N6700 slide / Contact search in Contacts and Adres...

Hallo!
I bought Nokia 6700 slide last week. After the first setup of the exchange mail the contact search worked perfectly: when I started (in Menu/Contacts) to write a name and it was not found in contacts of my phone, nokia immediately offered the possibility to search on exchange server and in same screen returned the found contact (if any).
Now, after yesterday´s nokia sw actualization (current version 061.004, 20-Oct-2010; User version 061.004.327.02, 14-Dec-2010) this possibility completely disappeared!
When I now start to write a name and it is not found in contacts of the phone, nokia returns "(žádné shody)" (I have czech language version; in English it means something like "no records found") ...and that´s all. I must then go to Menu\Application\Email\Adresář (Adresář="Adress book") and write the wanted contact in the "Search in Mail for Exchange" field. Contact is then found (if any), so I think that my Exchange mail is configured correctly. Is there any possibility how to get the search function back as it worked before SW actualization (search in Contacts and Adress book in one step)? Thanks for any advice. Vera

Ah yes, reboot had been tried but to no avail.
Before doing a soft reset I take screen grabs of my homescreens which will make things easy to get back to how I want them.
Doing #7780 soft reset now...
...done.
Ah! Messaging threads now show my contacts and their thumbnails
Brill! Contact Search in dialler is also fixed.
@no1_slumko Thanks!! Have *stared* you.

Hi - When I go into Contacts and type a letter in the search bar to get to last names that begin with that letter I get a list of random names that don't correlate to the letter. My settings are fine. Help ?

Hi. When I go into my contacts and type a letter in the saerch bar to get to a list of last names that begin with that letter I get a list of random names that don't begin or end with the letter. My Settings appear fine. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Cheers Bill

The search bar is not designed to take you to names beginning with the letter you put in. If you want to do that, use the letters down the side. In the search bar, the device will return results for all contacts that have that have that letter in them. If you type a couple of letters of the name, you'll find what you want faster. Once you get used to how it works, it's quite efficient.
Best of luck.

How to enable categories in iCloud Outlook contacts and search option to include contacts notes?

So, I've seen various threads about iCloud not supporting categories as we know them in Outlook. Categories are kept in iCloud contacts (in Outlook) but they just don't work as they did when contacts where in Outlook's PST folder. I haven't seen that someone has found a solution to work this out without having to create groups one by one. The other problem though is that when I search iCloud contacts in Outlook, I type in a keyword and the contact with the supposed keyword in its categories does not display if the contact has more than one categories linked to it. Prior to iCloud I was able to pull up contacts by typing in a word in the search bar. For instance, I'd type in a keyword of one my categories and Outlook would display all contacts that contained the word I searched (be it if the contact contained the keyword in its contact fields, categories, or notes). Now, when I search a keyword, iCloud does not pull up the contact(s) with the specific word if the contact has more than one categories linked to it. It also appears that iCloud contacts in Outlook does not search keywords that are in the contacts' notes. Does anyone know how to get these features to work? I basically need iCloud contacts to be able to search contacts along with their categories and their notes and display all contacts that contain the word I typed in the search bar.

Hi there,
I would recommend taking a look at some of the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

I added 3 contacts and saved on my iphone 5, but do not appear on my list of contacts. the names appear when they text or call me. I have to go search for their messages when i need to call them

Try to restore your iphone via iTunes or update to ios6.1.2.
If itunes gives an error with restoring (DFU/Recovery or just normal)
try this:
open your computer and search on windows; C://windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
open up the hosts file in note pad you will see IP adresses and more add another line and put in this:
#74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
this is a by-pass to the cydia/saurik restore server, it has nothing to do with jailbreaking over voiding apple's warranty
let me know if succeeded!

