Help with restoring contacts

Woke up yesterday and was missing MANY phone numbers in my contact list (even my mom's!). Checked google, and they are missing there too (names, addresses and email accounts are still there for most as far as I can tell). Just went on to Backup Assistant and the missing numbers appear to be there I have hit Sync, but only 9 numbers sync up. I have selected all and tried syncing again, still only 9 showing updated. Any suggestions? I have checked the settings in the main menu of contacts and all selections are checked under phone, SIM and Google. Please help! I don't want to mess this up.

It sounds like Backup Assistant is acting funny again.
Since you say that the number appear to listed on the My Verizon Backup Assistant website, I would suggest that you export the contact out of Backup Assistant and import them into your Google account.
Once you have loaded the contacts into Google, they should sync with the rest of your Google contacts onto your phone.
Then you can stop using Backup Assistant altogether.
Also for any new contacts from this point on, you will want to be sure that you save them as Google contacts.

Please help with restoring contacts on Iphone 4S

Still haven't gotten an answer to my question yet. I want to perform a complete restore on my 4S before upgrading to IOS 6. The only data I want transfered over are my contacts. Can I do this without restoring from a backup via Itunes on my PC? Someone told me awhile ago that the only way to get contacts back on your iphone is by restoring from a backup. Please help. Thanks

if you're in the UK try a company called fixmyiphone. I had the same issue - Apple told me it was not repairable. I tried the 'hairdryer trick' (look it up on youtube) but it did not work and finally I found this company - fixed it on the spot for £40. Highly recommend. An iPhone without wifi is called an iBrick.....

Help with restoring Address Book from Time Machine

Problem: I really, really need to retrieve someone's number. I know it'll be in an old version of my Address Book. I can see when I open time Machine that my address book is backed up, but no matter the date I go to, it says the Address Book was last modified in 2012! I know for a fact I've updated (and backed up) the Address Book many times since then.
Whenever I try to restore the Address Book, I do Time Machine > Applications > Address Book > 'restore'. But whenever I do this, the mac refuses to open the restored Address Book because it's 'required by mac OS X'.
I don't understand.
Please, how on earth do I dredge my Address Book from the depths of Time Machine?
Please help!

Hello mb9236,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with restoring a contact from Time Machine.
It sounds like you are trying to restore the Address Book application. The Address Book application is just the application and does not include the content in Address Book.
Instead, you will want to open Address Book and then launch Time Machine and restore your contacts from there. Use the steps below to restore your contacts form a previous date (in step one instead of opening Mail or Finder, be sure you have Address Book open and in focus):
If you use Time Machine to back up your computer, you can easily bring back one or more items you’ve lost, or recover older versions of files you’ve changed.
Open a window for the item you want to restore. For example, if you accidentally deleted a file from your Documents folder, open the Documents folder. If you want to recover an email message, open your inbox in Mail.
If you’re missing an item from the desktop, you don’t need to open a window.
Click the Time Machine icon in the Dock, or open the Time Machine menu in the menu bar and choose Enter Time Machine. If you back up to a Time Capsule or other network disk, a message briefly appears while Time Machine connects your computer to the backup disk.
Use the arrows or the timeline along the right side of your screen to browse through all the snapshots and backups Time Machine created. Gray tick marks on the timeline represent snapshots stored on your internal drive (portable computers only). Pink tick marks represent backups stored on your backup disk.
If you need more information about an item, double-click to preview it. The windows in Time Machine behave just like Finder windows, so you can open folders, click items in the sidebar, and use the search field in the upper-right corner of the window.
When you find the item you want to restore, select it, and then click Restore. You can restore individual items, multiple items, folders, or your entire hard disk. The restored item is returned to its original location. For example, if the item was found in the Documents folder, it is returned to the Documents folder. Time Machine may ask if you want to re-create one or more folders in order to return a restored item to its original location.
If an item you restore has the same name as another item on your computer, you’re asked if you want to keep the current item, the restored item, or both.
You can use Time Machine from within many applications. For example, you can open Address Book and then click the Time Machine icon in the Dock to recover contacts you may have accidentally deleted, or open iPhoto and then click the Time Machine icon in the Dock to view past versions of your iPhoto albums.

I've just came on board from Andriod and need massive help with the Contacts application any one out there willing to help the 'noob'?

I had the folks at the store port over all of my contacts from my old
ratty Andriod phone to my new shiny iPhone.
however all 200+ of my contacts sort of "shook" out,
meaning say John Smith, on my old phone,
had in my contacts the following:
John Smith
123 Main St. Anytown, Anystate USA
555-826-4879 home
555-799-4247 cell
[email protected]
johnsmith@facebook
all nice and neat on my andriod but when it ported over
all that information was just scattered all over my contacts sort of like:
john smith, smith john
john smith 123 main st. etc.
johhn smith home 555 etc.
john smith cell 555 etc.
john smith johnsmith@ etc.
etc.
so for all those 200+ contacts in my phone, I've got a zillion of them now...
so I'd like to get this all back in order before I and Siri explode.
I know nothing, and I know even less about outlook and the sort.
But I do know I am in Dire need of help with this... I figured that eveything else
involving iphones and apple in general was supposed to be cake but it seems
like this is the only thing that isn't cake at all... unless, I'm just a right idiot. (which is possible, hence spelling and grammatical issues).

