Iphone mail: contact autocomplete slow

Hi,
When I write an email, the autocomplete takes ages to find results in the address book. Like around 15 seconds.
This happens apparently when mail is called by another app, like safari for instance.
But if I start Mail directly, I don't have the issue.
There are around 456 contacts in th address book. Starting the Contact app isn't slow at all.
Anybody has the same issue ?
Phil

Yes I started having the same problem. I can quit email, restart, and then try to send an email directly from MAIL and I still get the problem. It always was instant before but no longer. Makes me think that some kind of index that allowed fast search is broken so it is doing a live search now...

IPhone Mail, Contacts, Calendars iCloud and Macbook iTunes settings what a mess!

So I have been having some trouble with my iCloud settings and my iPhone lately and tried some changes and have discovered many more issues that make no sense to me. I have an iPhone and a Macbook Pro. Before I set the settings for each device separately so if I made changes to my email passwords I would have to manually update this info on both devices. Later I noticed on iTunes there was an option to sync the settings, so I selected this option and completed the sync. I have found that this does not work at all. When I make a change to either device it does not update on the other. For some reason the iPhone keeps losing passwords for random accounts for no reason, the info is on the desktop and works fine on mac mail and even when entered on the phone it will ask for it again a week later.
So I decided to wipe all mail accounts from the iPhone and start fresh and transfer the settings from the Macbook to the phone. Well this created a new problem. I have two Apple ID's. When I go to turn on all of the on/off settings for this account through mail,contacts and calendars settings, the switch will work but they will not show the blue on icon...no problem at least the information is on the phone. On my second Apple ID I experience the same problem but now the option to sync reminders has disappeared. I performed another sync and still the iPhone is missing passwords for random email accounts, ones that worked before do not work now and ones that did not work work, constantly changing.
In an attempt to see if some other settings needed to be changed I opened the iCloud settings on the iPhone and found that nothing existed, which is strange because under Mail, Contacts and Calendars that account is listed. Now when I input my primary iCloud info into the iCloud settings on the iPhone it asks me to deactivate the settings from the came iCloud account listed under Mail Contacts and Calendars???? They are the same account and should be sharing the same settings! So now when I go into Mail Contacts and Calendars this Apple id is listed twice and naturally neither of the settings transfer to the Macbook!
All I wanted to do was to make changes to a password for an email account on one device and have that information updated on the other...sync as they say. Now I have found out that the iCloud accounts listed under Mail Contacts and Calendars are not associated with one another...it's all a mess to me!
I am reverting back to manually entering account information for emails and iCloud accounts on both devices because the sync option seems to be faulty to me!
Oh yes I am using a Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and an iPhone 4S 64GB with iOS 6.0.1

Clearing iPhone mail contact history

When I have written emails from the mail program and I have started typing a contact name, a series of names automatically come up that I have sent emails to previously. I misspelled an email address one time and the mail was obviously rejected for an incorrect address. Unfortunately, every time I now begin typing the correct name in the "To" field, the incorrect (misspelled) name also comes up as a choice. Is there any way to clear the names out that automatically come up from past history. I do like that it has the history, but I want to get rid of the incorrect address that is there. Thanks.

The only way to remove this info would require restoring your phone as a "new" device in itunes(not from a backup) & the re-syncing your itunes content. You have to decide if it's worth going through that or just living with it.

IPad and iPhone mail sent items does not synch with exchange 365

This has been a longish term issue that vue ignored till now but...
I run exchange 365 hosted service from Microsoft, own domain.
It synchs all no issues with iPad and iPhone mail, contacts calendars etc all except sent items on mail.
My last synced sent items mail is 2012.
It tries to synch ie connecting etc, then fails, locking up mail synch for about an hour then on all folders.
Just want to be able to see sent items stuff

This was a user issue. The webmail account I have stored the Mails other folders under personal folders and there I found that my sent mail had been getting sync'd.
The answer is on the server not the OS Mail

I updated my Iphone 3gs to last version of iOS and now I can't change my configurations of Mail, Contacts, Calendars.

I updated my Iphone 3gs to last version of iOS and now I can't change my configurations of Mail, Contacts, Calendars.

Generally that is a sign that the iPhone had previously been jailbroken
or hacked to work with other than the original wireless provider. The update
has relocked the iPhone to the original wireless provider. You must
contact them to see if they provide unlocking and if you qualify.
If you can get that far, what does it say when you look at
Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?

Do you have Settings/General/Restrictions/Accounts set to dont allow changes - i have an exchange email account on my 6+ and there was a button at the bottom to delete the account
i dont know that much about exchange ( i hate it) but im wondering if this might be some administrator setting on the account

HT4623 After updating to ios 6 on my iphone 4, my mail,contact disappeared,Can anyone help.thanx

After updating to ios 6 on my iphone 4, my mail,contact disappeared,can anyone help

My suggestion:
Reset your device: Settings>>General>>Reset>>Reset All Ajustments.
It will restore to all company ajustments, but it will not delete anything at all.
After that, do not Sign In Facebook, I see many people got problems after Sign In Facebook.
In my device, I do not fill last names, I just fill names in "First Name".
Another question: Are you sync your contacts with Outlook or iCloud? I have suggested another one to do not sync with Outlook and, in iTunes:
1.In resume, mark "Backup in iCloud"
2. open Information and unmark the "Sync Contacts With". roll down the page and, in "Advance" field, unmark everything.
3.Sync your device again.
It probably will help you.
Good Luck

Iphone interface with Windows Live (Mail, Contact and Calendar)

I use Windows Live Free Download Client for my mail, calendar and contacts. (Just did not want to pay Microsoft for Outlook).
My iPhone does not interface with any of the above. I am not able to view my calendar or contacts on iphone. For contacts I have to go in a round about way of copying to Windows Contacts and then copying to iPhone.
Any easy solutions available or in sight ?

Hi, you just need to add your Windows Live Calendar as a new account. Go to Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calendars/Add Account/Microsoft Hotmail... and then add your Windows Live account and select the option to sync your calendar. Your Windows Live caldendar will then be viewable on your iPhone calendar (click Calendars in upper left corner to verify). You can now edit your Windows Live calendar on your iPhone and it will update on your Windows Live desktop client, and vice versa. Hope this helps!

HT201269 How do I sync my mail contacts from my iPhone to my iPad?

My mail contacts are currently synched from my laptop Outlook to my iPhone. I've added Att/Yahoo mail, and am going to get rid of the laptop and Outlook. I bought a new iPad Air and have Yahoo mail on it, but my contacts didn't sync over when the Apple technician synched the two devices. I do get my Yahoo mail emails on both devices, but my iPad doesn't have the contacts. How can I sync the contacts as well as the emails?

If you go into settings, mail, contacts and calendars. Then tap on the name of your yahoo mail account, you'll see the option to sync contacts, calendars, reminders and notes associated with that e-mail account.
Another thing to do would be to go into the settings, iCloud and enable iCloud syncing of contacts across the devices. (meaning you'd have to enable it on both your phone and ipad.

TS1347 How do I sync with windows mail contacts with my iPhone 4S?

How do I sync with windows mail contacts with my iPhone 4S? I want to move my email contact information from Windows Mail to my iPhone 4S

You don't need Outlook to sync contacts. You do have Windows Contacts available which is a supported address book application for syncing contacts with the iPhone.
Windows Live Mail is not an email client. Windows Live Mail is an email account that can be accessed via webmail access using a browser or with an email client such as with Outlook or Windows Mail on a PC.
You can export your Windows Live Mail contacts from your Windows Live Mail online address book for import into the Windows Contacts address book application on your PC which is supported for syncing contacts with your iPhone.
