Some contacts not shown as being online

I've noticed that some of my contacts on the Xbox app are not shown as online, despite them being logged on the PC and tablet next door.
As a result, I can't call them, although they are able to call the Xbox.
Not sure whether it's a fault with those devices or the individual MS account.
Just a thought, could it have something to do with those other accounts linked as family members on the xbox?
Either way it's confusing.

Hey there!
Have you by chance asked your friends if they are appearing offline on Skype? If not, make sure that they are appearing online. Also, is it just certain friends that are appearing offline or ALL of your contacts?
Cheers!

Some pictures not displayed when being online

Hello,
I would like to ask for advice, if someone has experience with following: When I am online (either on facebook, or any other webpage, some of the pictures there are not displayed) - neither on Safari nor on Google Chrome. I have tried to clear all browsing data including cookies, plug in data, cached images,..... as I believed it might help. I also checked my proxy settings, but I do not have any of them currently in use. Do you have any idea how to fix this? Thanks in advance.

Downloaded iOS Dev videos but some are not shown as downloaded in iTunes U collection

This is a 2 day old Mac Mini so maybe something is not set correctly.
I chose to download the iTunes U collection of iOS Development videos.
12 videos downloaded OK and I have been watching, the others downloaded but are not shown as downloaded (the 'Get' is still shown).
An example is the Effective iPhone App Development - Part 1
I have downloaded this now 3 times and logged out and back in, closed all applications and opened them again with no effect.
There was a comment in one Apple forum that suggested video restrictions may be preventing some downloaded videos from being displayed.
As far as I can see there are no restrictions set.
Must admit to being a bit stuck on this one.

I had the same problem. This seems like a bug.
I discovered a workaround for this problem:
Open your "iTunes Media" folder (usually at /Users/YOURUSERNAME/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media).
Inside "iTunes Media" should be a folder called "Downloads". Open it.
Now switch over to your iTunes application and start downloading the video.
Now switch back to the iTunes Media "Downloads" folder. A folder named "iTunes U" should appear. Open it. Now open the next folder which should be called "Effective iPhone App Development - Part 1 _ iOS Development Videos.tmp". Inside this temp folder you should see a file called "download.m4v" which we will deal with later.
IMPORTANT. While the video is still downloading, drag and drop any file (like a random text file) from a different location into that temp folder. If you don't drag and drop a file into the temp folder, iTunes will automatically delete the "download.m4v" video file right after it finishes downloading.
After the iTunes application is finished downloading, you can drag the "download.m4v" file out of the temp folder and onto the desktop or a different folder of your choosing. This file can now be viewed with Quicktime or any other video player.
Hope this helps!

Some contacts not displaying but are in call history and on Whats App

I think this happened after upgrading to iOS 6, but some contacts which were on my phone are no longer displaying in 'My Contacts' however when I type the number in manually they appear. They are also listed in my Whatsapp contacts so I know they are no my phone.
I have also tried checking for them on iCloud.com however they are not there either. I have also gone to contacts Groups to make sure it says display all contacts which it does.
The biggest question here is I had this problem on my 3Gs and have just got the iPhone 5 and the same issue has happened here?!?!
REALLY STUCK HERE, HELP PLEASE!!!!

Problem solved. When a contact is added on your iPhone, it doesn't necessarily go into iCloud contacts. They can go under contacts for any email you have on your phone if you have "contacts" toggled "on" under settings. Backup your phone. Then restore your phone to an old backup from prior to having problems. After that, turn off iCloud contacts on your phone, and delete them from your phone when asked. Look to see what contacts remain on your phone and add those to your iCloud. If you have a Mac computer, just email them to yourself when you go under each one and hit "share contact." Then, on your Mac, open the email and click on the ".vcf" attachment and it should put it right into your iCloud contacts. Then you can restore your iPhone back to your original backup. Go under your "Mail, Contacts and Calendars" settings and turn off your contacts for any other emails if you want to (not sure if you will have duplicate contacts if you don't).
Don't forget to make sure iCloud contacts are "on" when you are done- it may take a while for all the contacts to get back on your phone- I shut my phone off and restarted it also.
Good Luck!

