Pages 09, problems with merging with Contacts

Hi there,
I'm new to the Mountain Lion world.
I used to work with pages 08 and Carnet d'adresses on Leopard.
I had many model documents ready to merge with carnet d'adresses on Leopard.
I managed to transfer all my clients vcards on Contact.
I managed to transfer all my model documents from 08 to 09 pages on my new laptop.
I thought I would just have to drag the vcards from Contacts to the model page but actually it doesn't work at all.
I've tried using one of the Pages' models and drag a vcard on them but it also didn't work. So I guess the problem doesn't come from the model I created on 08.
What do I need to do? Have you ever experienced this situation?
Jennifer

Hi Jerrold,
thanks for your help.
I ended up phoning the Apple support and it took them one hour and forty minutes to find out where the problem was
In fact if you buy from APPstore Pages09 and fail to tick a box in the preference system, in the security and confidentiality menu, your Contacts application and Pages won't be able to work together.
That was a very tricky question I asked the staff. I had to have an engineer to have a look at the problem as the other persons I had previously on the phone had the same problem as I had on their screens and couldn't find the solution.

Started a similar string before. When I select a recipient in Messages on my Macbook Pro the name shows up in red and says the recipient is no longer registered on iMessage. I know that they are registered. Is there a problem with Contacts?

Hi,
Try iMessaging your own iPhone and see if your account is actually logged in.
It can appear "enabled" and On line but sometimes it is not.
Also try sending from your iPhone (number) to your Apple ID and see if it gets to the Mac.
If it does not use the Sign Out button.
Then shut down the Mac
On restart add back the Apple ID to the iMessages account settings.
I also just checked My wife's iPhone as she popped up red.
It turned out her iPhone did not have Messages On.

Hello there erika274,
It sounds like no matter what contact you put into the 'To' field, a different name appears, but the email makes it to the intended recipient. I would recommend a few things here. First, close all the open apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the phone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Problem with Contacts for 6500 slide

I recently bought a Nokia 6500 slide and i`m very pleased, except one thing.
I used to have some other phones, and all my contacts were on the memory of that phone (not on the SIM).
For me to have my contacts on the 6500 slide, i had to move all those contacts on the sim, then insert the sim into the 6500 slide and move them again from there to the phone memory (i hate having my contacts on the sim couse i can't add any aditional info).
Ok, so.. after i moved all my contacts to the phone memory, i saw that from about 200 contacts, i only have about 20. At first i thought "ok, there was a problem with the moving process and i lost them all..." I was just about getting over this, when I realized that those numbers that I lost are still in there, but i can't see them.
If I manualy enter a number of a contact that don't show in my Contacts List, when it dials, the number appears on the screen. Same if that contact calls me. I can't see them in the Contact List tho.
It's like there are hidden or something..
I tried changing the settings so that i can see only the contacts in the SIM (in which case, none apear), only in the phone (only those 20 or so appear) or showing both (still, only 20 or so appear).
The contacts are not in the SIM couse i tried putting the sim back in the old phone, and it's empty.
They must be somewhere in the phone. Is there a hidden setting that i can find, that allows me to see those contacts that I thought I lost? It's very annoying to wait till someone calls me so I can add his number again in the phonebook
To be more specific, let me give an example.
Let's say I had contact "John" with the number "12345678". Now I can't see it anymore.
If i dial 12345678 and then hit "Call", it apears like "Calling John"
If John calls me, it apears like "John" on the screen.
If i try to add John to the phone book I get a message like "A name is already entered for that number"
It's like... all the contacts are already there, but I can't see them
Can someone help me please... I`m really desperate

Hello and welcome to the forums;
First, you mention the error references a SIM card, however your profile says you have a Sprint device. A small problem there, and I would like to clear up any confusion as which device you have: a Sprint CDMA device, or one with a SIM card.
Second, have you tried restarting your device? Hold down the power button and move the ringer mute switch next to it back and forth 3 times, then wait 4-5 seconds for the device to restart by itself.
Try this, and let us know what happens.

Problem with contacts after upgrading to iOS 7 (iphone 5)

After upgrading to iOS 7 (iphone 5), the contacts (loaded from icloud) in greek language aren't sorted!!! They are under the # symbol!! Anyone has a solution. I didnt have this problem with previous iOS versions!!!!

My phone was fine after I connected to iTunes. It appeared in recovery mode and then it downloaded the update, installed and all was fine.
Regards,
Jeevan.

HT2204 I have 3 iphones and all use the same apple ID,how do I change this so each phone has its own id,do i restore the phones to factory settings first??as im having problems with contacts being added to and deleted from each phone.

