No categories in contacts? You're joking right?
I have used the Treo for years and I'm glad I'm done with that. But no category functionality in the contacts? Someone tell me there's a way to do this in the iPhone. I'm not seeing it. I don't want someone telling me it's easier to scroll on the iPhone. I have hundreds of contacts.

No, you're missing the point. It's not a sync issue; it's a DISPLAY issue.
If you, like the OP, have hundreds of contacts on the iPhone (on the iPhone -- not your Mac or PC), the contact display is really awful, because it displays everything. You get to see hundreds and hundreds of mixed-together contacts. On other, more business-oriented phones, you can filter the list of displayed contacts by only displaying contacts in a particular category. Among other things, it's very useful for keeping your various business contacts (which can be in different categories) separate from your various friends and families categories (e.g., for those of you with in-laws ).
Unfortunately, this is one of the big issues that make it hard to use an iPhone for business purposes (and is, alas, the reason why I still have a palmpilot). I'd love to dump my palmpilot, but I can't. The iPhone is just too limiting (the really poor calendaring/notetaking is the other one).
no, YOU are missing the point.....
yes you CAN display your contacts in categories, they are called groups. if you click on contacts you will see a button in the top left corner that says "groups".
i have my contacts organized by friends, work, family, businesses, etc.

about 10 days ago started having trouble with Hotmail. Could isgn in but keep getting the following message.
Sorry, there's a problem with Hotmail right now
Hotmail wasn't able to complete this request. Microsoft may contact you about any issues you report.
I can send mail and review my contacts but that is it.
I then tried getting in with Internet Explorer and it works fine. I do not like IE because I have problems with some websites.Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.

The product that I purchased is not working!!!! I need help and I've been stuck in your "Contact us loop" for the last few days and I'm getting frustrated. How do I contact you for HELP!
Probably the best place to start is the right forum for your product. This is the forum for Distiller Server, a long dead product used by big companies, and probably not what you have. If you can't find the right forum, please let us know the FULL name of what you paid for (please check your invoice, as Adobe have many similar products), and we can perhaps direct you. Good luck!

I have a Mac G5 running OS 10.5.8. I downloaded Firefox 4 and now the program will not open at all. I get an error message that reads --
"You cannot open the application 'Firefox" because it is not supported on this architecture."
I am also unable to find a link to download the previous version (3.6) that was running fine. (I'm using Safari to contact you.)Same proble here, although the Firefox system requirements says it is OK to have PowerPC G3 G4 or G5 ( I have G5 2GHZ)
My solution; very simply use timemachine to restore the previous Frefox 3.x
worked great in 3 mns -
After upgrading the new operating system on my Droid Razr M it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select multiple message you have to delete them individually or the entire thread. Is there a way to get these back?
Well, that's kind of embarrassing. And I honestly thought I paid attention to that... It works perfectly now, thank you so much!
As expected, cdm-git also works fine since DMs only work in the root mode as of now.
Just for the record, both type commands output "/usr/bin/startx" and pacman -Q gives "systemd 215-4".

Did you try to repair Apple Software Update?
That is the important thing to try.
If that doesn't work we would need to try something else. -
When I sign on to my Monster account, some of the functions don't work. Monster tells me they are having trouble with my Firefox version (24). They can't seem to fix it and told me to contact you.
Hello,
Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you. -
Having problem loading pictures to facebook, they said to contact you for help. ?
facebook have a new photo uploading system and this does not currently work through my Firefox, they said to contact you as it was something to do with a plug in (?)
== URL of affected sites ==
http://facebook.comThe uploader is probably using Java - you can upgrade this from [http://www.java.com] . Just install the latest version from here, 6 update 20, and it will replace the older version you have.

What's your opinion on people contacting you directly?
I know this doesn't apply to everyone here, but everyone can feel free to share their opinion.
Since I have provided a few answers in the forum for Business Workflow, and have contact e-mail in my "business card" some SDN users take the opportunity to send me private e-mail asking for advice. There are two situations;
1) a person has posted a question which I have replied to, and the person sends me an e-mail with screenshots (heck, I don't feel confident about how to post those in SDN either)
2) a person sends the questions in private e-mail without having posted the question in SDN
I find situations of type 1) are not too bad, although I still think it is the wrong approach as everyone else gets lost in the discussion. I have only experienced this once, and I then replied in SDN where I also tried to explain what the screen shots showed.
Situations 2) are in my opinion a real disrespect for the ideas behind SDN, my spare time, and/or my employment situation. All such e-mails are consequently answered without providing any help, telling the person to post the question in SDN. (Note: "All" are not hundreds, but I think I have to start using both hands to count them now - and that's during less than a year.)
There are two things I would like to know your opinions on:
1) Would a normal person (i.e. you) cater to such a request (the second kind) in private e-mail?
2) How strongly should I tell these people that they have crossed a line that shouldn't be crossed. Is the following going too far?
<i>> Quoting Full Name <[email protected]>:
> Please allow me to contact you directly with some questions
> [SDN-relevant text/question snipped]
>
No, as everyone who asks this receives as answer. If you have a question, post it on SDN. Not so everyone can see what you are asking about, but so everyone can find this solution. Besides, I probably visit SDN more frequently than my private e-mail inbox, and there are other people who can answer the question, so you will get a solution more quickly. Ordinarily I wouldn't have checked it until this weekend now that I am travelling, but since I had to look for some other e-mail I discovered this.
If you want a private advisor, you'll have to contact my company to hire me. That's the deal of SDN - free advice, but only in public.

Happy hacking, and let the Debate begin!Yep, agree.
I provide my e-mail address in my business cards for three reasons:
1. Personal/private messages
2. Professional messages that should not be public
3. It's the only form of advertising allowed on SDN
The response I usually give people for asking for help offline varies.
Sometimes I respond with questions of my own: could they give me a more detailed spec, how many days of my time they would like, and whether I can work from home as this would affect my rate.
Most of the time however, I have a standard reply handy:
<i>I would like to help but I would prefer this via SDN. This has a number of benefits for both of us:
1. By posting on SDN we help anyone that has the same questions as you
2. By asking questions on SDN you have access to more knowledge than just asking one person.
3. I don't always have time - on SDN there are hundreds of people who can answer your questions so you are likely to get a quicker answer.
There are already a lot of resources out there - far more than I could write about in a whole week, I would suggest going through the excellent workflow tutorials in the SAP help, and looking through the Wiki FAQ https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/home/businessProcessManagement&
When you have questions, feel free to ask on SDN. But also remember that better questions get better answers, so use the rules of engagement to help you ask better qestions:

Please do not share your serial number on public forums.
Also confirm you are using correct serial number, Adobe serial numbers contain 24 digits.
Once you have located the correct serial number, refer below links
