Okay...what happened to the full screen contact picture?

Okay...what happened to the full screen contact picture? Is there a way to get it back? I'd like to see the full picture of the person I'm  calling-not just an ugly blank screen with little round circles on it!!!!

I wrote my feedback there. Please everyone leave your feedback. The new 7.1 design is very impractical.
Why they crave so much about these ugly circles? There are lots of unused space available on the screen.
Please bring back the big rectangular buttons!!!!!!
And full-screen contact picture when someone's calling.

  • Full screen contact picture

    Please go back to the full screen contact picture! I didn't know what was happening until I looked at this forum. Why would you change something that works fine?

  • What happened to the home screen button from 1st gen iPad? Can't close apps.

    I received a 1st generation iPad as a regift. It worked fine until I erased and synced it with my iTunes and other devices. Instead of the home button, it had that little circle in the corner to get you back to the home screen (don't know what that's called). Now that I've synced, that circle/button is gone, and the home button doesn't take me home. I am stuck in whatever app or settings screen I open, and can't close it without a full reboot. I'm not sure what ios it was using before I reset amd synced, but now it is using 5.1.1. Is this the problem? Any fixes?

    If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...  Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • What's with the "Full Screen" movie rentals?

    I"m as ****** as the next guy about the "No HD rentals" issue, but even more ****** off that most of the rentals I'm clicking on aren't just not available is HD, but aren't even available in "Widescreen". All Macs have a "widescreen" display now, and even your iPods, iPod Touch, and iPhone's are widescreen. No one wants to download a rental of a "Full Screen" movie anymore. My God, "300" in Full Screen - What are they thinking? If they want to offer "Full Screen" rentals, it should be an option, like when you go to the video store to buy a DVD, and are offered a "Full Screen" version or a "Widescreen" version. I don't think they even sell Full Screen TVs anymore. I have the same problem with PPV from the cable company... If it is not offered in Widescreen, I don't rent it. The same will be true here. I just never imagined Full Screen would ever even be offered, much less the only option.

    The iTunes store has pretty much everything in widescreen that it can, but as with most televisions and "home theater" setups... Widescreen really doesn't matter. I know that some people prefer widescreen, but I don't. I have a projector not a TV so I have a 20 foot screen and the black lines in most "widescreen" movies eats up 4-5 feet of space. The only movies that come formatted for a widescreen TV in the first place(I am talking about on DVDs) are the Anamorphic Widescreen DVDs. They have a 2.35:1 aspect ratio, but very few DVDs actually have this, most are in 1.85:1 aspect ratio or 16:9 which is actually a fullscreen movie with black lines at the top and bottom.
    As for HD rentals in the iTunes store, this is AppleTV only, and that is not Apple's fault, this is due to DRM. In order for you to play a copy-protected Blu-ray or HD DVD you have to have http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDCP compliant hardware, the apple TV is HDCP, but you computer is not, so therefore Warner Bros/FOX/Sony etc. Can not be guaranteed that you won't be able to pirate their content.
    Most people do not have a widescreen TV, and yes most Computer screen LCDs are capable of just about any resolution, but a lot of people are still in the non-HD zone.
    I agree that many people want HD content, however given how hollywood lost the battle to keep DVDs copy-protected, they have taken enormous steps to protect HD content.....

  • What happened to my full screen view in iOS7?

    Before I downloaded iOS7 I could rotate my phone to utilize more of the screen. For example, when typing I could rotate my phone for a larger keyboard. Or, to prevent constant squinting I could rotate my phone to view photos and videos full screen. After downloading iOS 7, when I rotate my phone nothing happens. It's incredibly frustrating. The iPhone screen is already small enough. Why can't I view in full screen mode anymore???

    Never mind, found the screen orientation lock. Fixed it.

  • Who do I complain to regarding an Apple iPhone upgrade that has taken my my full screen contact picture and turned it into a tiny circle that is hard to see at a glance!!!

    I'm trying to find an outlet for the frustration I feel regarding the "upgrade" that replaced my full screen picture for my contact numbers to a tiny, little dot in the right hand corner.  Are they going to give us an option to go back or did someone  just need to justify their job by making  changes??

  • Full screen contact pictures

    I just got an iphone 4s and I would like to have my contact pictures be full screen when they call. When I try to edit the picture under their name in contacts, the picture appears blurry. All pictures have been taken with my iphone. Please help!

