Contacts and contact pictures

I have a Blackberry Curve 8530 series through Sprint. Fairly often, I will assign a picture to a contact and it will stay there a few days, then all of a sudden that contact no longer has a photo assigned to them. When it happens, one time it was every contact that had a picture, but all the other times it would be just one particular contact. It is never a Facebook issue or anything either because 2 of the contacts it happens with don't even have any Facebook or any other account linked to my phone..
Also, recently phone reset a few of my contacts all together. It both deleted their pictures, and it reset their numbers. For example. a friend of mine got his number changed nearly 3 months ago. I deleted his old number out of my phone and replaced it with his new number. All of a sudden out of nowhere 2 days ago, I was calling him and it kept going to another person. Finally I looked at his contact profile and realized that his new number was no longer there, and instead his old number was there... I had just viewed his contact profile 2 days before this incident and his new number was there, because i read it off to another friend..

Isn't there ANYONE that can provide advice on this topic????????????

HT1386 I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S). I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone. But not sure how to do that.

I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S). I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone. But not sure how to do that. When I open iTunes it has a button that say "Back Up iPhone", but I'm not sure what that does. When I go into the sync options it say I have another user account and asks me if I want to merge of replace. I'm assuming it's trying to tell me I have an older iTunes Library, but don't know that. Geez, maybe people over 60 shouldn't have iPhones, iTunes just bafles me.

My computer crashed and I have to get my data from my old drive to another computer, to ensure I get all my data what do I need to get. I have and ipad and an iphone. I need to get apps, contacts, pictures, etc. Is there a way to do this? It was a vista pc and the new is win 7. I can grab the backup files, and music, but what about my apps? I do not want to sync on the new pc since the apps aren't there. Were are the app files located in itunes? Can I just copy them to the new computer?

You can transfer itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
The iphone is not a storage/backup device. The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The exception is itunes purchases.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everything back.

My iPhone has my old email set up throught iCloud. How do I reset my new username with the device without deleting everything. And if I have to delete my old account, will everything (contacts, pictures, games, apps, etc.) be erased from my phone.

Your old ID connects to an icloud account containing all your data (email, contacts, etc.) If you then use a different ID, you will connect to a different account, which results in losing all your "apple" data, like emails, contacts, calendars, etc.
However, Apple IDs are also used to connect to an itunes store account, with is different. You can keep using the old itunes store ID to keep all your purchases (but if you change to a different ID, you will lose all purchased items) and use the new ID for icloud (but losing emails, contacts, etc. from the old account).

I erased everything on my iphone and lost all my contacts pictures and everything how do i get all that back from my itunes account??

I erased everything on my iphone and lost all my contacts pictures and everything else how do i get the contacts and pictures back from my itunes account?? ive tried restore its like it gave me a whole new iphone thing.

If you plug in the iPhone to your computer, any contacts ect that you synced with your computer with sync back with the iPhone when it is selected in the iTunes menu under info. Anything that was added without syncing was lost, I'm sorry. A good future solution is to get iOS 5 when it comes out this fall, so you don't need to manually sync contacts, its automatic!

- You do have iTunes version 11 on the computer, right. Saying the latest is not sufficient.
- Have you tried everthing here:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- You should
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
Your library/media will not be affected.
- Does the iPod charge?

Lost all contacts, pictures, and videos on ios 7, syncing iphone to itunes/icloud how do i restore it back, lost all contacts, pictures, and videos on ios 7, syncing iphone to itunes/icloud how do i restore it back

I updated itunes 11.1.5 and I accidently restored all my settings back to my old phone that was backed up onto my computer, I lost everything that was set up on my phone, contacts, pictures, videos, emails...etc.. how do I get my old setup back without doing a factory data reset?

Restore the device again using the most recent backup.
If there is no more recent backup and the pictures were not copied off the device prior to the original restore, they are gone. Same goes for videos taken with the device.
Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service, simply sync them back.
Any content acquired from iTunes should be on iTunes on the computer, simply sync it back.

I have an iPhone 4s iOs 5.1.1, I want to update it to iOs 7, if I've backed up to iCloud will my contacts, pictures and text messages be saved and able to be restored if lost?

I have an iPhone 4s iOs 5.1.1,( I know I need an update!) I want to update it to iOs 7, if I've backed up to iCloud will my contacts, pictures and text messages be saved and able to be restored if lost? I recently backed up to the iCloud as recently as this morning at 2AM.

