Other apps don't respect Contact Sort and Display order

I just noticed this on my iPhone 4 and am wondering if anyone else has seen that the Map and Mail apps do not respect the 'Sort Order' and Display Order' settings that are chosen in 'Settings'.
I'm referring to when you get access to your contacts list when inside these apps (when you are composing a new email in Mail and use the '+' icon in the 'To:' & also when in Maps when using the 'contacts icon' to load an address in the 'Search' or 'Direction' fields.
On my iPhone 4 these two apps have the Sort and Display order apparently hardwired in that they don't change the ordering when it is changed in 'Settings'. It used to be that the contact list would always update everywhere to respect the odering chosen in 'Settings'. I thought that this must be an OS issue but for some strange reason on my old iPhone 3G that also has iOS 4 on it, I don't see this seemingly incorrect behavior....so at least in my case it is hardware specific.

1. I have a simlar problem with my new iPhone.
2. Settings configured to be "Last, First" (both sort&display).
2a. The Contacts app does not following this setting, but...
2b. The Phone app contact list correctly follows the setting.
3. In Settings app, configured to be "First, Last" (both sort& display).
3a. The Contacts app follows this setting
3b. The Phone app contact list follows this setting.
4. Could be that the Contacts app does not depend on the Settings (hard-coded?).

C3-01 Contacts sorting and displaying

I have just got a new C3-01 and can't find how to switch between sorting Contacts by Last name and First name.
Also the Favorite contacts option just shows part of surname rather than First name which is useless when several people with same surname are Favorites!
Am I missing something - I am sure there is an options there somewehere but can't find it!
Solved!

Ive just got this phone and wondered why the sender's name did not appear in thread message mode. this is the best answer since it solves everything and is nothing to do with your providor or the phone its purely in settings! Best answer. Now the name appears. thankyou.

Slow performance after installing Yosemite on an older Mac is often caused by inadequate memory. Although you can install the upgrade on a Mac with 2 GB of memory, experience has shown that at least 4 GB is needed for full performance.
Select About This Mac from the Apple menu. If you have less than 4 GB of memory, and your model has upgradable memory, install as much as it can take, or at least that much. Any reputable RAM vendor will have a web form in which you can select the Mac model and be directed to compatible parts.
Memory in the MacBook Air is not upgradable. If that's what you have, you should restore the previous system from a backup, or replace the machine. Ask if you need guidance.
The Etrecheck report clearly shows that SylvieRose has a Macbook Pro, not a Macbook Air and that there are only 2 GB RAM installed. The Etrecheck report can be very informative if one takes the time to examine it.

Links from Mail and other apps don't go to open copy of Firefox but attempt to open a second copy, so I get "A copy of Firefox is already open," FF 22, OS10.8.4

Links from within Firefox windows open new tab, but links within Mail, MSWord, and other apps attempt to open another copy of Firefox, and I get the "Close Firefox: A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time." This just started happening less than a week ago. I don't know when FF updated to version 22.0.

My problem seems to be fixed--I cannot reproduce it now, though it had been consistently happening for the past 3-4 days. The suggestions above do not seem to apply in any case: I do not want to open another instance of Firefox but simply to connect with the one that is already running; and I do not seem to have a .parentlock file.
If the problem returns, I'll be back. Meanwhile, thanks for the suggestions.

Google apps like Gmail and most other apps don't work while using wi-fi connection

Will Blackberry apps ever be developed to be configurable to use a wi-fi connection? I would assume there is great demand for such. There are very few places I go that do not have wi-fi and I have been able to save a tremendous amount of money by going without a data plan. I got an unlocked BB Curve 8900 ( at full price) and then bought T-Mobile's prepaid 1000 minutes.
I'm using traditional Internet addresses (like Gmail) that usually have a mobile rendering for email and information. I am always seeing other apps that would be convenient to have; though they seldom work properly. They always open Browser instead of Hotspot Browser, the one you must use to go to the Internet via the same kind of access that laptops and notebooks use.
If I let the phone go where it wants; I usually end up downloading and installing an app; which then won't work. To get what works, I Go To a specific Internet address like I would using the address bar in a full browser running on a computer.
Does anyone know how to configure these apps to use Hotspot Browser?I figured out how to get my Curve to default to Hotspot Browser; so it opens first when I click the "globe" icon in the BB menu; but this hasn't worked from various apps I've tried (Facebook, Google Maps, Google Talk, etc.).
Perhaps if I download a different browser? Like Bolt or Opera?
Also, I think I should be able to use Google Voice with my Curve; but I haven't been able to figure it out yet.
I don't have the use of the GPS capability - I'm thinking that is not possible - am I correct? The same with SMS?
Can anyone advise me about what others have been able to do and how?
Thanks!

Hi
You don't say which BB you have or which carrier you use or your geographical location.
What you are asking for is full BB functionality without paying for it. I can't see RIM doing that somehow. They rely on carriers distributing the product so would be shooting themselves in the foot.
I've no doubt you feel pretty good having saved "a tremendous amout of money" but I suspect it costs you to do so. Browsing by Wi-Fi doesnt eat into data allowance meaning you have the full data allowance available when you are out and about. Oh, and you can use Hotspots.
The BB service means you don't log-in to email accounts. Emails are pushed on to the BB and for up to 10 different email accounts.You can read 10 emails in the time it takes your browser just to load the log-in page.
You can also download apps that work and many of them are free.
You can download and use whatever browser you want, it still won't get you round the problem. No BB data plan means seriously limited functionality.
Voice dialling and GPS may not be supported by your device. SMS will be.
In terms of money, my friend was paying £20 payg to O2 on an ordinary mobile. We located a violet 8520 on Orange UK with 500mb data allowance for £9.85 per month. So who's saving money?

