What category is my contact in?

Sometimes, I'll have to do a search for someone in my contact list. How do I know what category the person is in without having to look through every category? Seems like it should be really simple, but I can't figure it out without doing a lot of work with Smart Folders.

**** it, I figured it out. When in the All contacts list, select a Contact and press OPTION key. The categories they are in will highlight (on my computer, it highlights in Yellow).

  • I want to make a copy of the names and e-mails addresses in a particular 'category' of my contacts. How do I do it?

    I want to make a hard copy of the names and e-mail addresses in a category of my CONTACTS. How do I go about this?

    Firefox normally doesn't store information for your contacts, although you can have it save information you've filled out in forms...
    Did you set up your contacts in a popular webmail site, such as Yahoo! mail, Hotmail / Windows Live Mail, or Gmail?
    Or using an add-on?

  • In my email auto fill it lists addresses I haven't used in 2  years as "recent others". What causes this, the contact information for these people was deleted some time ago.

    Mail, Window Menu, Previous Recipients.
    Select the ones you don't want and delete them.
    If you want to add them to contacts, click that button.

  • My computer crashed and I have to buy a new one.  What happens to my Contacts, Photos, etc when i use the new computer?  I do not have an iTunes backup.

    My computer crashed and I have to buy a new one.  What happens to my Contacts, Photos, etc when i use the new computer?  I do not have an iTunes backup.

    Do you have the iCloud set up?  If you don't you need to buy a third party software that will do it for you when you plug your phone into the new computer.  You can google: iPad/iPhone/iPod to Computer Transfer.  You have to pay for the software but it's really a life saver and you get free updates for life.  It'll save you a lot of pain and suffering in the future.  I've used it many times.

  • Does anyone know what Join mean under contacts?

    Just wondering if anyone knows what join means under contacts, also if the phone should have double contacts names when you go to send a text message? For example when I go to send message there will be 2 contacts sowing with the same name, but the number are showing differently...I do have 2 different numbers under the contact.  I had this phone since the end of December and already had to have it reset becausing of Low memory error message, which should not be coming up as I don't have any where enough apps on it. Also keep getting forceclose when I Facebook, or other internet sites. And another issue, I have set ringtones for each contact and sometimes their ringtone does not ring when they are calling me.
    Thanks in advance!

    leerod, are you saying you are getting a forceclose error when you access ringtones?
    If not, when are you getting a forceclose error message and what other issue are  you having with ringtones?
    Otherwise, put your phone in safe mode. Once in safe mode, do you get the force close error message?
    Force close basically means there is a application on the device that is corrupt, therefore you can remove the defective app from the phone in order to prevent the message from appearing on your screen.
    Please reply back to let me know if you are getting the force close when accessing ringtones and whether or not the error shows up while in safe mode.

  • HT201441 what if i cannot contact the original owner

    what if i cannot contact the original owner i work at a pown shop yes we do take phone numbers we take pictures but most the time the # are fake and they pawn somthing never to pick it up and dont show back up or if they do show up you forget to ask them about it pluse they get angery you ask them about items that was once yours but anyways how could i get into this ipod without having to have the original owner?? i would really like the help!!!

    You can't.  Without being able to contact the previous owner I'm afraid it's useless to you.
    These are the steps to take before buying a used iOS device in the future to ensure it doesn't happen again (from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818):
    Follow each of these steps to make sure that you can use the device you purchase:
    Turn the device on and slide to unlock.If the passcode lock screen or the home screen appears, the device has not been erased. Ask the seller to completely erase the device by going to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been erased.
    Begin the device setup process.After choosing a language, choosing a country, and connecting to a network, the device will begin activation. If you are asked for the previous owner’s Apple ID and password, the device is still linked to their account. Hand the device back to the seller and ask them to enter their password. If the previous owner is not present, they can remove the device from their account by signing in to icloud.com/find. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been removed from the previous owner’s account.
    You will know that a device is ready for you to use when you are asked to “Set up your iPhone", “Set up your iPad", or “Set up your iPod” during the device setup process.

    They might not specify product-specific phone numbers (or if they do, maybe not for every product).
    The number you mention is what also I see at:

    (and click on the "+ Phone Numbers) link)
    If you have own your copy of Flash, I'd imagine that this general ph# will be able to get you through to somebody appropriate, ti field your install or activation issue.

  • Under what category is the CML download from the support portal?

    I am unable to locate the CML downloads from the cisco support portal.  What category is this located in?
    It seems like the marketing teams need to have a meeting and decide what kind of product this is.  Here in the support forums the product is listed under Network Infrastructure.  On the cisco.com site it is listed under Cloud and Systems Management.
    I have a valid license and support contract incoming, I just can't find the media download location.  Thanks for any help.

