Issue with number/contact details showing on new iPhone

Hi I'm having an issue with numbers. Myself & my mum both have iPhones. My Mum had previous phone (not iPhone), she purchased an iPhone & ported her old number across. before she ported we were texting each other on the new iPhone number. Now she has ported her old number to iphone, when she texts me it still shows the number she got with iphone, not her contact name or original ported number which I have saved, however if she calls me it does show her contact name & not the number. When I text or call her contact in my phone she does get it, however message sends as txt message not iMessage (iMessage is active on both phones) hope this all makes sense. can anyone help at all?
Many thanks

Swipe down from the middle of the screen to open Spotlight Search then type Contacts. If it is in a folder the folder name will be to the right of the Contacts listing in search.
By default it is in the Extras folder on the second page.

Frequent issues with the contacts

Hi,
Everyday I face issues with the contacts. It does not search the contact I wanted to look and stuck on the first page of the list for few seconds and then move to the searched contact. But when I open that contact, it shows the contact details of first name of my conact list, not the one I searched. It is irritating and happens everyday.
Only way to resolve this is by restarting the device or power off and ON it.
Does anyone face this. Is there any solution availble for this issue.

I am a real estate broker and I have 1200 contacts and when I transferred the contacts from my old BB Torch to z10, the transfer was successful and all my contact fax numbers are listed as fax. BB has announced that they are going to have USB Outlook sync in the future release of BB link. I am eagerly waiting just like you, it is important part of my business and online cloud sync is not an option for me. I currently email my contacts from my desktop to my z10 as a .vcard and update any new contacts.. Same with the calendar. You can also save it on your sd card. A temp solution until the feature is available. or use outlook.com or other cloud service.
To add a fax to your contact, open the contact in edit mode, click on add field and select fax.. You also have a choice to set fax work, home , direct or other.

Issue with Google Contacts : birthdays not synching correctly

I have an issue with Google Contacts synchronising to my iPhone. For some reason, the birthday on the iPhone uses the previous day for displaying the birthday.
For example, if I put the birthday of December 30, 1987 for a contact using the online Google Contact manager, it will sync to my iPhone correctly as as December 30, 1987.
However, if I update the contact on my iPhone (change address, add website, change phone number...), the birthday jumps back in time 1 day (in our example it jumps back to December 29.
If I edit a contacts details on the iPhone both Birthday and Anniversary skip one day back in time after the Sync occurs. This will happen every time I edit the contacts details so if I start on e.g the 30th of Dec after one edit the date will be the 29 Dec then after another edit the date will be the 28th etc...
I can then edit the date(s) in Gmail Contacts and they will sync correctly back to my iPhone. Only when I edit a contact on the iPhone will the date(s) skip a day back.
The region of my iPhone is set to "Belgium"
Timezone is set to "set automatically"
How can I solve this conundrum?

Have you checked your time zone within your Google calendar settings? (http://www.google.com/calendar/) It's just an idea ...
I myself found several issues in syncing my contacts with Google (over the air via ActiveSync / Exchange on iOS4 as well as using the API within Address Book / iTunes) with truncated names (e.g. prefixes and suffixes) and re-arranged addresses (german scheme vs. US-scheme: post code, state) and can't recommend the Goole services for users outside the U.S.

Having an issue with Searching Contacts -IOS8 iPhone 5S - MS Exchange

When I search for a certain Contact by name EX: John Smith, I would get Jon Smith about 10 names down and others appear before him at the top of the list. When I click on the other contacts you can see his name in the contact notes which I guess is why the others show up. EX: Jon Smith Referral in contact notes of Jane Doe.
I only want the contact search to show the the specific person I am searching for. I do not want other names to show up along with the search. Is it possible to have the contact search ONLY look at the First/Last Name and no other info?
Hope that makes sense to someone out there..... Cant find an answer ANYWHERE.
Thanks so much!

Thats exactly what I want it to do. Say for example I search Smith I will get about 25 people, and Smith is somewhere linked to it in an email thread, contact details, or something like that, no relevance in the First Last or Email. I do not understand how the contact search is even coming up with this many results. I can confirm this is only using the contact search and not Spotlight or anything like that. I seem to be the only person in the universe which is having this problem, I deleted my MS exchange account and re-added it, factory reset the phone. No clue where to go from here. Lol my only work around that I have found for now is if I just say the First name and last name to Siri she will come up with the contact details I need for that specific person. Driving me crazy!
PS - Thank you for trying, much appreciated that you gave it a shot to see if you could make it happen for you!

Issue with Repeat Contact Info in Edit Screen

Hello!
I recently had to get a replacement for my Droid because the home keys stopped working. My replacement Droid was acting buggy and the screen would black out anytime I'd check voicemails and sometimes after placing a phone call. I called customer service today and the tech support guy had me do a factory data reset on the phone. Before I did it, I was instructed to export my contacts to my SD card, which I did. The screen issue seems to be resolved, but I have an issue with my contacts now. If I go into a contact and hit "edit contact", it will display three to four Google contacts for one person! Also, if I try to make a shortcut to direct dial a contact, it has the same contact and phone number listed 3-4 times for every phone number listed. (For example, my parents home phone is listed three times and so is their cell phone number.) Anyone know how to get rid of the repeat contact info? I have tried resetting the phone again, as well as separating contacts individually to no avail. Any help or advice is appreciated!

Here are the steps for deleting duplicate contacts. HTH!
From the home screen, touch the applications tab (located on the bottom of the screen).
Touch Contacts.
Touch the Contacts tab.
Touch Menu.
Touch the desired contact.
Touch Menu.
Touch Delete contact.
Touch OK.

