IPhone Contacts Won't Scroll Through Alphabet

When I go into the contacts on the home page, or the contacts in the phone area, I cannot use the scroll bar on the right side of the screen. I can only make it go to the search (top of the page) or the As, and there are more than As in the contact list. Worked fine in previous version and noticed it didn't work immediately after upgrade, since I use it a lot. My wife's phone, which is identical, does scroll? Tried turning off and restarted multiple times.

Wow! Thanks for the tip Peter.
Your comment got me thinking about what was different between our phones, which is I have the exchange server option. So I went into the settings for that account, turned off the contacts for outlook and I could scroll once again. Turned the contacts back on, and everything is working perfectly again.
Thanks for your help!

  • IPhone won't scroll through or click on messages

    I can Scroll and click while in any other app or on any setting in my phone, but for some reason I can't scroll through or click on messages at all while in the inbox. Since I use texting more than most other apps, this is really frustrating! Help!

    Close the  Messages app from Recently Used (multi-tasking) list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Swipe up on the Messages app preview card to remove it from the list
    - Press the home button when done.
    Try Messages again.

  • My iPhone contacts won't sync to exchange

    Hi guys,
    I am trying to sync my iPhone contacts to Google contacts through exchange so that I can unify my contacts.
    I followed these directions:
    http://support.google.com/a/users/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740
    But I don't see my contacts in Google contacts.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!

    I had a situation where some contacts on my iPhone either did not appear on my Mac or had only some of the information. I discovered that these contacts were linked on the iPhone to accounts other than iCloud - in my case the Exchange contacts at work. Once the missing information was copied to the iCloud linked contact, the details appeared on my Mac. To have a look, open the contact on your iPhone and scroll to the very bottom. There you will see all the Linked Contacts. Make sure one of these is iCloud and that it contains all the information you want to show on your Mac.

  • IPhone contacts won't sync with Outlook

    I am trying to sync my iPhone contacts with my Outlook contacts but they won't sync. In iTunes I checked "Sync Contacts with Outlook" but nothing happens.

    Check your contacts in Outlook and make sure they belong to iCloud and not My Contacts or another account such as Gmail, Yahoo or Exchange.  Only iCloud contacts will sync with your devices.

  • IPhone contacts won't sync

    After downloading and syncing my iPhone with the 2.0.1, iTunes dumped my library and forced me to reload it. I then resynced my iPhone and got an error msg stating my contacts could not be synced due to an "error reading iPhone contacts." Has anyone else run into this problem, and if so, how did you fix it?
    Thanks

    C Butcher,
    Have you tried replacing contact information on your iPhone? Granted to do this, you would want to manually add the iPhone-only contacts to your contact management software.
    To replace contacts on the iPhone, just select "Contacts" within Advanced under the Info Tab in iTunes.
    Hope this helps,

  • IPhone Contacts won't sync with iCloud

    Hi!
    I have my Macbook Pro and iPhone 4S synced with iCloud, so everything I do in one device shows up in the other.
    About 2 days ago I noticed my iPhone contacts were not syncing with iCloud. Calendars, Notes, etc. is syncing and the Macbook Pro is syncing as well. Only iPhone contacts are not (both ways).
    Any ideas are welcome!! Thank you!!!

  • My mouse wheel won't scroll through tabs

    I can't remember if it was right when I updated to v.22, but if not then it was shortly after that my mouse wheel stopped working for scrolling through tabs. I can still scroll through pages just fine, but even on safe mode and with hardware acceleration disabled, if I put my cursor over tabs and scroll, nothing happens.

    Hello,
    note that to scroll through tabs with mouse wheel, you can position the mouse cursor, between the two arrows at each end, of the row of tabs. That means that you have quite a few tabs to see the arrows at each end.
    otherwise, '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • Iphone5 contacts won't transfer through Bluetooth BMW...

    I have a 2013 BMW.  My iphone 5 will pair just fine, but the contacts will not transfer.  I spent about 2 hours at the dealer where they tested their tech's iphone 5's -- all transferred no problem.  Took the phone to Apple, got a new phone.  That one worked for about 3 weeks and now it won't transfer.  AM SO FRUSTRATED.  I've re-set my phone, unpaired and repaired my phone...I've done everything possible.  Can't figure out what the problem is.  Any one else having this issue?

    Thanks Wheeler
    I've got a BMW 318 2009 (September) and iPhone 5 on Vodafone UK.
    I actually suspect now that the issue is to do with the number of contacts I have, mostly generated from the Microsoft Exchange Suggested Contacts list which I've noticed results in me having over 1200 contacts in total.
    I'm doing a test later in the car as I've now disabled the extra suggested contacts so they're not syncing onto my phone. Hopefully my guess is correct - I've now only got 850 contacts so I think there's more chance it will cope and sync them all to the BMW.
    I'll let you know how I get on though!

  • IPhone Contacts won't let me "add to favorite"

    I have an iPhone 3g - not the newest version - with the new 3.0. When I go into Contacts and then find a contact I want to add as a favorite, the only options it displays is "Text Message" or "Share Contact". There is no "add as favorite". What gives?
    Thanks!

