E63 has lost all my contacts!

As the title says, my Nokia E63 has suddenly lost all my contacts. The phone is only a couple of months old and is on the 3 network.
How do I get all my contacts back? This really should not be happening to a brand new phone. 
Thanks for any replies. 

Hi 1992LP
As you mentioned, "This really should not be happening to a brand new phone".
any phone doesn't have the option to "autodelete" any private things from the phone " except internet cokies", and also not any program.  The only thing i'm thinking about what happened is
1) you "by mistake" deleted them all
2) you tried one of the coods that do reset for the phone without backing up the contacts , messages , calender
3) you installed a program that controlls contacts
4) you gave the phone to someone you trust then he/she deleted them
5) you copied them to the SIM card and deleted them from the phone
The only thing to get contacts back if you are sure that they are completely deleted from the phone is to restore them either from restore a previous backup you have made on the PC using Nokia PC suite or OVI suite, or to recopy them back from the sim
I hope that helped you, please check them up and let me know

  • HT4528 For the second time in two weeks, my 4s has lost all my contact names. The phone numbers are still there, but every last name has disapeared. What is happening?

    For the second time in two weeks, my Iphone 4s has lost all my contact names. The phone numbers still remain without any of the names, What is causing this to happen?

    1.  I assume that that suggests that it is not normal for a browser window to respond with minimisation?  It is just weird when a window just disappears, no reason given (and since there is no obvious loss of internet it can take you by chance)
    2.  Good that you ask.  No, it hasn't.  I meant to say when I first posted.
    3.  Thanks, I gather that.  It is just that Mavericks is so different from what I am used to.  Sigh...
    4.  It has calmed down but there is absolutely no rhyme or reason to it.  Forgot to mention that I had my first ever crash of Final Cut Pro since I have been using it nearly daily for four years.  I even had Chrome crash on me in mid-upload (drat, drat, drat!).  I don't click or plough on- I stop, think and consider. Hence me posting.  Mavericks is just not as "smooth" as Snow Leopard to me.
    5.  Yes, I understand.  I just wish it would show me both instead of just the one with the "1". 
    Tell me about it!  It is impossible, I came here to answer via the link in the emailed notification, was already signed out and signed in and was returned to the front page.  Had to go back to my Mail, click the link again and this time, luckily, I was signed in.  In other words- the session is impossibly short and signing in doesn't return you to the browser window you were but rather returns you to the front.  Meh.

  • My iphone 4s has lost all my contacts

    Out of nowhere my ipohone 4s has lost almost every contact.
    The interesting thing- is the numbers that remain were all added after my last sync.
    Even in the "cloud" it just has the new numbers....and I am not paying apple $19 for a one-time apple care troubleshooting session.
    Anyone have suggestions as to what happened?  At this point it appears even syncing it with computer won't work...

    In Regards to this, You possibly wont be able to get the contacts from the iPhone 4 unless there is a back up file on your computer.
    The original phone would be disabled due to alot of attempts of the wrong passcode. If all your contacts are on the cloud at the moment, you would be able to just set the iPhone 4S up with iCloud on it then Turn On "Contacts".
    This would be bring all the contacts down from your iCloud onto your 4S.
    But you will only be able to merge your contacts with the cloud when your original iPhone either has been enabled or the passcode was entered.
    If you have previously already had iCloud on that device and have contacts Turned on, you will be able to just enter the same Apple ID you used for iCLoud on your original phone and use it on your new one.
    Your able to check what content your iCloud holds via www.icloud.com
    If you are unable to get past the disabled screen, then unfortunately the device will have to be put into recovery mode and then restored via iTunes NOTE: This will delete all data.

  • Upgrade to iOS4.2.1 has lost all my Contacts, Notes, Calendars!

    Hi,
    I sync'd my iPhone 3G with iTunes yesterday and was prompted to install the latest 4.2.1 phone update. I did this and now all my contacts and notes have not been restored!
    During the update, the phone was backed up and, after the update, there were messages saying that Contacts, Notes etc were being restored but when I opened my Contacts, it was empty!
    I've tried selecting the "Restore" button and it went through the restore process and again said it was restoring my contacts - but they are still empty!
    Can't believe iTunes would not have backed up my Contacts before wiping the phone! This seems to have been a fairly major update as it took over an hour to do the update and return (minus my contacts!). I had literally hundreds of contacts and notes on the phone so this will be a nightmare if I don't get them back
    Anybody know how I can recover my Contacts and Notes?

