IPhone contact problems with 2.0

There is a new contacts icon on the main page of the phone, if you click on it and try to scroll or click on a letter to get to those names the phone is really hesitant but it finally caches up...zzzz. But then when you click on a contact it becomes hesitant again....zzzz. Then if you click on a regular 123-456-7890 number it dial it, but if the number start with *67123-456-7890 it refuses to dial it or in the case you need to dial a number 123-456-7890,,,1234567890 like to get to your voice mail or access another service the phone won't dial it. This only works the "old way" click on phone icon (bottom left) then click contacts then everything works fine. I have restore the phone twice and no change.

I shut down itunes, disconnected the iphone and shut down and restarted my laptop. That seemed to fix the problem. Not sure what the technical definition is, but it worked. If this does not work, make an appointment to see a genius at the apple store asap.

  • How to move iPhone contact list with custom ringtones to OS X server Contacts?

    I have recently setup a new Mac Pro, Mid 2012, running Mavericks OS X Server.  I was previously syncing through iTunes on Snow Leopard, 10.6...
    Due to the changes in Mavericks WRT iTunes address book syncing, I want to setup Contacts in Server, as I do not want to use iCloud. I tried using the Address Book sync on my MacBook Pro, but that doesn't appear to save any custom ringtone data. I setup Contacts in Server & I moved the current address book to Mavericks, but dragging the contacts into the Server list in Contacts generates warnings, "Some contacts could not be copied to the server"  and then sometimes starts duplicating the groups and contacts. The system log has some errors that seem related (system & user munged):

    So the question is:
    How to does one move or import iPhone contact list with custom ringtones to OS X server Contacts? ... and will Contacts save/preserve the ringtone settings?
    Thanks

    lsof is the standard tool for listing open files, although I'm not quite sure it'll do what you want.
    It will list every open file used by every process on the machine, including many you don't expect. I don't know how it will present files opened by network users - whether they'll appear as owned by the file sharing process or not at all. Definitely one to try.

  • How do I combine my iphone contact list with my laptop pc contact list?  And how does it handle duplicates with different information?

    How do I combine my iphone contact list with my laptop pc contact list? And how does it handle duplicates that have different information?

    I do not need anything to change on my email that is working fine on both.

        gspielman,
    Help has arrived to assist you with getting those contacts on both your devices. The Verizon cloud service is definitely a great tool to use and you can also use Apple iCloud as well. When you sign into the Verizon cloud on your iPad does it give an option or message to restore?

    But that ´s the one I have installed.
    Any suggestions?

  • ICloud not syncing and Contact problems with merging duplicates

    I was having problems with the syncing of my notes app. When I got the iphone 5 I had since using Mountain Lion I had started to make use of the fact that the notes sync across iCloud. Great. Although not for long. Everything was going fine notes were syncing across devices but then spontaneously they stopped syncing for no apparent reason. I then went to look in settings, looked online and all through discussion forums. Switching notes on and off on icloud both on the macbook and on my iphone. Restarting devices etc etc. iCloud itself online was not able to access the notes app. I kept getting error messages that I would submit to apple. Then I finally relqinquished and unhooked the iCloud accounts from the computer and phone. And at the sacrifice of losing albums in my photostream they sprung back to syncing.
    Then the real problem happened. I had selected to keep a copy of my address book in contacts when I unhooked my computer just in case. When everything linked back up again, I then had duplicates in my address book. Not 1 (this can happen just having icloud active) but 5 sets of duplicates, granted I had kept a version from when I unhooked. So I looked around again for how I could quickly and easily get rid of duplicates. Following suggestions online I go into contacts>cards>look for duplicates. I had 1200 or somthing duplicates, so naturally when given the option "would you like to merge the info in these duplicates I click yes. The MacBook starts to chugg away. Its gonna take a while. So I come back later. And before returning to CONTACTS, go to send a message from MESSAGES and I notice that 80% of the threads have no name. I go back to CONTACTS and WHAM 100s of contacts disappeared in the merge never to be retrieived again. You cant restore CONTACTS from Time Machine as it is just mirrors the contacts that you have in present time. Restoring phone doesn't work becasue it just downloads from iCloud after it has restored. TOTALLY RIDICULOUS. I am livid.

    what I mean is - create a complete new contact on your contacts and select a picture for it from your Mac. Then set it as "make this my card"
    Once you have done that - presumably it will sync with iCloud - have a look and the contact should appear on your iPhone too.
    On your iPhone go on Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendar> Under "Contacts: in "My Info" select That new contact you created on your Mac.
    Let me know if that works.
    -On another note, so what you are saying is, if I take my 15' Macbook Pro in and they have none of the old ones in stock, they just give you a Retina display one! Did you take it to them for the contact issue you were having or something else?

