Random contact details missing

I've synced my contacts between my mac and iPhone via mobileme but some contact details seem to be missing. All the names are there but some have lost particular details; some the email addresses some the postal addresses etc. I can't see any pattern to it but it is a bit annoying.
Also how does suspending the search function on discussion boards help performance - surely it leads to people posting multiple messages for the same problem.

*Update*
Did the restore and STILL no luck... in my address book i have kust names and photos of contacts but NO contact information... no email addresses, street addresses OR phone numbers... I can't figure out what has gone wrong or is mobileme-sync down at the moment?
Anyone have any ideas??? PLEASEEEE

Syncing from e71 - some contact details missing

Hi
I recently did my first sync (one way - to server) of my contacts from my E71. Mostly it worked well but for about 5 or 6 of my 70 or so contacts some details (usually phone numbers) did not come through. They were listed as 'telephone' in the phone contacts. I tried changing the label to 'mobile' but it made no difference, and also tried changing the formats to remove the +44 at the start, but again, made no difference - is there a reason why this happens some times?
many thanks

Contact details missing, only see numbers, no names or address

Hi, my phone contacts became in recognizable overnight. Basically they became numbers instead of names. Whst should I do other than sync my phone with the contacts list that were not up to date. Please help

Try this
Restart iPhone: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for phone to restart (no data will be lost).

It is locked to your sisters carrier.
She would have to ask her carrier if they unlock iPhones and if she qualifies for this service.

Missing Contact Details in Text address book

I have a 6500c and have noticed that i have a full list of contact details in my address book (sync'd with my PC) but when i go to send a text and access my address book via the text window i am missing about 100 names...
any ideas what's wrong and how to sort it out?
cheers

I did have all addresses downloaded through icloud when I first purchased my iphone 5 but since then I have attached various photos to people in my address book on my imac and would now like those details to be shown on my iphone.
Mac OS X version 10.7.5
Iphone 5.

Not able to see a narative report from a contact detail page.

In the URL of the weblink, I set up the link to the report as follow:
https://secure-ausomxdca.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/analytics/saw.dll?Go&Path=/shared/Company_31844_Shared_Folder/WEB+APPLET/FAX+to+contact&Action=Navigate&P0=1&P1=eq&P2=Contact."Contact ID"&P3%%%Id%%%
but when I right click on the weblink on the contact detail page I get this:
https://secure-ausomxdca.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/analytics/saw.dll?Go&Path=/shared/Company_31844_Shared_Folder/WEB+APPLET/FAX+to+contact&Action=Navigate&P0=1&P1=eq%0d%0a&P2=Contact.%22Contact+ID%22&P3ADBA-3AYF6O
I get %22&P3ADBA-3AYF6O at the end of the URL when I should get %%%Id%%%.
What could have happened? How can I fix this?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Actually thats correct. When you specify %%%Id%%%, it gets replaced with actual row id which is "ADBA-3AYF6O" in your case.
One mistakeI noticed, '=' is missing after P3 it should be

one fine day yesterday, my i phone just hangup lost all contact detail. The screen only show a picture depicting cable connection to iTune. I have tried to restore iphone to factory setting but not working . May i know how to proceed to recover lost contacts.

I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

Cannot search iCloud sync'd Contact details in Outlook instant search

Relevent topology:
iCloud (contact database) > iCloud Control Panel for Windows v1.1 > 32-bit Outlook 2010 (fully updated)
I am able to perform "Instant Search"'s on iCloud sync'd contacts in Outlook. What I am having trouble with is trying to performa "Instant Search" on the contact details, which works flawlessly on normal Outlook-generated contact folders.
As this document (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4861) explains some issues with the Outlook Calendar, I was wondering if there was a similar issue with Contacts, and if there are any work-arounds.
Thank you

I've had a very painful experience with multilingual support on Microsoft's products and this is one reason that I ditched Windows Mobile (the other being that I was terrified by its user friendliness).
To be honest, I'd be perfectly happy to ditch Microsoft Outlook as soon as a perfect substitute for Outlook Tasks appears on the Mac OS X platform (NB: I am aware of the iPhone/iPad task management solutions or the web-based ones - I am not interested in those).
From the entire Outlook suite, Apple covers Mail, Calendar, Contacts reasonably well. They are not so advanced in features as Outlook but they do the job. Tasks is the only one that doesn't exist on Mac OS X - to my knowledge, at least. If someone knows something I don't, then please fill me in on the missing bits.
I can see the benefit of the iCloud but only among Apple's devices. I think that once it hits the PC platform, issues are propping up (inevitably).
Is anyone aware of whether this issue still persists in MS Outlook 2010? I am using Outlook 2007 for now as I don't any reason for the upgrade. But if the situation with those iCloud sync folders in Outlook is better in the 2010 version, then I might think about upgrading.

