Moutain Lion and Contacts pictures!!

how to add a picture to contact? Mountain Lion before there was a choice in head shots listed in iPhoto or Aperture!acts

To use photos with contacts in Mountain Lion....
Open Contacts and select contact you wish to add photo to.
Press contact edit button at bottom of Contact screen
Double Click on the photo place holder in the contact's info
Select "Recents' from the menu that opens...
Go to iPhoto (Best to take iPhoto out of full screen mode and resize iPhoto so you can see both contact and iPhoto on same screen)
Drag and drop a thumbnail photo (Not a full sized photo) from iPhoto onto the blank little placeholder squares in the "recent' window in Contacts.
A green Plus sign will appear next to your mouse ponter.
Drop photo in that little window.
Now you can edit/resize photo and add it to your contact.

Nokia E52 display caller's name and contact pictur...

Can someone advise me on possible problem with my E52 - I am very pleased with most aspects of the phone but it is not showing the name of the caller or the contact picture when I receive a call (just the number).
Surely it is standard for every Nokia phone to show name of caller? I know S Ericsson phones show name and picture for both call and text. Nokias should at lease display the name?
Can anyone please advise on this?
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

generally this is the cause have a look here it might help some more
you can take out sim card and see if you do have your contacts still on phone also

Moutain Lion and FCS2

My old MacBook pro just died on me with a logic board fault. If I get a new laptop with moutain lion on it have I any hope of getting Final Cut Studio 2 to install on it? Am I better getting the board replaced and carrying on with my old machine and what are the chances of finding a new machine with Snow Leopard on it?
Thanks

Can't connect to one POP3 account after installing Moutain Lion and Mail 6

I use Mail 6 as my client to connect to several POP accounts. Just one of them won't work. I can make it work in Thunderbird. The account name has an explanation mark in a circle icon next to it. When I click on that I get: "The server returned the error: The server “pop.mycompanyserver.com” cannot be contacted on port 995." I've tested all of the settings and contacted Enterprise IT. I think it may be something about autodiscovery. Is there something I can manually change on my end? Thanks.

Nope. Didn't work. My company IT told me to get lost, but I'm pretty sure it's a problem at their end.
Nevertheeless, maybe this will help in getting to the bottom of this: when I delete the account and then go into Mail>Preferences>Accounts>Add Account, I type in my e-mail and password and it searches for a server that matches. It finds something called autodiscover.companyname.net, which it calls an"Exchange server," but it fails to login, saying the email address or the password entered may not be correct

Sharing file between moutain lion and lion

To share files other MACs running Mt. Lion, you simply turn on AirDrop. Without an internet or intranet, can you, and how do you share files between MACs running Mt. Lion and Lion? How do you share files between Mt. Lion and any other older versions of OS X?

Here is a real-life example. My principal home machine is a 2011 Mac mini running OS X 10.8.3. My work laptop is a 2010 MacBook Pro with Lion. On the laptop, I enable File Sharing (afp) and export a project folder from the MacBook Pro and mount it on the desktop of the Mac mini.
Now, I can be more productive across two large monitors with the same applications and data; without concern for synchronizing final content. In my case, the work files remain on the laptop. Moving files between machines is a simple Finder operation.
WIthout a network, you can create your own with a length of CAT5(E) or better cable connecting each Mac Ethernet port. No need for a router in this (temporary) case. The alternative to this is a USB stick or where both machines have a reader, an SDHC data card.

Contacts and contact pictures

I have a Blackberry Curve 8530 series through Sprint. Fairly often, I will assign a picture to a contact and it will stay there a few days, then all of a sudden that contact no longer has a photo assigned to them. When it happens, one time it was every contact that had a picture, but all the other times it would be just one particular contact. It is never a Facebook issue or anything either because 2 of the contacts it happens with don't even have any Facebook or any other account linked to my phone..
Also, recently phone reset a few of my contacts all together. It both deleted their pictures, and it reset their numbers. For example. a friend of mine got his number changed nearly 3 months ago. I deleted his old number out of my phone and replaced it with his new number. All of a sudden out of nowhere 2 days ago, I was calling him and it kept going to another person. Finally I looked at his contact profile and realized that his new number was no longer there, and instead his old number was there... I had just viewed his contact profile 2 days before this incident and his new number was there, because i read it off to another friend..

Isn't there ANYONE that can provide advice on this topic????????????

I updated from Snow Leorard to Moutain Lion and now my internet will not recognise my password. All other comps use the network but my Mac upgraded Mac Mini keeps coming up with either 'timeout' or 'user or password not recognised' ...help!

Hello all
I upgraded from Snow Leopard to the latest Mountain Lion OS and now my Wifi will not work. When I try and insert the password to my Wifi network states either 'connection timed out' or 'password and/or user name not recognised' please help...!

Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
Restart the router. Many problems are solved that way.
Step 2
Change the name of the wireless network, if applicable, to eliminate any characters other than letters and digits. You do that on your router via its web page, if it's not an Apple device, or via AirPort Utility, if it is an Apple device.
Step 3
From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts.
Step 4
Back up all data.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.
Step 5
You may need to change other settings on the router. See the guidelines linked below:
Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
Potential sources of interference
Step 6
Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.

HT5364 I installed OX X Moutain Lion and now I have trouble printing pdf documents--get messages like "plug in failed" or "no pages selected on printer" when clearly pages are selected

I installed OS X Mountain Lion on my desktop MAC and since then I cannot print pdf documents---I get messages like "plug in failed" or sometimes "no pages selected on printer" when clearly pages are selected

DO NOT USE PREVIEW TO FILL OUT PDF FORMS, IT WILL DESTROY PDF FILES. Sorry, but I had to shout here to prevent damage to your PDF files.
Here is one of the symptoms when you fill out a PDF form with Preview: If you save it and return it to the author, they will not be able to see the text that you've added to form fields - unless they click on a field, which will reveal the contents of just that field. You can recover from this problem, but Preview will also remove other field types, and will actually rewrite your complete PDF while ignoring what it does not understand. Take a look at this blog post for more information about the damage that Preview will cause: Preview.app - Killer of PDF Files

Some of my bookmarks are not working in my safari browser after dl of snow leapord, do i need os x moutain lion and maveriks?

Bookmarks are not working properly, example: bank of america, and lumosity. How do I download OS X Maveriks if I just downloaded snow leopard?

First of all make sure your download is complete. If you bought the disk that gave you Snow Leopard, it would probably have been 10.6.3. That means you need to download and apply the 10.6.8 Combo updater and do some software updates too.
Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
Then check that your machine is capable of running these higher OS's
Apple - OS X Mavericks - Read the technical specifications.

Why does mountain lion mix up my contacts pictures?

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion my contact pictures are getting mixed up (on all my iCloud devices) without I have layed a hand on them!
Now, wrong pictures appear all over my contact entries.

Try removing the "com.apple.LaunchServices.plist" preferences file in addition. This one contains the custom file and URL handler links for the various programs you have installed, and is what is set by the Safari and Chrome preferences to set the default Web browser.
After you have removed this, log out and back in to your account and try again, but in addition, do keep in mind some of your other custom document/application associations may need to be reset.

HT1386 I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S). I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone. But not sure how to do that.

I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S). I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone. But not sure how to do that. When I open iTunes it has a button that say "Back Up iPhone", but I'm not sure what that does. When I go into the sync options it say I have another user account and asks me if I want to merge of replace. I'm assuming it's trying to tell me I have an older iTunes Library, but don't know that. Geez, maybe people over 60 shouldn't have iPhones, iTunes just bafles me.

How to sync calendars and contacts between ios 3.1.3 and Mountain Lion?

I have a 1st generation iPod touch under iOS 3.1.3 and a MacBook Pro under Mountain Lion 10.8.3 with iTunes 11.0.1.
Since the upgrade to Mountain Lion syncing calendars and contacts between the iPod Touch and the Mac no longer works.
I don't want my personal information in Apple's or anybody else's Cloud and anyway iOS 3.1.3 can't use Apple's Cloud.
So I can no longer sync without a) replacing my iPod Touch which itself works perfectly well and does not need replacing and b) using Apple's Cloud which I do not wish to use for personal data.
This is a MAJOR AND DAMAGING step backwards by Apple, which they should correct IMMEDIATELY if they wish to keep their increasingly fed-up older customers.
Time-wasting work-around:
As I never trust operating system upgrades to not destroy something that "just works", I have Snow Leopard still on another bootable partition on my machine, and Lion on a bootable partition on an external Thunderbolt disc.
In order to sync, I backup Calendars and Contacts under Mountain Lion under which I do all my normal work, switch to either Snow Leopard or Lion, update iCal and Address Book from the backup files saved under Mountain Lion, sync the iPod Touch, and switch back to Mountain Lion.
Lots of time wasted with 2 successive re-boots, but at least HERE IS A SOLUTION THAT WORKS - I have seen lots of posts protesting bitterly about this totally unacceptable backwards step - what on earth do Apple hope to gain from this? More sales of newer equipment to replace perfectly functioning older ones? Certainly not from many of us.

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

I upgraded to Lion and now my iPhoto won't open and I don't know where my pictures are

I upgraded to Lion and now i don't have Iphoto anymore. Where did all of my pictures go??

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

I have an iPhone 4 that i was trying to fix and now it will not turn on at all is there anyway that i can access all my pictures and contacts from my new phone or pc? It is also on the same apple id, but i dont know if that would help with anything.

I have an iPhone 4 thats i was trying to fix and now it will not turn on at all is there anyway that i can access my pictures and contacts from my new phone or pc? Aslo the are both on the same apple id but i dont know if that would help or not.

Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.
