IPhone contact photos not showing up!

I have set different photos as icons for a lot of my contacts. When they call, the picture only shows up as a very small icon in the upper left hand side of the screen. On my wife's iPhone 4S, her photos come across as full screen.
No I'm not using Facebook pics and yes I emailed these photos to myself and downloaded them from email to "assign to contact".
thanks

Please re-post if you have figured this out! I am having the same issue, though with mine the only contact photos that show up are for people with iPhones(?). I cannot find a solution.

WOOHOO!!! i finaly fixed the problem. Here is what to do:
Chances are if you did the same thing as me you either have
A) No album names at all for ALL your songs in your library
or
B) Have the same name for every album for ALL your songs in your library.
Here is how to fix it (yah it will take a little work but its worth getting your iPod functioning properly).
Unless you dont want to have to go and actualy set al lthe album names for every song here is what you can do:
Go through to iTunes and arange your songs by Artist name. Click the top song for your first artist, hold Shift and click the last song for that same artist (to multi select all the songs for the artist) go into get info and check the Album box. Copy the name of the artist to the Album box and hit ok.
Now when u update your ipod and go into ur Artists section the actual Artist name should show up instead of the song names.
For some reason having the same album name for all your songs messes up the organization of the iPod.
Hope this helps anyone else that is having the same problem

You're using Exchange Active Sync to synchronize contacts and calendars with your company Exchange Server. If the default calendar/address books are set to the Exchange account, it will sync automatically. This is normal.
Go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars to change the default address book and calendars to a something else, iCloud or something synced from your home computer instead.

Contact your carrier. Caller ID is a carrier feature.

My Photo Not Showing Up in Messages

My photo does not show beside my texts in Messages on my Mac. Only a shadow of a generic person in a rectangle is there. I can see the photos of others who write me, though. I have my photo in Contacts and it does show up in Mail, but not in Messages. My photo also shows up in IMessage on the iPad.
Why is my photo not showing up in Messages and how could I make it visible? Thanks.

HI,
Your Pic is set if you have Buddy list set up/logged in.
Enable the Bonjour account if you do not have Jabber, AIM or Yahoo IDs set up in Messages.
Click on the current Buddy Pic.
You may find it has pulled the Pic from the My Card in the Contacts app (Formerly the Address Book)
In turn this may be picking up on the System Preferences > User and Groups > your account Login pic.
That is to say when you set up the (Mac User) Account it asked you to create/chose a pic from the Login Screen.
Later the process of setting up an Accounts asked for details that create the Contacts/Address Book Card and the Login in pic is dragged across.
AS you then get to set up Messages (Or iChat) then the My Card pic is pulled through.
All three spots can be changed independently of each other.
Some of the Recent Items can be from either of the others.
This is my Buddy list pic and th "Recents" I have.
The Zebra and head in "teeth" pics are from some testing I did with Pics in the Contacts > My Card options rather than Messages.
Finally once you have a pic linked to Messages then it also show up at your end for the Chat window for iMessages (as well as for you in AIM or Jabber)
NOTE
In AIM and Jabber (Or Yahoo) your Pic is Broadcast and is what you Buddy sees next to your Name (They can override this though)
In iMessages though your pic is not sent and your Buddy's Contacts app supplies whatever pic they have for you. (As yours does for them)

All of my contacts are not showing up

Once I updated my phone to to iCloud, now all of my contacts are not showing up in my contact list but if I type in the number, they show up. How do I fix this?

