Unhappy Phonebook, iPhone 4, 2010 TL woes

Hi everyone-
Have a 2010 TL w/ Tech and an iPhone 4 on Verizon. My issue is that I cant get my phonebook to organize my contacts by last name; no matter what I do, contacts are arranged by first name only!

Have tried deleating & re-uploading the contacts, and still all contacts are arranged by first name.

On the iPhone under Settings; Mail, Contacts, Calendars, there is an option to adjust Contacts (both the Sort order & the Display order) by First, Last name or by Last, First name. I have tried ALL FOUR combinations, deleating my phonebook, confirming the deleation, and re-uploading it each time, and STILL all my contacts in the phonebook are arranged by first name only.

Anyone else have this issue? Better yet, any solutions? Thanks for your time! -MGBMGB

Unfortunetly I am guessing the sort order on the TL does not care what the sort order is on the phone. SO, you are most likely stuck with first name sort order which appears to be the way Acura has done it.

Try switching the positions of the names in your iPhone. In other words, put peoples first names in the last name section and and their last names in the first name section.

The word "genius" is used too much these days...no but seriously, tho it was a pain to manually switch the first & last names in my iPhone, that did the trick! Don't know why I didn't think of it (maybe b/c I didn't want to do the work of switching first & last names), but it worked; now all I need to do is to remember to enter NEW contacts backwards as well! Thanks again!-MGB
