Inbox won't display senders names from Contacts list?

Is there a way to get the iPhone email Inbox to display the sender's name from my Contacts list when the user is on my Contact's list? As it is now, when I go to my Inbox on the iPhone, it shows a list of email addresses instead of the name's of the users, even though they are on my Contacts list. Once I click on a message and view it, then it shows the Contact List user name, but it does not show that data on the Inbox page.
Is this a bug or is there a setting to change this behavior or something else?
Thank you.

Mikeintokyo and C.Moser,
I'm with ya. I wonder if someone somewhere is working on an mail app that can both display names and allow us to use emoticons. Having used emoticons for years with my students, the sudden lack of them has some of them thinking I'm mad at them. Also, when I try to use the heartmark or other symbols available thru the numbers keypad, the email I send is apparently unreadable.

  • Removing name from contact list

    There is a group to which I send a general e mail a few times a month.  I have these contacts listed under a group name, so when I type in the group name under "To" all the names appear.  There is one person who  no longer wants to  receive the group notices, and I have completely removed her name and contact information from my address book, but when I type the group name in my "To" box her name still appears.  She has  a "hotmail" account, as do several other members of my group.  Is there anything else I can do, short of trying to remember to delete her name every time I send an e mail to this group?  

    When you get hold of one of those first line reps on the phone, it depends very much on just who happened to answer the call.  Some of them are very good.  Others not so much.  The only reason I found out about the memory for the To: line is that another poster had asked about it and I contacted Plaxo about it.  There was an exchange of emails and they explained how the thing works.
    Do you see "Forget" to the right of the first 3 o 4 names when that list comes up?  I had no idea what that was for.  It is the automated sorting software that the mail program uses to determine what addresses you use most often when typing in a given letter/word combination into the To: field.  It then ranks them in that order.  If you want it to change you click on Forget and it should remove it from the spot in the list.  At least that's what was explained to me.  But when I first asked them about it they tried to tell me it was something to do with my browser, which it is not.  So I sent them  a screen shot of it and then they said "oh wait----yeah------that thingy", and then gave me the correct information.
    They don't all know all the features of the mail  program or address book.

  • HP Photosmart Plus B210a all-in-one won't display any networks in the list.

    Hi, I recently purchased a HP Photosmart Plus all in one printer and I've been having trouble with it from day one.
    First off, it won't connect wirelessly.
    It won't display any networks in the list when searched for, it won't take my network details when I manually input them and it won't take any static IP address I've tried from other suggestions.
    Secondly, the print quality is very bad. Streaks and fading are occuring and after using up 70% of my ink trying to sort it out through troubleshooting it's still bad.
    It's extremely important for me to be able to have web access using the printer as all members of my household use it and it'll get fustrating having to car laptops and computers around to print.
    Can anybody help at all?

    Top line says "The wireless radio is not functioning. Contact HP support"
    I take this as a very bad sign and needs replacing?
    The tests I done produce streaks, fading and lines. I printed off two photos, one from a memory card and one from a scan. The memory card produced heavy blocked lines of color and the scan was just dull.
    I'm using a Wanadoo Wireless Livebox and Windows 7 64 Bit
    One other question... is this like a brilliant printer for photos mainly? I'm a Graphics design student and although my final prints are made from home I would like accurate and decent printouts for my portfolios. Should I keep this or go for another one with similar features and better print quality?

  • View middle name in contact list, nokia asha 302

    Hello everyone.
    I have a problem. I have a big contact list and there are contacts with middle names. But I can't understand how can I see contact's middle name in my Nokia Asha 302 contact list.
    I saw the same problem here: http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Eseries-and-Communicators/How-to-display-First-Name-Middle-Name-Last... But there's no help answers.
    Does anybody know, is it possible to view middle names in contact list? I don't want to edit all middle names by concatinating first and middle name.

    On certain devices (especially S40 such as the Nokia Asha 302) the 'Middle Name' Field may not be possible. It may not be available under 'Add Details' too ...

  • How to get key name  from parameter list

    hi..
    i want string from parameter list.. i hv already created parameter list like
    ADD_PARAMETER (param_list_id, 'EMPID', TEXT_PARAMETER,'123');
    ADD_PARAMETER (param_list_id, 'EMPNM', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'ABC');
    ADD_PARAMETER (param_list_id, 'EMPADD', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'XXX');
    i got value like '123' ,'ABC', 'XXX' using
    eg. get_parameter_attr(param_list_id,'EMPID',aprmlist,avalue)
    but i want key name like 'EMPID' , 'EMPNM', 'EMPADD' from param_list_id
    is it possible to get this key name from parameter list ???
    Thanks...

