Major Issues With Contacts

I'm extremely frustrated right now. The contacts on my Z10 have been messed up and no matter what I do to try to fix them, nothing works. Contacts are going missing, they are being merged with other contacts, their names are inexplicably changing and my setting for notifications always switch back to default. I put everything back, and it all starts getting screwy again within hours.
I'm running the latest official 10.1 release from Bell. My situation before was that all of my contacts sync with my Gmail Contacts, and this was working more or less fine. Facebook would sometimes override information with the stuff it had, but besides being a little annoying, I could always unlink the profile if I wanted. Since I updated and installed Skype (I uninstalled the Skype preview app and the problem persists), Contacts will merge two completely unrelated contacts sometimes. Other times contact will disappear completely or their name will change. If I try to change it back, instead of changing the information, it creates a "local contact" link and doesn't fix the rest of the contact profile. And no matter how many times I set a custom ringtone, they always go back to "default".
I like my Z10 and I've loved blackberry for a lot of years. But if I can't keep my contacts organized and correct, the phone isn't very useful to me. Any ideas or suggestions (or at least confirmation that this is a known bug that is being worked on) would be helpful and appreciated . Thank you.

The problems you have seem to come from "mixing" the contacts from different sources.
Try to do the following: In the contact list, go to settings. Set all the accounts (Twitter, Facebook, BBM etc.) to off except your email account.
Also, UNTICK the option called "Find More Contact Details".
If you have this options ticked, it will try to "enhance" your contacts with details found in the "Cloud".
Since I have unticked this setting, I have clean contacts.

  • Tap to click not working properly in Mountain Lion. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

    The tap to click does not work with mountain lion as it did before the mountain lion install. I purchased a brand new imac in August of 2011 and got a wireless keyboard and selected the wireless trackpad instead of a mouse.  The trackpad worked wonderful pre upgrade with tap to click. Now after the install of the newest beast, I have to actually press the trackpad rather than a slight tap. I have carpel tunnel and this is causing great stress upon my hand. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

    Perhaps, I was not clear enough.
    I have an imac purchased in Aug. 2011 which came with Lion 10.6 (two uprades before mountain lion)
    Recently, I just purchased a macbook pro retina with Mountain Lion
    On my imac, my settings allowed me to "tap to click" everything EXCEPT the initial log in at the star up of my imac, again running Lion 10.6
    On my macbook pro retina which has Mountain Lion, I set up the "tap to click" option, but notice that a "hard" click was neccessary when trying to click things. I thought this was a macbook thing (my first one) so I went and upgraded my imac to Mountain LIon, BIG MISTAKE! Now both my imac AND my macbook only have limited "tap to click" options. Before mountain lion I could "tap" to highlight and select text, tap and drag, and many other thiings that Mountain Lion has disabled.
    I am truly surprised that no one has noticed this MAJOR issue.
    Is there a way to uninstall this update, similar to how on a PC you can go back to a restore point.
    On another note even the way PREVIEW has changed is less user friendly, there used to be icons on the bottom right corner of the screen, now I have to double tap and select the option I would like to switch between contacts and thumbnails. This is really annoying and is causing me time when reviewing files.
    Just in case anyone was wondering, I did go to system preferences -> trackpad -> select tap to click
    In fact almost all of the trackpad functions have been selected.

  • I am having major issues with links in keynote! Even though the links (a navigation system) are on the master page, they are only working on some of my slides. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this or similar issues? Help!

    I am having major issues with links in keynote! Even though the links (a navigation system) are on the master page, they are only working on some of my slides. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this or similar issues? Help!
    I have created a navigation system on the master pages and set the presentation to links only mode. I also have other links scattered throughout the program, like a linkable table of contents, etc. Some of them work, some of them don't. Not sure why. Anyone out there having similar issues? Or have any idea on how I can solve this issue? Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Links should not create any problems in Keynote.  If they are set up correctly on text, the text will be underlined. Objects that have links will have a curved arrow bottom right, if you click the arrow a popup will display the link information.
    Try this repair for Keynote,  ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:

    delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application

    empty the trash:  Finder > Empty Trash

    Shut down your Mac, wait 30 seconds, then power on the Mac, immediately after the start chime, hold down the Shift key
    When you see the grey Apple symbol and progress indicator (a spinning gear), release the Shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, then hold down the Shift key again as you click Log in.
    4  
    Let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive

    when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and click  repair disc permissions

    when complete, restart the Mac normally, Apple menu > Restart

    install Keynote from the Mac App Store
    let us know if this helped

  • Having major issues with InDesign CS6

    Having major issues with InDesign CS6. Not only is it crashing, but it is corrupting the existing file.  Then when I relaunch, it is not allowing me to open the file again.
    In another instance, yesterday I opened an file created 3 months ago and it allowed me to make changes, however I could not save them to the existing file, or not even to a new name.
    I had to copy each layer on each page to create a new document.  NOT GOOD!!!

    Yes, I would certainly get the latest update. That we often solve issues like these, for this is not normal. Some further tips would be quite InDesign, then to trash your InDesign preferences and then re-start InDesign (it will rebuild them again). Some further areas to look into would be:
    * Corrupt Font(s) (or corrupt font caches - see below)
    * Corrupt Image(s)
    * Power Failures (power surges)
    * Placing images via drag-and-drop from an Internet page
    * Working on an InDesign file over a network or on a remote server
    If all else fails, we as Markzware (I work for them) also offer a Service to fix corrupt InDesign documents. See:

    Hopefully this helps you.

