New contacts not appearing in list, but show up in Spotlight?

Anybody know why when I add a new contact they don't appear in my contacts list but I can find them with Spotlight? It's very strange. I also have contacts sync to Windows Contacts but they don't show up there, only when I search for them in Spotlight. It says they're in the group "From my PC" (not sure why) but when I go back to the group it doesn't show them! It's like they're invisible.

I have the same exact problem.
If I add a new contact through say the "log" or "messages" it doesn't show up. I have to physically add it from the contact "+" for it to appear under Contacts.
I've managed to narrow it down to the fact that any new contact seems to be saved to "Exchange". I've realised that when I saved a contact from the "log" and then added it physically from contacts and ended up with a "linked" contact. One contact is "Exchange" and the other is "MobileMe".
The "exchange" contact is the one that doesn't seem to appear under "contacts" and when you find it through spotlight search, you can't edit it.
So basically, how can we force the phone to save locally when we add contacts outside of the "contacts app"?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is REALLY bugging me!

New contacts not appearing in contact list after ios upgrade

I recently updated my iphone to the latest ios, since then when I have saved a new contact to my phone, even though it appears with the new contact, say in recents, it does not appear in my contacts list?

I added the contact from the "Recents" tab. It now shows in "recents" as that persons name - rather than just the phone number, but doesn't appear in my contact list. Same thing happened when I saved a new contact from a message I received & also when I saved from a contact that had been SMS'd to me.

New Photos not appearing in iPhoto but are in Show Contents

Hello,
I am have a few issues with iPhoto.
1. My last two imports of photos do not appear. the Last import is showing photos from back in 2013. If I Show Contents I can drill down and see in Master, Original a 2014/04/12 & 13 folder with sub folders and all the pictures. I made a not of the file names and back in Iphoto I tried to search for the image name but it did not retrn any results
2. I have had to force quit iPhoto 2-3 times in the past two days
3. Today when I open iPhoto, the Events do not show photo is is a black box. If I scroll up and down it then shows some photos, like I would nomally see.
Do this issue seem to indicate a problem with iPhoto, is there an index type issuse.. can I rebuild iPhoto in some way
For point 1, can i delete the folders in the "Show Content" option and reimport them?
Thanks

For point 1, can i delete the folders in the "Show Content" option and reimport them?
No. If you know the file name of the photos that are not showing do a search form them with the search tool:
If the image shows up Control (right) - click on it and select Show Event from the contextual menu.
If it does'nt kdo the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

New Buddies not appearing in list

Starting a new thread for this problem I have..
I have this problem with the 3 new people I have added over the past 2 days.
When I add them, their name comes up briefly but "flashes/fades in and out" and then disappears all together from my Buddy list, weather they are online or offline. They are nowhere to be found..
Yet if they are online, they can see me and chat with me, but i cant see them to start a chat..
So far this problem has really only been with new the buddies i have added.
Any help?

Hi,
Welcome to the  Discussions
It does seem there has been an issue with the AIM servers recently.
However it is also fair to say that iChat seems to sometimes do this.
Start by Going manually to your Home Folder/Library/Preferences and deleting com.apple.iChat.AIM.plist and restarting iChat
You can also try changing the Login port
(iChat menu > Preferences > Accounts > Server Settings)
to 443 (the default is 5190)
You have to be Logged out to do this.

How can I turn off Recently Websites when opening new Safari window? After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed.

How can I turn off Recently Visited Websites when opening new Safari window?
After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed. How can I turn this function off? I do NOT want my new Safari windows to have history displayed of previous websites I visited. I only want my Favorites (on the top) to be displayed. Please help.
Thank you for your time, patience, understanding, kindness, and concern.

