Sharing Phone - Protecting Contacts From Accidental Dialing

I have a smartphone that also syncs up real-time to my work email and contacts via touchdown.
I also let my kids/spouse use the phone from time to time.  how do I ensure that they can use the phone and dial someone, without accidentally calling one of my business contacts?
Right now, my contacts are easily available on the phone application and my child/spouse could easily dial one of them up by accident which could lead to embarrasing situations.
thanks

It will be happened, only if you tap a name with single phone number, so you need no select which number of him/her you want to call. Some may prefer there should be a prompt before calling like it's seems you want to say, but others will consider a needless prompt there will slow down calling procedure.

  • Protect object from accidental deletion

    When I first tested this, I noticed that protect object from accidental deletion adds and explicit deny for everyone to delete and delete subtree for that object only. However, after testing a bit further, I noticed that if you create a protected OU inside
    another protected OU, the parent OU will also gain the ACE deny Delete All Child Objects for the everyone group.
    Now, why on earth would that be a good thing?? I know most of you will answer "because of accidental deletion" but if that's the case then the child OU should also have the same rights (and all the problems that are inherited with the having of
    these rights).
    A move of an object is a create on the target OU and a delete on the parent OU. This basically means that if you have:
    An OU named "Groups" that is protected from deletion, with a child OU called "Specific Groups" also protected from deletion, with a Group called "My Test Group" under "Groups" OU and another group called "My Specific
    Test Group" under "Specific Groups" OU then "My Test Group" cannot be moved, deleted, etc whilst "My Specific Test Group" can, despite the fact that both OUs are protected from deletion. Even if you then delegate rights to
    Create, Move and Delete groups because the deny takes precedence the delegation would be useless...
    Unless you are an organization where you never have an OU inside an OU containing other objects, how would you possibly benefit from this, and is there a way (without doing it manually) protect ONLY OU's from deletion without protecting child objects?

    Hi Marcin,
    It does facilitate OU protection, but by default in 2008 R2 when you create an OU it is set to be protected. Ensuring people untick the box and then manually protect that OU (by assigning rights directly to it rather than ticking the box) every time an OU
    is created for something as futile as preventing an OU from being deleted is almost a complete waste of time and the effort vs utility almost dictates that we'd be better off not having the prevent accidental deletions there at all. After all, we've survived
    Windows 2000 and 2003 without this functionality...
    As for the scenario, I'll give you a very simple example:
    You have Workstations under Workstations>Department Name>Desktops. You obviously have several GPOs linked at either one of those 3 places. All of a sudden, as part of testing a new deployment, you are required to add another GPO to the existing ones.
    As part of the testing phase, you create a Dev OU under Desktops and link the new GPO to the new Dev OU. At the same time that you do this, do you really go and create a new OU under Desktops to hold all the already existing objects under desktops and therefore
    prevent having any leaf-level objects and an child OU under the same parent OU? You could claim that a better way of doing it would be to create a Test OU at the top level of Workstations, but then you'd have to work out the effective permissions and GPOs
    at the other OU level and replicate it on the newly created one...

  • Can't phone all contacts from Mac with Yosemite.

    I can't phone all contacts from my Mac with Yosemite. Some of the audio icons are greyed out. Any solutions?

    hmmmm....*strokes beard*
    I'm assuming you want to transfer all your contacts between sim and phone memory all at once.
    to do this, go to contacts on your phone then select "options", then select "Mark\Unmark". You then get a little side menu. in this side menu select "Mark All". all you phone contact should now have ticks next to them. Now Press "Options" again and now you should have the option to "Copy to sim Directory". and from sim to phone do this in reverse.
    Peace out

  • HT204150 How do I separate my phone's contacts from another phone's contacts in iCloud?

    When i synched my contacts to iCloud, another phone's contacts went on to my phone.

    I think we need more information.
    You synced your contacts to iCloud - were there any contacts already in iCloud when you did this?  Or was the iCloud account new?  Had it been used previously by other devices?
    Is the other phone (that provided additional contacts) syncing to the same iCloud account?  Is this YOUR other iphone, or does it belong to someone else. 
    (Different users should use their own icloud accounts - that's how it's designed to work.  You wouldn't want different users sharing the same emails, contacts, events, data from individual apps, etc. - at least most users wouldn't want all data shared with others.)

