Since the update for Sierra, contacts do not appear in Messages - just phone numbers.

Since the update for Sierra, Messages no longer displays Contact names - only phone numbers.  No instructions on how to remedy this.  Ideas?

Hello

Go into the Contacts application and ensure that it uses the same account synchronization like the iPhone and other devices you may be using.

Also check the part of the accounts of the Contacts application preferences and make sure that it's only using one account.

  • Since the update for Firefox 4, I am no longer offers the possibility to save the tabs when closing making it much faster to access these sites when starting the next day. Why this possibility has been removed? It's a favorite feature.

    Since the update for Firefox 4, I offer more the ability to save tabs on shutdown - makes more rapid access to these sites when commissioning the next day. Why this possibility has been removed? It was a feature favorite and saved a lot of time.

    Firefox 4 records the previous session.

    You can use "Firefox > history > restore previous Session" for the previous session.

    There is also a button 'Restore previous Session' on the default on: Home home page.

    Another possibility is to use:

    • Tools > Options > general > startup: "When Firefox starts": "show my windows and tabs from last time '.

    You can set the preferences of warning on the topic: config page true via the context menu or toggle the value with a double click of the left.

    To open the topic: config page, type Subject: config in the address bar (address) and press the 'Enter' key, as you type the url of a Web site to open a Web site.

    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access this page.

  • Problems since the update for Premiere Pro

    Hello

    I've updated Premiere Pro last night and since then the video will not play in the area source (shows black screen) but I can hear the audio. The box seen below shows the bits of video, but with a red color to the video. Does anyone have an idea what might happen? Is there maybe a setting I need to sort since I updated? The version I had was 4.0 and I've updated to 4.1.0.

    Thanks in advance,

    Kerri

    I don't see anything on the graphics card or the graphics driver in this thread.  If you use an ATI graphics card or Nvidia, you should consider updating to the latest.  At first glance, this seems to be the first thing to try.  Apologies if you already have.

  • Since the upgrade to Sierra, Mail will not recognize or filter spam

    I'm having the problem where almost nothing goes in my junk e-mail folder. I rechecked my mail spam filtering preferences and I have it configured to enable filtering and move the Junk to junk e-mail folder. Those are the only two boxes checked. That the mail comes, I have systematically report as junk, but no matter how many times I do that junk mail is still not reported as spam in the future, nor is it place in my spam box. I really don't know what to do at this point.

    Open the activity monitor in Applications/Utilities and type md in the search filter. You should see the files of mdworker process. This shows Spotlight indexing of your files. Until this process is complete, Spotlight will not know the contents of your discs and will not send mail.

    in my imessage that I can type peoples contact names and they will come to the top, but then it changes automatically to their number. contacts will be displayed, but not much.

    Hello

    Check the iPhone and Mac use the same service then synchronize Contacts.

    On Mac, including limiting to one account/service.

    There may be problems if the Mac uses iCloud, Google and Yahoo and others all at the same time.

    Most likely this isn't because of two devices sync contact lists.

  • How to configure a group of contact by e-mail when the words 'New group contact' do not appear in my toolbar?

    Help Vista says only "click New Contact Group on the toolbar."

    http://www.vista4beginners.com/missing-buttons-from-Windows-contacts-toolbar

    The tutorial above should help you.

    First, launch Windows Contacts. Then click on organize and select Properties.

    In the Properties of Contacts window, go to the Customize tab. Here you can choose the type of folder to use for the Windows Contacts. Most likely, it is now changed for all objects, Documents or the music.

    Under the text box that says "This file as a template to use", there is a selection area with the elements. Click on it, select Contacts , and then click OK.

    Your Windows Contacts toolbar now returns to normal.

  • I have an iMac, but no other Apple products, and keeping in mind the long list of issues of update for Sierra, is there an advantage to update me?

    I have an iMac, but no other Apple product, and given the long list of problems on the pages of the community regarding the update for Sierra, is there an advantage to update me?

    You won't see anything, but the problems reported here most of the time. This is a support forum. People without problems, much more numerous than those having problems, but they are not seeking this community to report this fact.

    I have updated both my 2014 11 "MBA and my iMac 2011. No real problem. Performance on the iMac has been well below normal after the upgrade, but pretty much a reboot fixed that.

  • Mozilla Firefox 13.0.1 - Gmail works do not since the update

    Hello

    I got an update for Mozilla Firefox over the weekend, and since then, he's not working 100% correctly. I have version 13.0.1

    I use gmail, but now can't seem to log on. I can get to the page, log in no problem, but when I have my details it tries to connect but nothing that really happens (you can see 'connection... ("with the circle in the field title tab, it seems to be something, but nothing is really happening).

    Sometimes I get «loading [email protected]...» "with the progress bar slot, but the bar stays clear all the time. I don't even get that much, sometimes it is on the login page, even if the connection circle moves, sometimes it changes just a blank page.

    There was once when I got to the Inbox, but only the HTML version (you know one you get if you have a slow connection), but then I actually can't open my emails and eventually left the game. This has not happened since.

    I also use another account with gmail for work (which we use by logging in via a portal on our website) and have been having a similar with this problem only that sometimes the pop-up that appears just pops up as a topic: blank tab.

    Refresh the page (for an account) does not appear to have any effect.

    I can work around the problem for now by using IE, but for a variety of reasons, I prefer to be able to use Firefox.

    Is there a way to solve this? I looked here http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-problems-connecting-websites-after-updating?s=firefox+13.0.1+gmail+problems & r = 4 & e = you & as s = and updated my Windows Firewall put Mozilla in exceptional, but appears not to have made a difference.

    This applies also to other Google stuff like the calendar.

    I'm not having problems with other sites.

    I use AVG for my anti-virus, but the Windows Firewall.

    Thank you

  • How to know why my iMac wakes itself since the installation of Sierra?

    I installed macOS Sierra yesterday. Since then, whenever I put my iMac to sleep he awakened by himself some time later and stayed awake until manually put still asleep. I don't know how long it took before he woke up every time. I looked for a revival in the Console, but this utility has changed a lot and I found no reasons wakeup which appeared in the previous version. Nothing else has changed since El Capitan other than the update for Sierra.

    I'm looking for clues to help find the cause of this new problem.