Why is some text not shown after merging multiple documents

One of my clients is using Adobe Acrobat XI and they are merging multiple PDF documents (up to 1000 single PDF's!) to create one big PDF document.
But somehow just some parts of the text are not shown after the merging (it is actually still there because you can copy and paste it in to Word and you will see it again)?
Any suggestions?

Hi Wunold van Drunen,
Since you have identified the problematic pages, have you checked if the issue occurs with the same pdf when merged with a smaller number may be 10 pdfs.
How are these pdfs created? It might be possible that the said document's pdf structure is incorrect.
You may want to sanitize the said pdf's before combining and check.
Regards,
Rave

IOS 5 contacts: not shown in address book, shown in spotlight

A friend of mine with an iPhone4 and iOS5 reported to me he could not find (had lost) some contacts in the address book.
When i used the spotlight-page (swipe in the homescreen so you get to see the screen to the left of the homescreen) COULD find the contacts: you see the contact, and when selected, you get to the page in the address book with all the details.
So the contacts are there, but the Address Book just will not show them!
I am still looking for a fix for this. Does anybody know of a way to fix the indexing of the address book on the iPhone, as that might be the problem?

I had this also. My contacts were not showing in the Contacts App or the Phone App but were when I searched.
If you went to Groups from Address book it only showed an option for contacts for my Google Apps contacts.
Originally I had icloud set to not do anything with contacts because I thought they were at Google Apps. I turned on icloud for contacts. Then when I went to groups from Contacts or Phone App there was an All Contacts option which then showed all my contacts.

Messages contact: why is it telling me for some contact not registered when same ones have no problem on IPhone. Cannot send those messages from Pad

Contact not registered, what is the problem?

This does not solve the problem. I could do those before, text messages from IPad, can to some contacts and now having updated to IOS it has a problem. Not the only one with this problem. Your solution is?
Who are these people that you could send messages form your iPad to before?
Do they have iPhones or iPads?
Have they setup Messages on their devices?

SOME Contacts Not Being Pushed From iPhone to MobileMe

Some of my contacts aren't being pushed from my iPhone to MobileMe. Some aren;t being pushed from MobileMe to my iPhone. I have 51 contacts on my iPhone and 35 on my MobileMe. If i create a new contact on MobileMe it might be pushed or might not. Same goes with iPhone.
Anyone got any ideas or having the same problem? Im just using the internet based contacts because I'm on Vista

One thing to try.
Export the photo, from iphoto, that will not sync to the iphone.
Make sure the file name has an extension. (something like .jpg or .bmp)
Import the photo back into iphoto.
Now try syncing the photo to the iphone.
Hope this helps.

Contacts not shown in messages sent via PC Suite

Hi all,
OS : Windows XP SP2
Connectivity : USB CA 101
Handset : Nokia N 82
Handset details : V 30.0.019
RM-313
Issue : If i send any message from my phone, in sent folder the contact person's name will display whereas for the messages sent via pc suite's communication centre, in sent folders only numbers are displayed despite the contacts are stored in the phone, same contacts' name will displayed if a message is sent via phone??? Is it an issue? Known bug from PC Suite ???

there may be differencies between phone models here (S60 devices or S40 devices, you have S40). Also if I recall right, it used to be so that some older versions of PC Suite did not save the PC sent sms's to phone.
However, with my N95 the messages are saved. So make sure you have the latest Pc Suite and then try again. If it fails, then it might be that message saving is not supported with S40 phones (Anyone having a S40 phone could verify this)

