Problem with contacts

I recently changed the contacts on my iMac (OS X El Capitan 10.11.1) in order to print labels for a mailing list. The names have been changed so that I could print a label for each family, for example 'The Smiths' instead of ' Joe Smith '. I entered the name for each of the contacts as 'The' in a group called "Christmas list" to achieve this. I wrongly assumed that the original contacts would remain unchanged with the real name. Labels worked perfectly, but when iCloud synced with my iPhone 6 (iOS 9.1), the first names of most of my contacts is now 'the

Is it possible to have a group of contacts called "Christmas list" where a contact would be "The Smiths" and another contact in another group's 'Joe Smith' at the same address?

I can edit the contacts in the correct names easily enough, but I hope not to have to do it twice a year. I could also create duplicate entries of all my contacts as "Joe Smith" and "Bill Jones", but it would be a lot of your time. In addition, so when I get a call or text of this person that I suspect, he would have a chance equal to say that 'The Smiths' call or send SMS. When I have multiple contacts with the same name, there is no way to tell apart them. Currently, I get several pieces of 'The' and need to figure out who is texting.

Is it possible that I can send the list group Christmas to myself and keep them separately? If I could prevent synchronization with iCloud, I would have my correct original contacts and my separate Christmas list. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

I prefer to keep those that I use for Christmas labels in a spreadsheet (Excel or numbers). The downside is enter in the time of the first worksheet and if all addresses change throughout the year you need to change in two places. Rising is complete separation of the two lists offer more flexibility.

  • Problem with contact form

    I don't have the same experience in the Web design, but I create a using Adobe Muse. Everything works on the site expect Web contact form. If I use a gmail account I get the form but or my domain email I get nothing. I am in contact Godaddy for help but they don't know what to do...

    The domain is ensmarble.com. Can someone help on this topic?

    What should I do or how should I solve this problem?

    Thank you.

    Hi filiper79629728,

    There is an easy solution if you use GoDaddy's Web hosting.  Just a warning, this only works if you use GoDaddy Web hosting and forms of the Muse.  This isn't a problem with Muse for as long as it is a setting that needs to be adjusted on all that the host you are using.

    1. Place the shape in the Muse. Make sure to add the correct settings, that is, the e-mail address that will receive the forms.
    2. Next step is to navigate to your cPanel on GoDaddy.  This is where you manage your web hosting.
    3. On the main page of cPanel, scroll up to where it says ": Email".
    4. Click on "MX", which is located just below the 'accounts '.  This is the mail server setting.  By default, GoDaddy assume you are using a GoDaddy mail account.
    5. Make sure "Remote mail server" is checked on and that "Local mail server" is turned off.
    6. Your form should now be functional.

    The problem with the forms of the Muse and GoDaddy is that GoDaddy assumes that you will welcome your emails via GoDaddy.  If you have configured an e-mail address for your shape in the Muse that isn't an e-mail address hosted GoDaddy, GoDaddy and then do not accept by default. You must give permission to GoDaddy to send a form to what GoDaddy considers that an email "at a distance".

    I hope this works for anyone who has struggled with form when using of Muse forms that are hosted on GoDaddy servers.

    Thank you

  • Problem with contact shares as part of the sharing of the family

    On his iPad, my daughter is put in place with its own Apple ID and part of my family sharing.  But I have two problems-

    (1) it doesn't seem to be an option to disable access to my contacts stored on my iCloud account correctly.  She could easily turn this installation by going to the sound settings.

    (2) for sending an email or an iMessage she gets suggestions for my contacts.  She just send an email to one of my business contacts.

    I have been searching online for a solution and tried different methods for how to advance this broad but without a bit of luck.  There are a lot of messages, but none that offer a solution.

    The only solution is to migrate my contacts to iCloud?  It would be a lot of time because they are shared between multiple Macs.

    Come on Apple!  It's really annoying.

    Assuming that these contacts are not in the shared group and are considered to be 'your '.

    (1)... If she doesn't have your password, it should not be able to access your iCloud account or your contacts.

    (2)... even.

    Looks like she was using your Apple ID and password at a given time, and your contacts are synchronized on his iPad. When she then signed with its own Apple ID, the choice was made to merge the contacts already on his iPad, with all new contacts that she created.

    If Yes, go to his phone now and remove these contacts that are "yours".

    Apple has not 'do '.

  • Problems with Contact synchronization

    Hello

    If I go to contacts, view options, select my account, go to contacts to display all of the items are selected. There are four elements "system group: My Contacts ' and three other defendants for family, friends, co-workers. Where are the system groups created? I have too many groups of parents, friends and co-worker in my gmail contacts (and that is listed separately).

    The reason that I ask is that I am out of contacts on my droid. These contacts have a field name and the field company, are listed in my contacts with google, but not on the droid. They are both ranked in the my Contacts group.

    I don't see a "system of Group: my Contacts" or the other three on my PC. The droid shows 735 contacts, my google page has 'My Contacts 743', all contacts are 865. This has always been a problem, but it wasn't a big deal that I was always able to find people I contacted often. I did a google search, but failed to find anything useful.

    On the Droid, System Group: my Contacts is the same thing as my Contacts in Gmail. Its called a group system because it cannot be deleted and it will automatically contain the contacts of all groups. Friends, family and co-workers are also the same groups for the Droid and Gmail.

    When first the Display Options you select, there is an area for the display of contacts with numbers only, Unselect and see if your missing contacts appears.

    In addition, go to Gmail on your PC and show contacts that are not displayed on the Droid. Is the phone number in the appropriate field? It may be in the field notes.

    Another possibility is that the missing contact was joined with another contact with similar information. The droid will join similar contacts. You may need to do some digging around on the Droid to find them. You can separate them from the Edit screen.

  • Problems with contact list blackBerry Smartphones

    Hello!

    I have a BlackBerry Curve 9300, and a few days ago, I added a new e-mail account and synced my contacts with the email account list without realizing it. So I deleted the email account, so it would interrupt the synchronization and it didn't. Today, I deleted a contact in the list of e-mail contacts through the computer and since then every time I tried to open this entry app contact frozen. Then, I deleted the entry and now I can't add all other contacts...

    Does anyone know how to fix this? I would really appreciate it!

    Thank you

  • Problem with contact form on mobile zoom layout

    Hey there,

    I don't know how to get around this problem yet. When I use a contact form on a mobile device, my Zoom window to enlarge the entry fields. This makes it difficult to use because pinch out does not work and after hitting "submit" on the form, in which you find yourself watching a zoomed layout. Is there a way to prevent the zoom?

    I can provide a link if necessary, do not know if this is specific to my site or a broader issue.

    Thank you
    Alex

    I just found out that if the font size in the input field is set to 16px, that it will not automatically zoom. That seems to work for me now, always curious, if there is another way around this.

    Repair Apple Software Update since the programs & features Panel configuration and then try again.

    For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

    Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

    The more information box has direct links with the current and recent if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with third-party software.

    Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.