  • Syncing phone book/contacts from iphone 3GS to Iphone4

    Hey,
    I just got the iphone 4 - put in the smaller sim card required and am now wondering how do I transfer my phone book from my previous 3GS to the new sim card/phone.
    My old computer crashed, and am using my laptop on which I just installed Itunes.

    I believe the best way is to use iTunes to sync the contacts from your 3GS into a 3rd party program such as Outlook. Then, use iTunes to sync the contacts from Outlook to your new iPhone 4.

  • Replacing contacts on phone w/ contacts from Mac?

    My Contacts are a MESS! I'm looking for a solution to clean them up.
    Here's the situation: My wife and daughter have plugged their phones into my MacBook Pro (without my knowledge) and all of our contacts have gotten merged together; so I have 3 times the contacts I need or want on my phone. AND, there are multiple duplicates as well. It fills up a ton of space and it's a real pain to search through.
    What I would LIKE to do: 1. Delete ALL the contacts that are on the iPhone. 2. Organize and clean up the contacts (Address Book) on my MacBook Pro, so that I only have the contacts that I want and none of the duplicates. 3. Load all the (organized) contacts from my MacBook Pro onto the iPhone.
    My iPhone is a 4S
    Is this possible? If so, how do I delete the contacts on my iPhone - can I do it en mass, or do I have to go through and delete each one individually? Once I have the contacts cleaned up in Address Book on my MacBook, how do I transfer them to my iPhone?
    If there's another way of cleaning up this mess, please let me know. I really need a solution to this problem!

    Yeah, I fixed the problem of them getting on my computer - I bought them MacBooks! LOL!
    I'm missing something. If I do as you suggest, won't the contacts on the phone drop into the Address Book as part of the Sync? I mean, when I create a new contact on my phone it's always appeared in my Address Book on the Mac after the next sync. That's sort of the idea of Syncing, isn't it - So that new contacts from one device are included, and backed up, on the other device? If this IS the case, wouldn't all the contacts I don't want (that are currently on the phone) simply get dropped into Address Book when I sync, putting me back on square one?

  • Protect documents from accidental deletion/modification by site administrator

    Hi,
    I have several documents in a SharePoint site that should never be modified/deleted (except under extraordinary circumstances), so I'd like to make sure that even when logged in as Site Administrator I can't delete/edit these documents accidentally (though
    obviously I'd be able to grant myself permission to do so). I've tried just about every combination of permissions I can think of (at site collection, site, list and document level) but to no avail.  Surely I'm missing something obvious?
    The closest I've got is putting them in a library requiring check out and having them checked out to the system account, but that's far from ideal.
    Thanks
    Dylan

    that's not easy thing you trying to achieve. One thing manage your recycle because if a document deleted from a user, its still recover able in 60 days or what ever setting you select.
    here is if you want create a event reciever: http://www.the14folder.com/2011/07/20/prevent-accidental-deletion-sharepoint/
    or in 2013 you can use Ediscovery feture.

  • How to copy all contacts from Phone Book to SIM Ca...

    Dear All,
    How will I copy all my Phone Book contacts from the N72 Memory to SIM Card.
    Thanks.
    D.Mukherjee.

    Go to contacts > options > mark all > copy to SIM memory.
    The phone will not copy all the data for contacts with multiple entries. It will only copy the 1st line.

    Everything that you have checked in your icloud settings will be shared between devices using the same Apple ID.  If you don't want icloud to share that information, then simply turn off that process under settings > icloud

  • Whilst updating my boyfriends phone after backing up to iTunes it accidentally got disconnected. when reconnected it synced all contacts from my phone back instead. can this be reversed and his data retrieved ?

    whilst updating boyfriends iPhone 4 it got accidentally unplugged from iTunes's .
    when reconnected it starting syncing all contacts from my phone and did not list his phone in
    the devices drop down bar.
    help everything gone from his phone and now he has some of my contacts and his phone says
    its called Emma iPhone now instead of Tony's iPhone.
    where has his back up data got stored?