Contacts repeatedly missing

just upgraded to windows 8.1
palm os 5.2.1
has been syncing using the acceeca system, but now contacts are missing from the desktop software.
Using restore by import works, but the database disappears every time I close and come back to Palm.
sync appears to work, but again the desktop contacts vanish
running as Adminstrator hangs on palm pilot flash screen
never starts.
any ideas

Hello, and Welcome to the HP Support Community!
If syncing used to work after you upgraded to Win8, but now it doesn't, I would suggest you uninstall and reinstall Palm Desktop and the Aceeca drivers. Something has changed on the PC.
Here are the "Clean Uninstall" instructions.
These instructions are for Vista but should work for Win7/8.
You should first make a copy of your data to have just in case something happens. You can find your data files by going to Start --> Documents --> Palm OS Desktop. Highlight your Palm Desktop username and right click and copy. Then go to your PC desktop right click on a blank spot and select paste.
If this is the first time you are installing Palm desktop and encountering a problem, skip the previous step. If you are not concerned about your data at this point, skip the next step.
Now you want to uninstall Palm Desktop and remove everything that has to do with Palm Desktop from your computer. Go to the following locations on the PC and delete the folders listed below. C:\Program Files\Palm or Palm One C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata\local\virtualstore\Program Files\Palm or PalmOne C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata *Note you may need to view hidden folders to get to appdata. To do that go into your control panel and open folder options. Go to view tab and uncheck hide hidden files.
When using Palm desktop 6.2, look in my documents or documents and delete the PalmOS desktop folder. This is the location of the PD 6.2 data files.
Once this is done you will need to delete some registry keys from your PC Operating System.
Word of warning, going here and deleting the wrong thing can cause your PC from starting up, crashing and deletion of programs and data. If you feel you are unsure of yourself, see if you have a friend that can help you or a PC technician that you can pay to help you. This procedure will show them everything they need to delete. To make sure we have a good copy of the current registry, we need to do a backup of the Registry.
Go to start on the PC, in the search field type "regedit.exe" without quotes.
Highlight COMPUTER, go to File --> Export. Should pop up with a Save As box. Current location is fine, should be in My Documents or save to a location you will remember. In the file name on the bottom type "backup[todaysdate]" i.e. backup07072008. Next, the hard part.
The easiest way to make sure your working with the correct key, highlight the key i.e. palm quick install, and press delete on your keyboard. It will ask you, are you sure. Say yes. Do the same thing for all keys below.
If you make a mistake, stop what you are doing. And call a PC technician. BUT do not turn off your computer.
The reg keys are as follows (Note: some of theses reg keys will not be here but if they are delete them)
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Palm Quick Install * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\PalmOne File Transfer * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm, Inc. * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmDesktopAutorun * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\palmOne * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmSource * HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\PalmSource or anything else that says palm
Next reboot your computer.
Then reinstall your Palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. If it asks you for a username, enter the name that is on your device in the upper right corner of the hotsync screen.

Recent contact details disapeared

I was recently roaming on my iphone 4, and was replying to a text when i saw the name at the top change to a number?
A little later i tried to retrive a telephone number and the person that i was looking for was no longer there? Upon futher checking i found that a number of recently added numbers (back about 3 to 4 months) had also disapeared?
I thought that it may have been something to do with roaming in another country, but back home now and contact have still not returned.
About the same time back as above, i added a gmail (New job) account, and on checking in gmail i have found that the telephone numbers are also missing from my contact details within my gmail account, of the contacts that i set up since starting this account?
Icloud is turned on and when i checked my hotmail account the contact information is stored there?
How do i get it back on my phone?

Hi, I am not sure now.
I was under ithe impression that it was iCloud, but after this experience I don't know?
Anything you can suggest to help?

Random contact numbers have been deleted/erased from my contacts list.

