After upgrading to iOS 5, I lost my contacts, calendar entries, and Notes on my iPhone 3GS (3 years old). How do I retrieve them? My last backup/sync to iTunes acct was Sept 18 but yesterday's backup bombed due to lack of space on my C: drive.

Yikes! After upgrading my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5, I lost my Contacts, calendar entries, and Notes (100+) on my iPhone (3 years old). How do I retrieve them? My last backup/sync to iTunes acct was Sept 18 but yesterday's backup bombed due to lack of space on my C: drive.

This happened to me too but it was really all there.  Go to your calendar, click on calendar in the upper left hand corner, click on show all calendars, click done in the right upper corner.  Everything should show up!!!
I was super thrilled.  Hope this works for you!!

  • I lost my contacts in Outlook when I began to use the i cloud. How can I retrieve them back into Outlook?

    I lost my contacts in Outlook 2007 when I began to use the i cloud. How can I retrieve them back into my Outlook 2007?

    Are you talking about icloud's emails or those from another service like google or yahoo?
    If you log into icloud.com using a computer's browser and go to the email page, you will see what's currently stored in icloud.  If they are gone, then it's probably "user error".  If your computer has backups, then you should be able to restore the email files back to the computer.

    I am reading on this site about the error I am getting and it wants me to change some files that I am not comfortable messing with. Mainly because it is like a foreign language. Will the store do this for me or tell me if it is neccessary?

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Since downloading iOS 7.3 I have lost all my calendar entries and it wont accept new entries. Is it me or the system?

    Since downloading iOS7.3 to my iphone 4, I have lost all my calendar entries and it won't let me create new entries either. Is it me or is it the system and if the latter how do I recover the data and add to it?
    I am not up dating the system on my ipad in case the same thing happens. They aren't syncing on this facility.

    Easy solution, thank goodness.  On your iPhone, go to settings, then to iCloud.  If your Calendar selection is turned off,  turn it on.  Your info should restore.  If your Calendar selection is turned on, then turn it off.  Choose to save calendars when asked.  After it shuts the Calendar off, turn it back on.  Your info should be restored.
    Thank you to Apple support for walking me through this.  Shame on you Apple for not just telling people about this easy fix rather than making us go through all of this pain and worry.

  • After upgrading to iOS 8.3, the keyboard has frozen up  and I can no longer text or access my contacts.  I've re-booted the phone several times, to no avail.

      After upgrading to iOS 8.3, the keyboard has frozen and I can not longer text or access my contacts.  I literally just upgraded to an iPhone 6, but I'm just about ready to can this phone and go with an Android.  Can anyone help or have the same issues?

    Im having the same problem. This started with iOS 8 and Yosemite. Im in a group message with 10 people with and without iPhones. Currently have 9 threads and when ever a new person responds a new thread forms. they all have the same people but in a different order, that may be part of the reason why iMessage doesn't recognize them as the same conversation.
    As I'm writing this post 3 new threads opened and other people with and without iPhones are mentioning the same problem
    hope apple can fix this. VERY annoying

  • After upgrading to iOS 7.0 my iMessage doesn't work and it says it is "waiting for authorization". When I try to activate it, it won't connect.

    I upgraded to iOS 7.0 and now my iMessage doesn't work. My phone reads "waiting for activation" When I try signing in I get a message "Could not sign in. Please check your network connections and try again". My network connection is fine for all other applications. Any help?

  • TS1559 My wife's iPhone 4s worked fine. She syncd last week and then it couldn't find any wi-fi networks. Tried all the steps above except that after upgrading to ios 6, the wi-fi is toggled off and is greyed out, unable to turn on. NOT AN AT&T ISSUE

    Nothing posted on any of the threads has worked. I am reluctant to revert back to 5.1.1 which some say worked for them. Posting this solely so Apple will know there is one more continuing to have this issue and it is a major inconvenience.

    I have been having the same issue for the last two weeks. No real indication as to why it ever began other than I had turned off my router and Airport Extreme Base Station off for a weekend while I was away from my place.
    iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, all have no issues at all with my Airport Extreme Base Station. Can stay connected throughout my living room, bathroom, bedroom, no issues whatsoever.
    My 5 month old MacBook Pro 2.66 GHz Core i7 Airport is sometimes perfect, able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue. Then, for no reason, I won't be able to join my wireless network, or when I can join, I can't pick up an IP address. And then it will connect, pick up and IP, and then it won't browse. No real rhyme or reason to when this will happen, or when it works.
    I thought that it was an issue with my MacBook Pro, but then my sister visited with her brand new MacBook Pro 2.26 Intel Core 2 Duo, and while a month ago she was able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue, this weekend she had all of the same issues I was having.
    My XBOX 360 and MacBook Pro have absolutely no issues with the wired connection. Only my WAN seems to have this issue.
    Did you ever find anything more to this?

