We have a few Mitel 6940 phones deployed so far. We also have a MIVB and MiCollab server with MiCollab Client running on it.<\/p>\n
I’ve gone into the MiCollab Client Service area of the MiCollab server and then under Accounts. I’ve uploaded pictures for everyone that has a MiCollab Client license.<\/p>\n
The issue I’m seeing is when putting their extensions in MIVB under the Keys tab of a user with User Speedcall as the Line Type: Alot come across on the 6940 phones with their pictures, but some do not.<\/p>\n
I’m assuming the pictures are coming from the MiCollab Client Service: Accounts area.<\/p>\n
Some more info:
\nI had 2 employees where 1 took another extension, and another that didn’t have an extension, took his. After a day, both of their pictures appeared correctly.<\/p>\n
I assumed this was due to some sync that happened overnight.<\/p>\n
But… my extension, my picture, which i’ve tried different pictures, different formats: jpg and gif, won’t appear either on my 6940 or on a key.<\/p>\n
I got a new picture for an employee, i went into the MiCollab Client Service: Accounts area, removed his old picture, saved, went back in and uploaded the new picture, saved, and I saw the change on my phone right away.<\/p>\n
Odd behavior, I’m not sure where all to look, if the picture has to be a certain format or size or dimensions, what restrictions on the pictures are there?<\/p>\n
Any insight or help is apprecitated.<\/p>\n
Thanks<\/p>\n
