Help! I am unable to get my contacts off my 4s

My 4s has no wifi, and after taking it to verison and apple, no one could transfer my content.   When I went to apple they said I needed to upload my work email to my 5c and it would tranfer everything (contacts, apps, etc.) I have done this and it has not worked thus far... Help! I have tried backing it up to itunes, but my computer won't support the latest version, which is required for the 5c.  I have tried turning the contact feature off in all my email and icloud accounts (although not at the same time) and that hasn't worked either.  I have re-started the phone as well, no luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!

I don't know how many contacts you have, but if it is a reasonable # maybe you can enter all of them into icloud and have them sync to your device going forward.

  • I just restored my phone, however I have to sign into icloud and the phone is set to the previous owner's email and password. I am unable to get in contact with them. What can I do?

    Hello codyfromseminole,
    After reviewing your post, I believe your device is under Activaltion Lock. The following article will provide you with more information about the feature:
    iCloud: Activation Lock
    With iOS 7 or later, Find My iPhone includes a feature called Activation Lock, which is turned on automatically when you set up Find My iPhone. Activation Lock makes it harder for anyone to use or sell your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch if it’s ever lost or stolen. 
    With Activation Lock, your Apple ID and password are required before anyone can:
    Turn off Find My iPhone on your device
    Sign out of iCloud on your device
    Erase and reactivate your device
    Important:    Make sure to remember your Apple ID and password, and that your password is unique and secure—someone else shouldn’t be able to guess it. For more information, see the Apple Support article Security and your Apple ID. 
    If you want to give away or sell your device, be sure to erase your content and settings (in Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings). When you erase your content, Find My iPhone and Activation Lock are also turned off. 
    If you no longer have the device, follow the instructions to remove a device you no longer have. For more information, see the Apple Support article What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. 
    For more information about Activation Lock, see the Apple Support article Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    BobbyD

    See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4147.  If these methods don't remove them there are apps that will, such as My Contacts Backup Pro.

    You'd have to think through this, but it seems like if you are using Outlook, and the items vanished from the Outlook client as well as the server,that you could re-populate Outlook using iTunes.

  • How do i get the contacts off my itunes that belonged to my old iphone onto my new iphone? Help :(

    I hope someone can help me, my old iphone is no longer working and i have gotten a new one. Problem is that i dont know how to get all my contacts off my itunes and onto my new iphone. I always thought i was doing the right thing by backing up all the time Help!!!!

    When you say iTunes, what exactly - Just a back up or were you syncing them to Outlook/Address Book app?
    If it's a backup then you can only do a full restore to get them back (that's the point of a backup!). If you were syncing them (different to a back up) to Outlook (windows)/Address Book (Mac) then it's just a case of setting the sync back up on the new phone in iTunes.
    I suspect you did a back up from reading your post though..

  • My hard drive crashed on my macbook pro and I had a new one installed and they were unable to get my pictures off of it. Is there anyone who could help? I'm going to lose all my memories of my kids! I got my old hard drive

    My hard drive crashed on my macbook pro so i had a new one installed and they couldn't get my pictures off. I dont want to lose all my memories! They gave me back my old hard drive. Is there anyone that could help me?

    I think how you understand the value of having backups. All you can do is:
    General File Recovery
    If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten by using recovery software such as MAC Data Recovery, Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro.  Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive.  Two free alternatives are Disk Drill and TestDisk.  Look for them and demos at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads. Recovery software usually provide trial versions that enable you to determine if the software would help before actually paying for it. Beyond this or if the drive has completely failed, then you would need to send the drive to a recovery service which is very expensive.
    The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.
    Also visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on Data Recovery.
    You will need an external enclosure for the old drive so you can connect it to the computer in order to try the recovery software before you buy it. But if they don't work then you will need to send the drive to a recovery service such as Drive Savers.

  • How do I get my contacts off my old phone onto my new?

    Just got a new iphone 5 and I cant get my contacts onto the phone. I did it, but somehow they all got erased. waaaah!!!

    Where are your contacts normally stored?  Yahoo?  GMail?  Outlook?  Or, were they only on your iPhone? (a bad practice)

  • I had to replace the hardrive on my laptop. I have over 2000 photos in an album on my iPod Touch but I am unable to get the pictures off the iPod and back onto my computer. Suggestions?

    I am in need of assistance with syncing photos on my iPod onto my laptop. Had to replace the hardrive on the laptop and I'm unable to get the photos synced from the iPod.     

    - If the photos were taken by or saved to the iPod just use the computer's camera/image capture software to get them from the iPod.
    - If the photos were synced to the iPod you need a third-party program such as PhoneView of TouchCopy.

  • Help please I can't get my photos off my phone

    My 4s used to show in my computer and I used to be able to get the photos off the device there but now it doesn't show up since the new upgrade.  I have tried to get the computer to recognise the device but it won't but it still syncs and shows in iTunes and charges from my computer. Could it be my virus protection? I can't figure it out it never used to be a problem
    Please help

    I'd suggest installing any available updates for your computer. To ensure the drivers are up to date.

  • How do I get Facebook contacts off of my phone after importing them?

    I have the iPhone 5. I've tried to Google this fix, but the solutions don't work for me. I can go under Groups in the Contacts app and remove the check beside Facebook so that my contacts aren't shown, but is there anyway to erase them completely?

    You go to Settings, scroll down, till you see Facebook. You can switch the contacts off. You won't see your facebook-friends in your contactlist anymore :)

  • I am unable to get small contact photos display while receiving or making calls!!

    I am unable to make out how to get a small display of the photo on the right hand top corner of the phone while receiving or making calls. I always get a larger display which is covered by the phone options. I have tried every possible option
    1. Adding photos in windows contacts and syncing with iphone
    2. Adding photos to my contacts from photos taken from iphone
    3. Adding photos synced from my PC
    None of these options work, can anyone help me to get smaller display of photos while making and receiving calls

    Photos added to your contacts on your computer will appear as thumbnails. Those added directly on your phone will appear full size. So, edit the contacts on your phone & delete the photos that were added directly on your phone.