  • Major Issues with Premiere Pro CC

    I am currently having some major issues with Premiere Pro CC running on my macbook pro(specs below).
    I am trying to export a 4 minute video using the vimeo 1080p export settings as I usually do, and it takes about 10 hours to export the video. On cs6, a similar project would take 5-10 minutes.
    Also, the video that was exported contained a lot of clips that came out choppy and low quality.
    I am currently on the phone with tech support, and they cannot seem to figure out what is wrong.
    I have seen a few post about CC having issues with amd cards, but nothing has been confirmed yet.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated since this job is past due due to these issues.

  • Major Issues with iPod Touch - Please help!

    Hi, I am having major issues with my iPod, and nothing seems to be going right. It all started a few days after I got it for Christmas. I would wake up, and my iPod would be completely discharged even though it had a full battery and was turned off. I woke up one night and found that it came on all by myself. I sent it into iPod, and they sent it back saying nothing was wrong. Since I got it back today and within six hours, I have had four software crashes to the point where I have had to uninstall iTunes and restore factory settings four times. I am now on my fifth crash, but this time, the screen won't even come on. It keeps saying that it is in recovery mode. I simply went to turn it on! Does anyone have any suggestions? Personally, I think there is a short, and that I need a new a replacement. However, it doesn't seem like Apple is very supportive of the idea. I go through all of their steps over and over and over, and the same thing happens! What is going on? Please help.
    Marie

    sounds like, for the charging problem anyways, that you are just putting ipod into "Stand by" mode... press and hold the power key for about 10 seconds and an option to power off will actually come on.. if u just press it and let go, it just goes to stand by.. i have noticed stand by drains my battery
    also, it doesn't sound like a short to me... the charging i am pretty sure is bc you are only putting it into standby however, the rest sounds like software.. did u try and restore using itunes or did you just reset the factory defaults?? Plug it into itunes and click restore under the ipod menu...

  • 10.6.2 - Major issue with 8800gt

    Hi, I've got a Mac Pro Early 2008 with 8800gt.
    I just updated to 10.6.2 and I have been experiencing major issues with nvidia 8800gt: my mac don't boot. When I push the power button, nothing appears on my monitor and I can hear the 8800gt fan @ maximum speed. It seems there's no disk activity, too.
    I've tried to remove the video card and start the mac without it: now I can hear the Hard disk run, but obviously I can see nothing on my screen.
    any suggestion?
    thanks,
    Luzio

    I can't count how many, but a good 5-10% of the problems with updates are due to a lack of pre-update maintenance.
    And you can't rule out what or why if you don't have 10.5.8 and/or 10.6.1 on another hard drive to see what is wrong. You can't navigate from a DVD.
    And you can't boot from a DVD if the hard drive directory/catalogue is severely corrupt. Which your situation suggests is the case.
    Unplug your hard drive.
    Boot from the DVD
    Install Mac OS to another drive.
    Never go without working backups and emergency boot drives.
    It is normal for 8800s fan to kick in for half a minute during startup to cool it down and expel any heat that may have built up. So it suggests the 8800 is working properly.
    Backups PREVENT problems. As does Disk Warrior (best used with SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner).
    Of course if you have a 2nd 'spare' video card all the easier to troubleshoot and rule out what the cause is.

    Apple recommend calibrating the battery when you buy a new Macbook and then every few months, or monthly if it used on mains all the time. This, as Apple says is to keep the battery operating at maximum efficiency. When the battery discharges and shuts the macbook down, it still has reserve power for a good number of hours. There is also a logic board battery to hold various settings.
    I rather think I will take Apples advice on using their equipment not yours, but I would be intrigued to discover what is it you know that Apple doesnt about its batteries?

  • Major Issues With My 4s

    okay so my iphone has been giving me major issues since i got it exactly one year ago.
    my iphone:
    -black 4s 16GB Verizon iOS 6.0
    Issues
    -my caller id on other phones comes up as "blocked" or "restricted" unless i dial *82 then the number i want to call. verizon tells me i do not have "caller id blocking" turned on
    -when i receive a text message or imessage the incoming number shows up as 82 then the number (ex. 821234567890) instead of the contact number. when i slide to reply it insists on creating a new message, not adding to the conversation already in the messages app.
    when i first received this phone, purchased from verizon on the internet, i was unable to activate the device. when i took the phone to the apple store, they told me it was set to vodafone (british?) but somehow verizon support was able to activate the iphone. because of these problems ive had to save contacts in my phone with their regular number for texting (ex. 123-456-7890) and their number with *82 (ex. *82 123-456-7890) for calls, so my caller id shows. Siri will not dial numbers that start with * or #, making the feature basically useless.
    does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this or do i have to buy a new phone (which i don't really want to do).
    thanks in advance,
    john

    i dont have that option all that shows is,
    [my number]
    calls
    [reply with message >]
    [tty           off]
    [change voicemail password]
    [dial assist     off]
    dial assist automatically determines the correct
    international or local prefix when dialing.