Blackberry Q10 - Bluetooth Audio gone / Contacts not shown in HUB

Dear Blacberry Community,
I have some questions regarding my Blackberry Q10, that I use since not even a year.
1. If I buy a mobile phone from a company that wants to be the star in the business world, why do I have to solve any issues with the help from other users? That the company that produces the product is not able to fix it themselves may be part of the problems...
2. After my last recovery action the phone does not show the name for some specific contacts in the Hub, though caller ID and contacts entry is ok. Still, the Hub only shows only the number.
3. After an OS software update the phone occassionally failed to contact to my car via bluetooth to play audio files - The hands-free speakerphone always worked and works! But I used to play the MP3 files stored on my phone via bluetooth on the cars stereo system. Similar problem like this.
Sometimes it works, sometimes the option Bluetooth Audio was not available in the cars built-in stereo.
After finding no solution in the internet I decided to re-install the phone software. After recovering the phone (and loosing half of the contacts that magically got lost during the backup process, and picking up problem no.2) it worked ok - until it started again, getting worse day by day. Sometimes the music started, but on the phone, not on the car speaker.
Then came the new software update to 10.2.1.2977.
Instead of the anticipated fix this update did something unexpected. Now, the Bluetooth Audio function does not work at all, never. I already deleted the bluetooth connection with the car, and reinitiated it, but no change. Phone works, Audio doesn't.
Which basically means that I do not use the audio function anymore. Which I consider a cool statement, such as driving a Mercedes S-Class, but you can't give the three blondes on the curbside a lift, because at the last inspection the Mercedes workshop accidently removed the rear bench - and then asked you to ask other Mercedes drivers to install it back in.
Bluetooth Audio connection to bluetooth speakers works, though.
Anybody a good idea? I'm reluctant to re-install the phone again, since it damaged as much as it fixed last time. And didn't last long.
How about a software update that, for a change, fixes the problem, instead of creating it?
Thanks!

I'm having the same issues.
My NEW Q10 will work fine for phone connection in my Hyundai Elantra GT(2013). It will connect via bluetooth to similarly enable speakers(Altec theJacket - not the XL) but NO AUDIO through the connected speakers!!! This is quite frustrating. The manual says it supports about a dozen 'profiles'. The Q10 supports APT-X technology, but not many speaker manufacturers support this. The Altec XL-Jacket is twice the price of theJacket.
When will BB fix the audio streaming problem? This is a major nuiscence!

Some contacts not syncing from mac to BB

I have the Bold 9700. Prior to this I had an iPhone and kept all my contacts synced on my mac in Address Book. Now that I'm trying to use BB, the BlackBerry Desktop Software syncs *some* of my contacts, but not all of them. The contacts that are missing are actually there, but there's no information on them other than their names (so no phone number or any other info).
I've been trying to resolve this issue for the past 2 weeks but I can't find a solution. I was going to buy a new BB in March for my birthday because I actually preferred it over iPhone, but the way things are going I doubt that'll be happening

Nobody?

Confirm that the correct 'Directory' is selected for displaying the contacts (Refer Pg. 27 / 28 / 29 of the User Guide)

HT204150 adressbook empty on mac - icloud contacts not showned

My icloud contacts are not showed in addressbook, although all settings are right
Opening my adressbook on mac I see a fully empty program, not one contact is showed. Even after several times deletign and adding icloud in here.
Preferences mail, contacts settings
Icloud selected and adressbook icon as well as email are checked. But clicking on manage icloud: the adressbook icon is not showed in manage screen (email is)
Please help how I can get my contacts back on my mac as well

Do this test. Using a browser, log into icloud.com and then go tothe contacts page. If it's empty, then there are no contacts that can sync down to mac and devices. If there are none on the mac now, then somehow you made an error setting things up. The only thing left is to go into the mac's contacts app and then Enter Time machine (from the TM icon on the main menu/toolbar). From there you should be able to go back in time and restore old contacts.

I close FF and when I go to reopen it later it says it is running and I need to rerstart the system, if I Ctrl/Alt?del it is not shown as being open.

Firefox is not closing when I click on the X to close it, it seems to stay running in the background. So when I try to open it later I get a mesdsage that says FF is running, but is not showing up on my list of open programs. Windows XP. The only way to get FF to open again is to restart the computer.

Can not connect the ipad 2 to wireless router. been working fine but some reason not working now being trying to solve this since 4pm today

Can anyone help can not get my ipad to connect to wireless today. has been working fine but all of a sudden will not connect to Router. I have a kindle and a mobile and both of these will connect to the router wireless but the ipad will not.
Been to my parents with the i pad and this will connect to their wireless router.
Can not think of anything else to try

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
 Cheers, Tom