    The software update process does not touch any user data or settings. Fact is, merely updating your software should not have deleted your contacts. Something else is going on here. First of all, the only signed firmware available for your phone is iOS 4.3. So, how were you able to update to iOS 4.2.1, since that is no longer available from Apple? First thing done when you update software is an iPhone backup. Included in that backup are your contacts. Connect your phone, iTunes running, DO NOT SYNC, right-click your phone in the left device pane & select "Restore from Backup". Select the backup made when you started to update your phone. Note: this will also install iOS 4.3 on your phone.

    You don't have to post the same question at one minute intervals.  Somebody will answer it, but perhaps not in 60 seconds.

  • My Contacts File in Applications has lost all name and addresses - how can I retrieve them?

    Out of the blue my Contacts File in Applications has lost all my names and addresses.  Is there any way I can retrieve them?  On my back-up systems they don't appear either.  Panic!

    Hello again
    Alothogh I could not find help on any of the Communities (that I could acyually understand) - I haven't a clue what I have just done but ALL my addresses have now shown up in Contacts.  Wish I knew what I had 'clicked" to achieve this - but as I have been "clicking" just about everything in sight - I am not sure what did the magic trick.
    Maybe, although I have answered my own query, someone could perhaps tell me what may have happened?  I THINK it was something to do with iCloud --- which is something I don't understand AT ALL!
    Cheers,  Lecia

  • HT1766 I lost all my contacts on my iPhone 4S.  When I connected to iTunes it automatically synced, so now the backup has no contacts either.  How do I restore to a previous backup?

    Do you have your contacts on your computer?  You could sync those over: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386

  • HT204053 My husband went to upHdate his phone this morning and when he did he lost all his contacts how can he get them back

    My husband went to update his phone this morning and when he did he lost all his contacts how can he get them back

    Thanks, but I checked iCloud and it has none of them.
    If it backed up to my laptop, that died and I just got the new computer. The one that's crashed won't even boot, so there's no way to even tell if it was syncing the contacts along with all the phone photos. Literally happened at the same time - it was because I had the new computer that I was finally able to pull the photos off the phone and make room for the upgrade. It had refused to upgrade for lack of space for some time.
    I had thought it was set to sync to iCloud but it vanished from BOTH my phone and the cloud. That's why I'm so angry about it.

  • I see there is another ios update. I have an iPhone 4S. The last time I updated the ios I lost all my contacts, as I had not been using the iCloud as a backup. I am now apprehensive about the latest update. How can I determine if contacts are backed up?

    You should never lose contacts under any circumstances.
    Although contacts are included with the iPhone's backup, contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer where such important data should be available with or without an iPhone or any cell phone. Not a good idea to depend on a cell phone for such important data which can be lost or stolen or damaged beyond repair.
    In addition, there are a number of free email accounts that support syncing contacts over the air including an iCloud account, Gmail, Yahoo, and Hotmail.
    If you are not syncing contacts over the air with an iCloud account and not backing up your iPhone wirelessly with your iCloud account, your iPhone's backup is being updated by iTunes on your computer which is updated as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
    With Windoze, contacts can be synced with Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 along with syncing calendar events, notes, and reminders, or with the address book app used by Outlook Express and by Windows Mail called Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only. With a Mac, contacts can be synced with the Address Book app. This is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    If the supported address book app on your computer is not used and has no contacts available, before the first sync for this data enter one contact in the supported address book app on your computer. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select.

    You'll need to provide more information about what has happened.

    If you have no backups, and data has been lost, then it's lost forever. The rest of your data will inevitably follow if you don't back up.

  • I have lost all my contacts after changing my icloud account name ...... please help

    can anybody please help ?? i have lost all my contacts after changing my i cloud name, i had to delete the old one and now i have lost all contacts ???

    Well there is a warning. However it is designed that your computer is the MAIN place for your contacts. The concept of syncing is that the phone gets "copies" of your real data (your phone is not the primary source, your computer is).
    So if your computers address book you sync with has no contacts, then it will erase contacts on your phone because you have no contacts (dumb yes, but that is how it goes).
    It warns when there will be major changes to your primary contacts (your address book on computer).
    Now if you had at least 1 contact on your computer, it would of "merged" them (thus bringing over what is on the phone and bringing that one over to the phone).
    The assumption is when you opt to sync contacts, that you have contacts on the computer you are syncing with and thus your primary place for contacts you maintain.
