I have just lost all my contacts from my Mac and my I Phone. Don't know how.  Can I get them back?  Not using Time Machine

If you have no backups, and data has been lost, then it's lost forever. The rest of your data will inevitably follow if you don't back up.

    I lost all the icons at the bottom of individual emails on my iPhone. How do I get them back???

    Open the mail app then press and hold the sleep/wake button until the red slide to power off thing appears. Without sliding the bar, press and hold the home button until the app quits.
    Also clear the mail app from multitasking bar too. Then open mail app and check again

  • Mail application is still there. All of my emails and folders are gone since iCloud. How can I get them back using Snow Leopard? Or can I? Do I have to wait for Mountain Lion?

    Mail application is still there. All of my emails and folders are gone since iCloud. How can I get them back using Snow Leopard? Or can I? Do I have to wait for Mountain Lion?

    I need to check a few other things...
    Click on 'Mail' in the upper left corner next to the Apple ()
    Click Preferences
    Click the 'Accounts' tab
    Make sure your iCloud account is highlighted in the column on the left.
    In the account information section what does it say next to:
    Incoming Mail Server?
    Outgoing Mail Server?
    Also, did you use MobileMe before the iCloud?

    i have purchsed gem in clash of clan through my credit card but i didnt recieve the gems..it has also reflected in my bank account and my itunes purchase history...how can i get them back??who should i complain to??? plz help....

    You need to talk to clash of clans first. The game should have a support link.
    If they can't/won't help you then you turn to iTunes support.
    There seem to be a lot of issues with in app purchases in this game because not a day goes by that someone doesn't post a thread asking something similar.

  • Contacts and calendar on the phone are gone.  How can I get them back?

    I have sync my iphone with google contacts and now the pre-existing data, contacts and calendar entrys are missing on the phone.  The contacts from google contacts are there but none of existing contacts and dates.  Can I get them back? or are they gone for good?

    Well, certainly if you had 3 years of photos you have been importing them off the phone to your computer as recommended.  Just synch them back.

  • My daughter has a new ipod touch and when synced it had all of my iphone contacts. she deleted the ones she didn't want and they were removed from my phone as well. How can I get them back if they were deleted from the cloud? I also had them on my pc

    My daughter bought a new ipod touch and when synced received the contacts from my iphone. She deleted the ones she didn't want on her ipod and now they are gone from my iphone. I have the cloud and i thought back up on itunes. I have tried to re-sync and no luck. How can I get my contacts back?

    Your problem is that she used your icloud ID to connect to icloud and thus had all your data synced to her device.  Contacts are not saved in a backup to icloud, since they are stored independently in the Contacts section of icloud.  If someone deletes them, they are gone.  If you had them on the PC would they be available in some backup you frequently make of the PC?

    Ack! We don't need that much.
    What you posted looks like the iTunes Library.xml file  I will let you read about how iTunes works but not only is the .xml not your main library it is just the listing of tracks in your library and where the music files should be located.  Your music is actually in media files (by the way, it is pointless to zip those as they are already compressed).  Anyway, read these and you will see that your true library file (iTunes Library.itl) is only a small, but still important, part of a complete library.
    What are the iTunes library files? - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660

    As you can see, a library has several components, so "getting it back" depends upon what is missing, what it was you actually backed up in the end, if any of this music was purchased from the iTunes Store, etc.

  • Songs I imported from cds are no longer in my iTunes account.  How can I get them back without having to reload them on?

    There are 158 songs that were once in my iTunes that are now missing.  I put all of them on from cds.  The only songs that are left are ones that i have purchased.  When i pulg my ipod into my computer to add recent songs that i have bought it tells me that i need to erase and sync my ipod with my itunes library or cancel.  Well i dont want to erase my ipod and sync it with my itunes because that is 158 less songs that would be on there.  On the apple website it said that songs from cds are in the itunes media folder but when i went there it is still just my purchased songs.  I dont know what to do except reload all of them back on there but i really dont want to since im not the one who took them off!!  Im not entirely sure when the songs went away but i recently updated to itunes 10.4 (i think its .4) and im not sure if that is why they are gone. Thank you in advance to any help!!

