Help needed please in restoring all contacts

My wife has recently upgraded to the 4s. I synced her 3gs to her iTunes account and then synced her new 4s to the old 3gs info. Now her contacts have vanished completely from BOTH phones. Cannot find them on either phone nor on her laptop?? Help!!!!

Hard to say... Had she ever synced her 3Gs before? What contact manager was she syncing her contacts to? Are they still there? she was not syncing them to an address book or cloud service, then they are likely gone. If she was, and they are still on the computer, sync them back. If she was and they are no longer on the computer, restore them to the computer from a backup and sync them to her phone.

Have you guys been able to activate your iphone yet? I bought an iphone 4s from eBay and it worked fine, but the previous user had left some data on it, so last night I used the "erased all content and settings" to restore it to factory setting so I can start fresh and restore my backup. But now I'm stuck at the activation screen (I get the same "the activation server is temporarily unavailable") and can't get it to activate, even if I use my old deactivated AT&T sim card (I'm on straighttalk now).
I might try activating it with an active AT&T sim card from my fiancee's phone when she gets home, so I'll let you know how that works outs.
If it's true that the server is down; anyone know when it will be back up again? Thanks in advance.

Help needed please, with Iphone stuck with apple picture and progress bar after software update attempted

Help needed please, everytime I try to update the software version on my iphone it comes up with a message saying it could not be completed and is now frozen with the apple picture and progress bar on it. Do I unplug it and hope the macbook pro sees it again, I also stupidly did not back up before starting the download which I realise I will have to go back to the previous back up. This keeps happening, everytime I do this type of update, I'm starting to think I should just give up on updating my software on the Iphone. I thought it was happening because I was using a window based computer to do the updates, this time I used my Macbook Pro. Please somebody help

Accident email account delete- need help restore all contacts

Help, this morning I accidentially deleted my email account in yahoo, and now ALL my contacts are gone....how do I restore the contacts. I don't have mobile me set up yet.

Were you provided an option to transfer the backup from your Touch to your iPhone that you accepted?
Which supported application on your computer are you syncing contact info with?
With Vista, this can be with Outlook 2003 or 2007, or with the address book used by Windows Mail with Vista - which is the name change for Outlook Express with Vista. The address book is called Windows Contacts I believe and the sync option for contact info is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences.

New Hard drive, can't access certain aspects. Help needed please

Hi everyone.
I have an HP Pavilion dv6-6052ea laptop.
I've been having problems with the hard drive so got a new one installed.
My main issues are since getting it back, I can't access any of the original HP installations etc (I've downloaded all the drivers I know about through HP).
The 2 main things I'm missing are 2 things that came with the laptop.
1: Beats Audio sound system
2: Video Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 6490M (1 GB DDR5)
and I have no idea how to get them back. Can anyone help. Do I need to install specific drivers? I can't find any trace that they exist on my laptop now apart from the stickers on the laptop! Any help is greatly appreciated.
I never had any CD back ups for the laptop. I do have the old HP back up etc saved on a USB but I don't know enough about the folders and files to know what I need to look for. (I still have the old hardrive.)
Again, any help is massively appreciated. Thank you!
Tony

If you used your HP Recovery Media, all factory install drivers and software would have been installed. If you didn't create your HP Recovery Media when you first setup your computer, please contact official HP support in your region / country, via the HP Worldwide Support Portal, to see if HP Recovery Media is available for your computer.
If a generic Windows 7 installation disc was used, you will need to install all HP specific driver for your computer. Please try IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver, Intel High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver, and AMD High-Definition Graphics Driver to resolve your missing drivers issues. Windows 7 64-bit driver for your computer can be found on the HP Pavilion dv6-6052ea Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers page.
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Need directions to erase all contact/calendar/email data so that I can start fresh again

I have a Blackberry 8830 that I want to pass on to another family member, but I need to erase all of my current data including contact/calendar/email. Can someone help in providing the procedure to accomplish this.

You don't want to save anything?
If you do, perform a backup using Desktop Manager of the device before you proceed with the following.
On the BlackBerry > Options > Security > General Settings > press the Menu key > Wipe Handheld and proceed.
This will delete all the settings, preferences, data, messages, contacts, calendar, etc.
It will NOT wipe or delete anything from the Media Card should you have one in the device.

Urgent help needed, can I restore N900 Backup file...

i owned a N900 (now sold out)
before selling i took backup of contacts from backup restore option in application section
now i bought a N8 but i m not able to restore my contacts
1. is there any way to restore them in N8?
2. if not, can i convert them in TEXT or any readable format
urgent help needed
thanks in advance

The backup procedures built into the phone are only designed for restoring to the same phone (ie: in case or data corruption, software update or repair etc.), they can't usually be used to restore to a phone with a different operating system.
You should have backed up with Ovi Suite before selling the N900, that would have been able to restore to the N8.

Help. I hit 'Restore All' in an old Time Machine backup

I fully realize I made a terrible mistake. I had an iphoto library on my imac that i haven't backed up at all. I was playing around with an old time machine backup and i pressed restore all thinking it would warn me that i was going to overwrite my existing library. well, now i have lost a years worth of photos without having backed them up. my question is, is there anyway to retrieve them? the trash holds nothing. there is no backup save my iphone. when i hook that up it only shows 2 photos. hide already imported photos is NOT checked. i imagine i can pull them off. i'm wondering if they will be the full resolution however. i would like to UNDO the restore first if there is a way. if not i guess i have to do it with the iphone which i'm not sure if it had all the photos from my previous library anyways. please advise and i will love you forever.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. About the only recourse is to use a file recovery application like SubrosaSoft FileSalvage. You can run it in demo mode to verify that you can recover the photos you want before you have to pay for it.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

MP3 burning help needed please

Hi,
I'm hoping someone can help me please.
I'm wanting to burn a mp3 cd but with the songs in separate folders so that when i play them in my car i can flick between the albums instead of having to go through all the singles one after another.
Does anyone know of a good mp3 burner that can do this, and where to get it from too.
All and any help in this matter is greatly appreciated
Cheers
Paul

You want them in separate Album folders?
Put the songs into the playlist.
Sort the playlist by Album then burn it as MP3* disc.
This will put the songs into Album folders.
Likewise, if you sort by Artist, songs will be put into Artist/Album/ folders.
* Note that only MP3 files will be burned to the disc. If the files are not already MP3 format, they will be skipped.
If you burn it as a DataCD, it wil work the same except it will copy the files regardless of format. I do this as my CD player will work with both AAC & MP3 formats.

Hi everyone
Programming help needed here. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!
I have been assigned some work for a program called Processing 1.0 availale at http://processing.org/download
I was give the 9 individual programs I needed to make however they were converted to Java files from .pde files. The program is based on Java but only runs .pde files and NOTHING else!
I decompiled the files and got the source code, but it is a slight variation of the original someone made in processing, and needs some tidying to get it to run.
I think the programs are very simple for a programmer, although I AM NOT.

HELP NEEDED PLEASEShouting is a good way ensure you don't get help. Also you should give a meaningful subject.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!I suggest you ask a question after providing enough information to be able to answer it.
Also use CODE tags when posting code as it make the code more readable.
We are more likely to help people who are trying to learn Java rather than someone who might be looking for an easy way out of doing an assignment.