  • Deleting iPhone contacts & syncing with MobileMe

    I had been syncing iphone contacts to a mobileme account and then wanted to instead sync them to another mobileme account (the main account in a family).  This is a problem since you cannot delete all the contacts on the iPhone (I had 2000 of them.) and iPhone syncing with mobileme does not allow you to replace contacts on the iPhone with what is on mobileme.  (iPhone allows only a merge which would duplicate contacts and add many I no longer wanted.)  After considering the "solution" offered by a "Genuis" which was to reset the iPhone and start over which is a painful process to reorganize the apps and login all apps that require it, etc.  Instead I developed the following procedure that worked great (This was with Mac OS 10.6.8 and IOS 4.3.5):
    1) Sync address book on Mac to make sure mobileme is up to date.
    2) Backup all the address book to an address book archive and/or select all contacts and save in a vcard file (File -> Export)
    3) Uncheck sync of contacts in MobileMe (Apple -> System Preferences -> MobileMe -> Sync tab)
    4) Select all contacts in Address Book and hit delete (Edit -> Select All, then hit delete)
    5) Select all groups in Address Book and delete (select first group, hold shift and click last group, then hit delete)
    6) Connect iPhone and sync.  Go to info tab in iTunes and select Sync Address Book Contacts, then Under Advanced, check Replace Information on this iPhone - Contacts.  This will transfer contacts (none) from Mac to iPhone which will delete all existing iPhone contacts.  Click apply and then sync.
    7) After sync, disconnect iPhone and verify there are no contacts on iPhone.
    8) On iPhone, go to Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Accounts -> MobileMe (login if you haven't done so), turn on Contacts (to sync with mobileme)
    9) In a few minutes, the contacts on the iPhone (none) will be merged with the desired contacts in MobileMe and the contacts in MobileMe should show up in the iPhone Address book - This completes the iPhone.
    10) On the Mac, go to Apple->System Preferences->Mobile Me->Sync tab and recheck Contacts.  Click Advanced, Reset Sync Data, select only Contacts and transfer contacts from MobileMe cloud to the Mac, and click Replace.
    11) In a few minutes, all contacts and groups from MobileMe should show up in the Mac Address book and you are done.

    Yes I did select merge.
    Did it 2 times without anything happening on iPhone or MobileMe.
    Third time it deleted my contacts on the iPhone.
    Is there no option to tell it which direction to do the merge/sync?

  • IPhone sync problem with iCal and Address Book

    I have a new iPhone 4 that is not syncing contacts or events. It doesn't seem to matter whether the event or contact is created in my iMac or on the iPhone. Either way, the data doesn't move. During the iPhone synch process, where iTunes tells you what is going on, syncing calendars and contacts doesn't even appear. When I had my iPod Touch, all worked well. I saw a post about resetting in iSync, etc., but when I look there, I don't even see my iPhone, and so far I can't add it. My only option there is to add a bluetooth device. So I need some help. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
    Chuck

    You're welcome.
    You can't hurt anything by resetting the sync history on your Mac, and doing so may resolve the problem.
    Syncing contacts direct with a supported Address Book application and syncing calendar events direct with a supported Calendar app on your computer via the iTunes sync process has nothing to do with a MobileMe account - a trial account or otherwise. Completely separate and not related even if you are syncing contacts and calendar events over the air with your MobileMe account on your iPhone. If you are doing so with your iPhone, syncing direct with the Address Book and iCal via the iTunes sync process is not required.

  • Iphone 3g problems with charging

    After charging my phone, I unplug it and I can't hear any sound coming out of it. I check my settings, everything is on.

    The unit finally failed and I opened it up. It appears to consist of an AC-->dc converter with suitable filters and regulators and a small computer that probably talks via I2C or a similar protocol to the iphone.
    I suspect that components are defective and the output voltage is outside the range it thinks it should be or some problems with the communications cause it to send an erronious message in response to the query sent by the iphone. I did NOT see any obviously bulging electrolytic capacitors, but I did not test for high ESR and I suspect that is the problem.
    A 'off brand' AC Charger of iPod and iPhone from Radio Shack works fine while BOTH authentic APPLE iphone 'tiny cube' chargers are going for recycling.
    Software fixes may cause the iphone to either keep trying until it gets the right response or ignore the erronious responses.

  • IPhone 3G problems with 3G...