Any ideas for how to sync to Exchange 2003 - contacts and calendar

Hi
I am still searching for a mechanism to give me the sync solution I want, which is as follows:
At work I have a PC running Outlook 2003 via an Exchange Server 2003 setup.
At home I have an iMac running Snow Leopard
In the middle I have an iPhone 3G
I want to sync Calendar and Contacts across all three machines.
I want to sync work email between the Exchange server and the iphone, but do NOT need this to sync on my iMac at home
That's it.
At the moment I can sync email, calendars and contacts successfully between the Exchange server and iPhone, using the over-the-air Exchange Sync on the iPhone. But sadly my iMac will not sync contacts and calendars to the exchange server 2003 as Snow Leopard only supports exchange 2007.
Ironically (because I don't need this bit to work) I have managed to get my iMac to sync with my Exchange server EMAIL, by selecting the Exchange IMAP option when setting up the mail account on my iMac (as opposed to the Exchange 2007 option). However, I cannot get iCal or Address book to sync with Exchange 2003, regardless of the options I select when setting up the new accounts in Address book or iCal. I guess these just do not work with Exchange 2003
I know that I cannot use mobileme as a solution, as you cannot have two over-the-air syncs going on, and I need to maintain my iphone link to the exchange server via activesync
I also know that using itunes to sync via the cable will not work, as this creates separate contacts and calendar files on the iphone and so does not provide the syncing solution I seek.
I have tried using google to act as the middle man between my iMac and Exchange server data - getting the iMac to sync to Google Calandar and Google Address Book, and then using a third party piece of software called gsyncit to sync from google to the .ost outlook file on my PC workstation. This works some of the time, but keeps crashing and leaving me with multiple duplicates to have to sort out - much too much hard work on a regular basis.
So I still do not have a solution. Unfortunately upgrading to Exchange server 2007 is not a solution.....
Any new ideas out there
Thanks

I don't think there will be a solution to this. Exchange 2003 just isn't supported.

I have a restriction passcode that I have no idea what the passcode could be. I know that I need to reset the phone to factory settings but how do go about doing this without losing all of my contacts and other info, etc? (mainly contacts)

     At some point, I don't even remember doing this it must have been so long ago, I set a restrictions passcode on my phone. This has become a problem now because I have so many apps that I do not ever use that take up so much space I can no longer take pictures or put more music on the device. I have read that I need to restore to factory settings but that once I do that I cannot restore to a backup because restrictions passcodes are saved in backups. Is there any way for me to restore my phone to factory settings and then get all of my contacts and perhaps as much other data back as I can? I have tried every passcode I can think of for the restrictions passcode (24 times! to the point that ever time I try and fail I cannot try again for an hour. To say the least, this is quite frustrating as is limits what i can do with my phone on a daily basis, whether it be music or taking pictures and videos etc. Can someone please help me solve this problem without losing minimal data? I have already backed the phone up to my computer as well as iCloud. Even the woman at the apple store told me I had to restore it to factory but was too busy to get further into it and I didn't have a genius bar appointment. If all else fails I can make an appointment and go in there. I just thought I may as well ask on here first to see if there was a way I could do it myself. Thanks for reading and hope you can help me!
-Mike

You can't. Restoring new means everything is erased. If you have a backup made before creating a restriction code, then you can restore that backup, but none later.
Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
   1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
       other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
   2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
       until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
              * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
       device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
       let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
       charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
       When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

I've just bought an iPhone 5S in the UK, seems like a big mistake. I have turned off sync to icloud from the phone for both my contacts and calendar, as told on itunes. However, iTunes still says they are synced from iCloud and wont sync to PC, Fix ?

I've just bought an iPhone 5S in the UK, seems like a big mistake, but luckily by law we can return goods, which is exactly what is going to happen if I cant get this to work. This is my business phone, not having it functional can cost me money.
I have turned off sync to icloud from the phone for both my contacts and calendar, as told on itunes. However, iTunes still says they are synced from iCloud and wont sync to my PC, why and how do I fix it so that it doesnt go to iCloud for anything ?
The phone currently has no contacts or calendar information installed.
PC is HP Probook 4730s running Windows 7, Professional, version 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 7601.

I'm happy you figured it out and just try to keep in mind that not everyone you talk to at support will give the same advice or have the same knowledge. Just like those who contribute to these forums. Sometimes Google is your best friend.
I agree that Apple could probably make it easier, but as of yet prefer security over freedom. (sound famaliar?)

How do we sync contacts and calendars (ONLY) between two iCloud accounts, two iPhones and one iMac with two user accounts?