Textboxes, widget, layers can be used to be anchors :
a textbox: eg "Get in touch" http://web.me.com/julianneef/Testsite/Home.html#id15 (The textbox with "Get in touch" had an identification number in source: id15)

CSV to Excel 2013 - Issue with number format

Hi,
I use Excel 2013 to manipulate CSV files. I experienced issue with number format cells. In my CSV file there is one column that presents latitude values in format: 52.05456464. When I open my CSV file in Excel 2013 all values in that column get separator
".", in this case my number is present like this: 52.054.454.464. I tried to change my cell format, and when opened the category was Number, I change it to the General but in that case I lost all "." and got 52054454464.
I also tried to open same file on other machine with Excel 2010 and file is opened correctly without issues and in cell format the category is general by default.
I hope that there is some kind of resolution for this.

Hi
According to your description, we may follow these steps:
highlight the column B > Home Tab > Number section > Select Number and choose "More Number Format" > Make sure the Negative number is chosen correctly. If you are using Custom format, we will have to change it.
Hope it helps
Best regards

I am having issues with 360 degree rotation, I have an iPhone 5 and ios 6.0.2. I have read alot about this issue online and I found out that my issue is software. I want to know if and when apple will fix this issue?

I am having issues with 360 degree rotation, I have an iPhone 5 and ios 6.0.2. I have read alot about this issue online and I found out that my issue is software. I want to know if and when apple will fix this issue?

I had the same experience with a new iPhone 5 that I bought last week. Did not have a chance to measure battery life before the 6.0.2 upgrade installed but I set up my phone exactly like my 4S and immediately started running out of power after short periods. Went to Xmas get together with fully charged 5 and 4S. Heading home the iPhone 5 shut down for low battery and the 4S had 65% power. Both phones had two half phone calls on then and no data usage.
That night I fully charged the iPhone 5 and, without lighting it up, put it on my night table. Next morning I picked it up and looked at battery indicator and I had 42% charge with NO activity!
Tried it again next night and wound up with 37% charge. (Slept longer).
Today I called the carrier and reactivated the 4S. Took the 5 to Apple Store and they kindly gave me choice of new replacement phone or refund. I took the refund. Uniquely, the Apple Store said it was Verizon CDMA phones that were coming back.
The are other strings on this with temporary solutions, but from my experience with 7 firmware changes on an HTC 4G phone the problem will continue because the solution will be hardware caused. We are in the days where RTM means Rush to Market - not Release To Manufacturing.
I fear the only solution is to either wait for the next model (I did not notice a really major change in performance over the 4S in LTE heavy Seattle area) - or switch to another manufacturer.
It might be useful for these forums to indicate if you have a GSM or CDMA phone to see which have more problems.
Discouraged....

I am having a issue with getting data useage alerts for my iphone 4s

I am having a issue with getting data useage alerts for my iphone 4s from AT&T. I do not download anything huge at all.
I looked into it and figured out that the phone dials out nightly at 12:29am every night. I went into my settings and went to general..about..diagnostics and useage..then diagnostics and useage data to see this. I then clicked don't send...but I am still getting useage alerts. Can anyone help me please...
Thanks

Honestly, from reading the thread linked, they all come off as a bunch of whiney people that cannot be bothered to help themselves.
Little to nothing in that thread indicates an issue beyond inept consumers. Yes, I read several pages on the incessant gripes. Very few made any actual attempts to troubleshoot issues before whining about the "Apple issue" and those that did actual troubleshooting got their issues resolved.
So no, Apple has nothing to fix beyond a few specific devices that are experiencing hardware issues.
If you have actually put forth effort and done the basic troubleshooting, take the device to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement. Whining will get nothing accomplished.

How do I copy my Blackberry contacts lists to my new iPhone 4s?

I'm about to acquire a iPhone 4s and would appreciate guidance on copying my Blackberry Bold 9700 contacts lists to my new iPhone. Is there a quicker way than copying the contacts to the sim card on the BB and importing them to the iPhone?

Transfer them to your computer and import them to Address Book (Mac), Outlook, or Windows Address Book, then sync them to the iPhone.

Well, first off, you are not addressing Apple here. This is a user to user PUBLIC forum. You should not post your personal information like that. Try closing iTunes, reboot the computer and connect again. Are you using the latest version of iTunes, v11.1?

Does anyone else have issues with Verizon LTE service on the new iPad?

I have the new iPad. I have noticed that issues with the LTE signal have gotten progressively worse. When my iPad is sitting in 1 spot it will switch from 3 bars, to no service, to 3 bars, and so fourth. I might be on a website, or in an app that is using data and it works great. Then at random it says No Service again. I just added my iPad to my Verizon account with their new family data plan, so they sent me a brand new SIM card. I feel like I can rule that out.
I just want to know if anybody else has an issue with their iPad dropping service at random and jumping all over the board. I also have an iPhone on Verizon and it is with me always, I never have this problem with the iPhone. My iPad will say No Service but my iPhone will show nearly full service.
Just to add, I have switched off LTE for periods of time to see if things change. (that way both my iPhone and iPad are on 3G so I can compare) Things are no different when just running LTE.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. I am under warrenty and I have Apple Care. I hate taking stuff in and replacing it if I don't need to.
I am also signed up with a developer account through Apple, and my iPad has iOS 6 beta. This problem did not start with the beta software. It was the case before and after. I guess I was hoping if it was an issue Apple would address it with one of the revisions in iOS 6, but now I am starting to wonder if it is hardware.
Thank you.