    The "Add to Favorites" tab doesn't show if the contact is already a favorite - should show a star next to the number - or if there isn't a telephone # in the contact (email and physical addresses obviously can't be favorite numbers for the phone app). If the entry isn't already a favorite, and is a telephone #, you need to restore the phone in iTunes.

  • Iphone contacts won't sync to mac

    Hi
    Very new to mac but have searched for this; too many answers with too much variance so I have to ask myself, sorry.
    I've had an iphone 4 for 2 years, always syncing contacts with outlook on my old PC. Everything worked fine until icloud; I then found that any new contacts weren't syncing to outlook, I'm assuming because the phone was only syncing to icloud?
    No matter, decided not to worry as I wanted to buy a mac, having worked with them recently.
    So my issue now is (very similar to before) that I can't sync my contacts from my iphone to my mac, again because it insists the phone is backing up to icloud. I tried this morning; it prompted me that the phone was 'on' icloud and therefore not syncing with mac etc; I checked the box to sync contacts, hit apply and merge in the hopes I could get my contacts from my phone onto the mac. Instead it's created another phone book on my iphone with just the three contacts that were on the mac?!
    Now when I go to contacts on my iphone it has three groups: All contacts, all on my iphone and all icloud. The first and last have all my contacts in; the all on my iphone has zero. I know the transition to something new isn't always easy, but I'm now really confused.
    The Mac is on Snow Leopard, and my understanding of browsing the forums is that only lion will work with icloud. I haven't bought any software yet, so I'm not concerned about compatibilty if I upgrade. I AM however concerned as to how icloud will work if I do upgrade?
    Will it use the iMac or the iphone as the 'senior' device?
    If it uses the mac will I lose all my contacts?
    With cloud do I not need to backup my iphone?
    What's the difference between backup, sync and icloud?
    So many questions I know; really hope I'm not shot down in flames as my first time on here. Any advice about this appreciated.

    iCloud is a second attempt at dealing with making data available among devices - MobileMe was the first and was limited to just a few things, contacts and calendar events. iCloud goes much further. It isn't easy to meld two or more databases. The first think to keep in mind is that iCloud holds the truth - that is the data that is pushed out everywhere else. If you log on to icloud.com you can see the addressbook and calendar that will be sent to all your devices. The devices' job is to send new data or edited data to the cloud.
    With that in mind, I simply upgraded my computer from Snow Leopard to Lion - after turning my phone off. My thinking was that if disaster struck I could delete the computer calendar & addressbook database. Then I could log onto iCloud and make sure my calendar and addressbook was okay and then let the cloud fix the computer. And it true disaster struck I could delete everything in the cloud and turn the iPhone back on which would repopulate the cloud and then my computer.
    What actually happened is that after I upgraded to Lion I wound up with an addressbook that had 'on my Mac' and 'on the cloud' which had the same stuff. I deleted the 'on my mac' stuff. My calendar, if I recall right, just had what I expected. I tested by making an event and fact contact on the phone - they appeared on my computer. Did the same on my computer - they appeared on my phone.
    Why all the hub-bub over Lion? A couple things. First, there's always an outcry of Mac OS XYZ broke my computer! Not every upgrade goes smoothly. Do a search here for Kappy's upgrade advice, follow it, and your chances of a successful upgrade are pretty good. Second, we've had quite a few OS upgrades in the last 5 years that brought small changes and new services. Lion was different, it really shook things up and lots of people don't like it when their cheese is moved. Third, Lion isn't compatible with old software written before Apple switched to Intel processors and lots of people just don't read before they upgrade.
    Should you upgrade? Since SL lost the ability to sync with iOS devices iCloud alone is worth the price of admission. The changes between OS versions always mean that developers stop supporting the older OS at some point and I suspect that Lion changes things enough that SL users are going to find less software being made for the OS pretty rapidly.

  • Duplicates in iphone contacts won't delete

    I have duplicates and triplicates of contacts in my iPhone. My iMac only shows one of each. I tried to delete them in the iPhone, but they don't go away

    If you phone is syncing contacts with iCloud, Contacts would be set to On in Settings>iCloud on your phone.  If you are syncing contacts with an exchange account, you would have Contacts set to On in you exchange email account in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars.  Also, when you open Contacts and tap Groups at the top, you would see groups other than iCloud listed.

  • Upgrade from iPhone 4 to Nokia Lumia 928; texts from iPhone contacts no longer coming through

    I just upgraded from an iPhone 4 to a Nokia Lumina 928 last week.  I was forced to make the upgrade because my iPhone's charging port broke (due to normal wear and tear), and could no longer be charged.  I was unable to acquire a replacement prior to the phone dying completely, and as such, I was unsuccessful in resetting the iPhone.
    I am unable to receive texts from any iPhone users, period.  We have tried deleting my number as a contact, resetting the SMS and iMessage settings, deleting my number and unregistering my device from iCloud and Apple, and I am still not receiving messages.  These are standard messages, without pictures.
    What is the solution?

    Your phone isn't the problem.
    Your contacts may be using iMessage, which can only be used with other Apple devices.
    Turning iMessage off resolves the problem.
