Messaging and Contacts Display Issue

Hello,
Having a problem where contacts are appearing as numbers instead of the contact name in the messages page. I have contact and it still says, "(xxx) xxx-xxxx."
I've deleted the messages, deleted and added the contact, removed the 1 before the area code from the number, and none of this has worked. This is a non jailbroken phone. Anyone else had this problem with a solution? Thanks!

I have the same issue.
I was abroad and made some calls to a contact.. Now that I am back in my country I have the problem that the number is not recognized as my contact number.
Does any one knows what is happening??

  • 10.5.3: Clamshell mode and 1080p display issues fixed?

    Has the clamshell mode issue and 1080p display issue been fixed in 10.5.3? Are you able to shut your laptop and use 1080p on an external monitor without the **** thing freaking out?

    Me and hundreds like had the issue when we upgraded to 10.5.2. It is a known but bug that when you start up the system an external display wouldn't be recognized in calibrated profiles (only at 1440x900). A work around was to start up then close the door immediately or boot up without external display connected and connect when completed booted.
    I was told by support in Jan that there would be a fix in the next release (10.5.3 I presumed), but after installing it I have the same problem and the release notes don't mention it as repaired.

  • Why do we have separate apps for phone, messages, and contacts?

    I'm trying to reduce the number of apps that I need to run, and this one just boggles my mind.
    Why do we have separate apps for phone, messages, and contacts?
    The messages is to tightly coupled to the phone, that it doesn't make any sense for them to be separate.
    The contacts app is nothing more then looking at the contacts from the phone app.
    What's the story here?
    Does it have something to do with the contacts also being part of email app?
    Actually, that's my other biff... why are they entangled as such?
    Phone contacts should have phone#, email contacts should have email addresses.
    If you want a contact to have both phone# and email address, then the two apps (phone/email) should be combined.

    The contacts app is nothing more then looking at the contacts from the phone app.
    What's the story here?"
    The forums would be full of people complaining that you had to go through an additional step ( opening the phone app) to get to contacts.  I use the contacts app from the home screen far more often then I use it in relation to calling someone.
    I like the way it is far more than the way you propose.

  • Lost photos, messages and contacts when syncing!

    Hi, I used my iphone 5 for about a week and had a bunch of photos on it.  I then went to sync and it erased all my new photos, messages, and contacts and replaced with my old ones from my iphone 3.  How do I get them back?

    You did more than sync the iPhone since photos/videos in the Camera Roll and Messages are not included with the iTunes sync process.
    The first time you connect a new iPhone to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or set up the new iPhone as a new iPhone. The former option replaces the data on the new iPhone that is included with the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device followed by a sync matching the sync settings for the other iPhone or iOS device which is included with the backup. This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone, not days or weeks later. 
    The latter option doesn't transfer a backup for another iPhone or iOS device allowing you to make the selections that you want to sync under the various tabs for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. The settings, Camera Roll, and Messages are not touched.
    If you didn't import the photos from the Camera Roll prior to choosing to transfer the backup for your iPhone 3G or 3GS to the new iPhone, the photos, messages, and contacts manually entered on the iPhone over the last week or so are gone - replaced with the backup for your iPhone 3G or 3GS.

  • Ovi Suite Syncing Messages and Contacts

    I have Ovi Suite installed on my desktop and laptop and both computers are not syncing contacts and messages, just keeps saying syncing messages do not disconnect, I've turned off the phone and back on again and sometimes that fixes the problem, turned off and on bluetooth and sometimes would fix the problem also but now whatever I do does not work. Also tried connecting via USB cable. I have also tried repairing, deleting the device on the phone and even gone back to Nokia PC Suite 7 and still nothing, can someone help me out here please?
    Thanks