This is complex. Until today we had one iMac with two user accounts - one for me and the other for my wife. We sync'd our calendars and contacts between our two user accounts using my iCloud account, thereby keeping our schedules coordinated and our contacts information always the same between us. Also, as I had an iPhone, I sync'd my phone with my iCloud account, thereby keeping the contacts and calendars in the two user accounts on the iMac AND my iPhone sync'd. (I also sync'd other things, like Notes and Mail and Safari settings, between my iPhone and my user account on the iMac, but my wife did not want to be burdened with all my emails showing up in her email account and I wasn't interested in hers, etc., so we didn't sync anything between us other than calendars and contacts.)
We've finally bought my wife an iPhone and set up an iCloud account for her. And of course she now wants to sync several items from HER account on our iMac to HER iPhone, but I don't want them, just as she doesn't want all of my other stuff. But we still want our mutual calendars and contacts to sync to HER new iPhone, just like they already do to mine. But I can't figure out how to CHANGE her iMac user account from using MY iCloud account on the iMac to using HER new iCloud account, and then having HER iCloud account speak to MY iCloud account but share JUST our calendars and contacts.
Originally I tried a workaround by simply having her iPhone log into my iCloud account. That works great for the calendars and the contacts. But...she can't sync anything else from her iMac account to her new iPhone because she's presently "forced" to use my iCloud account. And neither of us want to sync our other things to each other's iMac accounts or iPhones. Also as we're both using my iCloud account, in things like the Find My iPhone app, the Cloud is seeking two phones labeled with my name and none with her's. So we definitely don't want this as the set-up and communications network between our devices.
We want to set up our users on the iMac to sync to our SEPARATE AND DIFFERENT iCloud accounts and then have those iCloud accounts sync calendars and contacts (ONLY) between themselves, and then push that data to our separate iPhones (or the other way, from either of our iPhones to the individual accounts on our iMac and the other person's iPhone). Does this description make sense to you? I've diagramed it nicely using Keynote, but even thiough I can draw it, I can't figure out how to set up and configure all the devices to make it work. If you would like me to send the Keynote slides (just two of them - the current and desired configurations - please send your email address to me at [email protected] and I'll be happy to forward it to you.
If anyone can help me set this up I'd be most appreciative! Thanks so much. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all readers in this community!

I had the same problem, and decided to look into it last night.
First of all, the solution I would like to have is for Apple to allow for selection of iCloud accounts per application, i.e. Contacts to one, Photo Stream to another. I believe this would be the most straight forward solution for the problem we are facing.
Since this is not an option I came up with a workaround. I was most interested in solving this for Contacts, so this is what I tested for. Now I have all 3 devices with the same contacts.
1) Turn off iCloud for Contacts on all devices. On the device that has the Contacts list that you would like to propagate to all others select to keep the contacts, and on the others select not to keep them.
Note that the current backups still exist on iCloud, so in case something goes wrong you can still turn the iCloud for Contacts back on to get your current Contacts back.
2) In iTunes, sync All Contacts with the phones, starting with the one with the Contacts content you chose to keep.
From this point on, the 3 devices should sync contacts with each other.
This, of course, will stop your iCloud backups of Contacts, but I don't think this is really needed. You are already storing copies of your Conacts on 3 devices, which for good parts of the day are likely not all co-located. You also potentially have Time Machine backups turned on, which would mean there is a 4th copy there as well. For the case of Contacts iCloud only complicates matter ... that is until Apple implements the solution I first wrote about.

Issue with Contacts and Calendar on my wife's iCloud account

Hi everyone,
My wife and I have both apple IDs that we used with MobileMe. I can access mail, contacts, calendar etc on icloud.com after transfering from mobileme, but my wife only sees email. No contacts or Calendar there. She has all in her iPod Touch under her ID, and we have them all in both our Macbook Pro and iMac.
Any idea how/why the contacts and calendar does not show up on hers? We share all data, so I have no idea why one would have them while the other doesn't. Maybe because I was the first one to sign up for mobileme? I don't know.
I searched the forum but couldn't find anyone with the same issue... many with apple IDs, but nothing like this.
Thanks for your help!
David

Hi David,
I am experiencing something similar... I moved mobileme to icloud, after completion I thought everything was ok, but now after one hour all my contacts have disappeard... trying to look what's going on

I can't set up contacts and calendar for iCloud on my PC

I'm trying to set up iCloud so it'll sync my Mail, Contacts, and Calendar & Tasks between my Windo. However, the iCloud Control Panel won't let me set up the Contacts and Calendar & Tasks. When setting up, it asks me to shut down Outlook (which I do). Then it tells me that I need to restart Outlook with Mail enabled and that I need to add my iCloud account in order to add Contacts and Calendar & Tasks. I have no idea what the former means. I have added my iCloud account although what I REALLY want to sync is the Contacts and Calendar data from the e-mail I use Outlook for (which is also my Apple ID). I have Outlook 2010. Any idea why I'm getting this message and how I can set up iCloud?

