Making a call from the contacts

MMy 4s is ******* me off. I punch the little telephone icon, thinking I'm telling the phone I want to make a call, then hit the little contacts icon at the bottom of the search page. I click on the person I want to call, but instead of calling the person I obviously want to call the **** thing kicks me into the messaging function. I officially hate it.

You can make calls from the phone icon, as well. Just click on the phone icon then the contacts, then try from there! -Darby

  • How can I get caller id to announce the caller from my contact list?

    My old Motorolla and LG phones had a setting to speak the caller id before ringing.  It took the names from the contact list or if not there would just call out the phone number and then go to the ringtone.  Does the Iphone 4 not have this setting?  I can't believe this "smart phone" which does just about everything would not have this function.  What am I missing here?

    I do have an iPhone 4S.  It does not provide a talking caller ID.  I too I'm surprised that such a feature is not on the iPhone.  There seems to be an "app" for just about everything, but I've yet to find one that does this very simple function.  There are some apps out there that do provide a form of caller ID, but they seem to require too much setting up for something so simple.  I do have a work a round, but it is a poor subsitute for what we are both looking for.  I have set different ringtones for some people in my contact list, so when I hear the tone, I do know who is calling.  However, if you have a great deal of contacts, this method really would not work.

  • Can I source an environment before making a system call from the database

    I can execute system calls from the database like
    Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("env");
    but I am unable to source an environment before making the call.
    Our goal is to from within the database to execute tkprof on a
    raw trace file then load both files into clobs in a table. We can load
    the raw trace no problem, we just cannot figure out how to execute
    tkrprof on the raw trace then load its output.
    Anyone know if this is possible to hava java get a runtime and then call
    an environment file to source the environment so that path's and other environment variables are set prior to executing another system command.

    Thanks for that...but can I do multiple edits in my Stored Procedure Vaibhav and pass back something that I can then utilize in my SSIS? For example...
    One and Only one Member Span...so I'd be doing a SELECT COUNT(*) based on my match criteria or handle the count accordingly in my Stored Procedure and passing something back via the OLE DB Command and handling it appropriately in SSIS
    Are there "Diabetes" claims...again probably by analyzing a SELECT COUNT(*)
    Am I expecting too much from the SSIS...should I be doing all of this in a Stored Procedure? I was hoping to use the SSIS GUI for everything but maybe that's just not possible. Rather use the Stored Procedure to analyze my stged data, edit accordingly, do
    data stores accordingly...especially the data anomalies...and then use the SSIS to control navigation
    Your thoughts........
    Could you maybe clarify the difference between an OLE DB Command on the Data Flow and the Execute SQL Task on the Control Flow...
    You can get return values from oledb comand if you want to pipeline.
    see this link for more details
    http://josef-richberg.squarespace.com/journal/2011/6/30/ssis-oledb-command-and-procedure-output-params.html
    The procedure should have an output parameter defined for that
    I belive if you've flexibility of using stored procedure you may be better off doing this in execute sql task in control flow. Calling sp in data flow will cause it to execute sp once for each row in dataset whereas in controlflow it will go for set based
    processing

  • Can you increase the size of the photo that shows when you receive a call from a contact

    Can you increase the size of the photo that shows when you receive a call from a contact ?

    It used to be if you added the contacts photo on the iOS device they would have a large picture and if you added it from Address Book on OS X they would have a smaller thumbnail.  However, since iOS5, all I've been able to get is the larger photo.  Try adding the picture directly in the contacts app on your device.  That should make it larger.

  • IPhone 6 seems to crash when making phone call from Mac

    When using my iPhone 6 Plus to make phone calls from the Macintosh, (initiating call from Mac Contacts app in Yosemite) the iPhone continually brings up the Apple logo and does a quick restart over and over again. The phone call, however seems to work, but it's just that the iPhone looks as if it's going crazy showing the Apple logo and then the home screen over and over again.  This had worked initially, but not anymore. Both iPhone 6 and MacBookPro up to date with updates.

    If you never find an app that will do it then you could have a go at making one yourself-I don't think you need to pay Apple as long as you don't want to sell it.

  • How to select multiple addresses from the contacts list to send an email?

    How do I select multiple addresses from the contacts list at one time to send an email. Each time I select one, the address book closes and I have to touch the "+" key to open it back to select another address. Is there a way to select all of them at one time instead of making a group? Thanks.

    Yes, once you select a person from your Contacts app, you either need to select more from the '+' button or you can tap in the 'to:' field and type in the first few letters of a contact and select from the list. Kinda bummer but gotta make do.

  • I get an error message "iPhone is already on a call" when making phone calls from Macbook Air. What can I do to fix this problem?

