IPhone Recents list

Is there any way to open a contact or send a text from the Recents list? When I tap it, it results in calling the person.
When I was using a blackberry, I could use the recents list to view the contact, add a number to my contacts, send a text (and probably more that I've forgotten).
Or is there a 3rd party app I need to be able to do this? If so I'd appreciate recommendations.

you click the arrow next of the name of the person you are trying to pull up and then click text message.

How long is a recent list stores in an iPhone in messages? I deleted a contact almost a year ago and it still comes up as a name and number?

How long is a recent list stores in an iPhone in messages? I deleted a contact almost a year ago and it still comes up as a name and number and when you click on the I button, it says "delete from recent list"
Hardly a recent number

Yeah that info will certainly carry over form the backup, but once you delete it from recents, it shouldn't show up anymore.

Hi, I have an iPhone 4 which rings people when it is locked, whether or not in my pocket. I always lock it when not using it. Can anyone help? It is calling random numbers, not the last person or anyone even recently called on my recents list. Thanks

Pay no attention to iinami, the amount of replies to people saying their handsets must have been jailbroken everytime iTunes throws out an error is tremendous. (Clearly you don't need to have any real knowledge to get to level 3 on these forums, let's hope apple's geniuses know a lot more than some of their customers.)

Solution below.
Error 9
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

IPhone Calendar List View Extends Back Only One Year

My iPhone calendar List view extends back approximately one year despite the fact that I have calendar entries extending back to 1999 and that older data is visible under the Day and Month views. This is a problem because the only search mechanism in iPhone calendar is through the List view. Therefore, any search I conduct extends back only to the data in the List view ... which means back only one year.
Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions on how I could change this such that the List view extends to include ALL of my calendar entries and is in conformity with the Day and Month views? (I wanted to ask if anyone knows how to "correct" this, but perhaps Apple has designed it this way to speed-up the searching in List view ... I'm not certain.)
I am currently running the most recent iOS update, am syncing my iPhone calendar via MobileMe, have upgraded to the new version of the MobileMe calendar, and have ALREADY reset my sync. history, deleted my iPhone calendar and re-synced it, etc. These don't resolve the problem.

I've noticed that the date to which the List View will "look back" will change depending on software updates or syncs.
For instance, a few weeks ago my List View went back to December 2009 ... now it goes back to Jan. 2010 (i.e. I lost a month of "look back"). I do not specifically recall what triggered this change, but I reset my sync. log during this period.
If you make no changes to the sync. log or update the software, the List View start date will stay constant I believe. For instance, if the List View goes back to Jan. 1, 2010 right now it should stay that way until you reset the sync. log or update the iPhone software. Theoretically then the List View can "look back" much longer than 12 months assuming you make no changes to the sync. log or update the software. Of course, this doesn't address our issue here, but I thought I would point out that there seems to be a consistent pattern here and not some random bug screwing things up.
I'm still thinking that this is the way Apple intended it to work. In other words, that Apple felt it necessary to limit the calendar search feature to approximately 12 months worth of calendars. I hope I'm wrong.

My Iphone contact list was used to send Spam

My yahoo e-mail was recently used to send Spam to everyone in my Iphone conact list that has an e-mail address associated with it. I do not use my yahoo account on a PC just on my Iphone. My phone contact list is not synced to a PC and I don't send emails from my personal email to co-workers and they recieved the Spam from my Yahoo account. Has the Iphone finally been hacked? How can I prevent it.I will change my Passwords but how did it send from my Iphone contact list. The e-mail that was sent is not in my sent or deleted folder. was sent on Friday at 11:15 at night while I was asleep and phone was charging.

It was your Yahoo email account that was hacked, which is why the spam was sent from your account, or more lilely spoofed to appear to be from your account (actually sent from the spammer's email). This is common with Yahoo email which has been easily hacked. If you ever sent any emails to the people who received the spam, their email address's are easily found by the hackers.
As far as your Contact list on your iPhone, the only way it can be hacked into is if the phone was ever jailbroken. OTOH, if you sync your contacts with social media like Fakebook and Twits, your contacts are long in the wild.

Archived messages showing up in most recent lists

Seeing quite a few archived (thus un reply-able) messages showing up in most recent lists in the iPhone forums.
Sort of odd and bringing up old answered questions.

The Apple Discussions Host team has retitled some older answered topics to increase their discoverability in user searches. The act of editing causes it to bubble to the top of the list.