MBA connected to iPhone4 Personal Hotspot, but safari and other apps don't have internet connect

My new MBA is connected to my iPhone4 (show 1 connection), but when using Safari and other Apps, it always time out or display error message "no internet connect". Please assist. Thank you.

Contact sorting and nicknames

I am one of those people who has a well organized Address Book so if need be I can print out nice formal address slips or when needed I have all my friends listed by their nicknames.
Am I not finding the right settings page or isn't it possible at all to organize people by nicknames on the iPhone? I have a lot of business contacts for whom I don't mind having last and first name, but I'd still want my best friend to display by his nickname.
Thanks in advance,

hi..jain...
ROLE MERGING
If you want to assign two roles to a user but dont want them to appear as two roles,
you can use the concept of Merging of Roles.
Here,one can allow the user to see only that role in the top level navigation,whose
priority has been set as low.Although the contents of the other role are visible too,
but only n the second level navigation,with the contents of the higher priority role.
This is done by setting the merge-id of the two roles as one string(e.g. merge), and
then setting the merge-priority of the role you want to be visible in Top level navigation
as 99,while setting the other role's priority as 100.
This ensures that only one of the two (or many roles are visible).
SORTING is...
You can define the display sequence of the nodes comprising the various levels of the navigation hierarchy by prioritizing the items on a per level basis.
You define priorities by assigning a value between 0 and 100 to each item. Values may include decimal numbers.
The smaller the value of the navigation node, the further left it displays on the navigation bar, or the higher up it displays in detailed navigation. The item with the lowest value appears to the far left or the top, respectively, and the others follow in the order of their priorities.

Metro Apps don't open on Local and Domain account. Works on Microsoft Live account. Windows 8.1 Pro

This is Happening on Three different computers.
All computers are Windows 8.1 Pro. This is a clean install.
When the computer is initially setup, I first sign on with my Windows Live ID and everything seems to work fine there.
After Joining the computer to the domain, none of the Metro UI apps will open, they open briefly and close.
Added a local account and found that it also does not work there.
Steps I have tried to resolve this:
Modified owner and permissions on registry Key: HKCR\AppID\{3EB3C877-1F16-487C-9050-104DBCD66683}
Changed owner to Local Administrator and gave full controll to Local Admin and Domain user account.
Ran DCOMCNFG and under Computers ->My Computer-> WinInetCacheServer Properties I went to the IDENTITY TAB and changed
it to the Interactive User.
That did not help.
Ran this command: "powershell
-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.xml" from elevated command prompt and also did not help.
I tried downloading the App troubleshooter but it would not run.
I also tried "wsreset.exe" and got an error saying: " Windows cannot find 'ms-windows-storePurgeCaches'. Make sure you typed the name
correctly, and then try again"
When Trying to open the app and it fails I get this error under Applications in Event Viewer:
"Activation of app winstore_cw5n1h2txyewy!Windows.Store failed with error: This app does not support the contract specified or is not installed. See the Microsoft-Windows-TWinUI/Operational log for additional information."
Anyone know how to resolve this.
We are looking to implement Windows 8.1 Pro to our clients pretty soon and need to get this resolved asap.
Thanks

Hi,
Did you mean that this problem only after you join the computer to the domain? if so, you may need to check whether you domain controller would install any program to your system. or you can contact domain adminstrator for further assistance.
In addition, run the following in a Command Window (CMD) to re-register the Store App:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.XML

DPT-S1 Feature Add Request: File Size (bytes) Sorting and Display in Documents Lists

Document Lists view should include option to sort by and display file Size (bytes), as in all other file tools.
That would permit discovery of duplicate files with different names, and trimming out the largest files to save space.
Thanks!

Sorting Photos Display Order

On my Mac I use Picasa to organise my photos. When I sync this iPad I am not happy with the sort order of photos in my albums and likewise I cannot seem to find a setting to change the choice of image for the album thumbnail.
Am I missing somethin or has Apple missed the opportunity to use drag and drop to change th display order?

Photos are sorted in capture date order (possibly create date), and cannot be sorted in any other order - unless you manipulate their dates. The thumbnails are (at least on my iPad) the oldest photo in each album. If you think Apple have missed something by doing it this way : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

Why don't my contacts sort onto the alpha pages of the Contacts app?

New iPad. I'm entering contacts into the Contacts apps included. But they are all on one page with the alpha letter divider between the sections

You backed the phone up to iCloud, but what were you syncing the contacts with? Apparently, it wasn't iCloud...

Apps don't respect assigned desktops

Mission Control doesn't work any better than Spaces did in respecting the assignment of apps.
I have Pages, for example, assigned to only Desktop 4. But if I'm in Desktop 1 and double-click a Pages document that's on the (actual) desktop, it will open there, not in Desktop 4. If I'm in Desktop 2, where I'm running Mail, and double click on a Pages document attached to an email I've received, it will open there, not in Desktop 4. In either case I have to go into Mission Control and move the documents to where I want them.
So what good are the desktop assignments?

1. I have a simlar problem with my new iPhone.
2. Settings configured to be "Last, First" (both sort&display).
2a. The Contacts app does not following this setting, but...
2b. The Phone app contact list correctly follows the setting.
3. In Settings app, configured to be "First, Last" (both sort& display).
3a. The Contacts app follows this setting
3b. The Phone app contact list follows this setting.
4. Could be that the Contacts app does not depend on the Settings (hard-coded?).

Other apps don't respect Contact Sort and Display order