    Your only choice at this point is to restore your iphone. Since it appears from your post that you have never synced to this computer, you of course will not have a backup to restore from. That means your only choice is to restore as a new device & re-sync your itunes content. Unfortunately, all of your contacts, calendars, pics in your camera roll, etc., will be lost. Its not a good idea to use the iphone or any phone for that matter as a storage device, as things like this can & do happen. You should be syncing on a regular basis. The first thing done when you do sync is an iphone backup. You should also transfer pics in your camera roll to a supported application on your computer on a regular basis, much like any digital camera. You can always sync pics back to your phone, but if the only copies are on the phone, you run the risk of losing them.
    See if you can force the phone into recovery mode:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.

  • How do I change which phone number from a contact will be dialed when I push a favorite in phone?

    How do I change which phone number from a contact will be dialed when I push a favorite button in phone? For example if a favorite dials a contact's office number and I want their cell to be called instead.

    Thanks again Chris.
    I was simply going to write that you were incorrect and there are no plus signs either, but I was certian you knew what was supposed to happen, and that I wasn't going soft either. So after staring at it for a while it just came to me: the file was full! I deleted just one favorite and both the plus and the Add to Favorites button appeared where you described.
    Thanks for your help,
    Larry

  • My husband and I use the same apple ID, I have just started using an iPhone and deleted all his contacts from my phone. He hadn't backed up his iPhone but my iPad is backed up to iCloud. Is there any way I can retrieve his contacts from there?

    My husband and I use the same apple ID. I started using a new iPhone and deleted his contacts from my phone which has also deleted them from his phone. He hasn't backed up his phone but my iPad is backed to iCloud. Can I retrieve the contacts from this?

    In preferences turn on iTunes sharing in iTunes preferences and keep iTunes turned on in both accounts. Or better yet put the iTunes library on the main HD rather than in an account and set the location of the library to that location in iTunes preferences.

  • TS4036 I purchased an iphone for my daughter and we are using the same account and she deleted some contacts from her phone and they were deleted off of my contacts as well. Is there a way to use icloud backup to reinstall the contacts to my phone?

    I purchased an iphone for my daughter and we are using the same account and she deleted some contacts from her phone and they were deleted off of my contacts as well. Is there a way to use icloud backup to reinstall the contacts to my phone?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You can only restore them from a Computer backup. This has occurred because you are sharing an iCloud account. ideally you should each have your own iCloud account, that way you can each manage your own mail, contacts, calendars, documents etc and avoid unintentional deletions and unwanted editing. If there is information you wish to share between you, this can be done with a secondary account.
    Having separate iCloud accounts, doesn't mean you have to have separate iTunes accounts, so whilst you keep your personal data separate, you can continue to share music, apps, books, TV shows, movies etc.

  • HT204053 I somehow erased all my contacts from my IPHONE, how can i export them from icloud to my phone?

    I somehow erased all my contacts from my iPhone, how can I export my contacts from my icloud account from my PC?

    joephilipose,
    If the contacts are still in Address Book on your computer, but just not on the phone, you can tell iTunes to force replace the contacts on your phone with those from your computer. You can do this by going into the Info tab when your iPhone is connected, and checking the Contacts box under the Advanced section at the bottom of the page.
    You may also want to backup your Address Book information as well. It's a good idea to make periodic backups of your contact and calendar information in case information accidentally gets deleted or changed. You can find out how to backup your Address Book data here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AddressBook/4.0/en/ad961.html
    To backup your iCal information, follow the steps in this article:

  • Retrieving contacts from phone before

    My friend recently COMPLETELY locked herself out of her BBM. We tried the link forgot password. But to no avail. Subsequently she is not able to access any function on the phone.
    We agreed that SECURITY WIPE is the way to go.The concern is how will she retrieve her contacts which were saved on the device. Please advice how we can go about this dillema

    1. Which contacts does your friend wish to save?
    Her BBM contacts? BBM contacts will be connected with her BBID if she ever remembers her BBID password.
    The device contacts, will not be saved if they are ONLY saved on the devivce. If your friend has ever performed a backup of her BlackBerry to her PC, or has BlackBerry Protect installed and backing up, she should be able to restore those contacts from the PC or Protect.
    So, more information from you (or  her) is required for a specific answer.
    1. If any post helps you please click the below the post(s) that helped you.
    2. Please resolve your thread by marking the post "Solution?" which solved it for you!
    3. Install free BlackBerry Protect today for backups of contacts and data.