  • I lost all the data from 3g to 4g for apps, utilities, games etc. How can I get it without starting all over again

    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID - Apple Support
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
    If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.

  • The Apple Store recommended wiping and reloading software on my Mac Mini yesterday.  In the process I lost iMovie, iPhoto and Garage Band.  How can I get them back?

    I took my Mac Mini to the Apple store yesterday since I was having trouble with difficult to read text.  They recommended wiping the drive and reloading it.  I lost iMovie, iPhoto and Garage band in the process.  How can I get them back.  The App store says they are already installed.

    What I missed was that I needed to select "Purchased" rather than using the normal listing of items.  Once I went to the purchased list I could easily download the various software.
    Thank you all for your help.

  • I just upgraded my iPhone4 iOs and lost ALL Phone Contacts! How can I get them back?

    HELP! I've been using my iPhone consistently for ALL phone numbers, since I have serious memory problems due to fibromyalgia. I upgraded my phone last night finally, having moved my photos out of it I had the space to download and install the upgrade.
    I got a nasty shock this morning when I tried to make a routine call and found ALL of my phone contacts missing. They don't seem to be either in the cloud or in the phone. What happened? It said it was storing them in the cloud but they're all gone! How can I get them back?
    IF this normally happens, why should I ever upgrade? Seriously! I didn't think to copy all of it out manually before upgrading, I'd upgraded once before without any problems. Addresses and other details gone too. I've got four numbers in "Favorites" but no context for them beyond location by state. I don't even know who they are - can't recognize just the numbers.

    Thanks, but I checked iCloud and it has none of them.
    If it backed up to my laptop, that died and I just got the new computer. The one that's crashed won't even boot, so there's no way to even tell if it was syncing the contacts along with all the phone photos. Literally happened at the same time - it was because I had the new computer that I was finally able to pull the photos off the phone and make room for the upgrade. It had refused to upgrade for lack of space for some time.
    I had thought it was set to sync to iCloud but it vanished from BOTH my phone and the cloud. That's why I'm so angry about it.

  • I am in tears! I have just lost all my music in my itunes and they are not located on my pc either as it's a new pc. Help PLEASE!

    I am in tears! I have just lost all my music in my itunes and they are not located on my pc either as it's a new pc. Help PLEASE!

    Did it used to be on that computer ? Your music library will only be where you put it, buying a new computer and installing iTunes on it will not put your library on it.
    If you go in Edit > Preferences in your iTunes and on the Store tab tick the 'show iTunes in the Cloud purchases' tickbox then your iTunes purchased music might show in the Music part of your library with cloud icons against them for redownloading - if you've moved countries since buying the music or if it's no longer in the store then it won't show for redownloading. And check to see if you've hidden any of your purchases : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
    For your own music (e.g. copied from CDs) and what you can't redownload then do you still have your old computer with it on, or do you have a backup of your downloads/library, or is it on your phone ? If on your phone then there are some programs listed halfway down this page which should be able to copy it back : Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    Or to copy it from a different computer : How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support.

  • I have a 3gs that just updated to 5.0 all my contacts are gone. how can i get them back?

    i have a 3gs that i just updated to 5.0. all my contacts are gone. how can i get them back?

    Are your contacts still on your computer? If yes, set one contact up on the phone and sync it, you'll get the option to merge data.
    If there are no more contacts on the computer, see if your latest backup still has the info, if you did not sync after you lose the info, they are still part of the backup.

  • Ive just updated my iPhone4 to the IOS5 software and i have lost all my apps? why? and how can i get them back?

    Ive just updated my iPhone4 to the IOS5 software and i have lost all my apps? why? and how can i get them back?

    When an iPhone updates, it wipes the whole device clean and then reinstalls the software and then the backup. Obviously you didn't create/couldn't create a backup either via iCloud or iTunes. You can get your apps back when you go to App Store>Updates>Purchased and download the apps you want.
