Making contact card name clickable?

I've asked this to some of our internal folks who said it's not possible, but as I search around, it seems like it should be!
When I hover over someone's name in Outlook, the business card pops up. Currently the name of that user is not "clickable" - I can only highlight/copy, etc. I have seen examples where these names can hyperlink to user profile sites. It looks like
it can be done via registry setting?
I'd love the chance to prove the naysayers wrong - can anyone help?

Hi,
In Office 2013, you can customize Contact Cards to turn off certain features and specify where presence icons are displayed. For the
Contact tab on the Contact Card, you can replace labels and values. For your reference:

Merge iPhoto name with Address Book contact card?

I have a lot of pictures named on iPhoto under faces. But then I just put some contacts in my Address Book and I wanted to know if theres a way to merge the Faces name and the Contact Card. Or maybe if I can just rename all of the Faces at once under one person, and change them to the contact card name? P.S. I am currently running Snow Leopard. But i I need Lion for it, I will be biying it tomorrow anyways=) Thanks anyone who helps!:D

Oh wait! Nevermind! I found I can just rename it! I'm a little new to the Mac:P

Double-clicking on Sender name to view full contact card

Just upgraded to Outlook 2013 with Lync 2013, and so far I hate it. In Outlook 2007, when I opened an email I could double-click on the sender's name and pull up its full contact card with all of the information that I had entered before, including
their picture or company logo. Now in the 2013 version, I get some light-weight pop-up showing some of the sender's info and either no picture or the picture that they included in Lync. Is there any way of restoring the full contact card? Also,
is there any way to get the Reading Pane to show by default the picture that I assigned to that contact?

Hi,
When I click on the sender's name in an email, it opens the Outlook Properties dialog instead of the full contact editing form.
If you want to open the full Contact Form in Outlook 2013, you can click on the View Source link of the Contact Card, and click the source
Outlook (Contacts, your email address):

Adding link to the photo and Name in the outlook contact card -Enterprise wide

How can I make the name and photo in the outlook contact card link to my profile page? I read articles where it is mentoined that the URL is set in Registry, currently my organization does not have any link associated with photo and name in contact card.
I want to implement this across the organization , any deployment or changes that I need to do to implement this across?
Appreciate if you can provide details on how this is done. The url will look like this:
https://www.produrl.com/userid={userid}
How can I dynamically add respective userid in the link?Appreciate your response on this.

So you want to redesign the contact card in Outlook? Are you using SharePoint? If signed into sharepoint via the social connect, there is a link to the mysharepoint page under View source. I don't think you can change the link or customize the card,
beyond what is listed here:

Recently my contact card was changed to make my name into a vulgar statement.

Recently my contact card was changed to make my name into a vulgar statement. I only noticed this when I went to go send an email, and the incorrect name popped up. There is a SLIM chance someone hacked into my contacts since everything is password protected, but I guess I need to know if there is any way that a virus/hacker went into my contacts to mess with me. That seems unlikely as it was just my contact that was changed, but I still need to know. I recently updated my computer software to mountain lion, and I also updated software on my iphone. I was wondering if any of that might have made that change?

Your device was not hacked as it is not possible unless the device is jailbroken.
More likely someone has gained access to your iCloud account (assuming that is how contacts are synced to your device) and changed the information to mess with you. This could also have been done with physcial access to the device or even access to the computer if it is set to save passwords.

Somehow a new contact became associated with my email. Now all my email has her name on it. This happens only on my iMac, not on my other Apple devices. I have removed my email from her contact card and deleted her from previous recipients on Mail.

Check the settings in the Accounts for Mail.
Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Click on your email Account in the left column > What appears under Full Name in the right column?
If that is the incorrect name you're describing change it to your correct name.

Mispelled name appears in Contact card hover pop up

Hello
this is outlook 2010
I created a new active directory user account for Anne   but left the "e" off of couse she wants that E
so we renamed her user account and put the E back in..........
but we notice that on her emails doesnt matter if her email address in is the to, or from , it now is spelled correctly BUT if you mouse hovers over those that darn "contact card" pop up comes
up and still only says ANN not ANNE
how do I correct this ??    thanks

Ok folks thanks for the help.... everything is now updated and "most stuff" is now correct but here is what still needs fixed when examining her account ( account settings --> change) in the change account window where it shows
server settings..... in the "Type the user name for your account" field it still says ANN (last name comma first) still says Ann not Anne
all the email stuff is now correct even when seeing the Mouse Over Hover Card......... EXCEPT when she prints out an email
when she prints one ,     her name is still ANN   you know how you get a thick black line with your name at the top of the printed email page (like a header ?    ) ...up there she still gets ANN
where is that being pulled from?? is that linked to this User name field the server setting window ?? and if all has now need updated in my Ad and on the exchage side..then why does this files never changed ??
As an experiment yesterday I had the exchange admin change my name and that change was reflected everywhere   ( like in the GAL)   but for me also , the username field in the server setting window never changed and
if I print an email is still says the old name not the new one
so I am now looking for advice on getting her name correct when prining out emails
thanks

Contact card in mac messages not showing picture

One of my contacts in Messages on Yosemite just shows the initials instead of their contact picture.
When I click on the name in the right pane in Messages, I can select "Show Contact Card".
The Contact Card also shows the initials in place of the contact image.
In the contact card, I click Open With Contacts.
The Contacts app opens and shows me the user's address book card, which shows the contact has a picture assigned.
The user in Messages is referred to by their email address *****@aol.com.
The email address and phone number for this user do not have duplicate entries in my contacts.
Other users do not have this issue.