    Hi,
    My iPhone 3G was working perfectly with OS 3.0 but lately it's been playing up - now whenever I connect to my home router 3G overrides Wi-Fi... laptop has no problem with the router, no settings have been changed on the router - the router is not the problem.
    Also now, while sitting at my desk I can't get a signal anymore... I have to turn 3G off to get a signal - the signal is full bar with EDGE.
    I've done everything short of putting it in the freezer: -
    - reset network
    - forget this network
    - renew lease
    - restore
    - all sorts of turning on & off 3G, data roaming...etc combinations
    but no change... or improvement!
    What's going on???
    Thanks

    Try restoring your phone from your most resent backup, followed by syncing your iTunes content back to your phone. But first, find and delete the existing .ipsw file on your computer(it "may" be corrupt). You will have to turn on "Show All Hidden Files & Folders" to see it. This will force iTunes to download a fresh copy. The .ipsw file can be found here:
    XP: C:\Documents and Settings[username]\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates
    Vista & 7: C:\Users[username]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates
    OS X: ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates

  • Has Yosemite corrected Mavericks' Mail/Contacts problem with Groups?

    After I switched from Snow Leopard to Mavericks, I found that I could no longer list a Contact Group name in the To block of an email without all of the addresses in the group showing, despite having Mail Preferences set so that all of the addresses wouldn't show. The work-around for this problem is having to put Contact Group names in the Blind Copy section of an email. Does anyone know if Yosemite has corrected this problem?
    Thanks,
    Bob W.

    Thanks Barney. I assumed that Yosemite hadn't corrected the problem.
    However, I'm not sure where you got the information that the "BCC" section on Mail email forms was designed to be used for "Group" addresses from Mac's Address Book (now Contacts).  The "BCC" section of the email form was designed to be used by email composers who wanted copies of their emails to go to addresses that they wanted to keep hidden from those whose addresses appeared in the "To" section of the email.
    The "Group" address feature in Contacts were created to allow email senders the option to send emails to large numbers of addressees that had something in common (such as a group of relatives of the sender, or in my case, members of a club), so that you didn't have to type in large numbers of addresses in the "To" window every time you wanted to send to such a group. At the same time, it kept the addresses hidden from all of those who received the email as well as from spammers.
    Mac also gives (or did give) you the option to have the addresses in the Group in the "To" window to show or not to show. Go to "Preferences-Composing" section in Mail and you'll see that under the "Addressing" heading, you're given the option "When sending to a group, show all member addresses."  Since that option is normally unchecked, the default is to not have the addresses show. Unless you opt to allow the addresses to show, only the name that you've given the Group shows in the "To" window of the email. 
    If the Group addresses in Contacts were designed to be placed in the "BCC" section of an email, there would be no purpose in having that Preference option available in Mail Preferences.  The problem with having to use the "BCC" section of the email for Group addresses is that many email server companies assume that high numbers of addresses showing in the "BCC" section of an email is an indicator that the email is coming from a spammer, so the use of "BCC" for large numbers of email addresses can cause problems. The use of "Group" address names in the "To" window avoids those problems.

  • IPhone 6, problems with volume, automatically goes to the max when listening to the music

    iPhone 6 iOS 8.1, sometimes when I'm trying to increase volume by 1 bar, it goes to the max and there is no way to decrease it without reboot. Had same problem before updating to iOS 8.1... I've never had that problem with my 5S, which is also on iOS 8.1. I'm using Beats Mixr headphones with remote. I've tried to restore the phone, didn't helped.
    Yesterday I was listening to the music on iPhone 6 for about 4 hours and this happened 5 times, today I listened music from iPhone 5S for almost 5 hours and it didn't happended even once... I was using the same headphones... Any ideas?
    THanks in advance

    My phone is not on mute, the volume is up to the max, there are no blue tooth connections, the phone will not ring only vibrate with the ringer on.  I cannot hear any music through the phone either.

  • Contact problems with 920

    I just got a review 920 from Nokia, and i have a contacts problem.
    I was under the impression that contacts were automatically stored in the linked Hotmail account, and this seems to be the case because all my Lumia 800 contacts are listed when i go to my account in the web browser. But, when i put that account into my 920, none of the contacts appeared. So i then added my Google account, which brought most of them down, then Facebook, then linked them together and hid my Facebook friends from showing. All working fine - annoying that they weren't pulled immediately from Hotmail, but they're there now.
    However, i rebooted the phone, and when i opened People, they were all unlinked and Facebook contacts were showing again. OBviously i don't want to be fixing this on every reboot, so is there something i'm not doing correctly? I never had this problem on my Lumia 800.

    Still don't understand it when you say that "most" of your Google contacts appeared, unless you didn't give it a while to update.
    No sorry, it brought all my Google contacts, but those represent most of my overall contacts - the rest are in Hotmail.
    In people > settings > filter, Hotmail is ticked, Facebook is not. But my Facebook contacts are all displaying, and everything is unlinked after i rebooted. And my Hotmail contacts just won't download, even though it should automatically. So this is a major pain.