As the title says, after having a number ring me the other day ( my father), which I recognised, I checked my contacts list and discovered that numerous random contacts now have no number listed with them.
What could have caused this and is there any way that I can recover them?
I have not synced the phone for a while now and Im pretty sure that my father had rung me since the last time the phone was synced and his number was still logged at that time.

IPhone 4 - iOS 5 upgrade - LOST ALL CONTACT DETAILS

I upgraded to iOS 5 and now I can't get to any of my contact details.
What I have -
The list of my contacts is displayed under the contacts option, but when I touch any contact name it takes me back to the home screen. Can't make any phone calls. But I can receive phone calls and the caller-id displays the correct name too. So my guess is the information is there somewhere, I just can't seem to find it or use it.
What I have tried so far -
1) Resynced contacts from the Info tab in iTunes. I get the following error msg - "iTunes couldnot sync contacts to the "iPhone" because contacts are being synced over-the-air
2) turned off sync over wi-fi from iTUnes. Tried syncing again. Same error message as above.
3) Tried going to "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" under settings, it takes me back to home screen. It displays the "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" details screen for about half a second and takes me back to home screen.
4) Went to iCloud under settings and tried to turn off teh "Contacts" from there. It simplays doesn't turn off. I can turn off everything else listed under there, but contacts. No matter what I do, it stays on.
5) Signed into iCloud.com with my account. The contacts info there has only one contact listed (mine).
6) Tried to edit contact details from one of my recent text messages. Doesn't work. Takes me backto home screen.
Does anyone have any ideas about how to fix this. At this point I can't even use the main function a phone should be performing, i.e. make calls from my stored contacts.

I had the same problem. Time Machine proved invaluable here. I opened up Address Book, selected "All Contacts", started up TIme Machine via Spotlight, and scrolled back to the day before I ran the 4.2.1 updater. Bada bing, all contacts restored to the address book! Simply did an iPhone sync after that and all was well again.
Still, nasty bug Apple. :-|

I recieved a scam email from apple. then sent me the same email using my own email account. how do I report this to apple. can't find any contact details.

hi over the past month have received maybe 5 scam emails from apple.
I opened one the other day cause I thought well maybe it is from apple.
went through the steps and it was amazed at how well they did at copying apple website. you could even go to the apple shop page from their page!
what set me off that it was fake was that I tried to open the other apple pages along the top and it wouldn't let me. so I opened my own apple page and logged in. and realised that they don't ask for your bank details in your Apple ID account.
anyways so now what has happened is I got an email today " from myself" with this same scam email. it is as if they have hacked my email account and sending me these emails. I want to report this to apple but am unable to find any contact details apart from call back options. does any one have any advice on this.

I've had that same exact issue, I received the first e-mail claiming to be from Apple last night (though over the past week I've received two other scam e-mails from different addresses claiming that my bank transactions have been aborted). It said it was from my own address, and I checked it closely to make sure it wasn't a spoof account but found it was indeed my own e-mail address. Five minutes ago I changed my password, and I have just now received a second e-mail exactly the same, still coming from my own account. My best guess at an explanation is that it may have been sent before I changed my password and there was just a delay in the message sending, resulting in it coming through after changing my password.
I've now forwarded the e-mail on as an attachment to the [email protected] address, however this still doesn't help me with regards to stopping these e-mails. It concerns me that even though I changed my password they still possibly have access to my account. I tried checking my account activity but as opening the mail app on my iPhone is considered as a log in and I check it almost twice an hour, it's impossible to tell which could possible be an intruder logging in.

Mail keeps opening in the background when accessing contact details

I'm using iPhone 3G
I have an App called FreeMemory (from the AppStore) than can view all running apps in the background.
What I'll do is check FreeMemory and I can see that Mail is NOT running.
Then I go ahead and open Contacts and tap on a particular contact name (I noticed that it takes a while to open the details of a particular contact).
After that I close Contacts and go back to FreeMemory. Now I see Mail running in the background.
(but when I only open Contacts and scroll through the list and I dont tap a contact name, it WONT open the Mail app).
I can conclude that accessing a contact detail also opens Mail app which eats RAM since im using only iPhone 3G which has small RAM.
*PLEASE note that all my mail accounts are already INACTIVE/DISABLED and my Fetch options are OFF and set to Manual. Also, I DONT have any email adress info of my contacts stored in their names.
Any idea how I can prevent Mail from opening when I access contact details??
thanks!
