Can't find any of my contacts

I have just restored my iphone 3GS and upgraded to ios 5.1 but all my contacts have gone missing. Every other thing is there including call history and messages (just the numbers, no names). I have snyched my phone numerous times but the contacts still wont come back. I synch my phone regularly and also backed it up just before the restore & update so dont understand why this has happened. someone please help! This is driving me mad!

You have to have your iTunes sync settings set to sync contacts on the Info tab, and you have to be syncing them to a supported application such as Outlook or mac Address Book. If you didn't do this then your contacts are gone. Your only chance to get them back is to try to recover your old backup using Windows System restore (restoring to an earlier restore point) or mac Time Machine and restore your phone from this backup. Revert your computer to an earlier time period; if your old backup exists you will find it at one of the following locations:
Mac OS: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
Windows XP: %AppData%\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
Windows Vista: %AppData%\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
Windows 7: %AppData%\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
If you find your old backup, copy it to a flash drive then revert your system back to its current status (by undoing System Restore or ending Time Machine), then copy this backup file from the flash drive to it's original location. Then save any recent pictures in your Camera Roll, disable automatic syncing in iTunes (Preferences>Devices>Prevent...from syncing automatically), connect your phone to iTunes and when it appears on the left sidebar, right-click on it and select Transfer Purchases (to save any new purchases), right-click again and select Restore from Backup.

How can I cancel my annual subscription on ExportPDF? I can't find any button to contact an agent.

I made the order AD002886280BR, but unfortunately I didn't find ExportPDF useful to what I had in my mind. I wanted to convert other files to PDF format, not upload PDF docs. Since I'm brazilian, I don't quite undertand the terms with great accuracy and I made this mistake. I assume I should do this before March 10th to get my money back or to get the product that I firstly had in my mind. I apreciate any help.

This is the Readere forum; the ExportPDF one is here:

Sorry no backup - no pictures.
Yes phone will automatically backup to icloud when on wifi and phone is charge, but your phone storage was full so it stop backing up.

I can't find any FaceTime app both in the setting or in contacts.

I use a iPhone 4S with iOS 6.0.1 installed in it. But I can't find any FaceTime app both in the setting or in contacts. I don't know if this phone is used in any middle eastern country cause I bought is as used. Will appreciate any kind of help.

Like he said - "There is no FaceTime app for the iPhone. FaceTime calls are initiated through the Contacts app. Is FaceTime turned on: Settings>FaceTime>On."
I was confused myself because there IS a FaceTime App on the iPod touch. It seems ridiculous that Apple would be so inconsistent given that they are essentially the same iOS. I didn't use FaceTime on my iPhone for the longest time because I could not find "the App."

HT4946 Does iCloud or iTunes back up your contacts? I can't find any info in the articles that specifically backs up my contacts.

Does iCloud or iTunes back up your contacts? I can't find any info in the articles that specifically backs up my contacts.

It looks like the developer's of that app, or Apple, have got the wrong search name for it in the store - you could try contacting the developer and pointing it out to them so that they can get it corrected. Currently it looks like you can only find the app either by using the link (as you've included in your post), or by searching for the developer's name (Page Foundry Inc) in the store.
For searching the store, when you search for something then the first result(s) should be those whose title matches what you searched for - so if you search for 'ebook reader' then as there is an app with that exact name it will be first in the results, other apps will then be listed after it.

Can't find any contact for support besides forums.

I can't cancel my Creative Cloud Annual plan because it won't give me an option to contact support. My plan ended today and I just want to make sure I don't get billed anything more. The only option it gives me to contact support is telling me to go to the forums, I can't find any numbers or emails, it's just telling me to go to the forums and yet it says the only way to cancel my subscription is to contact support.

Is there any app like skype or VoIpBuster?

Hello c.glez.az,
Thank you for contacting Mozilla Support. We don't currently have a Voip app in our Marketplace, but keep checking. Our marketplace is still quite young and new apps are being released everyday.
Thank you!

HT201441 where and how can i find his id to contact him if the device is not activated and idon't know how to riech him

where and how can i find his id to contact him if the device is not activated and idon't know how to riech him

i will have to agree with hasscoo90. we badly need help how to contact the owner of this phone. we do understand the purpose of activation lock. and this is why instead asking Apple or any other company that offers a service (if there is any) to remove the activation lock for us, help us provide any contact information of the owner of this serial number we have and we will inform them of exactly what to do so that we can already use this iphone.
please help us. we really badly need your help.

How do you delete audiobooks downloaded from Overdrive from the library from my Ipod Nano when I can't find any of the titles under Music in iTunes?

I've been uploading audiobooks from Overdrive and now that I'm done listening to them I want to delete them. After I hook my Ipod 7th gen up to the comp, it pulls up iTunes and I go to Music but I can't find any of the book titles there. They all show up in my songs group on my iPod. I've been manually managing the songs so I don't get all my husbands stuff on there. I've cruised through the other sections and tried searching the library without any luck. Any advice???

Follow the instructions here:

I had to change my apple ID and password. When I want to update my aps. on my I phone 4S I get a box that says I need to sign in to I tunes. It has my old apple ID and I can't find any way on my phone to change the address it has in the box. Help!!

Because of a nasty virus on my computer I had to change my apple ID and password. When I went to update my apps. on my I phone 4s the box said I need to sign in to I tunes. The ID it had in the box was my old apple ID and I can't remember the password. I can't find any where in my phone settings that will let me change my I tunes ID although I have a new apple ID and password that I used to get on this site but I can't change it on my phone. Please help.
Thanks

ChrisJ4203,
Thank you for the help. Every app on my phone was downloaded using my old I-tunes ID. I just hope that they will re-download under my new ID because I still can't change it on my phone. In order to change to the new ID it says I have to sign out from the old ID and change to the new one. My problem is that I don't remember my password to be able to sign out from my old ID. Then the phone says it can change my password through e-mail and I agree but I never get an e-mail at my old address or the new one.

I moved all my music from c: drive(because it was full) to an external harddrive and now itunes can't find any of my music. Is there a way to get Itunes to find music on external drive without having to place all the music back onto the c: drive? Thanks

Hopefully you moved the entire iTunes Media (or iTunes Music) folder to a new path on your external drive. Copy your iTunes library folder out to the root of the external drive, e.g. X:\iTunes (where X: is your external drive), then move the media folder inside it. Hold down shift as you start iTUnes and keep holding untila asked to choose or create a library. Choose the library at X:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl. Should all be good.
Failing that, download and run my FindTracks script and point it at the new location of your media folder.

When syncing my iPhone with iTunes, I get the error, "some items did not sync, see itunes for help", but can't find any helps for this in iTunes. Where can I find out what is not syncing?

When syncing my iPhone with my iPhone, I get a message that 2 items did not sync - use iTunes for help.
But I can't find any help information in iTunes at all, let alone when items are not syncing.
How do I figure out what is not syncing?

Since it seems App related, I'm not sure what to offer you. I guess the only suggestion I have is for you to reboot your iPad and then try again. To reboot, hold the power and home buttons at the same time for at least 10 seconds (keep holding past the swipe to shut down bar if it appears) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart. You won't lose any settings or data, so it's worth a shot.

I've tried downloading iOS5 several times and after an hour each time I get a message that says my network connection has timed out. But I can't find any information about "timing out" or how to correct the situation. Any help?

Disable your antivirus and firewall, and try again.
