The SMS number of a particular contact not showing his name.

I've doubled check the number and its exactly the same in Contact.  The formatting should not be an issue because either format works on other contacts. Wat I've noticed with this particular SMS is that when I look into the properties of the number,  I cannot create a new or add it to an existing contact.  Why is that?

once the message has been sent,  while viewing the message, click the word contact at the top right.
click the i in a circle icon, The number used is highlighted,

    Contact your carrier. Caller ID is a carrier feature.

    I can't get my iphone to recognize another iphone while imessaging. The bubble will not turn blue, it remains green. I have tried tapping it and it wont change. The phone number is listed in contacts under iphone.

    Make sure your iMessage is activated. If the other person does not have a good data connection, iMessage will recognize that and fall back to a SMS. What you list the person's phone number as in Contacts does not matter.

    how can I find the Image number of a particular photo in the Photos app included with iPad Air?

    Hello yamacutta,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    The Photos app will not show you the actual file name of the photo.  However when you go through the image import process on your computer, you should be able to see both the thumbnail of the photo, as well as the filename of the image.
    Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
    Take care,

  • CS4 Upgrade, the serial number you have entered does not match the product you have selected

    I have a valid CS2 premium license and have installed CS4 upgrade to a new machine but get the dreaded error "the serial number you have entered does not match the product you have selected" Now I got this error when I originally installed in 2009, back then I could call customer service and get the problem resolved but now when I phone I get an automated message saying phone support is not available for CS4? Does anyone know of a work around or a UK number where I can get this resolved? Any help would be appreciated.

  • How do you make mobile numbers the default number used in your contacts for sending text?

    How do you make mobile numbers the default number used in your contacts for sending text?

    Go to your contacts, find the contact that you wish to text, hit 'edit', and move that contact's numbers around until the mobile number is at the top. Arduous I know, but it works. Now when you go to text that person, the mobile number should be the default.
    Best.

  • Contacts not showing up on incoming calls although it is stored on my iPhone 5

    contacts not showing up on incoming calls although it is stored on my iPhone 5

    There could be any one of three solutions... Try these:
    1. Make sure you set your own country code at Phone Dialer Screen > Options > Smart dialing.
    Set your country code in this format: "+xx" where xx = your country code. Some countries have two or three digit Country Codes. Do not place the '+' in your contact's entry.
    * In the US, set this Country Code as "+1", and place your loca area code in the proper box (this normally the default setting in a new BB).
    2. At the same location, change the National Number Length to the number of digits for your country (since some countries will have less than 10 as set as the default in the BB). Find out the total digits, minus the country code. Do not place the '+' in your contact's entry.
    * For example, some countries have a total number to 8 (plus 3 for country code). You would enter "8".
    3. You may have "Content Protection" set on your Address Book.
    Look at Options > Security > General Settings. Scroll down to Content Protection > Include Address Book = NO.
    On your device, it could be at Options > Password.

  • What is the maximum number of characters in an Oracle 10G Instance Name

    All,
    Can I know what is the maximum number of characters in an oracle 10g instance name under AIX? Is it 7 characters or 8 characters?
    regards
    Santhosh

    One should really make the difference between db_name and instance_name: if instance_name default value is db_name it can be different
    (even on a non RAC database).
    For example with Oracle 10.2.0.4 you can create a database named DB78 with instance_name=DB12345678:
    $ uname -a
    Linux lx01.localdomain 2.6.18-92.el5 #1 SMP Fri May 23 22:17:30 EDT 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
    $ ps -fu oracle | grep smon
    oracle    6353     1  0 20:30 ?        00:00:01 ora_smon_DB12345678
    oracle    6412  5596  0 20:37 pts/1    00:00:00 grep smon
    $ export ORACLE_SID=DB12345678
    $ sqlplus / as sysdba

    NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
    db_file_name_convert                 string
    db_name                              string      DB78
    db_unique_name                       string      DB78
    global_names                         boolean     FALSE
    instance_name                        string      DB12345678
    lock_name_space                      string
    log_file_name_convert                string
    service_names                        string      DB78I would not recommend this practice: but it's interesting to know to avoid confusing between db_name and instance_name.

  • Contacts not showing up

    Im having a problem with my iphone 4. My contacts are in my phone when i search for them and also show up in my recent calls and text messages. However, whenever i touch contacts to bring up the list none of them are there. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Hello everyone!
    For all of you out there who have received phone calls, text messages, etc, and have tried adding a contact by means other than directly via the contacts app only to have your contact not show up ANYWHERE (except maybe in a spotlight search), this quick troubleshooting guide is for you.
    Disclaimers: This can be performed on an Apple computer, I do not troubleshoot for PC's (however, anyone who knows their way around computers can easily modify the steps for a PC). This method can also be used if you sync your contacts via MobileMe like I do, and should work for the iPhone 3G, 3GS, and 4. I have the latest OS on my iPhone, but it should work with any recent OS. My iTunes has been updated to the most recent version.
    Step 1: Open Address Book on your mac. Make sure your address book view is extended to show your groups in the left column. Under groups, everyone will have a group labeled "All Contacts". If that's the only group you have, it's time to create another one. Click the "+" at the bottom of your group column and name your new group whatever you want. For my purposes (as this was an iPhone issue), I named my new group "iPhone Contacts". Do not add any contacts from "All Contacts" to your new group, as this will be unnecessarily redundant. Close Address Book, you're done with it.
    Step 2: Open iTunes and plug in your iPhone. Hopefully you have your settings to manually sync when you plug your iPhone into iTunes, otherwise wait until it's synced to continue. Click the "Info" tab in iTunes. The first option is Sync Address Book Contacts. Make sure this option is checked. Under the first subheading, make sure "All contacts" is checked. Below the groups box, there will be a line that says "Add contacts created outside of groups on this iPhone to:" and make sure this is checked as well. (Bonus info- Unless you created a contact directly via the contacts app on your iPhone, that contact ends up in another list. This is why you can't see it right now.) At this moment is where that new contact group you created in Address Book comes into play. Use the drop-down menu to the right of this option to select that group (remember mine was "iPhone Contacts"). Do not change anything else. Now click "Sync" in the bottom right corner of iTunes.
    Step 3: Once your iPhone is synced, open the Contacts app on your iPhone. If it opens to a contact list, tap the "Groups" button in the upper left corner of the screen. You should see two or three sections. The top section will simply be "All Contacts". The second section will be titled "From My Mac" and will display both "All from My Mac" and the new group you created in Address Book. If you use MobileMe, you will have a third section titled "[email protected]", under which your MobileMe contact group will fall. Make sure you tap the top group, "All Contacts". You will find those "missing" contacts now listed among all your other ones.
    Bonus: If you find you have duplicate contact names but neither contact has a full information card, you can edit the contact, scroll to the bottom and tap the "Link contacts" button, then link your duplicates to insure you have all the info you want.
    Success!! If you have any questions, let me know.
