No New Contact Information
Brief History:
1. First sync with iBook went fine, everything synced.
2. Edited AddressBook information.
3. Synced again, says it synced contacts, no information on Touch wasn't updated.
4. Noticed that iTunes wasn't pulling updated groups for the iPod Touch options (as in, which groups to sync and what group to put contacts into when created on the Touch)
5. Thoroughly stumped.
6. Any ideas? I bought this as a PDA (only need calendar and contacts) so I am pretty desperate to get the contacts working.
I am running the most up to date of everything (10.5.2., latest iTunes, latest Touch software).

Hello, and Welcome to Apple Discussions!
In the info pane for your iPod, make sure that syncing contacts is actually enabled.
Hope this helps.

Photoshop Elements 9 -Contact Book does not allow me to add new contacts.
I am using PS Elements 9. I added 17 new contacts when I first used it but now it won't save any new contact information. So any new people I want to email from within PS9 I can't. Anyone know why this happens and how can it be fixed. Any help appreciated.
It should be working, how are you trying to do it?
On the top menu of Organizer click on Edit >>Contact Book
Click New Contact
Enter details and click OK
Select photos, click Share >>Photomail
Your new contact should show up in the list and you can add a checkmark and click next etc.

I tried following code in do_prepare_output for deleting that information msg, that is still not working.
data lr_msg_service type ref to cl_bsp_wd_message_service.
lr_msg_service = cl_bsp_wd_message_service=>get_instance( ).
lr_msg_service->collect_messages( exporting iv_message_type = 'I' iv_delete_read_messages = 'x').

Can I clone contact information to speed up the entry of new contacts?
I go to meetings and get business cards from 8 people at the same company. Once I put one contact in, much of the contact information is the same. Is there a way to clone a contact so that I just have to edit the name, phone, and email address so I don't have to type it all in again?
Drag an existing contact from the contact list of your address book to the desktop.
Drag the resulting .vcf file back into the contact list.
Choose to review duplicate.
Choose to keep both.
Choose to import.
Edit the new contact.
Have a nice day. -

Location Information window comes up when I save a new contact record.
Why does the Location Information window pop up every time I save a new contact record? It didn't seem to happen when I used the 2010 Outlook before in another computer system? How can I prevent it from coming up by default?
Hi,
You need to go ahead and complete it.
Before you can enter a phone number for a contact, you need to enter your telephone area code and save it . This way Outlook will know how to format your phone numbers.
You can configure this in Control Panel > Phone and modem.
Thanks,

How To Add Additional Fields When Creating New Contact From w/in Mac Mail?
Hi there. When in Mac Mail and clicking on contact information provided within an email, we are able to either (1) CREATE NEW CONTACT or (2) ADD TO EXISTING CONTACT (by clicking on the arrow next to a phone number, address, etc.). If I choose "Create New Contact," how can I add additional fields BEFORE clicking on "Add to Address Book" button in lower right corner? Let's say, for example, I know this new contacts URL or company. (Currently, I am creating the new contact from within Mac Mail and then going to Address Book and finding the contact, then editing, the adding the additional fields, then saving, and then going back to Mac Mail. This all takes time.)
Note: When creating a new iCal event from within Mac Mail, we can click on Option/Alt key when selecting drop-down arrow...and this will allow us to add additional information. The same feature isn't available for address book???I have the exact same question and problem. If there was a way to automatically open the AB entry after "creating new contact" this would solve it.
Thanks for any suggestion -

How do I get my new contacts to the contacts folder connected to Icloud?
When I add new Contacts on my PC, they go to a Contact folder that is not connected to Icloud. It is a Contact folder under "My Contacts". I have to move them over manually the Contact folder that is in the Icloud folder! Also when I double click on an emailaddress to look for the Contact, it looks in the default folder - where I don't have any Contacts (as I move the to the Contact folder connected to Icloud).
Can I move the Contact folder that is default to the Icloud and then move all Contact over to that one and then delete the one I use now??
Just afraid to loose the 2800 Contacts I built up during many years (running my own business) !
Looked for a solution for months... so grateful!
ThomasA little more information would be helpful, like how are you trying to sync, what have you done to set it up, what is your computer type and operating system, what error message do you get when the phone "does not want to sync with the computer"
If you haven't done so yet it would be helpful to read the manual, specifically the chapter on syncing contacts: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf. -
My iphone 4s is importing contact information from FB and my e-mail account. When I try to look at my contact list it is showing everyone I have on those lists and it only shows their email addresses. The phone numbers for my contacts have disappeared and I don't know how to get them back.
Hi macmac57. I don't memorize my numbers anymore, so I know how important it is to have all your contacts on your phone at all times. Did an update occur or a new application download when your contacts disappeared? Have you been backing up your device with your computer? You can try to restore your contacts from your last backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Are you syncing your iPhone between multiple computers? This can sometimes create issues with your contacts. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1474
If you were already using iCloud to back up your contacts, check out http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3998 for some great tips from Apple.
I do hope this has been helpful for you to restore your contacts.