    I have followed the instructions exactly according to Apple for making phone calls from my Macbook Air. Im signed in to iCloud on both devices. Im on the same wifi network. Wifi calls is turned off on my iPhone. Any suggestions?

    Howdy jcannon130,
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.
    To troubleshoot this issue where your Mac believes you iPhone is still on a call while trying to make a call from your Mac, please first reset your iPhone, and then verify you have the settings configured correctly on your Mac and iPhone.

  • I currently having problems when dialling with my 4S either from the contacts list, or when using the phone through bluetooth to my in-car system. The phone becomes confused regarding what method / route of connection handsfree, normal use or speaker.

    Hi each time i use my 4S phone a dial from the contact list, the phone will not select a communication mode, either normal speaker or handsfree (car), I have to force the phone into speaker mode and the back to normal mode before I can speak to or listen to anyone. The annoying aspect is the recipient of my call can answer but cannot hear me nor I them.
    What am I doing wrong, or is there an issue with the phone. The same situation occurs when the phone is used with bluetooth in my car, the previous iphone worked perfectly can you please advise.

    Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app.  I am certain other applications also need this information.  Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information.  Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.

  • DND deny call from all contacts

    Hello there!
    I'm expecting a call from an unknoown number from a country with a completely different time zone. I want to use the DND function the otherway around. Allow me to silence all calls from my contact list, and at the same time, allow calls from unknown/blocked numbers. Is that possible?
    Any help would be appreciated!

    I'm a little afraid to sync the iPhone since I don't want to lose my contacts anywhere else.
    Address Book > File > Export > Address Book Archive...
    then you can't lose anything.

  • Sound issues making phones calls from Mac

    When making or receiving calls thru continuity on my Mac (27" Late 2013; IOS 8.1 iPhone 5S), the person on the other end says the call sounds like I'm in a tunnel, has some distortion and is at times not clear enough to understand what I'm saying.  I have used the internal microphone on the mac and have also used a "Yeti" external microphone with the same results.  I did try "Face Time" audio as a test and the sound was much improved and satisfactory at the caller's end.  There are no issues with the sound from my end sitting at the computer.

  • How do you select multiple emails from the contacts book.

    Using 10.8.4. I would like to use mail and select multiple email address' from the contacts book to send the same message to multiple persons. I thought I used to be able to select more than one at a time from my contacts book. Am I crazy or did they change the way it works from the previous version of software.
    Or, could you go to the contacts book and email from there. Either way it seems like it was easy to do and now I have to select one at a time and keep going back to the contacts/address book for another name.

    Hi shelereric,
    Once you open a new message, you should be able to just start typing the first letters of the contact's name, and Mail should give you a dropdown to select from:
    So, you should not have to go back and forth between your contacts and mail....anyone in your address book should show up on the dropdown as well as anyone you have received emails from or sent emails to even if they are not in your contacts....
    Is that not what is happening for you? Are you using the Mail app on the Mac?
    Cheers,

  • In iOS 7 you can still make calls from the locked screen. Just swipe the missed call numbers to the right. Is this a bug?

    In iOS 7 you can still make calls from the locked screen. Just swipe the missed call numbers to the right. Is this a bug?

    How is it a security breach? You're free to turn off lock screen notifications for the phone app so that no one can do that.... even if they can, they can only call the number that called you... nothing else. (well, except for 900 or whatever the emergency services number is where you are, but that's required by law).

  • Subtemplate footer is not coming when calling from the main template

    Hi All,
    The footer from the subtemplate is not coming in the output when calling from the main template. Does anybody worked on the subtemplate?
    If the same footer is put in the main template, it is displaying.
    Please respond as this is a critical issue for us.

    Hi Tim,
    Thanks for your reply. Here is syntax which I got from the Oracle BI Publisher blog. And this is to just test locally.
    http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2006/04/11?import:file:///C:/temp/HeaderFooter.rtf
    <?import:file:///d:/test/GEPOPRINT_GER_GER.rtf?>
    <?import:file:///d:/test/GEPOPRINT_US.rtf?>
    <?for-each@section:G_HEADERS?>
    <?if:POH_REPORT_NAME='GER PO w/GERMAN Data'?>
    <?call-template:PO_GERMAN?>
    <?end if?>
    <?if:POH_REPORT_NAME='US Purchase Order'?>
    <?call-template:PO_US?>
    <?end if?>
    <?End for-each?>
    And I don't have any footers in the main template but in the subtemplate I have the respective footers. If you want, I can send all the RTF's to you directly.
    Let me know.
    Thanks,
    Ambadas
