Unable to set up Groups in my iPod touch Contacts application.

Can't see how to organize my contacts into Groups. My iPod touch just shows "All contacts" and I don't see any way to create Groups in iTunes either. I checked the iPod touch online manual and it mentions the Groups but says nothing about setting them up. I have been using the palm system for years but I am switching out. I am willing to reenter a few 100 contacts myself, but I do need to organize them into Groups. Please help.

Restore it. Maybe that helps.

  • Warning! task_eval_init(): unable to set User/Group baseDN

    Hi,
    I have installed Directory server on Unix platform.
    Installation went successful. While doing the installation, I have given the userid to run the server as "admxxx" and group as "www".
    After the installation, the server started properly but with a warning message that "warning: daemon is running as super-user". And I was able to open the console and do whatever I wanted.
    We have created 3 more directory server instances and we imported an LDIF file into one of the instances successfully.
    Now the problem is, whenever we start the admin server, we are getting the following message.
    bash-2.03# ./start-admin
    Info: Cache expiration set to 600 seconds
    Warning! task_eval_init(): unable to set User/Group baseDN
    Netscape-Administrator/4.2 B2002.057.2313
    startup: listening to http://servername, port 6061 as root
    warning: daemon is running as super-user
    Can any one tell why I am getting the message Warning! task_eval_init(): unable to set User/Group baseDN ?
    This is very urgent. We have configured this LDAP to SiteMinder server.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Murthy

    zhangping,
    I don't recognize your error. But are you using ldap for logging into SunMC ? This is not possible.

  • [SOLVED] sudo: unable to set runas group vector: Invalid argument

    I recently made the (idiotic) mistake of overwriting my /etc/passwd and /etc/group files, although I managed to restore them from a backup.  Since restarting the machine I'm having the same issue every time I invoke sudo:
    sudo: unable to set runas group vector: Invalid argument
    I can't find any info on this error. Any ideas on where to start?
    Thanks,

    EDIT: I should also note that this is a headless machine that I'm accessing via SSH.

    Thanks for the reply, Amish.
    It's my understanding that the 'group vector' is a term that refers to the specific set of groups to which a user has membership, rather than a specific group named 'vector'.  Although, I could be mistaken.
    From the sudo manpage:
    The -P (preserve group vector) option causes sudo to preserve the user's group vector unaltered. By default, sudo will initialize the group vector to the list of groups the target user is in. The real and effective group IDs, however, are still set to match the target user.
    Similarly, from the sudoers manpage:
    By default, sudo will initialize the group vector to the list of groups the target user is in. When preserve_groups is set, the user's existing group vector is left unaltered. The real and effective group IDs, however, are still set to match the target user. This flag is off by default.
    But the manpages don't offer me much, I'm still clueless as to why I'm getting the error.
    EDIT: although using the -P flag seems to allow sudo to run without error

  • My husband and I have upgraded our phones (iPhone 4s and iPhone 5) to the iPhone 5s.  We have given 2 of our kids the "old" phones and want to set them up as an iPod touch.  Both kids have email and need to be able to text (iMessage).