Hi there bakingcountrygirl2011!
I have a couple of articles here that should help you get iCloud set up on your Windows machine. The first is about activating iCloud mail in Outlook, and can be found below:
iCloud: Set up iCloud Mail on your devices and computers
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2621
And here are the steps you need to follow:
Set up iCloud Mail on Microsoft Outlook 2010 or Microsoft Outlook 2007
Open the iCloud Control Panel, select (to turn on) the Mail, Contacts, Calendars, & Tasks checkbox, then click Apply.
To open the iCloud Control Panel in Windows 8, move the pointer to the upper-right corner of the screen to show the Charms bar, click the Search charm, then click iCloud Control Panel on the left.
To open the iCloud Control Panel in Windows 7 or Windows Vista, choose Start menu > All Programs > iCloud > iCloud.
Your iCloud Mail account is displayed in the left column of Microsoft Outlook.
To view your iCloud Mail account in Microsoft Outlook, click the disclosure triangle to the left of your iCloud email account.
If you are still having issues with your contacts after following the instructions in that article, you will want to see this article, about troubleshooting sync issues with your iCloud contacts:
iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Contacts
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3998
You will also probably want to pay special attention to this particular part of that article:
Ensure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook.
For Outlook 2010, follow these steps to verify the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active:
Open Outlook 2010.
Click the File menu.
Click Options in the left panel of the Outlook window.
Click Add-Ins in the left panel of the Outlook Options window.
Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins," and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed
For Outlook 2007, follow these steps to verify the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active
Open Outlook 2007
From the Tools menu, choose Trust Center.
Select Add-ins from the left column.
Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins," and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
For additional information about managing Add-ins with Microsoft Outlook, see this Microsoft support document.
Hope that helps. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

What's the best way to resolve duplicate contacts and batch edit?

Hi.
I need some advice. I want to consolidate my contacts, remove duplicates, add tags, and then sync them across applications (Addresbook, Gmail, Yahoo Mail, etc.) going forward. I'm finding many challenges and it seems there's not an easy way to do it.
Addressbook
* will not let you go through and review/edit/approve how it resolves duplicates
* manually finding/fixing duplicates is tedious - there's no drag and drop from one contact to the other
Yahoo Mail
* will let you review/edit duplicates
* has a tedious interface and requires importing/exporting files
* when adding a new contact doesn't always let one add a group
* no longer has a "find new contacts" feature that would auto populate new cards - so anyone's address that I rely on auto-fill from recent will not have a card yet
Gmail
* I don't have any contacts there yet.
Palm
I originally had all my contacts in Palm and there's a lot of old "X-Palm-Category1:" etc in the notes, which actually make good tags, but are hard to edit to something like "tag:business". I can if necessary try to use Palm desktop 4.
Bento
I have Bento 3 and I've tried using it to clean up some of my Addressbook contacts and start "tagging" my contacts to make searching easier. The problem there is that I can't find a way to batch process contacts. I also can't seem to add line breaks in the notes. So in Addressbook I can add tag:123 and tag:456 on separate lines, but not in Bento so any AB card edited in Bento shows it as tag:123 tag:456 on one line
Excel 2004
I have exported most of these contacts into Excel spreadsheets. (Bento will export the Apple AB into a spreadsheet). Attempting to compile and clean data in spreadsheets has it's own set of issues. In particular, the data are not laid out in columns that can be easily copy pasted into one template. For example, Yahoo contacts allow the label for the phone number to vary for the phone column instead of putting home, work, fax, and mobile numbers in separate columns.
iPhone 4
I also have an iPhone but it oddly enough doesn't display any smart groups, and it doesn't even display the phone's default "unsorted" folder. I can only find a new contact added from the phone after syncing it back to the MBP and looking in a smart folder I made for it.
Other than hiring a data entry temp to fix this as a project, can anyone think of something that I could use/do to make this easier?
I would appreciate any and all suggestions.

I found out I sometimes have three or even four versions of the same file.
How did you find that out?

I had two numbers for one of my contacts and I deleted one because it's no longer in use. But why does it appear when I type in the name (when starting a new message) with the word "other" next to it?

And how do it delete that "other" number entirely from my phone? I've tried deleteing the contact and adding it in again, but it still appears
Also, on an unrelated note, my phone tends to turn off at 10-7 percent. How can I fix this so it turns off after 1 percent? (the phone doesn't turn on after it turns off by itself unless you charge it)

1. Don't wait until your phone completely discharges before charging the battery. To help with the battery percentage reset your phone. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
2. The phone remembers recently used items in addition to stored items. So the contact you want to delete is presently in the recently used category. If that phone number is not used it will eventually disappear from your phone. Patience IDs the key here.

