[iPhone SDK] Reproducing Contact's "disappearing" search bar behavior

hi there,
my app is very similar to Contacts app, but unlike the Contacts app, i can't get my app to get rid off the search bar at the top when contact names are flicked through.
when contact list is not in search mode i set search bar as a header for an empty section at the top of a list. when it goes to search mode, i tried to remove search bar from table view and set it as a sibling of tableview.
any suggestions on how to get this going? thanks.

I don't think you can do it this way. Instead, try making the first viewcontroller the root controller, then in the last one, use viewWillDisappear to call popToRootViewController.

  • Restoring iPhone 5 causes contacts to disappear.

    When I restore my iPhone 5 from my computer, the contacts at the start all appear from my last backup then after few seconds they are removed. i have restored the phone many times but the same problem occured. Please help.

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.

  • Iphone 4s my contacts have disappeared

  • My contacts keep disappearing

    Ever since I upgraded to iOS 7 (I have an iphone 4s) my contacts will disappear every so often.   The first time they disappeared was of course when I upgradd to 7.  Apple, how hard is it to keep the contacts and retore them after an OS upgrade?   And now, my contacts seem to disappear every week, with NO input or change instructed by me.  I have just reclaimed my contacts tonight after what is perhaps the 4th time they have disappeared, by going to settings/contacts, email, and selecting download SIM contacts.   Come on Apple!   This is stupid!  

    I have the same issue on my 4S and they disappear randomly. I have tried to hard reset with the home and sleep button and that does not work. Restoring is the only way it works but I dont have my MAC all the time and I do not use icloud. Is there is any solution to this? my warranty is over and there is not clear solution to this other than taking it into APPLE to complain but it is no longer under the 1 year warranty.... ***** help..
    This started only when i upgraded to iOS7. Not cool Apple....:-/

  • My music store search bar randomly disappears ever since installing IOS7 on iPhone and Ipad.

    When using the "Store" link in the to left corner of the Music App to go to the music store to make a purchase, my music store search bar randomly disappear.  This started after installing ios 7 on both my iPhone 5S and Ipad.  When this happens I am unable to search for music to purchase.  App Store search bar for actual apps seems to work fine.

    Same here. I'm guessing what may have happened is that the HTML page in the app or the content on that page may have only partially loaded, and unfortunately there is no way to trigger a refresh of that page - either through any user activity like reopen the app, or any refresh button.

  • Search bar disappeared from Contacts

    I thought this new feature was going to be really useful but now the search bar does not appear when I open contacts?
    Is anyone else having this problem?

    I had this too. But then I realized that the search bar is the TOP of the screen. Scroll way up to the top and you'll find it. Kinda weird that it isn't persistent.

  • How can I get a search bar added when trying to archieve emails in my IPhone's email app?

    My IPhone email app is connected to my Outlook email system in which I have many archieved folders, when I want to place an email in my archieved folders on my IPhone I have to scroll a long list of archieved folders to find the right one, how can I get a search bar added to find it easier? My colleague' s Samsung has that function already and can't believe that Apple can be behind Samsung on this.

    You probably will not be able to get a refund. The iTunes Store makes it pretty clear that gifts are redeemable only in the same country, and the terms of sale say that all sales are final. But you can contact the iTunes Store and ask:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
    For future reference, you will not get responses from Apple to any question you ask in these forums. We're all just fellow users here. And you posted in a forum for questions about the Communities themselves. You usually will get the quickest and most applicable answers if you ask in the forum dedicated to the product or service about which you are asking.

  • Some contacts have disappeared from my phone contacts. They are still in the phone because if someone calls me their name appears and if i search in text for contacts they are still there - but if i search in phone contacts they are not there, Help

    Some contacts have disappeared from my phone. Not all just random ones. They are still in the phone because if someone (who has disappeared from my phone contacts calls me their name appears and if i search in text messages for contacts they are still there - but if i search in phone contacts they are not there, Help!

    But once again, I do not want to lose my other texts, app progress, and photos. I could sync the photos but i would still lose the app progress and texts. I would only restore if it was the only option left, but the other space, as already stated, isnt the main concern. The main concern is those 'deleted' texts. If they go, then a good size chunk of the other space goes. I know you CAN delete texts for good. It worked fine before. All i want to know is why its not working for me now, and how to fix it.
    I also know that when you delete texts on your iphone, they get marked for deletion, however they stay on your device (thats why they show up when you search for them.) then when you sync your device with itunes, the texts marked for deletion should disappear. When i synced they didnt disappear. Thats what i need an explanation/solution for. Why the texts marked for deletion didnt get fully deleted after the sync.

  • I just backed up my 3gs iphone using itunes.  All my photos and contacts have disappeared from my phone.  I am unable to locate them on my computer.  HELP!!!

    I just backed up my 3gs iphone using itunes.  All my photos and contacts have disappeared from my phone.  I am unable to locate them on my computer.  HELP!!!

    OK, I understand.  Try this ... it's much safer.  It will simply restore your backup, but not do anything to your iOS:
    While your iPhone is plugged in to iTunes, right click on the iPhone icon on the left side of the iTunes display.
    Choose "Restore from backup ..." from the pop-up menu that appears.
    Again, what this will do is place that backup back on your iPhone without changing iOS.  So you should be very confident in the backup contents before doing this.

  • Hi - When I go into Contacts and type a letter in the search bar to get to last names that begin with that letter I get a list of random names that don't correlate to the letter. My settings are fine.  Help ?

    Hi. When I go into my contacts and type a letter in the saerch bar to get to a list of last names that begin with that letter I get a list of random names that don't begin or end with the letter.  My Settings appear fine.  Any insights would be greatly appreciated.  Cheers Bill

    The search bar is not designed to take you to names beginning with the letter you put in. If you want to do that, use the letters down the side. In the search bar, the device will return results for all contacts that have that have that letter in them. If you type a couple of letters of the name, you'll find what you want faster. Once you get used to how it works, it's quite efficient.
    Best of luck.

  • IPhone contact pictures disappear once i use safari browser

    Can anyone help with this problem... I assign pictures to my contacts. When I use my iPhone safari browser, or use any internet apps, the contact pictures disappear. What is going on? Thanks.

    ckent007,
    What version of the iPhone software are you using?
    Are you saving the contact pictures (by tapping done in the edit contact screen) before you go to the home screen and use another application?
    Hope this helps,
    Jennifer B.

  • In OS X Mavericks using Safari, the search bar at the top that i had on the previous system disappears only reappearing in the full screen. Do i have to go into full screen every time? Bit of a pain but no doubt I'm doing something wrong!

    In OS X Mavericks using Safari, the search bar at the top that i had on the previous system version disappears only reappearing in the full screen. Do i have to go into full screen every time? Bit of a pain but no doubt I'm doing something wrong!

    Those are all fine
    Here is how to see RAM overloaded…
    Reboot to see the system in it's default state.
    Open TextEdit for the sake of it
    Open Activity Monitor & Terminal from /Applications/Utilities.
    Select the Memory tab
    In Terminal enter the following command
    memory_pressure -l critical
    # note that is a lowercase L
    RAM usage will climb, compression will begin the VM will become way more than the system has installed.
    Eventually the system will start swapping  (look for RED) - Watch the 'memory pressure' & 'Swap used' as this happens.
    Try switching to TextEdit - the system is still coping !
    Switch back to Terminal & hit ctrl+c to stop the process.
    Watch the VM & memory pressure return to normal levels.
    This OS kicks 4ss !
    Your problems may lie elsewhere