  • HT4908 how do i retrieve my photos from icloud as my previous iph was stolen but the pictures in that iph was backed up by i cloud

    hi there,
    my previous iph 4s was stolen and all the pics i took on holidays werent backed up to the computer but i did back them on i cloud now i have another ip, so how do i retrieve those pictures to my computer or to my new iphone. please help me as those pics were very precious to me.
    thanks

    If you backed up your other phone to iCloud, you can restore the new one to the backup, which should recover your photos as well as other data and settings.  You are given the option to restore to your iCloud backup when you first set up a new phone (see image below).  If you already set up your new phone, you'll have to erase it, then go back through the setup again to access this option.
    To do this, tap Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings.  Then follow the on-screen setup again, choose Restore from iCloud Backup when given the option, then select the backup from your old phone to restore from.  Be sure your phone is connected to wifi and your charger as restoring an iCloud backup can take a while to finish.

  • After upgrading to IOS5 I have lost all my applications installed and documents

    I lost everything that I had except the photos, music and the books in IBooks which I found later on Itunes. What I dread most is that I lost an important document that was on Pages. Any ideas how I can recover the documents in Pages?
    Thank you

    I had the same problem and joffysloffy is right with what you need to do however this will still leave you with linked/duplicate contact cards in your phone and your favorites contacts in the phone as well as all caller id photos etc. will be linked to the old contacts.  In order to get rid of those contacts what I did was added the simple change to the contacts I synched from the computer (I added an exclamation point to the notes sections).  Then synch to your iPhone through iTunes not through the iCloud, then search your iPhone for the first contact name you have in your list.  You will see this will bring up 2 contacts for the same person.  Select either contact then hit the back button.  You will then be in the contact list but you will see in this work around there will be 2 contacts listed for everyone.  Select the contact card and then delete it that does not have the added change so you can tell what is new and old.  This will leave you with the new contact cards and remove the corrupted/lost contacts.  You will lastly need to turn on the iCloud synch and either leave or remove those changes you made (like my exclamation points) from your new contacts.  This is a pain in the tail but the only way I was able to completely fix the issue.
    Good luck!

  • After upgrade to IOS 7.1.1 option in Calendar to invite others no longer there.

    This is for a Microsoft Exchange email account. Is there a way to add this back? Checked settings and did not see an option.

    Hey EduardoA,
    As a general troubleshooting step, you may want to try resetting your iPhone using the instructions in the following article:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Since this issue appeared after an update, I would suggest that you restore your phone if that does not resolve the issue:

  • Lost my music after upgrading to iOS 8

    After upgrading to ios 8 I lost all the music downloaded through iTunes (from ripping my CDs), on both iPhone 5 and iPad 3rd generation, except the music purchased online.

    Hey Keisha, Are the photos in your iPhoto library on your computer? If so, you should be able to check the photos option in your iPod's summary page in iTunes  and add then back. Hope this helps, Cheers.

  • Why has Siri stopped working on iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 5?

    Why has Siri stopped working on iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 5? I've tried the disable and reboot but continue to get the network error.

    Apple has not been forthcoming on the explanation. My Siri worked on my iphone4 (not 4s) immediately after upgrading to IOS5, but I take it they have redirected the servers that used to support Siri to only work with Iphone4s.
    It is one thing for apple to only bundle the improved Siri with IPhone 4S, or  for them to remove Siri from the Ap store.
    But it is another thing all together for apple to purchase a company, and then cease the service that many of us paid for.
    Attempts to contact apple at apple store and via email have been unhelpful.

  • I cann't open App Store  in iPhone 4 after upgrade to iOS 6, could you please help me !

    Hi, could you please help me to solve my problem ?
    After upgrading to iOS 6 , sometimes I cann't access to App Store on my iPhone 4 ?

    I had this too when I updated to iOS 6 today.  Solved it by doing a restore to factory conditions followed by a restore to my last backup.  Now its idling around 45% CPU and is back to its snappy performance.
