Deleted phone contacts...Help!

I am new to the iphone and have the iphone5s. I have only had the phone for a couple of weeks and didn't install any backup to icloud. While trying to install my email contacts , my phone contacts were deleted. Is there any way to get them back???
P.S. I have now installed the cloud...Better late then never, I guess...

Yikes! I regret to learn that the contacts have been deleted. Did you have them backed up previously with the Backup Assistant? If so, go to vzw.com/backupassistant to ensure that they are saved there. If they are, go to the App Store and download the Backup Assistant application, run it to restore the contacts.
Here is how to backup with iTunes: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1382
Let us know if you have further questions or concerns.

I delete my contacts from iCloud, as I can recover?
Please help me
I don't no how I delete all iPhone contacts :(

The difficulty in restoring iCloud data from a back up is that the back up is older than the current version on iCloud and anything that is restored gets removed again when an iCloud sync occurs.
Ensure the device is connected to your local network.
Start the restore from iCloud back up.
Allow the devices settings to restore (watch for the confirmation of completion).
As the apps begin to restore pull the connection to your router WAN port (the one that goes to the telephone point).
Wait for the time out confirmation.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn off contact syncing (keep contacts when prompted).
Reconnect the router to the internet and let the restore process complete.
Delete any iCloud contacts from iCloud.com on a computer.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn on contact syncing (merge contacts when prompted).
May I suggest that you carry out a back up to iTunes before you try anything, that way should things become even worse, you can at least restore back to where you are now.

Phone contact / Help

I needed to call regarding a billing issue and no matter what phone number i called, the one on my bill or the one in a letter I got regarding my question, i was disconnected every time. This is not good quality customer service. If your phone lines are so backed up this does not seem to be a good sign as well. What is going in there? My time is valuable too. But i have to make time now to keep trying to get through. again, not good customer service. Better re-think all of your advertising

Hi GloriaEmail,
I apologize for the delayed response. I am so sorry for the customer experience that you have described. I understand how frustrating it can be calling multiple times with no resolution. I am more than happy to take a look at your account and rectify any issues. Let me know if I can be of assistance.

My friend wanted to get some music off my itunes
This is called "stealing". You do not have the legal right to give her the music you have in your iTunes library unless you are the copyright holder.
when syncing it it said she had to update her phone software first
That's not quite what it said. Someone should have paid more attention to the great big warning about the possibility of losing data if the phone wasn't backed up.
We cannot find her new photos. Please help and there was 100 new pics. Is there any way we can get them back. I already have the program Asoftech - but it doesnt seem to register the iphone only C and D drive. Please help!
It restored the backup that was made on your computer 6 months ago, which did not contain those photos. You're wasting your time trying to find them on the phone. They don't exist.
Hopefully, your friend syncs her phone to her own computer on a regular basis. She needs to plug her phone into her computer and restore it from her last backup. That will restore it to the state it was in when the backup was made.
She also needs to get in the habit of extracting the photos on a regular basis, like she would from any other digital camera.

My grandson deleted my phone, contacts email and one other setting from my new iPhone 4s. How do I recover them????? HELP

My grandson deleted my phone, contacts, email and one other icon from the bottom of my iPhone 4s screen. How do I recover them????? HELP!!!!

If they are in a folder, tap the folder and tap and hold the icon and move it out of the folder and on to the screen you wish. If they are on a different screen, tap and hold the icon until it wiggles, then move it to the edge of the screen and hold for a second or two until it jumps to he adjacent screen.

Simply turn off the iPhone for about 60 seconds, and see if they reappear. If not, I would call Apple Care at 800-676-2775.

HT204053 hi i have an ipod which shares same apple id etc as my iphone i was deleting the contacts off my ipod and now they are gone off my phone how can i get them back on my phone? help pls

hiu i have an ipod which shares same itunes/icloud account as my iphone. i deleted the contacts off ipod and they have now gone off my phone too. anyone help, how can iget these back on my phone?

When you share an iCloud account between devices, any action you take on one device (such as deleting contacts) is synced to the others. (That's want iCloud does; syncs data across devices, keeping the data on the devices the same.)
The only way to recover them now is to try restoring your device to your last backup, or restore them from another backup source.

HT4859 Ive lost my contacts by using a new device on the same iCloud account army phone I deleted the contacts off the iPad and it took them off my phone as well how do I get my contacts back please help

I've lost all my contacts off my phone I synced my I pad with the same account when I deleted the contacts from the I pad it deleted them from my phoneidont have it backed up on a pc how do I get it back

If you are saying that you both have iCloud accounts and use the same icloud ID, then yes, the contacts will be deleted. The idea is that all devices using the same icloud ID are kept in sync. You need to use different IDs. You can keep the same iTunes ID so you can share the songs and apps. But use different icloud IDs.

How do I keep my email contacts from being deleted when I delete a phone contact?

Please HELP!! I am a new iphone user and I am not understanding all this "icloud" stuff. I have "Contacts" turned off in my phone's icloud settings and on my computer's icloud settings. Every time I add or delete a contact in my phone, the same changes are made in my email contacts. There are certain contacts I need in my email that I don't need in my phone. Any help would be appreciated. Also, if I have "Find My Iphone" turned on, do I still need an app for it to work and is it true that if a person's phone is lost or stolen it can't be tracked if someone turns off "Find My Iphone" (if a restrictions passcode has not been set up) in the icloud settings?

I got an upgrade to iPhone 5 and gave my my daughter my iPhone 4S.....however it appears our phones are syncd! If I delete a contact on my phone it will delete from her contacts and visa versa.

My Question...Hello!! I recently got an upgrade to an iPhone 5 &. I gave my old iPhone 4S to my daughter but we are both having issues with contacts...our phones seem to be syncd. If I delete a contact on my phone it disappears off hers & visa versa!!! Also what's app contacts & who knows what else!! Help please????

Don't worry about it mate, with deleting the iCloud off your daughter's phone it will only remove the infomation on her device that was synced onto the device
Let's say you have contacts 1 2 3 4 5
And she has contacts 6 7 8 9 and 4 was synced over to her device
If she deletes the iCloud she will keep her contacts on her device, so 6789 will stay, however she will have an option to keep synced infomation such as 4 on her device or delete it
On your device you will still keep any infomation that was synced over so you would have 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9, and when you delete this infomation once your daughter has disassoicated her APple ID from her phone it will only affect YOUR apple ID.
Anything else I can do for you today mate?

Some contacts have disappeared from my phone contacts. They are still in the phone because if someone calls me their name appears and if i search in text for contacts they are still there - but if i search in phone contacts they are not there, Help

Some contacts have disappeared from my phone. Not all just random ones. They are still in the phone because if someone (who has disappeared from my phone contacts calls me their name appears and if i search in text messages for contacts they are still there - but if i search in phone contacts they are not there, Help!

But once again, I do not want to lose my other texts, app progress, and photos. I could sync the photos but i would still lose the app progress and texts. I would only restore if it was the only option left, but the other space, as already stated, isnt the main concern. The main concern is those 'deleted' texts. If they go, then a good size chunk of the other space goes. I know you CAN delete texts for good. It worked fine before. All i want to know is why its not working for me now, and how to fix it.
I also know that when you delete texts on your iphone, they get marked for deletion, however they stay on your device (thats why they show up when you search for them.) then when you sync your device with itunes, the texts marked for deletion should disappear. When i synced they didnt disappear. Thats what i need an explanation/solution for. Why the texts marked for deletion didnt get fully deleted after the sync.