Contacts and Calendar Server, Pointless?

Hello!
MLS N00B here, not really much experience with ML Server. Only had it a few weeks, and the new Profile Managaer instead of WGM thing really messed me around, seems unstable and a little too new.
Anyway. Todays discussion comes in the shape of Contacts and Calendar server. What are they actually for?
Profile Manager pushed a payload to all users (by default) so they know where the calendar and contacts server is. This seems to be a side effect of activating the services in the Server app. However, the client computers don't actually seem to use them in any way.
No contacts, not even the Directory contacts (searching via directory is enabled) are visible in the Contacts app. Nothing 'network' based in calendars either.
Group calendars are also a mystery to me.
My question is. Where would you create a 'Group' based contact list, or a 'Group' specific calendar? and make them available automagically (using PM) to all users within that group?
I've tried creating Wiki specific calendars and assigning the correct groups and permissions, but I can't see how I'd get them in to iCal. I've even tried adding extra iCal payloads to the groups in PM and using the URL field - still nothing.
Any help is welcome, thanks guys

The 'server' Contacts and Calendars services in OS X server don't work the way you would expect — like the functionality you would see on a server app like Microsoft Exchange. That is that various users can have shared resources and/or you have server owned resources that you then make available to users/groups with individual, fine-grained permissions.
You can have 'shared' server Contacts & Calendars in OS X Server but what you have to do is setup a (dedicated) user account on which you then create various calendars and address book(s). Then in the Calendar & Contacts apps on OS X and iOS you make accounts on the clients and use that pseudo account on the server as the account — not each individual users' account on the server. So each (real) user 'shares' the pseudo user's account with, obviously, full read-write access.
It ain't beautiful... but it works.

Contacts and calendar showing double - because of MobileMe?

I got mobile me and the contacts and calendar updated wirelessly as expected, however the last time I plugged in my iPhone to my computer, the iPhone synced with all information (contacts, calendar, itunes, photos, etc.) and now both my contacts and calendars are showing double on my iPhone. Is there a way to fix this?
the calendars show two boxes on my iPhone: "From my Mac" and another "(email)(Mobile Me)". I assume this is why there are duplicates, however I do not know how to delete or get rid of it. I thought Mobile Me would simply update information from the Mac, not add to it.
The contacts have the same two boxes and show all my groups of contacts twice.
Am I not supposed to sync with my mac now that I have mobile me? How do I get rid of these duplicates now?
Thank you,
Kim

Contacts and Mac OS Address Book won't sync anymore

I have an iPod touch, 2nd generation, with iOS 4.2.1, which has worked perfectly well for years.
Since I got an iPad 2 with iOS 5.0.1, and iTunes 10.5.1, and set up iCloud, and synced the iPad to my Mac, now my iPod touch will no longer sync any address book entries between iOS Contacts and Mac OS X 10.7.2 Lion's Address Book.
I've tried restoring the iPod touch to its factory-fresh setting and syncing with the Mac. I've tried rebuilding the Mac OS Address Book index, and repairing permissions on Mac OS X. Nothing seems to help.
Another clue is that the iPod touch Contacts stopped syncing at 512 Contact entries, while the Mac's Address Book had 521 entries. I think 512 is a suspicious number; is it an upper limit on entries that sync with iTunes and Address Book?
Any help would be appreciated.

The messaget is correct, that is, your iCloud calendar will no longer be on your Mac as long as you are signed out of iCloud. Your calendars will still be on you iPhone and on iCloud. After syncing your contacts to your iTouch, you then sign back into iCloud on your Mac and everything will be back as it was before you signed out. I did it on my Mac and have all my calendars and contacts as well as my wife's iTouch has all calendars and contacts.
You seem to be concerned about losing data, which is a valid concern. Do you back up your Mac using Time Machine? It is a great resource installed on the Mac to assure that if you commit any errors that resutls in the loss of data, then you can easlily restore it via Time Machine. If you have not been backing up your Mac then consider doing it. The Apple Store sales personnel recommended to me the LaCie Storage devices since they easily interconnect with the Mac. A Google search will find them at competitive prices as compard to what Apple charges. I am so paranoid about losing data that I have three separate 1TB LaCie drives backing up my Mac. I will be installing a forth as a network backup drive for my wife's Mac and my MacBook Air.
