Application Windows 8 people...

Hello

I have two question regarding the application of people:

  • First of all, how can I change the way names are?  Rather than first name and then last name, I'd rather have the list defined by family name
  • Secondly, how can I include my conatcts Office Outlook 2013 in the people application?

Appreciate any help

Thank you

Hello

I wanted to just chime.

  • Show as naming model, 'name': is not possible in this app.  You can sort and organize contacts by last name (hence the "S" section would show John Smith, not Shawn Keene), but the real display names will not change.

    You can submit feedback in the app Store (you can sort the people app directly from the charm of settings) you want to see it.

  • View contacts from Office Outlook 2013: the people app actually stores not contact, just of connects to online accounts and shows what it finds.  I can see my Outlook Contacts from 2013 within the app people because my company uses such as Exchange Server and all my contacts are saved so they synchronize between all my computers/apps, including those App and Outlook on each computer.  But if your contacts are "orphaned" and within a single copy instance of Outlook, not connected to a service online, then you can not show them inside the people app.

    To do this, I personally recommend past of an online account if you can.  You get great synchronization among all your accounts and devices, as well as a kind of backup because data is stored elsewhere.

  • Windows 8 people app does not connect to my Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn

    My app Windows 8 people will not connect on my Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn (all the social networks I joined).

    Details:

    My contacts all sync and I can see if they are online but you can't use What's New (connected to the only lists Microsoft)

    Try to connect within the people app, and there are no errors, just get a synchronization «...» ", but nothing happens

    I can see my Facebook photos in the photos app

    My login account is my hotmail, not the local account account

    My wife has a separate profile (also hotmail) and has no problem with the integration of the people/Social site

    Performed troubleshooting:

    Removed all accounts linked and added the

    Uninstalled/reinstalled people (and all associated applications) (after you have reinstalled the application, that it has been connected for about 5 minutes.)

    account type changed to level local and back to hotmail

    I bought this OS mainly for this function, if it does not work I need to talk to a refund (I'm willing to help out and try the suggestions, but it must work or go...)?

    It seems to have solved the problem...

    I removed all the social sites linked from my profile and the value of my account at the local level.  Then add a new user using my Hotmail address.  Connected, add accounts to my profile and people connects now to them!  Now, I just hope it remains connected...

  • French names for applications 'Windows Explorer' and 'File Explorer '?

    I'm updating documentation and noticed that "Windows Explorer" (win7) and 'File Explorer' (win8) are mentioned in the French translations.

    When you use the french language pack, these applications use the English names, or is there the French names for them?
    Thank you.

    Hey,.

    -Are what documents you referring? Personal work or associated Windows?

    -What version of Windows is installed on your computer? Is - this Windows 7 or Windows 8?

    If you have installed the French language pack, then some of the applications (Windows 8) will be displayed with the french names and rest will appear in English because the version of Windows installed on the computer will be in English. If you have installed the version French of Windows, then the interface of Windows will be in french, and if you add an English language pack, then some of the apps will appear in English.

    So, if you don't want the french names on applications, then please check the language packs installed (and the current language pack used) and change it to English.

  • Losing the application window in the passage of several single screen monitors.

    I'm having a problem in windows 7 on my laptop when I spent several monitor to work to a single monitor at home because I was running spread on 2 monitors applications seem to leave orders I had open on the second monitor not visible when I switch to the single monitor at home and reopen the app. Is there a function I need to run to get these missing controls reappear on the single monitor.

    If you move the application to the main screen window before closing, it opens on the main screen next time.

    If the application window is on the wrong monitor, you can move:

    1. place the mouse on the icon of the application in the task bar, so that the preview of the window appears above it.
    2 right click on the preview of the window.
    3. If the word move is dimmed in the menu, click restore , and then right click on the preview again.
    4. click on move .
    5. press and hold down the left arrow key to move the window to the main screen.
    6. press enter .

  • cannot move the application window = Windows does not know how to do windows.

    It is quite ironic that the company that filed the name windows does not the best job to design a GUI of windows desktop:

    1. If I run a browser with multiple tabs (usually 30) opened with a connection with limited bandwidth (cable modem), the browser window opens but is locked in place (it cannot be dragged by the grab bar) until all the tabs are loaded.  ~ 30-40 seconds.  What is happening with this?  Who designed the graphical interface of Windows?

    Furthermore, is not a failure to set bookmarks, multiple tabs are left open because many activities underway, that's what tabs are for.

    2. If a secondary application window / "door" is open, the application window is locked in place.  If an attempt is made to drag the window of the grab bar, the pane starts a queasy nod.  The pane must be closed before the window can be moved.  The component can then be reopened to complete the desired operation.  Is this a real problem?  Well Yes, sometimes a lot of time is wasted juggling and spinning to get the installer of Windows GUI/desktop as you want, for example: obtaining information from a window of the underlying application and before deciding what to do.  This applies to windows, not windows, not MAC OS, Linux not.  Windows forever.

    Re. 1. If I run a browser with many tabs...

    It is not so much the result of the design of GUI but a work function how graphical operating systems.   Events, such as the mouse messages are queued in a message loop, and there is a communication between an application program and Windows if a callback procedure.  The operating system cannot always respond instantly when an application is busy as any other treatment happens.  Open the 30 windows! on the application startup is a lot of treatment and is bogged down the loop CPU and message.   If you want an instant answer to OS any level of demand, you can look to a supercomputer rather than a PC multi-million dollar.

    Re. 2. If a secondary application window / "door" is open, the application window is locked in place.

    The "sub-sub-window/pane' is properly called a modal dialog box.  Windows are usually coded in modal form (which means that they should be closed before a continuous program) when they include a message critical, or can be used to configure the application settings.  If you would like more information see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modal_window

    These two conditions certainly exist in other operating systems.

  • Detection of resolution Windows move Application Windows with multiple monitors

    Looking for a few tips:

    I have a laptop Dell XPS13 plugged into a Targus docking station, to which I have two connected displays. So, indeed, I have three monitors, which is the screen of the laptop.

    Every now and then monitors everything flashes once or twice; When it's finished, all or part of my application windows are passed to different monitors, generally meet on the screen of the laptop. I think that Windows must re - adjust the resolution or something, and is not to remember what application is linked to which monitor.

    What is the result of an intermittent connection between the monitors and laptop docking station? (These last two are brand new.) As I type this now, I have not known the issue for some time, so I wonder if it has nothing to do with what applications I use. I tend to 'maximize' windows in monitors, if that makes a difference.

  • How to control the location of an XP Mode application window when it is maximized?

    How can I control the location of an XP Mode application window when the window is maximized?

    I'm running an application in XP Mode on a Win7 workstation company with three monitors.  The primary monitor is on the left.

    I opened the application in XP Mode and it will display on the primary monitor.  When I maximize the application window, the window moves to another monitor and displays only the part of the window.

    As an experiment, I have rearrainged the three monitors so that the screen on the right was the primary monitor.

    Now when I run the application in XP Mode, it opens on the primary monitor on the right correctly, and when I maximize, it remains on this monitor rigthmost.

    So, how can I control the location of the application window XP Mode so that it remains on this primary left more monitor when it is maximized.

    Thank you.

  • Why application windows disappear suddenly

    When I'm working in an application (Microsoft Office or other) and I move my hand to the keyboard to type the text in the document, the application window suddenly disappears and the desktop and I have to move the mouse to see the window of the application. This happens all the time even if I don't move the mouse, and while the pointer is in the middle of the application window.
