Why in mail on my mac the to field does not look up company names

when using Mail on my iPhone, and creating a new email, in the TO field it includes company names in search, and shows all email addresses for that company.
but on my Mac (OSX10.8.2) Mail does not include company names in its search of email addresses, but only First & Last names.
is there a fix for this?
how can i fix this ?

G B-D,
A cluster of recent occurrences suggests that it might be a software/firmware issue. (Have you performed a firmware update recently?) However, if it were my computer, I'd want to make sure it's 100% before your window period ends.
First, I'd try fixing the problem with the list of suggestions from the attached link. This includes every solution I've found relative to this issue.
Second, I'd document the problem. That way you can determine then it happens, under what conditions, and how you can avoid it. For example, using a key sequences like CMD-Option-Eject should safely sleep your computer, hopefully avoiding the problem you note. Other users say that rebooting several times in a row clears thing up.
Third, once you have your documentation, and you done several things, and there's no solution, you might think about visiting your Apple Store; it's a lot easier to carry around a MacBook, but I'm not sure what your options are.

  • The date field does not appear on my form

    On my saved form, the date fields do not reveal the calendar icon to select a date like it does on the test form. The date field is instead a free text field. Can somebody explain what happened to the date field?
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    If the form is saved as pdf, the date picker is not support in pdf.

  • HT1918 I'm from the Philippines and the County field does not accept 3 letters. Not sure why when the drop down options only has 3 letters for the provinces.

    The Philippines only has Provinces not Counties and the province initials only have 3 letters. I cannot create my Apple ID because it keeps getting the "enter at least 4 letters or numbers" error. Please help.

    well, then recovery mode does not work. I've tried all the key combinations I've seen on line. Command+R, Command+Option+R, Command+Option+P+R, none of these work.
    I don't believe there is anything we can do on a forum to help then, you need to take it into a AASP and have it professionaly diagnosed. If you don't know how to locate an AASP in your area you can begin by using Contact Apple for support and service
    Good luck.

  • Why the State field does not include "DC"?

    The field for State has a drop down box but does not include DC for the District of Columbia.

    Are you talking about State field in our form templates? Yes, DC wasn't listed, but you can modify forms created from these templates easily. Here are the steps:
    1. Select the dropdown and click on the Pencial like edit button
    2. Mouse over the option "CT" and click on the "+" button to add a new state "DC"
    Thanks,

  • A page that looked fine in the last version does not look correct at all in 3.6.3, although it looks fine in both IE6 and IE8

    This is a log-in page, which points to our email registration software's server (Tikit's Emerge Reaction Server). If you open in it in the last version of FF, it looks as expected. The page renders fine in IE6 and IE8, and all our other website pages (www.mofo.com) render fine in both ver. of FF - its just the pages that point to our emerge-reaction server site that won't render properly. Tikit says we are the only user having this problem, and they don't know what the problem is caused by. Help!?
    == URL of affected sites ==

  • I have just started using Time Machine. I was thinking about deleting old E-Mails on my Mac to clean. Does Time Machine back up the E-Mails , if so how can I find them in Time Machine ??

    I have just started using Time Machine. I was thinking about deleting old E-Mails on my Mac to clean. Does Time Machine back up the E-Mails , if so how can I find them in Time Machine ??

    If you back up your mac before deleting your emails, Time Machine should back up your e-mails.
    I never tried this so i'm not sure to find them in Time Machine. To browse in your backups simply click the Time Machine icon in your dock. In the right bar, you can select an backup. Than you can browse in finder, in your backkup.
    EDIT: Just browsed and CT above was right. This topic might help you:

  • Why is elements better at photomerge than CC- CC does not appear to automatically fill image based on content but elements does when merging a panorama. Also the stitching is visable in CC but almost perfect in elements- why?

    I took 6 panorama shots of a scene and used CC to Photomerge them as one. Couldn't see where to automatic blend the edges and there was 'stitch' lines when the images were merged. So i did the same in Elements 11 and it was perfect. Am i doing something wrong in CC or perhaps not doing something at all?
    Any help, please?
    Dave

    Hi - Thanks for taking the time to reply and i appreciate the remarks- if a little harsh- we all have to start somewhere and i am fully aware of the limitations of Elements which is why i decided to add CC to my software. I can only say that if an inferior quality software from Adobe does the job well then CC must also be suited to doing the same which is why i can only think, from your comments, that i have not done something simple- however- following tutorials to get to the end result should have sufficed- it didn't so perhaps i will consider posting the difference between the two applications- and, perhaps suffer a few more 'harsh' comments. The learning curve is quite steep and i am a visual learner, but i'm also not totally incompetent:)
    Kind Regards