Thanks for replying, but that isn't the answer I am looking for. Also, there is no + sign, UNLESS you do tap the overlapping boxes.
Let me try to ask my question a little more clearly:
When I tap the two overlapping boxes on the lower left (the option to Open New Windows), the new Window that appears will show your Bookmarked FAVORITES. But with my new iPhone 6, and the new iOS 8.0.2, when I tap the two boxes to open a New Window, my Bookmark Favorites show (as they always have and should), but below them, there is a dividing line underneath them, and it says Recently Viewed Websites, and has these websites available to tap.
So my question is, HOW DO I TURN THESE OPTION OFF?
*UPDATE (10.13.14): Since I have asked this question, I no longer see these Recently Viewed Websites under my Bookmarked Favorites in my new Window tabs. So I hope that Apple fixed it, or somehow it was a mistake, or somehow I changed an Option on my iPhone 6 that stopped this for reoccurring.
Thank you for your help bobseufert! I appreciate your concern, kindness, and the time to try to help. I am grateful.
Have a blessed day.

ICal download for Jewish holidays will not populate iCal calendar but shows up on "Subscription" section of list of calendar

TS4006 Contacts entered on iPad /iPhone will not appear on Mac but do on each other. Contacts entered on Mac do appear on all three

Contacts entered on iPad and iphone5 will not appear on Mac but do appear on each other. Contacts entered on Mac do appear on iPad and iPhone ?

Hi denctanner,
I did read the post. I was simply explaining that Contacts does not sync with the OTA Sync function, it syncs via iCloud if you want to sync wirelessly....
The OTA Sync option on the Info page has nothing to do with the iCloud syncing of your Contacts....
Try deleting your iCloud account on your iPhone and signing on again. Once you have signed iCloud back on, make sure all the options you want checked are checked, and then try it again. (When you delete it, you will get a message that it will delete your Photo Stream and Document but don't worry, when you sign back on, they will come back).
Cheers,
GB

My iPhone does not always send iMessages to other iPhones who have their iMessages on. Most times I text a new contact with an iPhone first, they show up as regular text messages. How can I fix this?

My iPhone does not always send iMessages to other iPhones who have their iMessages on. Most times I text a new contact with an iPhone first, they show up as regular text messages. How can I fix this?

Yes to receive an iMessage the recipient would need an iOS device (iPhone, iPod, iPad) and an internet connection. This is a messaging serviceprovided by Apple so the recipient does not need to check emails. If the contact does not have internet access at the time the iMessage is sent then a normal SMS through your carrier can be sent instead if you have "Send as SMS" turned on in Settings>Messages.

Apps listed in free list but showing as paid

Hi,
I have an iPad 4. Yesterday I found that some apps (Numbers, Keynote) are appearing on the "Top Free" list but showing a price tag beside it. The same apps is showing free on another iPad (iPad Air) of my friend with his own apple ID. What can be different here? We both are using same iOS version.
Thanks,

Thanks Diavonex .. I am disappointed with this this policy .. There should not be discrimination between new and old users .. I would rather say old users should get more benefits for their loyalty ..

New lot not appearing in qa32 - v urgent

Hi all,
I have an urgent issue to resolve. we have developed a report that shows those batches
-for which UD has been done 8 days before but no despatch till date OR
-for which no UD has been done and date of production is 8 days before from today.
User wants that a new lot for above batches should appear for UD again in qa32.
For this i have defined procedure as:
1. Run REPORT Which will identify batches older than 8 days (from the days of production or last UD date).
2.Go to QA07 Enter material codes, Batch numbers, and plant and select the option of Block Batch at lot creation.This will transfer all the mentioned batches to blocked stock and create an inspection lot automatically.simultaneously an inspection lot will start appearing in transaction QA32, against this batch for inspection.
Now the issue is that after QA07, I can see in mb52 that stock of the batch move to restricted, but no inspection lot appears in qa32. a new inspection lot should appear in qa32.
any ideas ? have i missed anything? i have also done changes in inspection plan,
cant figure out what i missed. pls respond.
Regards,
Aisha Ishrat
ICI Pakistan Ltd.