The user had more than one instance of the same email. Apparently that confused Messages. When I removed one of them, the image showed just fine as expected.

Contact card in a Word comment shows an unknown presence status

Hi,
The contact card shows an unknown presence status for myself. I noticed this issue when I was adding a new comment to a Word document. My picture isn’t shown on the card either.
While not a major issue, I also noticed that the contact cards for the file's author and last modifier are broken in all Office apps. However, I'm signed in to my Office 365 account in all Office apps, so it looks like that Office isn't
linking my contact details with the online account. Also, my own picture isn’t visible in the user details (in File>Account).
The option "Always use these values regardless of sign into Office" is unchecked in settings. Skype for Business is installed and running in the background. I guess all these issues are related to each other but the main issue
is the broken contact card for a comment.
My colleagues have the same issue (tested with three other computers, one of them was purchased recently). All computers are running Windows 7 with Office 365.
Could you help me to solve this issue?
Ps. I was referred to this forum from the Office 365’s forum – that thread has some screenshots and testing results: http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/172/t/345224.aspx

Hi,
Based on my research, it shows Presence Unknown status if there are multiple users with same display name in the Address Book. We can try right-clicking the Author and select Edit Property, and then selecting the correct name from Global Address
Book.
Please let me know the result.

Link to User's MySite on Lync 2013 Contact Card does not work

Hello,
we're running a sharepoint 2010 environment with a configured user profile service application and a mysite host. we're also running lync 2010 clients but are planning to upgrade to lync 2013. the it guys (including me) have already installed lync 2013 client.
the lync server is also already on 2013.
with the old 2010 lync client, it was possible to click on a name from a lync contact card and this directed to the users mysite, which was great. to archieve this, we updates the wwwHomepage attribute in AD with the corresponding link for each user to the
mysite.
now with lync 2013 it is no longer possible.
i couldn't find anything about this topic ...
any help would be highly appreciated
kind regards
Marco

I tested it in my lab.
The same result with your.
It is by design.

Normalization rules seem to be used but ipPhone telephone number not appearing in contact cards

We keep our CUCM-style telephone numbers in the AD ipPhone attribute. The format is 000-0000.
I have added a normalization rule to Company_Phone_Number_Normalization_Rules.txt to make these E.164-ish and to add a prefix (3) that we use to route calls from Lync to CUCM.
Testing both with abserver.exe and observing a trace, the rule is being applied correctly.
args[1]: 824-2072
824-2072 -> tel:+38242072
    Matching Rule in Company_Phone_Number_Normalization_Rules.txt on line 19
        ^(8\d{6})$
Component: ABServer
Function: Contact.AddAttribute
(ABServer,Contact.AddAttribute:contact.cs(317))(0000000036D00C4F)Id: 13 Name: ipPhone Value: tel:+38242072
However, I still don't see this +38242072 in the contact card.   I tried looking in the rtcab.dbo.AbAttributeValue table and I also don't see any ipPhone (ID 13) values there.
I looked in absconfig.exe and the "Include phone number value that is currently present in AD for the phone attributes" option is selected (first choice).
Should I instead be using "Use normalization rules and include normalized number"?

There are still a few folks where the numbers aren't being published as expected. To review, we have this normalization rule:
## Company_Phone_Number_Normalization_Rules.txt
## 824-2072 -> 3-8242072
(8\d{6})
3-$1
and these two users (LDIF format):
dn: CN=User with incorrect Lync contact data
telephoneNumber: +1 (123) 456-5009
otherTelephone: +1 (123) 456-5009
ipPhone: 810-5009
mobile: +1 (123) 533-5009
dn: CN=User with correct Lync contact data
telephoneNumber: +1 (123) 456-5034
otherTelephone: +1 (123) 456-5034
ipPhone: 810-5034
mobile: +1 (123) 533-5034
The "good" user ends up with this "other" attribute (as seen from a dbimpexp.exe dump:
<phone type="other">
<readOnly>true</readOnly><displayString>810-5034</displayString>
<uri>tel:3-8105034;phone-context=enterprise</uri>
</phone>
The "bad" user ends up with the E.164 number repeated.
<phone type="other">
<readOnly>true</readOnly>
<displayString>+1 (123) 456-5009</displayString>
<uri>tel:+11234565009</uri>
</phone>
Where else should I be looking to figure out this inconsistency?