I have 3 Iphone 4S and all have the same apple ID which is causing problems as far as contacts are concerned,when i sync 1 of the phones to my comp the contacts appear on all the phones.How do i create a new ID for each of the phones do I have to reset the phones to factory settings first,any help would be appreciated.:)

Hello marie196,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
You do not necessarily need to restore the device to factory settings, but rather sign out of the four services that utilize your Apple ID: iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, and iTunes & App Stores. Once signed out, you can sign in with a new Apple ID. For more information, see the following article:
Using your Apple ID for Apple services
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895
Additional Information: You may encounter an error regarding a 90-day limit. For information on this, see the following article:

Thanks,

Some problems with Contacts app and Apple iCloud CardDAV sync

Hi all,
I've managed to get my iCloud Contacts to sync with Playbook 2.0 Contacts app using the CardDAV account.
So far, so good, but I'd like to report many small annoyances which make me feel sad.
1. No clear separation between the accounts. I have the Contacts from two of my Gmail accounts and now from iCloud. There is NO WAY to view just one account, one must see all of them.
The Messages app is clearly better for separate different accounts.
2. The sort options are poor. I can sort by First or Last Name, but the presentation is still First Name followed by Last Name. I like the Last Name first. And the sort reverts all the time to First Name. VERY ANNOYING!!!
3. Related to item #1, no possibility to indicate when the new contact will be created. I presume it will be created on my Gmail account, because it's my primary account, but no mention about it.
4. Some fields are missing. I presume it's just the limiation of the Contacts app. For example, the Spouse field syncs, but not the Father, Mother or Child fields.
5. The Groups are synced as empty Contacts with the Name = Group Name.
6. No advanced sync options, like iCloud -> Playbook only to avoid to screw up my whole Address Book.
Hope all those annoyances will disappear with time. I understand that some problems with Google Contacts sync are due to Exchange limitations, but I hope full CardDAV support will be added soon.

I will figure out to to use Mail, Contacts and Calendar in best possible conditions, don't worry. I use them all the time, so for me it's a vital question, overwise I just sell the Playbook.
So far, Contacts suck because of the limitations enumerated in my first post, Messages suck because of the impossibility to select multiple messages at once and Calendar sucks because it doesn't support the Floating Time Zone.
All iCal users that use and abse this feature understand me

K3 Note - Problems with Contacts within Phone

some of my contacts are listed simply as 07xxx xxxxxx and others as +44 7xxx xxxxxx. If the sends phone is set to send as a +44 but I have them saved as a 07, its not clever enough to realise its the same number, so I am having to save each contact with both numbers, so that there name comes up when phoning or receiving a text. Any way Around this ?

The other 2 issues were inter-related. And it was to do with duplicate entries in my contacts. I went through them all and discovered that for some reason (and I don't know how- perhaps corruption during various PC Suite back-ups/restoring of data) I had 3 or 4 contacts duplicated. I deleted the copies (which at the time of deletion looked strange, as they were still showing for a while, then they were showing in the list as a blank entry for a bit too), turned my phone off and on again, and now contacts details come up when they call me and my speed dial is working again.
This is the ideotic and stupid problem related to Outlook contact sync. Even I started from no contact in Outlook then used PC Suite done syncing procedure. It came out alright. However, it would be stupid from the second time sync, no matter where ever contacts had changed in details. It will duplicate all your contacts both in phone and PC, amazingly. I have no idea whether this is MS or Nokia fault. That the last time, I have synced my contacts with PC (more than a year ago). Believe me, I tried with every ways you can imagine.

Problem with contact list in email w/ 3.0

After upgrading to 3.0 I'm having a problem with the "To" in emails. I start typing in a name in the "To" field and it does not bring up matching entries in my contact list (it used to do so with the previous version SW).
I have to try to send the email at which time an error message comes up. I have to cancel the send, delete the name in the "To" field and type the name in again. The second time it brings up the contact list and eveything works fine.
Anyone else having this problem?

Problems with contacts getting deleted after software upgrade!

Somehow, my IPhone 4s had a software upgrade, and it DELETED contacts. Anyone else have a problem with this???? UGH!
I had a thunderbolt before my IPhone, and my contacts were saved to the verizon back up assistant. They are now nowhere to be found!

If you were already using iOS 5 where you using the iCloud feature to back up your device? If so, you should be able to retrieve your contacts. If you just upgraded to iOS 5 where you backing up your device on your computer via iTunes? You were advised to complete a backup prior to proceeding with the software update...if you did so then a copy of your back up should be available in iTunes. Try looking at the following link to see if it helps:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
If you did not do a backup and you were not using iCloud to do backups then you would need re-sync your contacts from another source...did you use a contact manager on your computer (such as Outlook)? If you did then you can retrieve your contacts from there. Try looking at this link to see if it helps. If it is not the correct one you can do a search on that site to find the article that better fits your needs.

Pages causing problems with Word.

