N95 8gb contact list missing

I have a Nokia N95 and when i go to my contacts none of the contacts appear and there is no "options" just "exit". The numbers are still in my simcard or phone as when people call me their name still appears. I just cannot see anyones number. Can someone help me please???????
i also tried backing up the files to my computer but d backup came up with read error!
i badly need those contacts!

Hey giri_92003,
Welcome to the discussion board!
Have you tried to perform a soft reset, as this might help (*#7780#) to check if the options in Contacts comes back?
Also I would recommend you to try saving your contacts on Nokia Suite, not by doing a backup but by synchronising them on this software so you will be able to retrieve them after a reset.
Once all your contacts are copied on Nokia Suite then disconnect the phone from your computer and try to perform a hard reset *#7370# security code 12345.
Before performing this reset remember to save your data on Ovi suite.
What error do you get when you try to backup your files?
You can also have a look to this thread, as it might help you regarding the Backup issue.
Hope this helps!

SYNC ALL IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO OVI SUITE (messages, contacts etc..) (NOT THE COMPLETE BACKUP as single file, *.ubu)
Next:
Did you tried soft reset mentioned above?
after a "fresh" soft reset don't restore backup yet, Go to Contacts , do you see "Options">settings> ? if so try to create a new contacts manually, close Contacts, open again, do you see new created contact in the list?
If yes, that means your phone is still usable
Do soft reset once again, but this time only sync your data with PC, (Don't restore the complete backup).
Good Luck.

Outlook 2013 contacts list missing

When I look down my contact list contacts are missing, I do a search and they are there but not on my contacts list? I am unable to add them, gives me a message this contact already exsits.
Thanks.

Hey Remwhirl,
It sounds like you may have inadvertantly filtered your contacts. Try the following:
Open your contacts folder
Click the View tab on the file bar
Click Reset Current View
This will remove any filters that were applied.

I picked up my iPhone 4 and found my entire contact list missing. Can this be recovered?

What can I do to recover my contact list?

Hi bill,
Are you syncing your contacts with iCloud or iTunes?

IPhone Contacts list missing Address Book Notes

In my Address Book app I like to put a bunch of information in the Notes field. All other fields transfer over to the Contacts app on the iPhone but the Notes field doesn't show. How can I get Notes information in Address Book to appear in iPhone Contacts.app?

Amendment: though some entries (if they're 5 lines or less) show complete, others appear truncated, others are repeated (two notes fields appear on the phone under the one entry) and still others are missing entirely. IOS 5.0.1, syncing using MobileMe.
Is this a limitation of iPhone Contacts?

Aluminium Case for Nokia N95 8GB

Does anyone know where I can get one of these. I have got the old one, for the Plum coloured N95, however, this wont fit the new sleek N95 8GB....Any help please. Thanks

Apparently both of these anti virus packages work from F-Secure.
F-Secure Mobile Security
F-Secure Mobile Anti-Virus
N95-8GB is listed in the supported devices list.
So try the 2 top files at the top of the list when you click the link.

Can't find contacts on N95 8GB

Hi there. Just got my new N95 8GB -2 & when i add a new contact i can find it by scrolling all the way down but not by one letter. eg I have entered a contact just as M but when i go contacts> M , i get a list of everything with M starting at A!! eg Alan M,Bob m & so on -How do i set up to get it (1st letter) as 1st choice as with all my other phones? Have tried First name or surname but makes no difference......... Can anyone help?

Not giving excuses for Nokia.
But the way the search function seems to work is that when you type M it brings up all the contacts that contain M in it, in alphabetical order.
But if you have many many names then as you type it starts filtering them.
This is how Video Center and Music Player works as well. So it's a bit of backwards logic you think but really I think there's a reason.
Say you have many contacts saved. Now you know that this person first or last name starts with ME, but you don't know if it's the last or first name or that ME may be part of the name but not at the beginning then as you type ME it will bring all the contacts that have ME either at the beginning the middle or wherever.
So there's some logic to it but maybe not a lot...

N95 8GB SMS contacts display

Hey all
(be nice, im new )
Just got my n95 8GB today and it's awesome, but i'm having trouble with contacts in the inbox -
what happens currently is when i get a message in it displays last name, first name - ie Smith Bob, instead of Bob Smith
Does anyone know how to change this so that it doesn't happen?
I've tried changing the settings in the contacts list but it doesn't seem to help.

There is no setting for it unfortunatley...
The best way to cure this if it really is an issue ( although time consuming) would be to swap the names around in first name last name i.e.
First Name: Bob
Last Name: Smith
Shows as Smith Bob in SMS
Make it
First Name: Smith
Last Name: Bob
Shows as bob Smith in a message...
Good luck

Copy contacts between PC and Nokia N95 8GB without...

Hello...
I have Nokia N95 8GB.
I have 300 contacts stored on my PC from previous phone which was Nokia N90. What I want to do is to copy my contacts from my PC to my Nokia. But without PC Suite, without any synchro, just to copy them like in windows explorer, copy folder and paste folder.
Is this possible? I mean, I can do this, but don't know where to place them inside Nokia folder tree - I want them to be visible inside address book...
Thanx!!!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I am not sure this will resolve your problem but you could try with this.
1. Remove Previous phone plugins from Library/phone plugins (If any files are there)
2. Delete files from User/Library/caches/
3. Remove chaches from System/library/chaches
4. Download and install iSync plugin from Nokia website
Make sure you have installed all available updates from Apple using Software Update and your phone firmware is updated.
Are you getting any specific error messages?

Country list in contacts: countries missing

The country list in Contacts is missing countries. This is a huge hassle, as you have to assign a false country name to a new contact from a missing country. When you synchronise with Outlook, you then have to go and correct it. Apple should be using the standard ISO 3166-1 list rather than making up its own. Countries I have founds missing:
Anguilla
British Virgin Islands
Gibraltar
Guernsey
Isle of Man
Jersey
Montserrat
Turks and Caicos
That's about 100,000 people living in countires Apple doesn't recognize.....

Let me try understanding you. Because apparently you are way too smart for me to understand you.
So, let's say my contact is living on the "Peter Euwensweg number 1" in Curacao, you are actually saying that I should add his/her address to my contact as follows:
Street: Peter Euwensweg 1
Country: Netherlands
Is this correct? Is this what you are saying? Please enlighten me with another one of your smart replies.

HT1688 my contact list is missing a lot of contacts, why?

All in a sudden my contact list is missing many names and pictures of the contacts too.

go to the contacts app and select groups at the top left corner. and select all of them and see if your contacts appear.

Nokia N95 8GB backed up - how to I get the contact...

My Nokia N95 8GB was backed up a couple of weeks ago. Just as well as I wrote it off this weekend by putting it in the washing machine. I have now bought another Nokia 5228 Orange phone. This one has Nokia PC Suite. The N95 8GB has Nokia N series PC suite. How can I retrieve the content from the old phone with its N series software, and put the contents into my new Nokia 5228?
Chris Brown

If you have been using the latest version of PCsuite, it may be compatible with the 5228 as well. If it is then it is as simple as restoring th backup to your new phone. Obviously there are things like phone specific settings which cannot be restored. You should at least be able to get the contacts and messages.
