All contacts gone after phone software update by O...
Here's another one for you: after performing a software update from within Ovi Suite with automatic backup before and restoration afterwards, the following is missing from my C3-01 phone: 1. All contacts are gone (yikes!); 2. The main view settings are back to default, not what I selected. Fortunately I was able to restore the contacts from a previous backup so BEWARE: before updating, make sure you have a separate manual backup since the automatic restoration performed by the Ovi Suite does NOT deliver.
Furthermore, the selected group tones are gone and all back to Default. It appears these are not part of a backup...

I CAN'T CALL AFTER PHONE SOFTWARE UPDATE
After I had updated NOKIA XM5800 software, i can't call with this phone. I can recieve calls, sms, but I can't call. Then I updated it again, but it still doesn't work. They said at my operator, O2-Slovakia that the problem will be in the phone. Has anybody a similar problem? Please help...

try hard reset your phone. i guess you talking about v4.0812.**.* it has lots of bugs.
4.0839.**.* works fine.
Glad to help -
I deleted an old company mail account and when doing so it deleted all the contacts on the iphone. How can I get them back? Can I do a restore where I import ONLY the contacts? Or does Restore just overwrite everything?
When I connect my phone with itunes and go to the "Info" tab, it asks me if I want to "Sync Contacts with Outlook" where outlook is a choice from a dropdown menu. The question I have is what contacts are stored on itunes, if any, and which way it will write them ---> phone to itunes or itunes to phone. Since my phone contact folder is empty right now, I want to get these back from itunes. I am hoping those outlook contacts are stored on itunes and can then be downloaded to my phone, but I do not want to do a complete restore as the last time the phone was synced was a long time ago and contacts will be lost. If the sync writes an empty contacts folder onto itunes then the restore will not even be an option. Just want to make sure I do not overwrite any contacts that are stored on itunes.
By the way, icloud for contacts was not on so I do not have that route of recovery.
Help.Exchange contacts exist only on the Exchange server, and are automatically deleted when the account is remove. This is standard security policy of Exchange accounts. They would not have been backed up to iCloud in any event.

whilst updating boyfriends iPhone 4 it got accidentally unplugged from iTunes's .
when reconnected it starting syncing all contacts from my phone and did not list his phone in
the devices drop down bar.
help everything gone from his phone and now he has some of my contacts and his phone says
its called Emma iPhone now instead of Tony's iPhone.
where has his back up data got stored?Your only choice at this point is to restore your iphone. Since it appears from your post that you have never synced to this computer, you of course will not have a backup to restore from. That means your only choice is to restore as a new device & re-sync your itunes content. Unfortunately, all of your contacts, calendars, pics in your camera roll, etc., will be lost. Its not a good idea to use the iphone or any phone for that matter as a storage device, as things like this can & do happen. You should be syncing on a regular basis. The first thing done when you do sync is an iphone backup. You should also transfer pics in your camera roll to a supported application on your computer on a regular basis, much like any digital camera. You can always sync pics back to your phone, but if the only copies are on the phone, you run the risk of losing them.
See if you can force the phone into recovery mode:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. -
I'm having all kinds of problems since loading Lion and I really wish I hadn't bought it yet. Even after the software update today, 1. my modem still won't work, 2. Photoshop Elements produces muddy photo prints, 3. View preferences in windows don't hold, etc. Anybody at Apple listening? Anybody else out there having these kinds of problems?
10.7 was horrible unstable so I waited until 10.7.1 and tried it again. Well I have to say that it is still a defective OS. I am reverting to Snow as we speak from my carbon clone copy.. This is really the worst OSX I have ever used. It gives me random Kernel panics for no reasons, unstable airport and hundreds of small issues that are just not necessary. For instance I can't use QuickTime in Lion to trim a videoclip ( the UI goes mad and the trimslider becomes inoperable and hangs the Player window ) while in Snow it is no problem. Itunes gives me crackling sound when the equalizer is turned on, Graphical glitches in Photoshop, games crashing, Preview.app not working with some pdfs, so I need Adobes reader which I never used before.. It is definately not ripe for mass usage. Might 10.7.2 or 10.7.3 fix it, but not yet.
* and just for the records : the hardware is absoltely ok. Because in Snow it works as it should. ( So many Lion fanbois are talking : "your Ram is defect", defintely NOT. - Lion is defect! ).
Shame on you Apple.

after finish software updates IOS 7 in my iphone 4s its showing connect to itunes after i connect with itunes its showing 40 hours remaining for update. But still not finish even after every 30-45 minutes showing error. What i will do please guide me. I'm connecting my device with my acer laptop windows 7 professional.
firstly thanks for quick reply.
sorry sir,
i am confused in last line you wrote,
" This will erase the phone but you will be given an option at the end to restore to an existing backup, if you have one."
i did not understand last sentence - if i have one? you mean to say if i have data or not in my iphone?
i have many pictures, messages, contacts which are very much important.
so will it be all restore and will be backup again in my iphone if i restore?
i am extremely sorry to interrupt you again.
waiting for your quick reply
thanks and regards,

Error in Phone Software Update page ???
When looking for a software-update for 6131
-> Update over-the-air
Step 2/6 says Back-up data ... to memory card ...
I might be blind, but I didn't see a backup option on my 6131.
Did anyone see?
Perhaps it's an option for S60 phones!?
Greetings
Carzan
Nokia 6131 V5.50Hi,
I checked the software update link on Nokia-UK site and found the follows info in update over PC:
Personal data such as contacts, photos and messages stored in the phone memory may be deleted during phone software update. Before updating your phone software, we recommend you back up this data to your PC using Nokia PC Suite Software. Once your phone software is updated, you can restore the data using PC Suite.
This is correct text. And update over-the-air text is not correct. Just push next if you saved all data from your phone.

SAPMMC All Settings Gone after running CCCleaner , How to get all settings
Hello All
SAPMMC All Settings Gone after running CCCleaner , How to get all settings back .
I donot know what is SID ( System ID ), Instance etc.
If this is not relevant to this forum plz let me know which forum ....
Regards
RohitTurns out those error messages it gave me were because it didn't sync properly and create a backup. Which is why when I restored from backup it didn't reload my old info. Instead of assuring me that I would have the option to restore my info, it would have been nice had it told me that a backup hadn't been completed and that restoring my phone without it would leave me with nothing.
Tech support had me use my old SIM card to import my old contacts. This worked, but I've entered contacts since getting the new phone that aren't on my old SIM. And doing so left me with a bunch of re-organizing to do (deleting, combining, entering First and Last name fields...) it took me several hours.
I didn't get my appointments back, cause my old phone was just a phone, and that info wasn't on the old SIM, but I'm REALLY glad I got my contacts. -
My xpreia not found in about phone software updates
After buying this phone and spending ages setting it all up, I find that I can not activate the my xperia feature. Sony website says go to settings/about phone/software updates to find options but nothing is there, just stating that phone is up to date !
How do I activate my xperia on the E1 ? I am wanting to setup the lost phone feature.
Thank you.Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
The My Xperia update rolls out gradually and may not be available for all devices yet. If haven't got the My Xperia update you could use the Google tracking service instead in the meantime. Go to https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager for more information.

iPad mini will not let me access mail after latest software update, 6.1.2, seems to want me to sign in, but whenever I type my Id ad password it just says that the mail account already exists.. Still can't open my mail!

I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it. -