    My husband and I have upgraded our phones (iPhone 4s and iPhone 5) to the iPhone 5s.  We have given 2 of our kids the "old" phones and want to set them up as an iPod touch.  Both kids have email and need to be able to text (iMessage).
    I have read multiple posts on how to do this and I am still confused.
    Apple ID/ICoud:
    We want to be able to monitor what they do, but do not want their devices linked to our emails/contacts/etc...  Each kid has their own email account.  So, from what I have read the best way to do this is to use our family Apple ID, but set them up with a separate iCloud account?  Is this correct?
    Reset/Restore/DFU:
    To start fresh we have done multiple factory resets.  I did one that someone said was a DFU and a plan ol' factory reset, etc...  Not sure the difference.  However, when I do that I get the "hello" screen and am able to start setting the phone up anew.  However, when I go to set the phone up as an iPod I end with the same result.
    So, here is what I am doing (tell me what I am doing wrong):
    Hello Screen
    Asks me to select language and selecting:  English
    Select Your Country or Region:  United States
    Choose a Wi-Fi Network:  select my home wi-fi network
    Enter password:  entered my home wi-fi network password
    Activiate iPhone - wants me to enter Apple ID and Passwordsays that this iphone is currently linked to an Apple ID (k*******@gmail.com).  Sign in with the Apple ID that was used to set up this iPhone.
    Location Services - I have enabled location services
    Set Up iPhone
    Set Up as New iPhone
    Apple ID
    Options are to sign in with your Apple ID or Create a Free Apple ID
    Or I could "skip this step"
    I signed in with my Apple ID
    Terms and Conditions - Agree
    iCloud - I can select either to use iCloud or Don't Use iCloud - I selected use iCloud
    Find My iPhone - I can select either to use find my iPhone or to not - I selected use find my iphone
    Once I do this it says iMessage and FaceTime and shows the following:
    my email
    my other child's cell phone number
    and my husband's work phone number
    This is where things do not make sense.  I only want the phone set up with the current child's email address.  Where did I go wrong?

    There are a number of Apple services: iMessage, FaceTime, iCloud, Game center, Find My iPad, etc.
    Now, to share apps, music and books you need to have the same Apple ID:
    iPad's Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID > Your purchasing Apple ID.
    For the other service, your wife should have her own Apple ID.
    All she needs is a valid e-mail address, apply Apple ID below:

  • How do you set up iCloud on the iPod touch if it says too many apple accounts have been signed onto the device

    How do you set up iCloud on the iPod touch if it says too many apple accounts have been signed onto the device.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately you will need to create your Apple ID (account) on another mobile device or a Mac computer. Once three iCloud accounts have been created on an iOS device, it doesn't matter what you do to that device, no further accounts can be created on it.

  • What is the factory setting pin code for my ipod touch?

    im looking to make a purchase in app on my ipod touch and i need to switch off the restrictions under general settings. in order to this i need the pin code which is 4 digits. this must be factory set as ive not set it previously.
    thanks

    A: what is the factory setting pin code for my ipod touch?

    There is no default setting. You have to set the passcodes. If you cannot remember them, then see:
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
    Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
    Follow these steps to restore your device:
    Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
    Connect your device to your computer.
    Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
    Select the Summary tab.
    Select the Restore option.
    When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not necessary to create another.
    Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up, you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
    When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple logo while starting up:

    I have a new ipod touch and it says choose to set up as a new ipod touch or restore from a backup. If I choose restore from a backup will my old ipod continue to maintain the ability to be synced on my same account?

    Yes. It will not effect your other iPod.
    However. change the name of the newer iPod if necessary to avoid confusion if the second one is named the same as the first

  • Ipod touch mail application after installing 2.0

    Hi,
    Since new iTunes 7.7 & 2.0 firmware installation, it's impossible to run mail on Ipod touch.
    Application quit immediatly and it's also impossible to delete mail acount on ipod touch.
    After many restorations the problem is still alive.
    I guess i'm not the only one...
    Please need some help...
    PO

    HI, I think i found the solution
    1- Restore ipod with 2.0 firmware. You loose all settings
    2- Delete old ipod restoration on iTunes preference panel
    3- Do not use old ipod retauration on Itunes for the first sync
    4- When you sync 1st time, set only mail account on itunes and choose fresh ipod (no music, no photos ....it's very faster)
    5- See after if mail account is transfered
    6- What a beautiful life......
    Tell me if doesn't work !!

  • When powering off my iPod touch, any application (facebook, viber etc)installed using App Store won't work again

    When powering off my iPod touch, any application (facebook, viber etc)installed using App Store won't work again
    How to solve this issue?

    Try a hard reset first. Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If still no luck, try downloading and installing a new app from the App Store.  Doing so has cleared the issue up for several users.
