Some icloud contacts changes when using mail in lion

I'm using icloud contacts on my iphone ios6 ipad ios6 and macbook 10.7.
All contacts are sorted by forename and last name in one line like -Steve Jobs- in one line
Some of my contacs changes when sending mail from mail 5.3 on my macbook.
It adds an extra last name and my icloud looks like -Steve Jobs-Jobs-.
and the contact gets sortet by letter j insted of s.
My mail is setup to sync gmail (mail only).
I have no other sync for contacts than icloud.
I located the problem to my mac so I deleted all accounts and restarted mail.
But promblem remains.
Is it possible to completly delete mail and all settings from libary and start fresh?

I'm not sure what the sender is using.
I wouldn't think that would matter.  Does Keynote still work on that Mac?  Try this: Drag such an attachment out of a mail message, select the file, then do a Finder File > Get Info.  What is the setting for "Open with"?  If it's not Keynote and you'd like Keynote to open all .pps files, select Keynote in the list, then click the "Change All" button.

    Sounds like you got a store demo. Look in your settings and see if you see "Demo Mode/Demonstration Mode" or something similar.

  • I can see my contacts in my iPad using the contacts app, but i cannot see a single contact being synced to the iCloud contacts section when i use my computer to log into the iCloud website?

    I am signed into the iCloud and contacts are turned on in the iCloud settings on my iPad. the iCloud account is checked in the groups area of the contacts settings. the calendar is turned on the same way and that syncs to iCloud...just not contacts.

  • Since installing iCloud I get the pinwheel a lot when using Mail

    Hi Since installing iCloud i have been getting the pinwheel on and off a lot when using mail on my macbook pro.   Does anybody know how to make that go away?   Perhaps it's going back and forth to the cloud a lot?

  • Some iCloud contacts do not display on the iPhone

    I have an iPhone and iPad.  Recently I exported my companie's contacts from Lotus Notes to a vCard and successfully imported them to my iCloud contacts.  When I sign in to iCloud on my PC all contacts show up, the number of contacts matches exactly.  When the iPad is used and only iCloud contacts are selected to synch, all contacts show up as expected.  When I do the same on my iPhone, there are about 15 contacts that for whatever reason do not show up.  Anyone ever had an issue like this?  Sounds like it could be some issue on the iPhone since the iPad is able to display all the contacts.
    I have a iPhone 5s and iPad mini, both with iOS7.1.

    Thank you for your response.  I guess I should have indicated the things that I have already tried .  I have already attempted this step couple of times on the iPhone.  I also deleted the iCloud account on the iPhone and added it back on.  None of those things had any effect.  I guess the next thing I could try is backup>full reset.

  • Is it possible to ignore "Rigid relationships between attributes cannot be changed" when using ProcessUpdate for Dimension?

    As per the title is it possible to ignore "Rigid relationships between attributes cannot be changed" when using ProcessUpdate for Dimension?
    We have a case where very rarely an item might have been miscategorised so the brand is manually changed.  We want this dimension to be rigid to speed up ProcessUpdate.
    We do a ProcessFull each night, so it will get corrected then, but during the hourly updates we would just like to ignore this error if possible?

    Hello,
    The rigid relationship should be defined when the members will not change over time. Here are some threads regarding rigid relationship for your reference, please see:

  • Why do I get a spinning wheel when using Mail

    Recently I have noticed that I get the rainbow spinning wheel when using Mail.
    I have upgraded to Mavricks
    This seems to happen when looking for an address
    Also when I attempt to move emails from inbox to another mailbox this does not happen.

    A general cure for Mail problems is Mailbox > Rebuild.  Don't know if it applies to your problem but it shoud not hurt. 
    P.S.  Have a current Time Machine or other backup before attempting any major software updates or rebuilds.

  • Why can't I see my hotmail folders when using Mail on my Mac, but I can see them when I use Mail on my iPhone, weird?

    I've set up Mail on my new Mac, but the folders I have set up in my Hotmail are not visible. Funny, coz I can see the folders when using Mail on my Iphone. Have I set the connection between Hotmail and my Mac incorrectly? It was very automated so I don't know what I did incorrectly. Can anyone out there give me a tip?
    Cheers, Paul

  • When using mail on my iMac, my folders disappeared.  Using OS X Yosemite v 10.10.1 and Mail v 8.1 How do I get them back?

    When using mail on my iMac, my folders disappeared.  I am using OS X Yosemite v 10.10.1 and Mail v 8.1 How do I get them back?

    The mailbox list is divided into categories with headings in caps, such as ON MY MAC. When you hover the cursor over one of those headings (except for MAILBOXES), you should see the word Show or Hide on the right. Click Show. The  MAILBOXES category can't be hidden.
    In each category, the mailboxes are arranged in groups, such as Inbox. To the left of each group is a small disclosure triangle. If the triangle points to the right, click it so that it points down.

  • Thin flickering white line at the very top of screen when using mail

    using an imac 27 inch, new...
    there is a thin flickering white line at the very top of screen when using mail.
    usually when sending a mail or when the cursor moves over a link ( in apple mail )
    the flickering line is just under the very top menu bar which has the date on etc...
    anyone else had this or know how to fix it?
    cheers

    I am facing the same problem. In fact mac book pro 13 retina was in the 14 day period so I got it retuned today, after directions from the apple telephone support. However, the new machine I got in exchange has the same problem or flickering line under the menu tab.
    The only relief it seems is the fact that it's not a hardware problem probably. I also think so because if I do a full screen which essentially means there is no menu bar, then there is no flickering white line.
    Hope apple fixes this. Sad to notice this drop in apple quality, and yet not fixed.

  • When using Mail and selecting the recipient, Address Book no longer shows Groups. I am forced to select from my entire alphabetized contact list. What's going on?

    Has the Address Book software changed? Or has Mail changed? For purposes of email, Address Book no longer allows me to find an addressee or several addressees who are members of one of my Groups (or Smart Groups). What happens is this: I open Mail, initiate a new email, put the cursor in the To: box and click the 'Show addresses' icon in the New Message box. The Addresses list shows up in a separate window with an alphabetized listing of all my contacts. It used to allow me to select a Group, but Groups are no longer listed. I have no choice but to select an address (or addresses) from the entire list. Needless to say, this is intolerable.
    Ultimately, I have two questions:
    What has changed and can I fix it so it works as it used to?
    If I can't fix it, what other email/address book software combination works simply and cleanly so I don't have to live with this frustration.

    This add-on may help:
    https://nic-nac-project.org/~kaosmos/morecols-en.html
    I've had this add-on for so long that I can't remember what it does and does not provide.
    If you select a List in your Address Book, so that its contents display at the right, does "Export" not write just the Lists's member Contacts out to the csv file?
    It does here, but this may be thanks to the above-mentioned add-on.

  • Why does iCloud keep demanding password when using mail

    I am using Mail for my various email accounts but the two imap accounts (AOL and iCloud) frequently get into a mode of demanding the password when Mail is launched. It might take up to 10 inputs to stop 'looping' the demand for the password. Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance
