How to i get my old contacts back into my iphone

when i synced my iphone it erased sll my old contacts how doi i get them back

do you use iCloud?
If so: check www.icloud.com and log in there, go to Contacts
If they're there, you can sync them back at Settings - iCloud - Contacts

  • HT201270 how do i get my old contacts back when ive updated my tunes account

    how do i get my old contacts and messages back since i updated my iphone software to newer version, since i did this i can not find my backed up iphone contacts / messages???
    regards,

    Restore the phone to the backup you made of the device before you did the update. That is where the contacts and messages are.

  • How can i get my old contacts back?

    At first i signed up skype using my facebook account, but i couldn't log in on my andriod device, so i closed that account and created a new on using my e-mail, but now all my old contacts are gone, how can i get them back? ps. those old contacts are not my facebook friends and my new account is being connected to my facebook. if can't do this, i know part of my friend's name, cis there a fliter that i can use to narrow people down?

    If you don't have a backup, well you can't. Start storing your contacts in a supported contact application on your computer & you won't have this problem in the future. And, backup your computer.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Without a backup, you will not be able to recover deleted contacts. You need to set up a separate iCloud account for your daughter, so you can keep your mail, contacts, calendars etc separate.

  • How do I get my old contacts onto my iPhone 5? Have tried with iCloud, but no luck.

    How do I get my old contacts onto my iPhone 5? Have tried with iCloud, but no luck.
    I backed up my old iPhone on iCloud, ensuring that contacts was 'on' and then backed up my new iPhone 5. I have surely missed a vital step, but I can't figure it out.
    I'd really appreciate any help.
    Thanks!
    Laura

    I have also realised that my contacts are not in iCloud. I have backed up my old iPhone several times (today!) and they are simly not getting there. Any ideas?

    Once I find the back up file how do I get in onto my phone without the restrictions code going back on too?
    You don't... If you restore the backup, it will restore the restrictions passcode.
    Do you have your contacts, calendar, etc, synced to your computer? I'm not asking if you backed up, I'm asking if you synced... In other words, if you open Outlook, or Windows Address Book (I'm assuming you use a PC) are your contacts there?
    If you have not been syncing your contacts, etc, you may have to restore so that you can set up the sync, get the contact data off the phone, then set it up as a new phone again, do not restore the backup, and set up the sync with your address book.

    PS CS6 has a different set of installed fonts than my old PS CS4.  How do I get my old fonts back?  Don't like most of the newer CS6 fonts.  Dell Precision, Windows 7.  Does PS use the fonts in the Windows directory or does it use its own?  If so, where are they in the directory?  A lot of my preferred fonts show in the Windows directory but not in Photoshop, which does not display them within the program.  Please help.  If I get free fonts (NOT CC fonts) from elsewhere, where do I put them for Photoshop[ CS6 to use them?  Thanks.

    All versions of Photoshop get their fonts from your OS.  Just install any missing font wherever Windows keeps fonts.
    I don't do windows myself.

  • How do I get my old Firefox back

    How can I get my old Firefox back for my Windows 7. I'm not sure what version of Firefox I had before I downloaded this new one. With this new Firefox it comes with a Yahoo search bar which I cannot stand and a lot of other buttons I don't want. With my old version I had everything the way I wanted it but now it is all gone. Please help and show me the path way back to my old Firefox.
    Thank you, Mike

    The Yahoo toolbar may have been added by an extension or other (security) software on your computer.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • How can I get the old Firefox back, this new one stinks

    how can I get the old Firefox back, this new one stinks

    Firefox is highly customizable and you may be able to customize it to meet your needs.
    If you do not like the new UI, you can make Firefox 4 look and behave more like Firefox 3.6, for details see http://www.computertechtips.net/64/make-firefox-4-look-like-ff-3-6
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
    For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

    Not true at all.
    You only buy the right to your own personal use.

    This is illegal.  There is no doubt about it