    Well for anyones information. Syncing with ovi suite.
    I have successfully got ovi suite working.
    For those with problems this is what I did. I have vista.
    1. I uninstalled all programs from nokia.( ovi suite using the online uninstaller. Pc suite using the installed uninstall program.
    then i ran pc suite cleaner.
    2. using search for nokia then using advanced search for all nokia folders remaining (important to use advanced search or you will miss some of the folders and files. Then deleted them. Some you may have to change the user permissions to delete them. It is important to delete these as they hold data and i think might be one of the conflicts stopping sync working.
    3. Delete any remaining files except bookmarks pics etc.
    now there should be nothing on the pc.
    Then download and run ccleaner. Cleaner and registry.
    Reboot pc
    Then download ovi suite.
    A wizard might pop up but if not start ovi suite and connect your phone. I turned bluetooth off and used usb.
    The phone will download settings. You can select pc suite on the sync settings in the phone. not ovi.com.
    the program is good and worth the trouble. It saves your messages and contacts as well as syncing contacts and calendar with your required program, also bookmarks can be saved with firefox and explorer in your phone folder in favourites. It creates the folder. To transfer bookmarks from pc to phone ensure they are in this folder.
    This took me a lot of reboots and time with a few calls to nokia and i am still waiting for their callback!!!
     It also works fine on my xp computer too.

  • Ipod Calendar and Contact Sync Issues?!!!

    Quick note:
    Itunes 7.6.1
    Ipod 1.1 (latest)
    OS X 10.5.2
    Hi guys,
    I have a 3rd generation ipod nano (4GB). It has been working fine since January but it has had trouble in the last month. I noticed about two weeks ago that my ipod nano had no contacts and no calendar events on it. I went into itunes and it was set to sync all contacts and calendars. It just wouldn't sync them. The ipod had over 2GB available free space. Software is all updated.
    Unclicking and reclicking the settings didn't work, so I did unset and unplugged, etc etc. Nothing worked.
    So I reformatted the ipod completely. That fixed the problem for awhile but not a week later it's started up again. when I go to my ipod it says it can only sync 21 of my contacts because:
    "Only limited portion of your contacts could be loaded due to the amount of content on this ipod."
    The ipod has 2.5GB available this time! None of the calendars are synced at all. It syncs my music no problem..
    So what the heck is going on and what can I do?! I'm out of ideas.

    This is a known issue with the current iPod nano firmware. Nothing is going to 'solve' it but an update from Apple. However, it's not nearly as serious as it seems. After you sync your Calendars and Contact (and Notes, they are affected by this issue, too), they often will not appear, but a simple reset will always 'refresh the iPod's memory'. (And you do that by turning the hold switch on and then off, and then holding down the centre button and menu button simultaneously for about 10 seconds until the iPod reboots.)
    This is not actually an issue with Contacts or Calendars failing to sync. It's an issue with the iPod failing to recognise that they've been synced. A simple reset always solves it in my case and many others.

  • When displaying PDF in IE9, get blank error message and black display

    Frequently when attempting to load PDF pages in IE9, I get an error message box with no text and an OK button and the display of the document is just black.
    Usually, if I click Reload enough times, eventually it will display.  What is happening here, and why is there no message in the message box?

    I doubt if you facing the issue documented at http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-opens-grey-screen-browser.html
    Though, the blank dialog box can be a result of multiple versions of Acrobat and Reader. What is the version of Acrobat/Reader you have, btw?

  • Messages App Window Display Issue

    Upgraded to Mavericks on mac desktop and Messages doesn't display multiple chats in same window with sidebar. I have to click on the user name to view chat, it replaces the chat that was previously in the window.

    Ahhh,
    That or rather those betas.
    Did you provide Feedback on the issue ?
    I Shut Down my computer each night.
    Last night I left two Finder windows open.
    In addition the Login Item for my account mounts and opens two more windows for Drives on another computer. (there now being 4 windows open at the end of Start up today)
    One of these was for the folder ~/Library/Messages.
    This was behind the two fro the Drives.
    I went to select the windows to close them but was not very accurate and the Messages window that was behind the two for the Drives did relocate itself to where I had drag across the Screen.
    I was aware that I did not make a good distinction between a Left or Right Click although no Contextual Menu showed up.
    I was aiming for the red button on the top window, missed and sort of slide off to one side, which seemed to think I was doing a Click and Drag.
    I have tried to repeat this with no luck.
    Whilst I might have a quirky type similar issue in the Finder I have no hint of the issue in Messages.
    It might be interesting if similar apps have the same issues.
    FaceTime uses the IMAgent and the SOAgent helper apps along with Messages.
    The Game Center and the above apps can all have login issues which suggests links with each other. However this tends not to be an multiple window app.
    A Browser could work as a Multiple window app.
    Many graphic apps work with Multiple windows.
    There are areas that people could try out in these respects.

  • IPhone in lost mode, if a person guesses the 4 digit passcode can they see/send messages and contacts etc?

