All old e-mails are gone after update

After updating my Gen. 1 iPhone to 2.0 today, I noticed that all the e-mail messages that were on the phone were gone. Inbox, Sent, all of them. Is anybody else experiencing this? I haven't yet tried sending an e-mail to see if my phone is having the same sending issues many of you seem to be having....

I contacted Apple Support to ask for a solution. During a couple of days I received several phone calls asking for info of my different devices and configurations. They didn't have an explanation for my problem and only can recover e-mails for one week ago and. They decide to report to engineering to see what happened and recover the rest.
Meanwhile, after 3 days, my Mail program start to download ALL my mail again. 5000 unreaded e-mails in my inbox. The same way they disappeared they returned. No explanation, no moves, no clicks, nothing. IPhone and iPad sync perfectly.
Two days after that  (weekend) Apple Support has called me again (this morning). And that's the strangest part, they have bad news for me because they (nor support neither engineers) cannot recover my lost e-mails!!! Then, I've told them my e-mail has returned and they didn't know it. My problem was solved but Apple Support didn't have a clue why or when. 
Happy end but my confidence in iCloud Service has decreased a lot. I've been using my mac.com adress for more than 10 years (most of them paying around 100$) and I didn't expect that kind of surprises and unknwoledge from Apple.

    The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
    The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
    If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

  • All of my songs are GONE after i updated my Nano to 1.2!!!!

    well last night i connected my nano to my computer, then started up itunes nd i get a msg to update it to version 7.0. So i installed it then it asks me to upgrade to version 1.2 for the ipod. so i'm like WHy not.
    after the firmware for the ipod has been updated, i disconnected the cable, i went through my ipod and i noticed it asking me which language i wanted, so i scrolled down to english. then i went through my songs n next thing i know, everything is GONE.
    i connected my nano back to the comp, nothing shows up on Itunes either. But when i went on My Computer to check my ipod, it does show how much space my songs have taken up!
    so it may seem like the songs are still on my ipod but its just not showing anywhere... i tried to look through the folder MUSIC on my ipod, but nothing is there, however when i looked in the folder Artwork, theres a few big random files :

  • Favicons on safari 7.1 are gone after update.

    Hi ..
    WebpageIcons database may be corrupted after the update.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    ~/Library/Safari/WebpageIcons.db
    Click Go then move the WebpageIcons.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

  • My bookmarks are gone after updating firefox mobile. Can I restore them?

    I updated Firefox on my Samsung Galaxy S2, and after opening the new version I discovered my bookmarks were gone. Is there any way I can get them back?
    Not sure if this is relevant, but when I look at the Application settings, it shows firefox has about 400MB of data. I have no cleared this data as I feel the bookmark info may be included in that somewhere? But is there any way to access it?

    Make sure, you lost the bookmark or not.

  • HT4859 After the i-cloud server issue Nov 26, 2012, I had to change some mail account settings to get my i-cloud mail to work again.  However, all of my received e-mails are gone.  How do I retrieve my e-mails from the server?

    After the i-cloud server issue yesterday, November 26, 2012, my i-cloud mail account on my Macbook Pro stopped receiving mail.  I changed some mail account settings to fix the issue, and was able to start receiving e-mails.  However, all of my historical e-mails are gone.  How do I retrieve all of my old e-mails from the server?

    What settings did you change, what were the changes, have you visited www.icloud.com to see what mail is actually there? and do you have a backup?
