My contacts are only showing phone number, all my contact info is missing
Help! I received a text and it only showed the number, I recognized it being my sisters number, but then I looked at my favorites and all the names started disappearing one by one, now I only have number and no contacts except my google contacts. Help!!
Do you maybe have your contacts separated into groups? If so, perhaps you have unchecked the group that the missing contact are in.
In the Contacts app, click the Groups button in the upper left corner. Make sure all groups have a check mark next to them.

HT1642 iTunes and Contacts are only showing illegible characters
I must have deleted one of the system fonts! Now iTunes and Contacts are only showing illegible characters.
Is there any way to restore them? I migrated my old data from an old iMac to the new one, at one point it did ask about a font not being compatible or something, and i guess i made the wrong choice and deleted it/disabled it.
at the moment iYunes and Contacts only show illegible characters in the menu bar.thanks for the suggestion! i tried that but it didn't work. I ended up downloading iTunes again - the fonts were then restored in place again too. Thankfully that seemed to do the trick for Contacts too. Phew!
thank you again -
My iPhone contacts are only showing email address and not telephone number
I have an iPhone 4S running OS6. For some reason of late my contacts are only displaying the email address and not the telephone number.
I have repowered the phone a number of times but the issue still persists.
Can any one tell me how to fix this ???Hi Kimberly,
Try the following:
1. Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive
2. Check where the Start New Conversation From is set to. If it's not your number, select your number.
If the above doesn't work...
1. In Settings > Messages, tap on iMessage to turn it off.
2. Reboot phone and after the phone restarts turn iMessage back on.
Hope those help! -
Can anyone tell me why all of a sudden ny contacts are only email contacts and all my telephone numbers etc have disappeared?

I have an I phone 4s and I have many contacts in my phone. However, when my phone rings or I receive a message. The phone does not show the name of the caller. It only shows the phone number that is calling. I am sure this is a setting problem, but I have checked every setting I can think of. Any suggestions??
If you are a Verizon user try this:
Open the phone and dial *228. This is a Verizon over-the-air programming number.
When the system answer press 1 for "Program or activate your phone"
Wait for the call to disconnect. You should get a prompt stating "Settings updated."
Double tap the Home button to bring up the recently used apps list at the bottom. Locate the Phone, Message, and Contacts apps, swiping if necessary, and press and hold until they jiggle then press the red minus sign to stop them.
Wait a 3-5 minutes.
Try your phone again and see if it's fixed. -
I'm only seeing my contacts phone number instead if their name when I get a message. How do I get it to show their name?
I did that but nothing has changed. I only have a few contacts. Messages just showing numbers. If I start a message with a name it pulls it from somewhere but then changes to the their number

HHow can I restore names of contacts to my messenger app. I updated my iPad air to 8.0 and it changed it.
Are the contact details in your contacts app, the phone app uses the contact app to put names against telephone numbers.

Some of my contacts are NOT SHOWING in my 'all Con...
I just bought an Android tablet today and added the Skype App to it. I can log in just fine but for some reason several of my contacts are missing. They are in my contacts on my computer but all but five of them are missing from my Android including my daughter. Help! I have no idea which version of the Skype App I am using because I can not figure out how to look that up. I assume it is the most recent version since I just downloaded it today.
You can't see them in what 'music file' ? If you mean your computer's iTunes library then have you copied all of it from your old computer : iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer, or copied it from your backup of your library ?
You might be able to redownload your iTunes music purchases (depending upon what country that you are in and if it is still available in your country's store) via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page. If music shows there but not all, then check to see if any is hidden : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases -
I had to reset my phone and now when I text my contacts are not showing up
I had to reset my phone and now when I send and receive text messages it is not showing the contact name only the phone number. Help.
This is a HUGE iOS bug.. Following a tip from another poster, I was able to fix the issue (temporarily).
This worked for me on Verizon.
I dialed *228 on my Verizon phone. I pressed "1" to activate it over the air. I then went into task manager and killed all the running apps.. Waited a few minutes.
The next text I got displayed the number correctly!.. Until I rebooted, that is.
PLEASE, call Apple and speak with a senior engineer on this. They can't fix it if they don't know it's a problem! (800) MY-IPHONE -
I had back my contacts but now i restore my all contacts are not showing
i had backup my contacts two times on icloud at 13/11/13 then replace my iphone . now i restore my contacts from icloud but my contacts are not showing.
Did you sync your contacts with iCloud on your old phone by turning on contacts in Settings>iCloud? If so, are you contacts on icloud.com when you check using your computer?

In messages contact name not showing, just number??
When I open messages it only shows the number of my contact not the name of the person. It appears it only does this for contacts that I have used iMessage with??
Exactly the same problem...

My messages won't say the contact name only shows the phone number, how do you change this when the contact is in my phone under that number already?
I thought that at first, but I have text this person before and had received responses in a timely manner. Its just weird that it all of a sudden removed their name.
Would this affect the delivery of the text message? -

All of my contacts are not showing up
Once I updated my phone to to iCloud, now all of my contacts are not showing up in my contact list but if I type in the number, they show up. How do I fix this?
I also have this problem, just from the iPhone 5s which makes my life crazy, too.
The problem of having multiple devices doesn't seem to help, but the odd part is when everything I am doing is correct, it still doesn't sync like it used to do before iCloud, and when we had to USB wire connect the iPhone to the Laptop to make contacts sync.
Might I add that I am not using MAIL on my LAPTOP?
but ?Britty sounds like her issue is easier as gmail sometimes can create duplicates so you are in good if you are not having that problem or nightmare...
IF ANYONE ELSE can PLEASE ADD to this THREAD? I would be thankful
as there seems to be a TRENDING on iPhone 5s not syncing with other devices or backwards.....(I have added contacts to the iPhone 5s and they never get added to the iCloud or the iPad or the Addressbook or CONTACTS on the LAPTOP....
This should be working and I have checked the CONTACTS on the laptop GROUPS , iCloud, vs ALL ON MY MAC
it just isn't syncing and in some cases I am getting a WEB DAV error or CAL error...-1
what is that? iCloud will not sync all contacts?
something is crazy
but I want to remain at 10.8 MOUNTAIN LION and not upgrade to MAVERICKS......or use MAIL on my LAPTOP...just CONTACTS ONLY...... -
Outlook 2010 contacts not showing phone number in Lync 2013 client
Hi,
We have Lync 2013 with Exchange 2010. Recently we started upgrading Lync clients from 2010 to 2013.
A few users started reporting that their local Outlook contacts does not show phone numbers in Lync 2013 (working with 2010)
I have installed the august patch which should solve this issue
981751 - Lync 2013 does not display telephone number of an Outlook 2010 contact in the contact card
Any idea where to look next?Hi Tobias Borgen Nielsen,
Lync expects all the phone numbers to be in the E.164 format, meaning they should be +1-111-11111111 etc. If they’re not like this, you will have to normalize them if you want Lync
to publish them.
