Contacts get wiped out after uploading IOS6

I uploaded IOS6 and my contacts got wiped out. How do I get them back?

An easy way to get your contacts back:
Go to your mail settings -> icloud and turn off contacts. Your contacts should now be visible again. Note that in most cases, the contacts are not actually missing. It's just that the contacts list has an issue where it seems to have trouble displaying the contacts when multiple lists are active. Once your contacts are back, you can turn icloud contacts back on and re-merge them. Note that when you turn it off, it will give you the option to keep or delete contacts on your phone - click KEEP!

  • All my contacts are wiped out, how do I get them back??

    All my contacts are wiped out, how do I get them back? I tried to reboot my phone by turning it completely off and on again and that didn't help. I tried syncing to the compluter on itunes and that didn't help, and I tried calling AT&T and that didn't help. They said to make an appt. with Apple and hopefully they could help. They also said that 3 other people came in their store with the same issue this week. If someone out there knows how I could get contacts back on my phone please let me know. Thanks.

    There are no contacts on or in iTunes. iTunes does not store contacts. iTunes can serve as the sync conduit to sync contacts between your iPhone and a supported address book app on your computer. This is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    Certainly you don't depend on an iPhone or any cell phone alone for such important data which can be lost or stolen, damaged beyond repair, or there can be a hardware or software problem preventing access to the contacts.
    Windoze or Mac?
    Your contacts are not available anywhere on your computer?

  • Contact Ringtones & Photos getting wiped out during sync

    I hope someone else has experienced this issue and can help me. I get on my iPhone 3G and assign ringtones and photos to my contacts, but the photos and ringtones don't "push" to MobileMe, so that every time I do a sync with iTunes for new music and videos, the photos and ringtones get wiped out and everything goes back to Default. I can go in and set Contact photos in MobileMe, but I have no way to set ringtones for those contacts there. Any suggestions?

    I have the same problem with Entourage -- every time I sync, all of my specific iPhone info is lost: ringtone and photo specifically. In order to use Entourage, it has to be synced through Address Book and iCal. What a kludge this is! Unfortunately I haven't found a suitable workaround and I refuse to use Apple's horrible little Mail, Address Book and iCal apps in place of the rather elegant (dare I say this) Microsoft Entourage.

    why dont you put all of your contacts on your sim card ? then if they do get wiped then you can transfer them from your sim to your phone but this is just a way to speed up the process
    Not possible.
    The iPhone does not save contact information on the sim card.

    hi - i have recently upgraded to an iphone and find that when i open my MS Outlook on my computer, the emails that were on the iphone get wiped out. Has anyone got a solution to this problem? I'm sure it's very simple when you know the answer! Thanks.

    Pay no attention to iinami, the amount of replies to people saying their handsets must have been jailbroken everytime iTunes throws out an error is tremendous. (Clearly you don't need to have any real knowledge to get to level 3 on these forums, let's hope apple's geniuses know a lot more than some of their customers.)

    Solution below.
    Error 9
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

    Check you haven't been infected by a Botnet:
    Simply put, a bot – which is short for robot – is an automated computer program that allows outside sources to control computers remotely without the users' knowledge. A botnet is a network of hundreds or thousands of computers infected with botnet malware that communicates covertly with a command-and-control (CnC) server run by a type of cybercriminal called a botmaster. Unbeknownst to the individual users, their computers are linked in a rogue network which the botmaster can utilize for a variety of nefarious purposes.

  • IPhone Calendar wiped out after sync with an empty Outlook 2003 Calendar

    I need some help.
    iPhone Calendar wiped out after sync with an empty Outlook 2003 Calendar.
    Unable to restore from backup as my iPhone was backed-up before I realised my calendar info was gone.
    I found an old backup file in my old disk but was unable to move the old calendar data to the empty outlook after restore. It just keep wiping out after I sync.

    I have managed to find an old back up to restore my iPhone. However even with at least one entry in my outlook, my calendar details on my iPhone was still wiped out and was not transferred to my outlook.