Can't see new contacts added to iphone during sync
During my iphone sync i used to see a window that would pop up indicating any changes in the address book and any new contacts to add during the sync
then i would hit Sync Contatcs and it would add the new information to the address book and iphone and finish the sync.
Has anyone else been missing this feature , Is it due to the lastest IOS software update ? . is there somehting i am overlooking in preferences .Butting multible batches on a CD is not the problem, and having full accsess is not the problem, Youa are able to read them on a pc because they are not as picky about the media that is used, Chances are the company is using a media that your Mac can not read.
Not all Mac drives can read all Media types.
and likewise not all PC's can read and write to all media types as well.
For the most part DVD-R and CD-R are the most widely compatible media's that almost all Computers can read and write to.
You will probably find that if they are in buisness doing this they probably have the latest technology and are using a media type that your Mac can not read.

IOS7 syncing with MS Outlook 2010 no longer syncs all the contact information
With the new iOS7 on an iPhone 4s, syncing with MS Outlook 2010 on win XP, the phone no longer syncs all the contact information as it used to before I updated to iOS7 and iTunes 11.1, and now ignores the "Home" addresses I have on Outlook. It also apprears to miss some other bits of information too, but the home addresses are key for when I am away from the computer. How can I resolve this syncing error? Thank you.
The same thing is happening to me since upgradng to iOS7, although I am syncing contacts with Mac contacts, not Outlook.

Status of Backup Assistant for Contact Information
Can some one tell me (preferably a Verizon technical resource) the status of Backup Assistant for Contact Information?
I upgraded to a new phone a few weeks ago, and when searching MyVerizon saw the availability of the "free" contact backup capability... It is not really free for me, because I don't have a data/text plan, so I had to pay for the app download and sync text transfer. I figured it would be worth a few dollars to have the backup capability and ability to enter data from a keyboard instead of the numeric pad (I have a flip phone without a qwerty keyboard). The sync import of my phone's contact list worked fine, and I spent quite a bit of time updating addresses online... However, the changes online were not exported back to my phone, so my work added no value me.
I attempted to wait a few days to see if a regular update would resolve the problem... Tried making a few updates today--the web application seemed buggier than a few weeks ago... If I tried to input more that a one field, it refused to save the contact. I could update by doing small updates and saving, but this was painful... Tried several times to update the ICE contacts--they would appear to be OK, but after a save the changes were lost...
Tried reading documentation to see if there was an explanation of how to download changes made online to phone... Could find nothing other than instructions to download to a "new" phone...
Came to the forum to see if there was a message here that would help me... I was very disappointed to see that the Backup Assistant has apparently been "broken" for several weeks with no apparent resolution timeframe available.
As an IT guy, I was appalled that Verizon does not have anything on the web site that warns users that there is a problem with the site and gives an approximate resolution time for the problem. This is always a priority for my group--make the users aware of the problem and give them status on resolution progress. Verizon's lack of information has let me waste time and money trying to work with an application that is known to be broken.
Key questions for me:
1) Can the cost of downloading backup assistant and the syncing be refunded to me? (The service to date has only provides me with a frustrating online update experience with no benefit to me on my phone.)
2) When will the site be functioning with normal capability?
3) What is normal function? Are the problems that I have had with updates due to the problem discussed in other posts or are they standard features of buggy code?
4) If the application were working normally, how would one do updates online and have those updates exported back to the phone?BillW wrote:

The "sync" with the online system is supposed to happen automatically. I set the option on my phone (go to BA on the phone, Options >> Set Schedule. I have mine set to late night.) It is supposed to connect to your online backup and sync any changes. Mine shows last back up at 10 days ago, and I am not inclined to hit the "back up NOW" option as that is what seems to be causing loss of contacts form the phone.

It has worked as you expect it would, for me, in the past. I have used it for years, actually, and been pleased, and recommended it to others. The recent debacle is very disappointing.
4) If the application were working normally, how would one do updates online and have those updates exported back to the phone? Normally, it would be automatically synced to your phone when you log out of the online service, and then a daily backup from your phone to the website would occur on the schedule you set.
I am not a Verizon employee, I am simply a customer, satisfied for the most part with my service, and I like to help others. This recent BA mess is not fun....and I hope it gets resolved very soon. -
I just lost all my contacts on the ipod2 ...how do I get them back? They just disappeared while I was typing in a new contact. Help!!
joephilipose,
If the contacts are still in Address Book on your computer, but just not on the phone, you can tell iTunes to force replace the contacts on your phone with those from your computer. You can do this by going into the Info tab when your iPhone is connected, and checking the Contacts box under the Advanced section at the bottom of the page.
You may also want to backup your Address Book information as well. It's a good idea to make periodic backups of your contact and calendar information in case information accidentally gets deleted or changed. You can find out how to backup your Address Book data here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AddressBook/4.0/en/ad961.html
To backup your iCal information, follow the steps in this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iCal/3.0/en/9889.html
Hope this helps,