I also have this problem, just from the iPhone 5s which makes my life crazy, too.
The problem of having multiple devices doesn't seem to help, but the odd part is when everything I am doing is correct, it still doesn't sync like it used to do before iCloud, and when we had to USB wire connect the iPhone to the Laptop to make contacts sync.
Might I add that I am not using MAIL on my LAPTOP?
but ?Britty sounds like her issue is easier as gmail sometimes can create duplicates so you are in good if you are not having that problem or nightmare...
IF ANYONE ELSE can PLEASE ADD to this THREAD? I would be thankful
as there seems to be a TRENDING on iPhone 5s not syncing with other devices or backwards.....(I have added contacts to the iPhone 5s and they never get added to the iCloud or the iPad or the Addressbook or CONTACTS on the LAPTOP....
This should be working and I have checked the CONTACTS on the laptop GROUPS , iCloud, vs ALL ON MY MAC
it just isn't syncing and in some cases I am getting a WEB DAV error or CAL error...-1
what is that? iCloud will not sync all contacts?
something is crazy
but I want to remain at 10.8 MOUNTAIN LION and not upgrade to MAVERICKS......or use MAIL on my LAPTOP...just CONTACTS ONLY......

All of my contacts do not show up in icloud

All of my contacts do not show up in the Icloud. The contacts that do show up only show the phone number.
I would think that all of the contct information would show up.
What am I doing wrong?

Open your contacts and tap Groups. Here, check to see if any of your contacts belong to non-iCloud groups such as On My iPhone, Google, Yahoo, and Exchange account or something else.
Also, check to see if the contacts that only show the phone number belong to a particular account or group.

In the Event mode use the View ➙ Sort ➙ By Date ➙ Decending menu option. Then the latest imports will be near the top of the Event window (depending on when the photos were taken of course).
Or Control-Click on one of the thumbnails in the Last Import album and select Show Event from the contextual menu:

HT4623 My iPhone 4S does not show ringer bar and i now need to use ear phones to listen to music

My iphone 4s is not showing ringer bar and i cant listen to music without earphones

Hey chirambab,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with your iPhone 4s in regards to audio.
The following resource may provide a solution:
iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
1. Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
2. Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
3. If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
4. Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
5. If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
6. If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
- Try turning off Bluetooth.
- If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
7. Restart the iPhone.
8. If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
9. If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, please contact Apple Support.
If the issue persists, please follow the last step by contacting Apple Support for support and service options.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Do changes/additions to the contacts list in Outlook appear on the iPhone?

Did you sync your contacts with iCloud on your old phone by turning on contacts in Settings>iCloud? If so, are you contacts on icloud.com when you check using your computer?

Hi
I have the a similar problem - only I can't actually get the calendar to show up. I've added the account and it's showing Mail and Notes but not Calendar. But I'd like it to show the outlook calendar.
I'm going to
Go to settings > mail contacts calendar
select your account that's affected
But under that account there isn't a calendar showing and I can't see any options to add it?

HT1296 When syncing Outlook on my computer w/my iphone, new events put into my iphone calender did not show up on my computer in Outlook. Is this the only way it works, Outlook to iphone and not both ways?

When syncing my Outlook calender with my iphone calender, only items from Outlook synced. Events I added to my iphone calender did NOT show up on my Outlook calender. Is this the way it works, only one way?

Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar and just confirm that you haven't selected a calendar such as the one listed under On My iPhone (if that's listed), and that your have selected your Outlook calendar here as your default. Assuming you have, if you are syncing your calendar using iTunes (rather than iCloud), you may need to reset your sync history in iTunes. Follow the troubleshooting steps here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692.

Since update to 5.0.1 iphone contacts caller id shows email address rather than contact name and number

Since i upgraded to 5.0.1 . My iphone contacts caller id shows email address not contact name and number. Is this a settings issue?

Hi, it's maybe happening the same here!
I have an iphone 3gs. Since I did the upgrade to ios5, when I receive an sms with the notification of a missed call I am no longer able to see if it's coming from a number of my contact list, because in the sms the message correspondence for that contact underlines now the number PLUS the first 2 cifres of the date! So the number results always being 2 numbers longer and it's impossible get to the original.
That's really a major problem for me, as I'm no longer able to know who has called me, if someone I know (and who) or if a new number.
I add a capture to explain it better (I have banned a couple of cifres for privacy reasons).
Anyone solved the problem or can help please?
Thank you!
