When I receive a phone call from a new number, how do I save that number to my contacts?

When I receieve a phone call from a new number, is it possible to save that number from the incoming calls screen? Can I create a contact from the number itself without having to go to the contact list and write the number in manually?

Thank you so much. I feel like an idiot for not figuring that out on my own, it is so simple. But I really, really appreciate this. Thank you!!!

Brand Thunder software isn't viewed very favorably around here, due to it including "extras" such as you are seeing.

When I receive a phone call it also rings my husbands phone?

When I get a phone call on my IPhone 5c it also rings on my husbands iPhone 4s and vice versa?

That is a new feature of Continuity described in Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
You can stop it by going to Settings > FaceTime and changing "iPhone Cellular Calls" to off on both phones.
You amy also want to consider using separate Apple iDs.

Names from my contact list are not appearing when someone phones, when a receive a phone call

Names from my contact list are not appearing on the screen, when I receive a call

I'm not a Verizon user (I'm with Rogers, in Canada), so this obviously is not a Verizon issue. Would love to know why one second all my texts and calls had names associated with them, and then suddenly all the names were replaced by phone numbers.

Data is dropped when I receive a phone call - Lumi...

Is it normal to get disconnected from mobile internet while you're on a call? I was on 3G using Lumia 920 at the time it happened. I was talking to someone and needed to look something up in the broswer but was surprised I could not.
Is there a way to do it?

On some network carrier/service provider its normal for data to be dropped when on phone call. But I suggest you confirm it with your service provider too.
On 2G GPRS, I guess its called DTM which allows both voice and data to work simultaneously. But speed may drop when on call. On 3G, it allows only IM and emails to work simultenously when on phone call. Its service providers limitations.
Also provide name of service provider and country name here, so that people using same network might help you.

HT1689 WHAT DOES IT MEAN WHEN I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL AND 3 NAMES CAME UP AS THE CALLER

what does it mean when i received a call and 3 names came up as the caller

Could mean that you have three different contact entries with the same phone number.

Cannot Receive phone calls at my new number

YES- I have enabled my voicemail.
YES- I did set up my options so that voicemail does not pick up until it has rung for 30 seconds.
YES- I did pay for a phone number.
YES- I did set up my voicemail options so that I get email notification whenever a voicemail is left for me.
Regardless of all this, whenever someone (or even when I use a cell phone myself) calls my skype number they are taken directly to voicemail with no 30 second pause- and to top it off the phone never rings AND even though I do get an email notifying me that a VM was left when I go to view my voicemails they are not there! The last voicemail that shows in the VM menu was left back in JUNE. What the hell junk did I just pay for here? I'm waiting for an extremely important call from my lawyer and the phone number won't ring OR take any vm messages. All it does is tell me that someone left me a voicemail but it does not record them at all.

It is happening the same to me.
Is someone else experiencing the same problem?
Please, help me find a solution,
Thank you in advance,
Ana

HT201269 Phone call activity on new iPhone, how to make it work??

Does anybody know how to get PHONE CALL activity on your new iPhone device AFTER you have already backed up your old phone and transferred EVERYTHING onto your new iPhone already ??? I can use the Internet , receive texts... But I cannot make calls !! Everything else works except receiving and making calls. I even updated the phone

If data connection is working on cellular, then you need to contact your carrier. Phone calls are a carrier responsibility. They need to check your account provisioning.

Can my iPhone and MacBook Pro be hacked by receiving a call from an weird number?

I received a phone call from a bizarre number. The guy asked me if I could confirm the number I saw on my screen. I did. then strange things started to happen to my MacBook Pro. I am wondering if through this call could somene have hacked my system. One of the things that happened to my MacBook Pro is that I went to make a make a presentation and the system apparently deleted all my cookies and now I have to enter my UserID and Password to every site I normally use. Any guidance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

>>...when you say "...erasing/reinstalling..." what do you exactly refer to? Save my documents and then reinstall the whole OS?...
Saving, erasing the disk, then installing a completely new system & importing/migrating only your documents & files, rather than any software. Changing all passwords etc too.
Which may sound extreme, but if something cropped up on your computer screen, with a number included, then someone called your 'phone & requested that number from the screen, and after giving it to them, it seemed as if they could control your computer... (what were the other strange things ?).

