Searching contacts for making calls very difficult...

I just found a quite annoying issue which could be easily fixed by simply moving some UI stuff around. 
When you want to make a phone call, you click on the phone app (phone icon) and you see the phone calls history list together with few buttons. I want to find a sample contact name, let's say 'Chuck Norris Junior' I click on the search icon, type 'Chuck' but as a 'Chack Norris' is my good friend and I call him regularly, there's like 300 history entries named 'Chuck Norris' which show up and I need to scroll the whole list down to finally see the 'Search contacts' link. 
this is very annoying - to the Nokia TEAM - please consider moving the 'Search Contact' link to the top of the screen so it's before the call history list and not on the bottom of it. This would make searching contacts much easier in many cases!

hmmm I could use People.. I suppose.. Just realised there's a phonebook icon beside 'search' one which gets you to the people app. The 'search' one was just the most intuitive way of starting searching contacts..
But to be honest I got rid of the People app from my home screen and would ideally totally remove it if I could, I really don't like the fact that all my recent activity is listed there and can't be removed. Eg I browse someone on facebook or talk on skype and this person automatically shows on top of my 'recent' list! that's very annoying if you don't want your whole activity to be tracked and displayed.

    Calls listing,  why repetition of the same contact for each call ?

    The link you send in your post :

    As I think you already noticed doesn't solve the problem it merly duplicates the numbers in each contact. One with +and country code and one without that...
    There has to be another solution...

  • Can i use ipad for making calls

    Can i use ipad for making mobile calls Or is it that we can use it for data only.

    The iPad is a data only device. However, you can make calls using Apps such as Facetime, Skype, Viber.

  • Buy a Verizon iPhone 4 just for making calls.  Is it worth it ?

    My wife is a Verizon Wireless customer and is eligible for a phone renewal and I would like to wait and pre-order the iPhone 4. Would it be worth the purchase if she mainly used the phone for say 85% phone call usage and 15% data usage?
    She has an LG VX9000 phone and the battery is giving out causing the phone to periodically shut off. Her main use will be for phone calling, reading news articles on line. She has never listened to music or video, except through a news article and never bothered taking pictures on her current phone.
    I suggested the iPhone 4 because she was not impressed with the Droid Incredible that she was shown at a couple of stores and I had her use my HTC MyTouch 4G phone for a few days. She said that phone was too sensitive.
    I have two concerns; will the iPhone 4 on the CDMA network affect phone calling/receiving and will battery life be an issue. Please share your thoughts.

    i'm going to answer with the assumption that you will be signing a new 2 year contract and need a new phone due to the battery. my wife and i were on tmobile with an expired contract using old dumbphones because we didn't really care about all the bells and whistles either. but we needed new phones because of batteries and my wife wanted to have a qwerty keyboard to text our daughter. we decided to go with iphone4's because we thought we might want the features within 2 years and if we don't buy it now, we will be stuck with another fairly dumbphone for 2 years. we feel we made a great decision and have ended up using a lot of the features we never thought we would. we are very glad we went ahead and bought them.

  • My macbook air keeps opening ad websites without my permission. I've removed all website data various times which hasn't worked. this is making it very difficult for me to browse. please help?

    I'm scared i have a virus. safari keeps opening windows/tabs without my permission. these are normally ads. i have removed website data various times which hasn't worked.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

  • Is there a user guide for making calls in spain?

    Traveling to spaon in a few weeks, want to know how selection of network is processed, if making a call to a local spanish number, do you have to add country code etc?

    Yes, you always need to use the full international number format when dialing International numbers from a mobile, including anyone of your contacts back in the UK if you want to contact them as well.
    For UK it's +44 then drop the first 0 from all numbers.  For Spain it will be +34 followed by the full number.
    You can set and save all your UK contact's numbers in the full international format in your handset as it will still work in that format whilst you are in the UK.
    Do make sure you ring EE before you leave to check that roaming is actually enabled on your account.

  • HT204380 message my contacts after making calls... I can't find a way to message them now!

    When I first started facetime I was able to message my contacts but since we've made calls to eachother I can't find a way to message them anymore.  How can I find the messaging again?!?!  Why can't this be more user friendly!!

    You need to start over with Music. On the iPhone Music screen uncheck sync music. Also, on the Summary screen uncheck "Manually manage music and videos", then sync and it should clear off your phone.
    Next, choose the music you want to sync. If you want to fit more on check "Convert higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC". This will reduce quality slightly, but it won't be noticable unless you are using $300 headphones.

  • I am legally blind but have suffient sight in one eye to be able to see most things.  I truly wish that the iphone would have the facility to permanently enlarge the Apps icons.  Also the Contacts file as its very difficult to see on screen.

    Does anyone think Apple will ever include permanently large App Icons and Contact in larger fonts??

    Perhaps the iPad is a better device for you, although such small tools are not the best for those who cannot see well.
    As for what Apple may or may not do in the future is speculation and that is forbidden on the forums. You can send your request to Apple at Apple Feedback.

  • Use of sim card for making calls

    Hi, I've got the new iPod, and I would like to know how do I make calls from the Ipad? Thnx

    If you wish to use a cellular data connection, you need to go into your settings and purchase and enable a cellular data plan with whichever provider supports your SIM card.
    All that does though is enable a data connection over 3G or LTE (if available) - it does not enable voice calling as the device cannot do that.  You would need to use a voice over IP app, which will use data minutes from your data plan.
    If you use a VOIP app with a wifi connection, the SIM card has nothing to do with that at all.

  • I am unable to drag my ringtone from desktop to my tones folder. New iTunes is making it very difficult. Any suggestions??

    I am unable to drop my ringtone into my tones folder that I dragged from my desktop. For some reason the tones folder won't take it. Any suggestions??

    Instead of dragging, try to "add file". Click on the Music dropbox at the leftcorner under File Edit View bar, choose Tones. Then click on the dropbox at the top left corner and select Add File to Library, from there browse to your ring ton file and add it. :-)

  • ******* me off i tried to delete a song off of my iPhone, but it just won't delete. I have tried every thing except throwing it out of the window, cause I'm so ****** off. I hate you apple for making this so difficult.

    I've tried everything that I have read, but to no avail. the song keeps comming up, it is a purchased song, maybe this has someting to do with why I can not delete it?

    What version of IOS are you running?
    To delete a song simply swipe from right to left and an option to delete will pop up.