    I cannot think of a way to do that. The code that reads the list is supposed to know the key names. That is sort of the point with parameter lists. If you need to have parameter lists that can be interepreted by some code that doesn't know about a specific list but knows how to interpret it by inspecting the key names, perhaps you can specify a separate parameter list with the key names as values and call the keys of that list something generic?

  • How to send a number by SMS from contact list on 2...

    Guys, I cracked my brains to solve how to send a number from contact list by SMS in 2630.
    Maybe there's no such option at all?
    Please help!!!
    Message Edited by berzerk on 16-Dec-2008 09:24 PM

    I don't think there is such an option on a limited phone like the 2630.
    On phones running S60 such as the Nseries and Eseries devices (and a few others) there is an option to copy a number from the contacts into the clipboard and you can subsequently paste it into a new message. Older S40 phones like the 2630 don't have a clipboard facility to do copy/paste actions.

  • Searching Vietnamese Name in Contact List

    Hi,
    I've just used BB10 (10.3.0.x) for Q10) for a week, and I have an issue about Searching Vietnamese Name in Contact List:
    In BBOS, if I wanna search Vietnamese Name (ex: Đoàn), I just type "Doan"
    But in BB10, I must type proper Vietnamese Name (ex: "Đoàn", not "Doan") to get the correct result.
    Could you please show me how to fix this issue ?
    Thanks and Best Regards.

    Update: this issue occurs when Compose SMS, not in Phone or Contact List

  • This past month I have been having problems connecting to my home wireless connection. Previously I had no problems whatsoever. I have tried unplugging the wireless router, turning off the wirless airport, deleting the network name from my list of server

    This past month I have been having problems connecting to my home wireless connection. I have a MacBook Pro OSX Version 10.6.8. Previously I had no problems whatsoever. I have tried unplugging the wireless router, turning off the wirless airport, deleting the network name from my list of servers and trying to reconnect this way. These methods have worked temporarily, but the same problem keeps coming back. Most of the time my personal wireless connection does not even come up among the list of available networks. My fellow flatmates have PCs and both of them are able to connect to the network without problem.
    The router is a d-link model DIR-615. I am not tech savy, so if any other information need to be provided in order to better understand my situation, please let me know.
    Please help me!

    If I open the list of networks in a window it says "connection timeout," but if I just select it from the drop down it tries for awhile and then stops with no prompt. When I try to run network diagnostics it says "sorry, we can't connect to the internet" (or some solution-free variation of that)

  • Nokia C7 Dialing from contact list

    I'm having problem dialing from contact list and recent calls.  I can only makes calls when dialing  the numbers.  I can receive calls.  Texting works fine from contact list and recent calls, but voice call can only be done by dialing the number .Phone has to reboot everytime it happens.

    Hi Remembranze,
    First of all, check via Nokia Suite and on the phone itself for any firmware updates that may be available. IF there is an update, please update to the latest version offered. If there is no update, then try re-installing your current firmware via Nokia Suite. Failing this, try Restoring your phone to factory settings, and if this doesn't work, then you try performing a three finger hard reset. Failing this, you will need to take your phone to your local Nokia Care point for them to inspect.

  • It won't display the names of my contacts when they message me.

    Got a brand new iPhone in the mail, restored it from my old iPhone, and now it's not showing the names of my contacts when they message me even though I have their number in my contacts list. I have tried the add to contacts button but that dosent work either. Please help its a little irritating when someone texts me and I have to ask who it is.

    If you do not see this at the top of the display I would try a reset.
    Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo. It is safe to do, there should be no content loss. It is the same as rebooting your computer.

  • Can't Forward Or Lookup Additional Names from Contacts to add names to Forward or Reply emails

    Some setting is off that I can no longer forward emails.   I can reply and reply to all - but I can't look up additional names to add to the reply either.    Even if I type the full email address in the forward message it does not let me send the forward (send is oddly not an option).    I can go to contacts and send a new email from contacts.    I just can't forward anymore.   Very odd.   My support group says phone is broken.   Seems like it has to be some simple setting.   Please advise.  

    Hi GiftThatKeepsOnGiving,
    Try resending service books to your BlackBerry then retrying the forwarding with a new message. http://bbry.lv/99SL8c
    If this does not resolve the issue, try removing your service books database, then resending service books again.
    Make sure you test with new messages as you will still be unable to forward the previous messages. http://bbry.lv/buj0rQ

  • Displaying Senders name when receiving a text mess...

    Hiya,
    Not sure if there is an app or a way of doing this - but can you download something for the N96 that when you get a text message come through, instead of it just saying "1 New Message" it'll say "1 New Message from x" where x is the senders name?
    Just a little tweak really that'll be nice I suppose! Tried searching for a similar question on here, and there may well be one but I didn't get through all the pages...
    Thanks for help!

    Psycho, once again you amaze me. How do you find out about all these little applications that I've never even heard off? Must get you to send me a list of applications you have and what they are for.