OCD with good reason
With a second backup, as you now have, you are well protected. The update makes a backup to use for restoring after the install but with another you should be in great shape.
Just take you time and be patient, these can take a while to complete depending on server load, connection speed, etc.

Issues with Contact Pictures: Outlook 2010 and BlackBerry Desktop Software 6.1.0.36

Hi guys,
I have been trying to syncronize my contacts for many days now, with the following problems with the contact pictures:
1) Some contacts simply do not syncronize the pictures: Randomly, some contacts where I add a Picture in Outlook 2010 do not show the pictures in my Blackberry. Even worst: If make a change in any other field, the change in that field is detected, but the former value and value of the picture simply appear blank, even when the contact has a picture in outlook.
2) If I add a picture in Outlook it is first syncronized to the BlackBerry. If I re-run the sync, all the pictures are re-syncronized back again from the BlackBerry to Outlook, but with a lower resolution, reducing the quality of all my contact's pictures. I also syncronize my Outlook to a couple of smartphones from other companies that do display high resolution pictures, diminishing the quality of the pictures displayed in the other devices.
This has been very frustrating, please help.
Thanks,
Marco

Unfortunately, no one from the BlackBerry team has replied (read?) my post. I simply changed the sync options to be unidirectional so that the BB won't replace the pictures with lower quality ones, Of course, I do not use my BB anymore to create new contacts, I do it in my other phones. For those contacts not showing a picture, I deleted the contacts and created them again. I really hope that someone at Blackberry realizes that High Quality contact pictures are appreciated within the BlackBerry users community and that they do something about it.

Nokia E52 display caller's name and contact pictur...

Can someone advise me on possible problem with my E52 - I am very pleased with most aspects of the phone but it is not showing the name of the caller or the contact picture when I receive a call (just the number).
Surely it is standard for every Nokia phone to show name of caller? I know S Ericsson phones show name and picture for both call and text. Nokias should at lease display the name?
Can anyone please advise on this?
Thanks
Solved!

When i downloaded itunes to my husbands iphone all of his contacts,pictures erased and downloaded my contacts and pictures. how can i reset all his information? please help

When I downloaded my Itunes list to my husbands IPhone, all of his contacts, pictures erased and MY contacts and pictures downloaded to his phone. How can I restore or get back his information to his phone?

He needs to restore his phone using the computer he normally syncs with. He also needs to pay more attention to the prompts he gets before he just clicks on "OK"...
There is no way to "undo" this. Sounds like he plugged it into a computer he'd never synced with before and it offered to restore from an existing backup... yours.

Where did you get the device? Is it possible that it has an IT policy on the device blocking Facebook and/or Facebook options? Look in Options >Security Options >General Settings (actual menu paths vary with OS version) and see if there is any reference to IT policy.

Is it possible for your iphone to be hacked so that someone can text message people in your contacts (and send pictures)? If so can you trace the hack and how can you stop it?

Is it possible for your iphone to be hacked?so that someone can text message people in your contacts (and send pictures)? If so can you trace the hack and how can you stop it?

As has been said, the iPhone itself can't be hacked this way, as far as anyone currently knows.
Your Apple ID is another story. Any kind of online accounts can be hacked, and Apple IDs are no exception. If someone hacks your Apple ID, they could see all the data in the associated iCloud account, such as contacts, and could send those contacts texts that would appear to come from you. If that were to happen, you should see an alert on your other devices that your Apple ID is being used with Messages on a new device.
If you have not seen that alert, it's unlikely that this problem is occurring due to such a hack. In that case, it would be more likely that either someone has gotten their hands on your phone, or some other Apple device registered to your Apple ID, and has used it to send that message. Or that the person claiming you sent a picture is lying for some reason.
If you believe your Apple ID may have been hacked, you should change your password immediately (at appleid.apple.com). You should also seriously consider enabling two-factor authentication on your Apple ID.

I need to change my Icloud ID on my Iphone,my question is:If I delete my old account would I lose my data for my contacts and their pictures ids?????Please help

If I delete my icloud account would this also delete my contact info and their pictures Ids????????please HELP

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It you delete the account, you don't delete the data on the account. So if you log back in, everything will sync back again.
If you are asking if the data will stay on the phone, you have the option to keep it or remove it. You might be better turning each service off one by one here, before actually deleting the account.

Will my contacts and their pictures including their number be back if I restore it from itune?

So I'm planning to Erase All Content And Settings on my iphone. But before that, of course I'd do I back up. So will my contacts and their pictures be back if I restore them from the back up?
