only solution from apple has been to resend me the past 7 days of email in order for me to retrieve the missing emails. This has taken me hours on the phone with apple support with no solution. I just don't know what to do. They have gone over the settings with me and nothing has solved the problem. I don't know where to start since it is happening on all my devices.

    Control-click on the background of the view all pages window and select "Preview Calendar" from the contextual menu.
    You can also save the pdf as a file to compare to the printed calendar.  If the two names are visible in the pdf file then the printed copy should show them.  Contact Apple for a refund.  Apple Print Products - Apple Store (U.S.)

  • Pictures and facebook accounts are showing in my contacts that are not mine. how do i delete them

    In my contacts I am having random Facebook accounts and their facebook pictures added on my contacts. I do not know these people. Why did they show up and how do i remove them?

    There might be a slight glitch in the Facebook program and the setting which you are using to link your contacts. To fix this, I reccomend reinstalling Facebook, or if you go in your contact which you do not want, is there not a button at the bottom saying 'Delete Contact'? If non of these options work, try a reset in iTunes.

  • HT204150 I currently have 14,181 contacts that are on my computer, which an apple tech was nice enough to show me how to transfer all my contacts  from my mac 2 "iCloud " account all though when ever I log into my "iCloud" account it still only shows 13,0

    I currently have 14,181 contacts that are on my computer, which an apple tech was nice enough to show me how to transfer all my contacts  from my mac 2 "iCloud " account all though when ever I log into my "iCloud" account from a different web browser it still only shows 13,032. Meanwhile on my mac book pro, the "icloud" contact is still spinning like its trying to update the rest of the missing contacts. I have let the computer run for 2 days straight and still no progress. Is there a limit to how many contacts I store on "iCloud" I have upgraded to the extra 25 gigs per year. If anyone has any advice I would greatly appreciate it, because its also slowing down my mac book pro significantly causing it hard to do any other task on my computer....Any advice or help would be again greatly appreciated.

    On the surface, it doesn't sound like you're reaching a limit in the number of contacts you can have.
    I would first create a contacts archive (file >> export) for a backup.  Then, go to system preferences >> icloud and uncheck contacts.  Reboot.  Return to those preferences and recheck contacts.
    Also, review http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4489 just in case you have some contact cards that are reaching a different limitation.

    Did you recently deauthorize a bunch of computers?  You can only deauthorize all once  year.

  • Method needed to identify Contacts that are not valid from the Comp Screen

    Problem
    My Company has 65k contacts in the system, we do not delete contacts that are no longer at company, as when we buy data our data in some cases will be more up to date that the third party data available on the market. This then means when a user looks at a company record and the related contacts, he has to hover the cusor over each of the contacts to check if they are valid or not.
    Goal
    When a user looks at the contacts linked to the company the following fields will be presnt:
    Contact Valid
    Contact Leave Date.
    This will then mean the user will be able to see without looking which contacts are valid and which are not.
    Problems
    I have tried to create a contact page layout with the fields needed however the only fields avaiable are as follows:
    Company ID
    Company Name
    Company Status
    Contact ID
    Contact Name
    Contact Roles
    Location
    Primary
    Can anybody help?

    Thanks for the reply.
    However I think I didn't make myself clear in my post in terms of the problem. The problem I have is that when a user looks at a company (account) record the user see the following information in relation to which of the available contacts to select "Primary,Last & First name,Job Title, Contact Role, Work Phone and Email". However none of these fields show if the contact is valid or if they have a leave date.
    Both Contact Valid and Contact Leave date have been set up in the system within the contact record. I want to change the layout and have spent hours in the following screens and functions.
    Page layout Management
    Company/Contact Related Information layout
    Related Information Setup
    Company/Contact page layout
    The problem is the screens/functions where I think I could add the two above mentioned fields end up with me turning the fileds into required or read only fields, and the section where I want to drag in the fields to display has the two fields missing.

  • I have several songs that I purchased. They show in my library, but won't play on any of my devices - including my computer. I keep getting the "authorize the computer" prompt. My computer is authorized! I have done all the troubleshoots that are availabl

    I have several songs that I purchased. They show in my library, but won't play on any of my devices - including my computer. I keep getting the "authorize the computer" prompt. My computer is authorized! I have done all the troubleshoots that are available. How do I get my computer and other devices to be able to play these songs? Almost all  my songs play except for about 8 or 9.

    If only some of the songs on an album are giving you the authorisation message, that suggests those song files are damaged.
    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • Z30 Does not save contacts that are added

    I just recently upgraded from a 9900 to a Z30 and am running the 10.2.0.429 OS. I have tried numorous times to add contacts by going into my contacts, hitting Add (at the bottom), filling out the necessary contact information and then hitting save at the top right hand corner. However, the phone does not seem to save any contacts I enter as when I go to search them, they are not there. The only contacts that are currently appearing in my contacts are my BBM contacts which migrated from my 9900.
    Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

    The phone is trying to be smart but sometimes it overthinks things.
    If this is the case just go to the contact, click on links(x) and then click on unlink next to the one you want as a seperate contact.
    If you've been helped click on , if you've been saved buy the app.

  • How do I delete items from menu bar  that are not part of the OS

    How do I delete items from menu bar  that are not part of the OS

    Perhaps you could be more specific, as it is a little difficult to answer your question without any details.  I can give you some general ideas though.
    On my machine there are a few applications that have installed items into the menu bar - I'm assuming you are talking about the icons on the right hand side of the top bar. To remove those items, I would generally need to uninstall the program that created them. To do this varies a little from application to application.
    Also, sometimes an application will have preferences that allow you choose if you want to display the item in the menu bar.
    So, my general advice would be that you need to identify the application that placed the item there, and remove it from your computer.  If there is an uninstall program for that application, I would run that in the first instance.
    If you don't actually wish to uninstall the application, you may need to click on the item or run the application and see if there is a setting to not show the menu bar item.
    Hope that helps.

  • I want to pull my iCloud contacts into outlook.  If I turn on iCloud on my PC will I loose the contacts that are in iCloud?

    I already have some contacts in Outlook on my PC.  I want to pull my iCloud contacts into outlook.  If I turn on iCloud on my PC will I lose the contacts that are in iCloud (replacing them with the Outlook contacts)?

    Do you not have a backup of your contacts? in case things go wrong?

  • When I open up my emails and close them, they disappear and I cannot find them.  Where are they going?  Is there a setting that I have to change?

    Once I open up my emails they disappear and I cannot find them anymore.  Is there a setting that I need to change to stop this from happening?

    Are you tapping any of the icons at the of the Mail app after opening them, or do they disappear without you doing anything ? And if you have more than one account on the iPad, does it happen on your other accounts as well ?

        That's pretty strange, runjudy. Are you looking at the time on the weather application or on the top right corner of your phone? If you reboot the phones, do the times sync up?
