Contacts wiped out on iphone 5 after ios 6 update, how do I restore.

Help, I stupidly installed the ios 6 update on my iphone 5 without researching it first and now my contacts (except for facebook contacts) got wiped out and my text messages do not tell me who they are coming from. Any ideas how to fix this?

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.

Contacts wiped out on iPhone

I have an Iphone 4S running 7.1.1. Just now I lost all my contacts; I have no idea why. The folder says 'no contacts'
My Favorites are all listed just as numbers, no names. Contacts are fine on my iPad Air and macBook Pro.
Any ideas what went wrong and how to get them back?
Thanks
Shelley

Loading FF4 wiped out a large number of tabs, how do I restore?

I thought I was loading a security update. WHAT?! ALL MY TABS I WAS USING ARE WIPED OUT? Really? Or have you added a way to restore them?
Apparently the default setting on FF4 is to destroy the preserved tabs during the update.
My browser had a large number of tabs preserved. FF4 apparently wiped them out without asking. WTF people, why pull such unexpected stuff on your users. (Yes, I'm really pissed. It will take me hours to track down a couple of those pages again.) It wouldn't have been so bad if I knew I was getting FF4. Then I could bookmark the open pages. Again, I thought it was a security update.
The fix: have FF4 detect preserved tabs once (during the update,) then display a warning message to allow users to bring the tabs into the new updated browser.

Thanks. I assumed I needed to set in and out points. I have not done an image sequence in FCP. If I have a 10 second image and a 2 second transition, but then change the duration of the transition to say 4 seconds then FCP will let me alter the transition duration?
With regards to movie clips, what happens with setting global in and out points? How would I do that?
Thanks in advance

I am having trouble with my iPod 5th gen after iOS update. It's in recovery mode and iTunes keeps timing out when I try to restore it. What should I do??? If possible, I would also like to keep all of my data.

As with all clickwheel iPods, you can reset this iPod by first toggling the hold switch on and off and then simultaneously pressing the select (center) and menu buttons for approximately 5-10 seconds. This is a common fix should your iPod behave unexpectedly or lock up. Once reset, the iPod should display an Apple logo for a few seconds before showing the main menu. This procedure is similar to rebooting a computer and damages none of your music or data.

HT4623 iPhone is asking me to restore after ios update, did I loose everything?, what do I do??

I updated itunes today (after I did a backup of my daughter's iphone), when we went to do the ios update on the phone, all looked ok and install began. Now it is asking to restore to factory, and nothing is showing up on phone at all. What can I do?.....Did we loose everything? Itunes looks normal. and library is there.

a large iOS update requires you to restore from your backup. If you did the update through iTunes, it should've automatically created a backup, so just plug it in and restore

Contact list deleted after ios update

This is the craziest thing I ever imagined . My whole conytact list is gone after ios update ..

This is not bug!
Alas, in other Symbian smartphones I examined, the background in Contacts and background in theme are the same, and Nokia in firmware 110 for E71, E66 made the same causing inconvenience
As for my opinion, previous always white background in Contacts looked better

I have apparently wiped out my iPhone 4 contacts list, my apps, and my photos, etc. by syncing with iTunes. Is there any way to restore what I had?

I have apparently wiped out my iPhone 4 contacts list, my apps, and my photos when I synced with iTunes. Maybe I clicked the wrong button, but I just wanted to download the photos from my phone to my computer. Is there any way to restore my previous information?

Did you sync to itunes from a different computer than the one you normally sync to?
syncing to itunes doesn't just wipe out all your data.
If you have a backup of your phone you can restore to that backup.

Why are my contacts and calendars showing up on my daughter's iphone after I updated? Help!

Why are my contacts and calendar showing up on my daughter's iphone after I updated? Is there anyway to remove them or stop
them from going directly to her phone? Help!!!! Thanks guys

So, am I to conclude from all this that the best thing for one iMac and multiple family devices (2 x iphones, 1 x itouch, 2 x ipods) is to set up itunes account for each family member. We don't use iCloud except for my (primary iphone)
We had similar problems to the above, and since the recent 6.0.1 update we've started getting each others texts, on top of my wife and I's contacts being replicated to our young son's itouch, and a seemingly random redistribution of apps.

Why did I lose my apps on my iPhone after I update to IOS 6?

I would guess that it is because you failed to make sure that they were all on your computer before you updated.

Cannot join network after ios update

After ios update i cannot join on my ipad network

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

How can I improve picture quality...now grainy after IOS update!

How can I improve picture quality...now grainy after IOS update!

Hello, dreamer5th.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here are some troubleshooting steps that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue. They are labeled for the iPhone; however, the steps also apply to your iPad. Also, make sure to test the camera in well lighted conditions as this can affect picture quality.
Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.

If the issue persists see the last section labeled Issue not resolved.
Cheers,