I have Office 2004 and have used Word, Excel and Power Point for years.(with previous PCs as well as my MacBook) I also have IWorks 09.
I was working on a project exchanging material with several people on a team and found that my old Word would not open new Word documents with the suffux "doc.x" or any other iterations. I found after experimenting that Pages '09 could open these documents but now I am having problems with all of the Office programs. They freeze and grey out options so I can't even print them or save them. I assume that there is some cross interference but these are not documents that I have opened in Pages but previous Word documents (and Excel and Power Point) that I have edited in their respective programs and then try to save and/or print.
Anyone have similar experiences? I could reinstall the Microsoft programs or buy new but rather not if there is a fix.

I am not an Office user, so I cannot give an expert piece of advice.
Essentially, Office 2008 was worse than both 2004 and 2011, so I do not see the reason for an intermediate upgrade, already 4 years and half old (was released late 2007). As 2004 is not usable in Lion, and you will probably upgrade to Lion sooner or later, combined with what was said above, if you want to upgrade you Office 2004, the only rational option is 2011.
The other alternatives are LibreOffice or OpenOffice and iWork, with the notes already sent earlier today.
As about ‘unfreezing’. In my limited tests, Office 2004 works fine on PPC machines, is a lot worse on intel machines, even with latest updates (I assume you installed all the Officd 2004 updates, there were many, perhaps the last one includes all the other previous ones). There is also a docx to doc converter, released just for 2004 users:
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24947/office-open-xml-file-format-converter
If you are in Snow Leopard, Office 2004 should work reasonably well, cannot figure out why it may freeze. Is it updated? There is an Office updater, if not wrong, within Office folder, run it.

PLSQL Server Pages (PSP): problems with viewing data

Hello.
I'm currently working at on-line shop and have some problems with viewing data from database. When there is no much inserts to table its working very well. But after inserting all Inserts I have its acting weird.
Sample with 10 INSERTS:

Sample with 100 INSERTS:
http://gafgarion.atspace.com/psp/2.jpg
I'm using Oracle 9i. when I have more data in my database its acting weird. There is SELECT only from one table, but sometimes I have data from other tables aswell.
I didnt touch any config files or something else. Only created new User and DAD.
any ideas what should I do to fix that ??
thnx in advice

Hello,
My guess is that you are speaking about PLSQL Server Pages (PSP), and the PLSQL Web Toolkit.
This is why I do not think that you will have lot of answer since this forum is targeted toward Web Services developer (XML, SOAP, and so on)
I am inviting you to ask your question on the general Oracle Application Server - General or PLSQL forums.

Problems with contact email form

Hi there,
So I've been having lots of problems with getting an email form to work in my flash website.
The contact email form I've been attemping to get to work can be found here:
http://www.webdesignmo.com/blog/2008/08/14/flash-contact-form-in-actionscript-3/
When I start a new flash movie from scratch and follow the instructions on the site, everything works great. However, when I try to create this form within a movie symbol within my current flash site, nothing works at all. I've tried placing the submit button within the movie symbol and without and neither works. I guess my question is, why would this happen? In which circumstances would placing a form like this inside of a movie prevent the form from functioning? For instance, when I tes tthe movie, fill out the form and press the submit button, nothing happens.
Can I get some advice for whether I need to rethink implementing this form into a current flash video and what things I should check for?
Thanks so much!
Using CS3 btw.

you probably have path problems. use the trace() function to help debug your flash.

Page Layout Problems with embedded iViews

Hi all,
We are having problems with the position of the iviews in the layout page using embedded iviews. Sometime load in one order and other times in another one. I need that the iviews load in the same order always.
Any idea, please?
Thanks for all.

Hi José,
if in fact this is the case, then I would expect that the single iViews are called via different threads. If this is the case, then I would implement within the iView to wait for some result provided by the iView, which should be loaded first (for example, by putting some certain value into the http session object).
For deeper discussions on this topic see and
Hope it helps

BlackBerry Q10 problems with contacts after OS .10.3 Upgrade

I need urgent help. I have serious problems with BBQ10 aftre 10.3 update.After upgrading to the new OS, my contacts became all messed up.
1 I now have doubles, triples, and quadruples of the same names in my contacts.
2. Many names and/or numbers have vanished.
Thanks in advance for your help and support.\

Due to the number of problems with "upgrading" to this OS level, I suggest you try the very clean and very forceful AutoLoader OS Reload:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-10-OS-Device-Software/Upgrading-OS10-devices-using...
Beware that it is completely destructive...the device will be "like new"...no data, no apps, no accounts, etc. Be sure you take a full backup first, as well as make full manual documentation of all apps, accounts, configurations, etc. Sometimes a restore reintroduces the very corruption one is trying to eliminate, and manual reconfiguration is necessary.
You can also use this to fall back to a prior OS if you desire...you can install any OS level for which you can find an AutoLoader. (Hint...search over on the CB site!)
Good luck and let us know!
Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!
If anyone has been helpful to you, please show your appreciation by clicking the button inside of their post. Please click here and read, along with the threads to which it links, for helpful information to guide you as you proceed. I always recommend that you treat your BlackBerry like any other computing device, including using a regular backup schedule...click here for an article with instructions.