    First a clarification: you are not addressing Adobe here in these user forums.  You are requesting help from volunteers users just like you who give their time free of charge. No one has any obligation to answer your questions.
    I'll give it my best shot anyway.
    Few folks in this forum are really familiar with Elements, for which there's a dedicated, totally separate forum.
    Different engineering teams, also.
    From this perspective, it will be difficult to give you a direct answer to your "why?" question.
    Personally, I blend very large panorama shots in Photoshop proper since I can't even remember when without any issues whatsoever, up to and including in Photoshop CS6 13.0.6.
    Without being at your computer and without looking at your images, I couldn't even begin to speculate what you are doing wrong in Photoshop, which I suspect you are.  The least you could show is post examples from your panoramas that have gone wrong.
    I can tell you that panorama stitching requires significant overlap between the individual shots, besides common-sdense techniques like a very solid tripod and precision heads.
    The only version of Elements I have ever used for any significant time was Elements 6 for Windows, which I bought in 2008 to use on a PC (I've been an avid Mac user for 30 years).  I found Elements so limited and so bad that I successfully demanded a refund from Adobe.  IU mention this only to emphasize that I can truly only address your question from a Photoshop (proper) and Mac user point of view.  I couldn't care less about Elements, but if you have comparison examples of panoramas processed in both applications, by all means post those two.
    Generally speaking Photoshop is a professional level application that makes no apologies for its very long and steep learning curve, while Photoshop has many hand-holding features for amateurs and beginners.
    Perhaps the bottom line is that you should stick with Elements if you personally manage to get better results there.

  • Why when i buy books on my ipad, when i log onto the store it does not show that i have purchased them?

    Why when i buy books on my ipad, when i log onto the store it does not show that i have purchased them?
    how many books and songs were therefore lost when i had to wipe my ipad?
    this is SHOCKING from Apple... this is not in my domain of settings!!!

    In the iBooks application on the Mac, there is a checkbox to sync highlights and notes across devices. 
    I don't see a similar setting in the iBooks app on my iPad.  It may require iBooks on the Mac as a mediator.
    Also:
    Can I highlight text and make notes?
    Yes, iBooks includes built-in Highlight and Note features. Highlight any word or passage of text within a book. You can also create a Note from your highlighted selection. Review your Highlights and Notes by tapping the Table of Contents button and then tapping Bookmarks. Highlights and Notes appear in their own section under Bookmarks. 

  • What do you do if your Mac Book video card does not meet the Minimum requriements ???

    What if your Mac Books video card does not meet the minimum system requirements

    Just for the record it was an Early 2008 iMac 20" (MB324LL/A) with the ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO with 256MB of GDDR3 memory in it.
    Not sure why or how but overnight the system has decided to try and run the update again and this time it has updated all the apps.
    The machine is running the apps fine and there are no real issues with the performance (other than the fact its over 5 years old, but thats understandable).
    Im going to put it down to either a minor glitch in the update that was corrected fairly fast or just a hiccup from an old machine.
    Thansk for the responces anyhow guys.

    Hi,
    /Users/sarahschadek/Desktop/Safari.app/Contents/MacOS/Safari
    Move the Safari app from the Desktop to the Applications folder.
    Restart your Mac.
    That's why you see this:
    When I try to do the updates my computer says it has ready it goes through like it is downloading them then at the end it says some of the files could not be saved to "/" files.
    After your restart your Mac, click the Apple  menu (top left in your screen) then click:  Software Update ...

  • I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5.  When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different.  Why doesn't it appear edited?

    I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5.  When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different.  Why doesn't it appear edited?

    People who have Photoshop, but don't have Lightroom, need ACR so that they can use Raw files. Without ACR they could do nothing with those (they may also like having ACR so that they can work on other kinds of image using the same kinds of adjustments and techniques, as are used with Raw files).
    People who have Lightroom, can get access to Raw files regardless whether ACR is present or not. They can use Lightroom on other kinds of image also, using the same methods. LR can pass images directly into Photoshop without passing via ACR (or else does so transparently, which amounts to substantially the same thing).
    ACR does not, strictly speaking, even need to be installed for this external editing to happen. In fact, not even PS needs to be - since a different image editor can be used instead, while still retaining the Adobe Raw conversion etc.
    Lightroom "subcontracts out" specialised external tasks, in this workflow, but is still your "main contractor": the image is otherwise located, viewed, managed, adjusted/presented and output entirely using LR.
    So IMO we can divide image processing into:
    operations that involve pixels and layers and layer masks and adjustment layers etc (of the kind done inside Photoshop)
    operations that involve parametric edits (of the kind done in ACR where you are not using a Lightroom based workflow; otherwise, done inside Lightroom)
    When PS is called in, that's because those tasks are impossible or unsuitable to do in Lightroom. But those tasks can't be done in ACR either - by definition, since LR and ACR have exactly the same image processing "feature set".
    Lightroom is irrelevant to the Bridge + ACR + PS workflow. This workflow requires both your PS and your ACR to be current enough, to support your Raw format etc.
    ACR and Bridge are irrelevant to the LR + (image editor) workflow. It is in this case, only LR which needs to be current enough to support your Raw format etc.

    To check your model go to About This Mac (by clicking on the Apple icon, top left) and then select more info. If you wish to use mirroring you will need one from 2011 or later running OSX 10.8 or later. The alternative would be to use 3rd party software like Airparrot.

    my mac's keyboard is not working with my mac.the green light blinks and i cannot get onto my mac. everything on the support questions does not help because i cant go on the mac and i cant sign in

    If you can't sign in, then you can't troubleshoot and/or pair the keyboard until after that........ so, for that, you will need to borrow someone's USB wired keyboard in order to get signed in and to the Keyboard Bluetooth Preferences.