How do I make a phone call from my mac with yosemite?

How do I make a phone call from my MacBook Pro on the Yosemite operating system?

The following quotation is from Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity
There is more information in the link, including supported hardware and that you must have Settings > FaceTime > iPhone Cellular Calls set to on on the iPhone.
Phone calls
With Continuity, you can make and receive cellular phone calls from your iPad, iPod touch, or Mac when your iPhone is on the same Wi-Fi network.
To make and receive phone calls, here's what you need:
Sign in to the same iCloud account on all your devices, including your Mac.
Your iPhone and your iPad or iPod touch need to use iOS 8 or later. Your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
All devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network.
All devices must be signed in to FaceTime using the same iCloud account. This means any device that shares your Apple ID will get your phone calls. Look below for instructions on how to turn off iPhone cellular calls.
Wi-Fi Calling needs to be off. Go to Settings > Phone. If you see Wi-Fi Calling, turn it off.
Make a call
To make a phone call on your Mac, iPad or iPod touch tap or click a phone number in Contacts, Calendar, or Safari.

Re: Phone call from someone purporting to represen...

I have received a phone call from somebody purporting to be from BT Technical Services who understood we were having trouble with our computer and asking details about it e.g. IP address. I asked if I could ring them back and after giving me 0668 (which I repeated, as a foreign sounding voice) they then rang off. The number displayed on the phone was 020909100 but when I tried to ring it back came up as not recognised.
Being responsible I thought my duty to report to BT but have been unable to get in touch via 0800 800 150 as going through the options, as a TalkTalk line rental customer the recorded advice was to contact the provider!

you need to contact your service provider and isp this is a BT retail customer help forum these posts do not go to BT

Premium number phone calls from iphone

A number of people including myself have noted that the iphone dials premium numbers such as 09074734000 and 09825232415. I realised this when I received the phone bill from O2 last month. I have never dialled these numbers. Google search and talking to O2 and companies associated with these numbers reveals that this is related to apps on iphone dialling these numbers costing huge amounts.

Apple should investigate this as this is all linked to downloaded apps.

Blackberry Shuts Down when I make a phone call or access to the internet

Please help someone,
I know there are similar question before. I took a look at them. but there was no solution.
just crossing my finger.
my blackberry is...
Curve 9360
3G wifi
7.1 Bundle 2102 ( v 7.1.0.746 Platform 9.6.0.112)
Hope it is enough info on my cellphone.
Everytime I make a phone call or use the internet, it shuts down immediately. when I received the phone call as well.
and I need to charge it first and then I can turn on again.
It is not buttery consumption since the buttery sign shows almost full when I turn on again.
I would like to fix and use this phone at least another year. It has been 2 and half years. should work properly more!
Thank you in advance!

Hi everyone who gave me solutions,
I appreciate all of your help and Im so sorry for late update.
I tried them, but did not work unfortunately. so I bought a new battery for $9 and now it's working very well like a new phone.
I will try to charge battery when it's almost gone.(not all the time) and try not to use phone while it's charging.
I believe that it lengthens cell/battery life.
Thank you again for your help.

How can I stop phone calls from ringing on my iPad?

When I receive a phone call it rings on my iPad. How can I shut that off?

I received a call from a +34 number while abroad, now all calls I receive come up as +34 (still abroad)

I received a missed call from a +34 number while abroad, I called it back, no answer, now all calls from (my usual contacts) come up as +34 (still abroad). I'm not in the +34 dialing code area. Is this a type of scam ?

Hi Macintoad,
I think I had the exact problem as what you are having. Having a greenbar on top while making call, and can not press any button, also the Iphone screen is blinking while a call is comming from that number and ontop of this, the contact name wont display on outgoing/incoming sms messages.
I did manage to fix it by doing this, hope this also works for you..
Backup all contact details to computer - address book.
Delete that specific contact detail (Hopefully you don't have too many contacts causing this problem - I only had 1 number causing this)from both your computer(s), and mobile me.
Add back all contact details from address book to your Iphone - I only add contacts, without any other settings (I had to reinstall all apps).
Add manually that number back to the phone, and then sync back to computer/mobileme.
Please let me know if this works...
Good luck!