  • TS3274 when i go into an app,i get kicked out after a few seconds.

    everytime that i try to go into an app,I always get kicked out after a few seconds of being in an app.

    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Or Quit all apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Contacts Completely Wiped Out -- on iPhone and Computer!

    My contacts have been completely deleted and I do not know how or why. I have my iPhone sent for Push synchronization and today I went to look up a contact and they are all gone. They are also all gone on my MacBook Pro. I haven't checked my Mac Pro to see if they are there, but since they were all set to sync, I assume they are gone. What could have happened and how do I get them back? Thanks.

    I thought I did them on itunes but they are not showing up there either. I wasn't on icloud prior to the update. I tried a restore through itunes and that didn't work. Have been going through the boards trying to find a solution but most answers are to the ios 5 update and are not working for me. I'm beginning to think that I am going to have to do them manually. I don't understand why it wiped out my regular contacts but not the facebook ones.

  • AD account getting locked out after password change in Jabber

    When user changes his network credentials and does not update them in Jabber. Jabber will still try to connect to phone services and voicemail with the old credentials which is leading to their account getting locked in AD after three attempts.
    We are using Jabber 9.6.1, so a fairly new version.
    Can some suggest if there is a workaround?

    Hi,
    We are seeing a similar issue after the user has changed their AD password the account repeatedly gets locked out when they try to log into Jabber. 
    We are also using Cisco IM&P and our CUCM is LDAP synced
    I am interested to know why you are asking if LDAP authentication is configured?

  • Settings Get Zeroed out after File Export

    I just noticed that out of a group of about 110 JPGs I was editing tonight, about 5 of them had their Develop Settings zeroed out after I exported the files.
    Examples:
    1.  One file's Fill Light went from 14 to 0 after File Export.
    2.  Another file's Fill Light went from 17 to 0 after File Export.
    3.  Still another file's Black went from 3 to 0; its Brightness went from +5 to 0; it's Contrast went from -1 to 0....all 3 things on the same file zeroed out.
    4.  Still another file's Black went from 1 to 0, and its Contrast went from -3 to 0.
    5.  Another file was rotated by .28.  After exporting, the rotation in the history went from .28 to 0.
    One other problem I saw with at least 2 of these files (different than the 5 above), I had created virtual pictures for these 2 and exported them as TIFFs to Photoshop CS3.  After the TIFF file was updated with CS3, it automatically was reimported to LR.  There is no "Import" listed in the history, nor is there any "Created Virtual Copy" in the history.
    I don't think I'm doing anything wrong; again, there have only been 5 out of about 110 JPGs for which as happened.

    I think I have that box checked, but I'm not sure where to find it.  I seem to recall having checked something like this before, but, again, I just can't
    seem to find where it is.  I've checked in Preferences and do not see it, as well as other places.
    Anyway, I do not export files to CS3 very often, but I know that every time I do, the edited file gets added back into the LR Catalog when I close out the file in Photoshop CS3.  I typically export these files to CS3 keeping the LR adjustments.
    I originally had this set of images sorted by File Name.  I did that because within this set are pictures taken from 2 different cameras, with two completely different types of file names.  I wanted only to work on the images from one camera at a time.  While sorted by File Name, the edited file does get added to the Catalog, stacked upon the original file....so, yes, they are side by side.
    I did try sorting by Capture Time, but that didn't make any difference.
    Because my other problem of settings being zeroed out appeared to be "fixed," I was hoping this problem also would be fixed.  But when I tried the same procedure as last night (only with the files sorted by Capture Time instead of by File Name), the same thing happens...there is no "Import" listed in the History panel.
    What has been "fixed," however, is that for those few files that I made a Virtual Copy of, the History panel now shows "Create Virtual Copy."  I did not do anything to these files.  Perhaps the reboot of my computer fixed this.  I really don't know.
    As mentioned, I do not export files very often to CS3, so this problem may have always existed (not showing "Import").
    Thanks for your reply....I'll watch for more in the future, but because the problem happened again this morning, I think it is perhaps a software bug.
