Cloud only backs up 9 contacts out of 100 or so I have, why is this?

I just backed up all my pictures and contacts, pictures backed up fine but contacts only backed up 9. Tried again same thing.

I never found an answer to that (Verizon would back up about 15-20% of my contacts) so on my Android I just use Google drive for files and pics and use my gmail to backup contacts.

  • HT1766 I-cloud only backs up my contacts - no pictures,etc.  .

    I-cloud only backs up my contacts - no pictures, etc.    I've read and followed  the instructions on how to back up.  When I log in to icloud, all I see is my contacts - nothing else.   I'm switching to a new phone and wanted to restore everything on my new phone - only to find out that I-cloud doesn't have my informaiton. Can someone help me?

    I thought you said you read that support article? The ONLY photos included in any iPhone backup are photos in your camera roll. No iTunes content...music, apps, etc., is included in any iPhone backup. After you restore from backup, you must either sync to restore your iTunes content or re-download it.
    The contents of any iPhone backup are not viewable or editable.

  • Verizon Cloud not backing up all contacts. LG G3

    I have about 160 contacts on my phone but the verizon cloud only backs up 10 of them.  I'm sure the rest are other accounts or google backed up but i need them in Verizon so i can use the web based messaging app.  Is there any way to get those other contacts into the verizon cloud?

        Hi there stratfordv,
    It definitely sounds strange that you haven't been able to get all of your 160 contacts backed up. When you log into your My Verizon account, are you able to view the contacts there? Please let me know, thanks.

  • çnow won't sync back to my iPad because it says I don't have permission on this computer. I don't want to download it from iTunes again because it took up a lot of bandwidth. What's the deal

    I bourght "E O Wilson's Life on Earth" and backed it up to my iMac. Now it won't sync back to my iPad because it says I don't have permission on this computer. I don't want to download it from iTunes again because it took up a lot of bandwidth. What's the deal?
    I also made the big mistake of downloading a free book about the making of the movie "Frankenweenie." Mega-memory eater. Now it wants to download additions and started to do so---now says paused. I can't delete the bloody thing. Seems like nothing I've downloaded, including free books, can be deleted. How can I get rid of this garbage?
    Is there any way to just transfer my music from my iMac to my iPad and not affect anything else on my iPad? The whole iBooks thing is just a mess as far as I'm concerned. Is there any way to just drag and drop?

    "I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up."
    Correct.  it does not magially appear in other places.  It will only be where you put it.
    "I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where  I sync everything. "
    Correct as well.  Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.  Syncing to another will erase the current content.
    You need to copy everything ( itunes library/contacts/pics/calendars/files/docs) from the old computer, or your backup copy of the old one, to the new one.

  • I have just rented a film and clicked the menu button instead of pause. When I go back to the film to rent again it says I have already rented this go to settings and check for downloads. But there is no download option in settings?

    It does... Apple TV has a problem with the assignment to the itunes account after updating. Restore to factory settings or unlog and news login to the itunes store helps to see the rented/downloaded film(s).

  • HT204053 I turned on cloud to back up my contacts and it erased all my contacts except A and B, how do I get them back?

    I turned on the cloud to back up my notes, calendar, contacts etc.  When I turned on contacts it asked if I wanted to merge, which to me means combine, but when I went back to my contacts all of the A contacts and B contacts were there, but nothing else.  How do I get them back.

    Sorry but I'm a bit confused about what you're asking.  You seem to be indicating that you have an iCloud backup as well as a backup on your computer but it isn't clear to me what you are trying to do with them.  Can you explain this?

  • How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09.  I try but it only lets me import 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow.

    How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09.  I try, but it only exports 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow I made on iPhoto.

    how do i change the format to the right one?
    Before you can decide what to do, you have to know what you are starting with. Sony MPEG-1 files would be converted one way while DivX or WMV files would likely be handled in another. Extraneous tracks can be removed directly with QT Pro but if you don't have QT Pro then there may or may not be other work around possibilities depending on the specific audio and video compression formats in use. The best place to start would normally be to double-clic the source file in iPhoto to open it in the QT Player. When it opens in the QT Player, check the "Inspector" window to see what it says on the "Format:" lines. This will tell you the type of audio and video content you are dealing with here. Then come and tell us so we can offer some specific conversion solutions.

  • HT4489 My iphone 4s will not back up my contact list to the icloud.  Not sure why!!  any ideas?

    My Iphone 4s will not back up my contract list to the icloud.  Not sure why?  Any ideas.  I have tried everything!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I assume you mean sync, not backup.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

  • Find Friends won't show names, only email addresses and Contacts out of sync

    Find Friends recently began to show only email addresses but no contact names. It used to show the names. Not sure what has changed. Messages works fine at showing names, however.
    Also, some of my contacts in Contacts don't show up on my iPhone. Not aware of any syncing problems otherwise. Any ideas on what ot check and how to fix? Thanks.

  • TS4000 Reminders is greyed out in Mountain Lion 10.8. Why is this?

    Nothing visable. Have rebooted and checked ok in preferences. Has anyone else solved this problem? Please help!

    Files beginning with a period are invisible and library files are system files. Spotlight cannot find either unless configured to do so (btw, this is not a Finder issue but a Spotlight issue.)
    Get Spotlight to search system files (and more)
    Enter the search term in the Finder window's search field.
    Click the [+] button in the search bar to add a search option.
    In the first drop down menu choose Other.
    Choose “System Files” from the list that pops up (and check the box to place in drop down menu to avoid this step later,) click on the OK button.
    Now back in the Finder choose Include from the second drop down menu.

  • HT4053 My 4th generation iPod touch with no apps on it only lets me load 7300 songs but its a 64 gb one why is this?

    My brand new iPod touch 64GB which has no extra applications other then what automatically comes with it, no pictures, in other words nothing extra bar standard issue. All I want is to load all my music from my iTunes, however it will only allow me to load 7,334 songs. iTunes keeps coming up with that I am short 21+gigs to be able to load all my music. None of this makes sense, also once having loaded 7000+songs I only have 88mb left! This makes no sense as 64GB should allow me to load at least 30,000 songs. Please help.

    Where did you get the 30,000+ number of songs? The specs for the 5G (or 4G iPod touches) do not spoecify how many songs they can hold. The specs for the 3G iPod say the following. 14,00o in with128 kbps compression
    Capacity
    32GB or 64GB flash drive2
    Holds up to 7,000 or 14,000 songs in 128-Kbps AAC format3
    Holds up to 40,000 or 90,000 iPod-viewable photos4
    Holds up to 40 hours or 80 hours of video5

    How does that help when there is no media as I keep EMPHASISING apart from music. And according to Apple you should be able to load 30,000+songs on a 64GB iPod not 7,000! So this advice is utterly useless isn't it!!!!

  • Safari is the only browser on my computer that will securely connect to websites. Why is this?

    Please help

    On a secure connection in Safari, you should get the 'apple':
    But in Firefox, you'll only get the 'lock':
    ...but the "https" lets you know that you have a 'secure' connection. On Facebook, for example, secure browsing is an option. On sites that support it, it's not.