Telephone numbers (officePhone and homePhone) are missing in a contact card in a Lync Server 2013-based Lync mobile client

In my opinion, the error has not completely fixed in KB2967628. After I install the latest November 2014 cumulative
update. I see the following behavior. User A searches for user B. User B never sign in to the Link. There are three fields in the active directory for User B: officePhone, mobilePhone and homePhone (these fields contain different numbers). When searching on
the mobile client (Android/IOS) for user B – as result user A see only mobile number. If User B At least once will go to Link (sign in) when his search will work, (find officePhone). If User B will change, the privacy settings for user A is in the search will
be displayed homePhone field.
On the Desktop client,
I can find all the fields without those actions performed in the example. If I make a request
to the service UCWA manually like this (below
the text) before
actions, which I performed in example, I did not receive officePhone and homePhone – only mobilePhone field.
GET "https://lync.domainname:443/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/XXXX/people/search?query=$usename$&limit=200" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Authorization: $USENAMETOKEN$"

Hi,
Based on your description, I’m sorry I’m a little confused about the following you mentioned. I understand the issue is we can only see the mobile number in the contact card on Lync mobile client and that we can search for users based on their office number,
we can see the home phone field in the contact card but there isn’t number showing. I anything I have misunderstood, please feel free to let us know.
“When searching on the mobile client (Android/IOS) for user B – as result user A see only mobile number. If User B At least once will go to Link (sign in) when his search will work, (find officePhone). If User B will
change, the privacy settings for user A is in the search will be displayed homePhone field.”
According to the KB29677628, this issue is caused by UCWA only sending the work number, and we need to install the update for web components server
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2967628/en-us
August 2014 Cumulative Update 5.0.8308.738 for Lync Server 2013, web components server
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2937297/en-us?wa=wsignin1.0

Siri NEVER works with relationships and my contact card

Siri works just fine on anything that does not involve accessing my contact card. That is, these commands work:
"Call [Persons's Name]"
"Remind me to buy batteries"
"What's the weather"
"Whats my schedule like?"
But if she has to access my relationships, "sorry, something's wrong" immediately. These won't work:
"Call my girlfriend"
"[Person's Name] is my father"
"Remind me to buy batteries when I get home"
"How do I get home from here?"
Things I've tried:
Toggling Siri off and on
Turning phone off and on
Switching to a new contact for "my contact info"
Removing and re-setting up iCloud
Resetting network settings
And many combinations.

Yes, I read the entire thing. It is dealing with a much simpler problem. I'm well aware that I can edit relationships from my own contact card. And how to adjust Siri's settings to use my contact card.
What it doesn't explain is why, no matter what, Siri will not even make an effort when given any task that would require accessing my contact card (which is where my relationships are stored).
So, yes, Siri knows which contact card is mine, and yes, I'm aware that my relationships are stored in there.
Quick scenario to explain:
Let's set my contact card in Siri's settings to a NEW contact, with no info but a name.
"Siri, [Person X] is my mother"
"Sorry, Something's wrong..."
Or, let's set my contact card in Siri's settings to a full contact card with a home address and a person set as my "mother":
"Siri, how do I get home from here"
"Sorry, Something's wrong..."
"Siri, call my mother"
"Sorry, Something's wrong..."
In any scenario, the text is being properly transcribed. But Siri doesn't know what to do with it.

Can't add Custom Image to Contact Card

Just upgraded to Snow Leopard. Noticed that when making up a new contact card, I can't just drop an image (somebody's face) into the Custom Image box anymore. The box lights up -- highlighted in blue -- but it won't accept the image. Any ideas?

Similarly, I'm on 10.6.2. Since Snow Leopard came out, I have been unable to add/edit any "Custom Images" in my Address Book entries. Everyone in my AB is stuck with the image they had in my Leopard Address Book. Looks like there's several threads on this, but no great (i.e. Apple-fixed0 solution I've seen so far.
What does work for me now is:
1. going to the Finder,
2. select the Address Book application (make sure the app isn't running),
3. Get Info
4. Select the "Open in 32-bit mode" checkbox
5. Open the Address Book app, and begin editing images

Stack overflow exception when selecting the Organization tab on a contact card

I have encountered a reproducible crash in the Lync 2013 client. The crash happens after selecting the "Organization" tab when viewing a contact card.
The crash appears to happen because of a stack overflow with MSO.DLL. I have applied the latest hotfix for that module but the crash persists.
Before I open a case with MSFT, can anyone offer any insight? Perhaps this is being seen elsewhere?

I actually think I may have figured this out. I took a network trace during the crash. What I found is that Lync is performing repeated LDAP searches over and over until it crashes from the stack overflow. Digging into
the searches, I found the same two user CN's being alternated one after another.
It appears that this crash may be the result of a "Circular Reference" where the two users are each listed as the others manager in their user object.
Example:
User1: Manager = User2
User2: Manager = User1
Proving this as the cause will take me some additional time as these two users are at the top of the Org Chart. :)
I'll update this post with the results when I get them.
