Any idea on why contacts disappear from phone?

Any idea on why contacts disappeared?

Because either they were removed from the phone, or you updated and forgot to restore from a backup that had the contacts.
What did you do just before they disappeared? Any editing of settings, updating, etc?

  • Contacts disappeared from phone after iOS 4.2 update

    I updated my iPhone 4 to the new iOS 4.2 and after some contacts disappeared from my phone but are still on my computer. I've tried resetting sync history, I even restored the phone and the same contacts still won't show up. I have a PC that runs Windows 7, I've been using it since September and I never had this issue before.

    Welcome to the discussions,
    did you also try to use the option to replace all contacts on the phone with the ones on the computer during the following sync? You can find this option in the info pane, advanced section.

    Contact Rhapsody to see if they have or plan to release an update for the app. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?

  • I have purchased two audiobooks from iTunes. They play perfectly for about 13 minutes and then abruptly stop. I have purchased other audiobooks and have not had a problem. Please, any ideas on why this is happening and what can I do to fix it.  Thanks!

    As long as you use your computer like King Penguin stated for Report a Problem, you should be fine. If you can't get to your computer, are not using your computer, or your computer is not longer in the mix since you have been using your iPad, email iTunes support about the problem.

    How is Acrobat 8 not fully Windows 7 compatible?  I see discussions on this Adobe Community saying how Acrobat 8 does work on Windows 7 and with 64-bit.  It appears that if Acrobat 8 is updated to the latest version, then this should fix AA8-Win7 issues.  And I am at the latest AA8 version, 8.3.1. 
    And how are Acrobat 8 and Reader XI are not compatible?  I have always had Acrobat and Reader installed on the same PC, without ever having any issues.  And Adobe allows the installation of one after the other.  So apparently Adobe allows them both to exist together.  If they are incompatible, then why would Adobe allow them to exist together? 
    Anyway, I did uninstall the FileOpen Plug-in and the Reader XI, then reinstalled the FileOpen Plug-in.  So now Reader is not installed and only Acrobat 8 is installed.  I then tried to load the PDF file, but I still get the Acrobat 8 error described above. 

  • Anyone know why uploads contacts disappear from the iPhone 5? Half of my number is suddenly gone, and this happens over and over again? Kata-*******-stroff! Grateful for answers?

    do you sync your contacts with an application in your computer? or use iCloud?
    I can't tell you why the contacts disappear but you can get them back without much hassle by syncing through iTunes with your computer.
    do you regularly make backups?  if so, you can restore your iPhone using the backups and get your contacts back in your iPhone.
    It is strange that half of your contacts are gone over and over again.  Do you have Groups that are unchecked in your iPhone?  If so, the contacts in those groups will not appear in your contacts list but they are in your iPhone and be recovered by re-checking the group name.

    Are you saying that you had all your music safely stored in itunes and now it's all gone?  You might try getting back the itunes folder that contains all your music (you haven't told us what kind of computer you're using) from a computer backup, say from a day ago.  If using a mac, look in Time Machine, in the music folder for your account.

  • IPhoto 9.4.3 crashes when trying to sync photos from IPAD running 8.1.  Any ideas on why ?

    iPhoto 9.4.3 crashes when trying to sync photos from IPAD running 8.1.  Any ideas on why ?
    iPhoto runs and keeps trying to read the iPad photos cycling thru a lot of times eventually crashing.

    There may be a corrupted video or image file on your iPad.
    Try to download from the iPad using Image Capture instead and save the photos to a folder. If that succeeds, you can check the files for corruption before importing them to iPhoto.

  • ICloud Contacts disappear from Outlook

    After the ios7 upgrade, my contacts disappear from Outlook.  They are still on iCloud and on my iPhone.
    I have tried the following:
    icloud control panel and unclicking the check box next to contacts and restarting machine and outlook.  Does not bring them back.
    icloud control panel and exiting icloud panel and then restarting machine and then logging back into icloud and reloading contacts.  Brings them back for one session.  Once I exit and get back into Outlook the contacts are goine.
    repairing icloud control panel (uninstalling and reinstalling) and reloading contacts.  Brings them back for one sesson and then disappear again.
    Any ideas.

    Any thoughts on a fix?