Let me simplify my question:
i have some batches in system for which UD had been done 8 days
before but no despatch has been done against those batches.User
want to give UD again for those batches.
what i advised him to change the inspection plan of those
materials by putting '9' in 'usage' and '4'in 'status' fields in
qp01 and then go to qa07 and enter material codes, Batch
numbers, and plant and select the option of Block Batch at lot
creation.The batches automatically transferred to blocked stock.
Now the issue is that after batches transferrence to block stock,
new lot should appear in qa32 but its not appearing.any ideas??
Have I missed any thing? Kindly give a prompt reply.

Epson DX5000 driver does not appear on list in'print using' box

Epson DX5000 driver does not appear in list despite the fact that I have downloaded the software.
When the printer is connected and I try and print I first go to 'add printer' in the print dialogue window. This takes me to the printer browser where the Epson DX5000 appears - at this starge I can't add as this option is not highlighted. Instead I have to go to 'print using' where I click on Epson - this is where the problems start as the DX is not on the very long list.

Hi Ali
Yes I have installed the software
I have been using another printer so I realise that I don't need to add printer each time - this is the first time using this new printer
After I 'add printer' I am taken to the printer browser where the RX5000 is listed (this is in the default browser mode) when I then click the RX5000 the name and location appear in the appropriate boxes but I am unable to press the 'add' button. I have to go to more printers where I then go on to look in the epson folder.
this is where I get stuck as my printer is not listed

IPod touch 4th generation will not sync with iTunes, but shows up in Windows 7 64bit(Acer Aspire laptop)

Hello all, I am writing this message in the hope that somebody can help me to solve my issue with my iPod touch fourth generation. It has been unable to sync with iTunes, but shows up in windows as the iPod touch. I also had this problem with my older iPods as well (Ipod nano 4th Gen, iPod touch 2nd gen(Batteries done for that one)) I can sync music with iCloud, but I have a bunch of songs that are not in the store, and I sincerely want to add those, alot.
I've checked the "iPod appears in Windows but not in iTunes" with the link here: (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1363), and followed that process, but to no avail, it does not solve the problem. I've tried to reset the entire ipod by making it enter DFU mode and then rebooting the entire iPod (shows up in iTunes in temporary mode) but once restored, does not appear in iTunes, but still in Windows detected still as a iPod, looks like the iPod and everything. I also have the most uup-to-date iTunes installed (10.5 I believe, just got it today)
This is extremely frustrating because that is why I purchased the iPod (and for the games and apps, those are great too). The iPod was also purchased three days ago, and the setup still didn't detect it. I am not mad at anybody here or the Apple company itself, but I have not found any help online with the browsing option (for support of course).
Please, I would absolutely love the help, i'd be eternally grateful for it.
-Tyler

Never mind, turns out that by uninstalling the programs "Megakey" and "Megaupload" it had resolved this issue.

Text not appearing in Safari, but is in Firefox?

Hello there,
I've recently completed a webpage using Adobe GoLive. The thing is, any of the text in the pages will not appear in Safari, but does in Firefox, IE etc. I've changed about the character encoding, but nothing's worked for me.
Another funny thing is, the if I make any of the text a hyperlink, then it does display in Safari (just the linked bit).
I'm completely stumped!
You can see my problem here: http://www.ireland-kilkenny.com
I created part of the site using iWeb:

Why is Safari so particular about coding standards, when other browsers will display the page with no problems at all?
Safari is one of the younger browsers out there and so the developers concentrated on the core established standards - as time goes on they slowly add more of the 'quirks' that other browsers allow website designers to get away with
WebKit is the core rendering engine of Safari and the developers have a website that shows what they've been working on. They also let you download a version of Safari that has been built with this WebKit to let you test out if various bugs have been fixed:

Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry.
See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled extensions that are not compatible on the next start in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button to do a compatibility check.