    I have lost my iPhone. Someone has found it. I got an email message when they turned it on and called it immediately. Unfortunately they turned it off, after the first call and now it goes straight to answerphone. It has been in lost mode for three days. My question is simple, if the person guesses the four digit passcode, can they send/see text messages and emails, can they see contacts etc. Do they need my apple id and password to access and use the phone or simply the four digit code?
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards.

    Yes, i appreciate that. I do hope they don't, however the passcode is VERY simple... If they guess or if it was actually taken by someone that knows me or saw me enter the code, then can they use the phone normally once it's entered, will i get an email or will the phone come out of lostmode on the app? Sorry for the repeated question. I will shortly hit the 'this solved my question' button
    Thanks again

  • Mac applications have blurry/fuzzy fonts and other display issues

    About two days ago my MBP display started acting funny. To start, I noticed my itunes font started going blurry. The words in Word are fuzzy as well. Other apps like firefox and safari I can read just fine. Next, I noticed this (http://i.imgur.com/Hfhq0.png) happening. When I move a window in any application the window would automatically start getting larger. Next, this (http://i.imgur.com/6ySCT.png) became an issue. Notice the white at the bottom of the box. Finally this (http://i.imgur.com/wYdUe.png) reared it ugly head in firefox. I have no idea what's going on. Other forums and google have been no help at all and you guys are my final hope. If you need any more information please let me know. Thanks in advance for saving my baby.

    OK I don't use a two-button mouse but control-click brings up that window for me and it displays fine just pulling the background image as the border with no white space ...
    I'd guess it's something related to the background image you're using, have you tested the effect when you go back to a plain colour or an Apple supplied background ? What format is the image you've set as background png, jpg or something unusual ?

  • Unwanted messages and contacts

    Ok, so I recently updated skype, etc and have merged it with my msn account. I also use Mac OSX, if it makes any difference.
    The past few days, when I sign into Skype, I get messages from a yahoo account and an msn account:
    [edited for privacy]
    They've also managed to add themselves to my contact list, despite me not accepting them as contacts, and deleting them every single time. The option to block these contacts is also unavailable, so I am unable to block or report these accounts, excepting by mentioning them in here. 
    I have EVERYTHING set to contacts only, and my status is not broadcasted online, so by my reckoning, I shouldn't be receiving anything but messages from contacts. If anyone can suggest a solution to this very annoying problem, I'd be very greatful. Else, I'm going to have to go back to Mac Messenger for now, or just give up entirely on messaging.

    I think most of this Scam & Spam is directly from Skype, they mabe get money for it. Something like ADs messages from those spammers, or i dont know. Its obvious they wont do anything against them so they must work together.
    Moderator Note: The accusation, above, is unfounded and not true.  As a VoIP provider, Skype has nothing to gain from participating in such schemes.
    by the way, does the Block & "report for abuse" checkbox do anything? Why is the need to send extra an EMAIL to [email protected]? I dont get it, what is the checkbox for then? Why make it so complicated for ppl to deal with skype scam... this program is so bad, i still dont understand why this crap ever became so popular.

  • Phone, Messaging and Contacts

    I often receive text messages and wish to return a phone call instead of a message. I have not found a way to do this easily with iPhone. I also cannot start a Contact entry with details from a received Text message or Phone Call.
    Are there ways to do this without having to manually re-enter phone numbers?

    Just look at the top of the text you received and you'll see a button labeled "Call". There's also a button to see "Contact Info" if that person is in your contacts, but I don't know if that button is there nor what it shows if the person is not already in your contacts. Perhaps it is an "Add to Contacts" button in that case (this goes to part of your second question).
    As for creating a contact from a phone call, just go to "Recents" and tap the blue triangle next to the call. You'll see several buttons, including one labeled "Create New Contact" and one labeled "Add to Existing Contact" for when it's a number you don't already have for a contact you do already have.

  • PC suit does not displays messages and contacts

    I have Nokia N73 and I have installed Nokia PC suite which displays my images and videos but not my contacts and messages. When I open my contacts in PC suit it displays error that Refreshing contact list fail and during synchronizing PC suite gives warning that your mobile phone is not responded. Please tell me possible suggestions to solve this issue.

    Not sure if you've still got the problem, but try the Nokia Suite Cleaner and check the Owner permissions on the user profile in C:\Users or C:\Documents and Settings and its subdirectories.