Clear Recent list

I use acrobat reader on my iPad since Nov. 2013.
During the version updates, the "Recent" list is the most bothersome.
At first it won't show up when I need it, then it won't go away, but at least it makes sense:
If I move pdfs to cloud.arcobat.com then delete them from the cloud, the file names are cleared from the list.
But after the recent update, 'if' above do not apply any more:
The (re)moved pdf names are cleared once the upload is done locally, (the names are still there with clouded marks are tagged on the far right).
and the MOST CREEPY part is I still can open the DELETED (clouded) pdfs and pick up reading from the last time
even if I sign out/in multiple times, where are the files from??????????
BTW, in 'Recents' screen, there is not any action button on the PDF reader for iPad, how can I intentionally clear the Recent list?
Is this a bug or a feature? Why I cannot look it up on the HELP?

If you have a PDF document that is locally stored on your iPad/iPhone, it will appear in the Documents section of the File Browser in the Reader home screen.
Once you upload/save the PDF document to Acrobat.com (cloud storage), the local PDF document still appears in the Documents section, and the uploaded PDF document appears in the Acrobat.com section. Therefore, you now have two copies of the PDF document: the one on your iPad/iPhone and the other one on Acrobat.com (cloud storage)
Even if you delete the local PDF document that appears in the Documents section, the one on Acrobat.com (cloud storage) is still intact (i.e. not deleted).
When you go to the Recents section, you will see the PDF document that is stored on Acrobat.com with the "Cloud" icon.
Because it is not the local PDF document that you have deleted, you can still access the other copy from Acrobat.com.
In the Recents section
Your PDF documents on Acrobat.com (cloud storage) are displayed with the Cloud icon.
Your local PDF documents (stored only on your iPad/iPhone) are displayed without the Cloud icon.
Please let us know if this is not the case that you have experienced.

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 to remove recents list

Since upgrading to iOS8 on my iPad Mini when I press the Home key and the list of currently running apps show above that screen there is now a Recents list. I assume this has come from the Cloud as recent phone calls made on my iPhone. The iPhone has a slightly different list.
I don't find that list helpful, useful or in any way a good use of screen space. I would love to disable/hid/loose the Recents list and regain the screen space allotted for that "feature".
The iOS8 for iPad book is silent about recents. Please can someone help me get ride of them?
Thanks

You can turn off both the Recents and Favorites that appear in the App Switcher by using the Settings app.
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > scroll down to the Contacts section > Show in App Switcher > turn off Recents and, if desired, Favorites.

Recents List - Can it show call duration?

On my old T-Mobile MDA phone (runs Windows Mobile 5), I could click once on the call in my Recents list and it would drop down a small window showing the call duration in minutes. A very handy feature!
Is there a way to do this on the iPhone?
Thanks, Scott K.

I just sent this feedback to Apple:
On the Recents listing in the Phone app, can you please add an icon letting us know if the call was inbound or outbound (maybe an arrow pointing up or down).
Also, can you please add the calls duration in minutes. I had this feature on a WM5 device, and it was very handy. Maybe a single tap on the call could drop down a small window showing the call duration, date and time, and a double tap could make the call.
Thank you again for a great product!
Scott K.

Recent list not empty

Hi,
when I'm cleaning my recent list (all entries!!), I still have one entry listed when I hit 2 times the home button.
How can I clean this recent list also?
I checked the internet and all tips & tricks, like deleting the contact entry and re-adding it, did not help.
thx!
Alexander

Your iPhone call recents and the recents when you double click are two different recents. Clearing the phone recents doesn't clear the app switcher recents. See this earlier thread on the subject.

How to distinguish numbers in "Recent" list

Is there a way to distinguish the number in my recent list? Let's say that I have John Doe's work and home number in my contacts. In my recent list, it does not say which number was used. If it had a designation behind the name, i.e., John Doe (H), John Doe (W), John Doe (C) it would help me. Can this be done in some way?
Thanks!

If it is a call that you actually received, the phone number that they called from will appear in blue in the contact screen that shows after the blue arrow. If it is a call that you missed, the phone number that they called from will appear in red on the contact screen that shows after the blue arrow. When either of those contact screens show any other phone number that you happen to have for that contact continues to appear in black in the contact screen.

How to delete an individual file from the'Recents' list on an Android tablet? Not the original file in the documents library.

I have a samsung note 8 tablet. I used to be able to delete files from the recents list, but don't know how to do it in the newest version.

I don't think you can remove just one file from this list.

Can I remove a SPECIFIC file from the "Recents" list?

     As far as I can see, Adobe Reader for Android has only the option of clearing ALL the files in the "Recents" list. It doesn't have the option of removing a specific file from the "Recents" list.
     Maybe I'm just missing the option I'm talking about or Adobe Reader doesn't really have that feature.
     Sensible answers to my question will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I assume you can delete the complete list, not the single file ...