    I was able to work with TAC to get the edelivery email that included the OVA file.  How are you all going to handle product updates if there isn't any way to download the software from the normal support download tool?
    Another question I have now that I have the environment running is where do I download the client software?  I expected to see a download link somewhere on the User Workspace Management portal, but don't see anything.
    So far I have been a little disappointed with the lack of clarity in the documentation on simple things like this.  The documentation does a good job of instructing how to modify the .vmx file to get the nested hypervisor working (something that the end user shouldn't have to do, this should be handled in the OVA before it is delivered to the end user).
    I also feel that there needs to be a little more discussion on the deployment options for this software.  We are initially just wanting to run the simulations sandboxed with no connectivity to our corporate network except through the management interface for user connections.  I don't think we need the FLAT and SNAT networks for this, but if we do, I am confused because the documentation is poor.
    So now I have a server deployed, but no way to actually run simulations since I don't have any client software.

  • What happened to my contacts list in Yosemite mail

    I use to have a pull down list of contacts that I could pick and choose (holding down the Command Key) several addressees.  I can't find that pull down list.  Selecting the + only allows one selection at a time, not several.

    Dick2111,
    I appreciate your response, but I would hardly call it an acceptable work around.  Your work around only applies if you "pidgeon hole" folks into distinct groupings or contact lists.  I enjoyed and fully utilized the pull down menu in Mountain Lion.  I would enter the BCC field, access the pull down menu of addressees, and double click on each one that I wanted to copy into the BCC field.  Then, with Maverick's, they diminished the ability to double click and finally came up with a "work around" my having to hold down the Command key as I selected individual contacts to move to the BCC field.  That was totally acceptable and I appreciated the escalation and work on the Engineers part.   This work around was only produced after my trouble call was elevated to Senior Engineers.  Now even the Command key option is gone with Yosemite, and the only response I got from Apple Customer Support was to report it via the "feedback" page.  That to me is not unresponsive, but pretty close to it.
    It might be an "oversight" but to me is either sloppy programming or perhaps deleting what is thought as infrequently used features to incorporate new features without "growing" the size of the Operating System.
    I know i am wrong, but right now I feel it is part of the overall migration plan to an eventually have just one operating system for all Apple platforms, which (tongue in cheek) means if ya can't do it with your thumbs, it can't be important.  I am not sure if there are any third party programs out that address this issue, but I'm not a real fan of replacing Apple core programs with 3rd party stuff, but I may have no choice.  Bummer!

  • What happened to my contact list in new iphone OS?

    Yesterday I switched my iPhone 4S from 5.0.1 to 6.1.3 OS, and my contact list vanished. What happened? Can I get it back? 

    You should check the DROID Incredible 2 by HTC section to see if there are similar discussions.

  • What is happening in contacts? I lost some in my phone and gained triples in some.

    My contacts in IOS 7 on my iPhone 4S lost contacts and tripled some. What is going on and how to fix it?

    Thanks Carolyn.  I tried that and it gave me an idea.  I also had my contacts on Google.  They were also in time machine but I used google.  I went to my Google contacts and exported to apple as vcards.  After checking the duplicates in the import screen, I merged duplicates in Address book.  When I finished..... my contacts are back and correct.  Yeah!!!!!!!

  • HT201441 WHAT IF I CANT CONTACT THE OWNER ALREADY AND HE STILL HAVE THE ACCOUNT LINK ON THE PHONE. THE DEVICE IS NOT STOLEN. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

    what should i do if i cant contact the owner of the old iphone that i bought. the phone is not stolen. he just forget to remove his account on the iphone?

    If you can't get the previous owner to unlock the device, you have wasted your money. This security feature cannot be bypassed.

  • What happened to my contacts????

    I have had SKYPE for over 10 years...same account. I built a list of contacts and also over the years set up family members computers so all one of us had to do was open the skype screen, see who was logged in and click the video call button and have a video call. I last used it on this computer (Vista) a few months ago and it worked great. Now, everything is different...unrecognizable and unnavigatible!!! What have you done??? I had to change my password because my old one did not work, there is nothing the I can see that would allow me to get all my invited contacts back...WHAT WERE THEY THINKING MESSING WITH A GOOD THING TO THIS DEGREE??? and yes you better believe I am yelling! If I can't figure this out, how is my 80 year old mother 3000 miles away going to configure her skype screen? The big QUESTION is: How do I get back to what I had without having everyone I know re-accept an invite? How do I even get to where I could send an invite...even if I wanted?

    If you continue to use the very same account to sign in to Skype the contact list will remain the same. Your contact list is stored on our server, so it won't be affected by you upgrading your Skype client to a newer version.

  • What number can i contact to replace my iPad 3? I bought it just 26 days ago

    I heard Apple is replacing iPad 3's which were bought 30 days ago with iPad 4's. I bought mine 26 days ago. What number or who can I contact about this? Thanks for your help.

    Here are a number of things that you can try and see if any of them work for you.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
    If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.