    Hi Ipen,
    Have you found the cause/solution? I'm having the exact same problem. It started after upgrading to an iPhone 5S with iOS 7, but I don't know if that's the culprit or not.
    One specific detail of my setup — I'm syncing my iPhone contacts with Google Contacts via CardDAV. Are you?
    Thanks,
    Jake

  • Full screen contact picture lost iPhone 6 plus

    upgraded my iphone 5 to ios8 and i was so pleased to see the return of fullscreen contact pictures for incoming calls. After getting an iphone 6+ today I am disappointed to see this return to the small round picture at the top of the screen. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

    Hello everyone. No one is missing a setting or need to do a bodoo ritual to get a full sized photo on incoming call in an iphone. The answer is simple since the phone in his original position has an aspect radio of 9:16 to the phone display a picture in full screen at the incoming call the picture needs to be in the same aspect ratio so there is no blank spaces anywhere and the software proceed to display the contact picture.  Also the picture has to stay in your library.
    The procedure to do this in iOS 8:
    1- Go to Photos>Camera Roll> Select the picture you wanna set as contact.
    2- Touch "Edit" in the right superior corner.
    3- Inside Edit mode touch the tool to resize.
    4- Set the grid to a position taller than wide.
    5- Touch the scale icon in the lower right corner of the screen. Is the one above the "Done" button.
    6- Select the last option that reads: "9:16" that is related to the aspect ratio for the selected area.
    7- Adjust your image zooming or moving until it reach the desired one.
    8- Hit done.
    9- Now in Camera Roll set the image to the contact desired. It's done.
    Enjoy.

  • What happened to the labels in Contacts with iOS 6?

    When I choose to add a new contact in my Contacts list, the contact label options are the following: mobile, home, work, home fax, work fax, pager, assistant, car, company main, radio.
    My custom labels are gone, and the option to "Add Custom Label" is not there, either.
    However, when I choose to edit a current contact and try to choose a contact label, the options are as follows: mobile, iPhone, home, work, main, home fax, work fax, other fax, pager, other.
    I also have my custom labels and the option to "Add Custom Label."
    Has anyone else noticed this? If not, try it. You'll see what I mean.
    Battery drainage with iCloud auto-syncing/backing up in the background, iPhone vibrating when choosing an alarm sound, and this...
    How many more bugs does iOS 6 have?

    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19772932?ac_cid=tw123456#19772932
    Look for my posts.
    Back up everything to iCloud. You will have to restore your device, but do NOT "Restore from Backup." You will have to "Setup as New [iDevice]" and then use iCloud to retrieve all your data.
    It's a little inconvenient, but this actually fixed the Contacts labels and battery drainage problems.
    There's some glitch with a direct update to iOS 6 through either Wi-Fi or iTunes. Those are the two problems that this method fixed, at least for me.
    I don't know what other bugs are present in iOS 6, but those were the two that bothered me the most.

  • HT1212 What happens when the touch screen doesn't work?

    I have an iPod that was dropped in water sometime ago and we dryed it out immediately with rice.
    I had lost all hope for it for a while, but then I noticed that it was still working and had the same homescreen on it.
    I decided to try it again and when I plugged it into my computer it said something about reactivating it on the internet somehow.
    When I did plug it into the computer it said I needed to put in the 4-digit passcode, but the screen isn't working.
    I figured it was because of the water damage, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing doing something wrong.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • What happened to the Welcome Screen in InDesign CC?

    It seems that I'm the only one missing it, because I've searched everywhere and I couldn't find a way to bring it back.

    I think Configurator will happen for InDesign CC, just not yet.
    For now, you could write a startup script.
    I only suggest these as alternatives. It would have been better if Adobe had made it an option. Very heavy handed and another thing that is going to P loyal users off.

  • What happen if the ipad screen is broken

    If the ipad air screen get broke so it will effect the whole ipad? For example that ipad may get more slower or something else

    The crack will spread and sooner or later you will have to replace iPad.
    It will cost you approximately US$219.00 to US$299.00 depending on the model.
    Apple will replace the entire iPad; they don't repair.

  • Full screen contact photos

    I have just updated to iOS 8 and I am trying to get full screen contact photos instead of the small circle in the corner.

    Hey Haigh2911,
    Thanks for the question. Yes, full screen call pictures have returned in iOS 8 for incoming calls. You’ll want to attach a photo to your contact’s card in the Contacts app:

  • What in the name of Goodness have you done re: the full screen picture of Contacts on my iPhone? Sort it out Apple or I'm going back to Samsung, where maybe I should have stayed!

    What in the name of Goodness have you done with the full screen picture of Contacts? How dare you just change it without so much as a bye or leave? This is NOT progress but a throwback to about 1997! I supposedly 'updated' to an iPhone two weeks ago. Should have stayed with Samsung I reckon. I am deeply unimpressed!