I believe I've tried to sync it with google, but it didn't seem to take
muchless take my calender. it seems to favor my facebook calender
more over my google calender, but Siri seems to be helping me re-write
it...but that's not the game here, it's the contacts. I've tried to export
the cvp (??) list and import it into my iTunes account. However, It only
doubled my issue because it didn't over write my existing contacts.

Help with multiple contacts with multiple phone numbers

I'm fairly new to the iPhone so thanks in advance for any help with this issue.
I have contact list with records for a lot of people (300+), each with several phone numbers each, home, mobile & work, etc, .I can't seem to find a way to have the iPhone announce the name & number or name & type (home,mobile,work) of the caller from the contact list, my old cell phone could do that easily.
At the moment what I've been doing as a work around for a few (important) people is to create a custom ringtone for that caller & that phone number. Since it also seems there's no way to attach a different ringtones to each number in a single contact record I've had to create multiple contact records for each person, each with a different name/number combination such as "John Doe Work", "John Doe Home" or John Doe Mobile" then assign to it the custom ringtone I created for that name/number.
I need to this so that if I receive a call while I'm driving (or whatever) that I can't answer right then for some reason (often happens), the ringtone I created for that name & number helpfully lets me know who & where their calling from. It's very important to know where someone is calling from, if someone's calling from home then I know I've got some time, but if their calling from work then I need to get back to them quickly.
This is a real pain!, having to make multiple contacts & ringtones for a every person with multiple numbers is a extraordinary waste of time. My old cell phone could do this with no problem but there doesn't seem to be any way to do this with my new iphone. Am I missing something here? I am new to the iPhone so if there’s a solution to this that I’ve missed I'd very much appreciate the assistance.
Thanks in advance.

Need help with PHP contact form

Hi guys,
I've made a PHP contact form for my site and need help with a couple of things:
The form action links an external PHP script (scripts/contact-form-script.php) but is there a way I can have it so the PHP script for the form is contained within the same PHP file as my contact form (contact.php)?
I tried just putting the form code at the top of contact.php but the browser automatically reads the anti-spam re-direct, so maybe that needs revising too?
The second thing is, how can I make the Name, Email and Message fields mandatory? So if a user tries to submit the form and hasn't filled in one of the required fields and clicks submit, contact.php reloads with a message at the top of the form saying something like 'Complete the required fields' and highlights the relevant field with a red border?
Here's the code for contact.php:
<form action="http://www.mydomain.com/scripts/contact-form-script.php" method="post" name="contact" id="contact">
<p><strong>Name:*</strong><br />
<input name="name" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
<p><strong>E-mail:*</strong><br />
<input name="email" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
<p><strong>Telephone:</strong><br />
<input name="telephone" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
<p><strong>Company:</strong><br />
<input name="company" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
<p><strong>Address:</strong><br />
<input name="address1" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
<p><input name="address2" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
<p><strong>Town:</strong><br />
<input name="town" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
<p><strong>County:</strong><br />
<input name="county" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
p><strong>Postcode:</strong><br />
<input name="postcode" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
<p><strong>Message:*</strong><br />
<textarea name="message" cols="55" rows="8" class="ctextField"></textarea></p>
<p><input name="submit" value="SEND MESSAGE" class="submitButton" type="submit" /><div style="visibility:hidden; width:1px; height:1px"><input name="url" type="text" size="45" id="url" /></div></p>
</form>
And this is the PHP I'm using to submit the form data for contact-form-script.php:
<?php
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
$to = "[email protected]";
$subject = "Contact from website";

Icloud help with restoring to an earlier date

I plugged my Iphone 4S into my computer and it said i could update to the new IOS 7 so i did.
When i completed the download my phone had completely lost all pictures, videos ect along with all text message history and so on.
All i had was my contacts.
I therefore tried to restore back to an earlier date but that didnt seem to work.
So i decided to restore my phone as i read that may work, then once done that sign into icloud and get it back that way.
Well once i restored my phone all my itunes was wiped and it now says i have 12.8gb of space when before (when all my stuff was there) i only had 7 or 8.
Therefore i am worried now that EVERYTHING has been truly deleted, even from my itunes and icloud.
Is there any way i can get this back?
I am willing to hear any help possible. Thanks

It sounds as if you either didn't backup to iTunes before updating, or you clicked "Restore iPhone" instead of Update. Either way, you can try to restore again from iCloud (https://support.apple.com/kb/ph12521), and if nessecary choose to Show the older backups available from iCloud. Or learn more about how to keep a backup of your device so this doesn't happen again.

I know how to change the settings in the iTunes view so that I can set it to sync, but when I started the transfer of my iPhone contacts it tells me that 25% of my contacts will change. What does this mean? Does this mean that the contacts on my iPhone will change, or the contacts in my Address Book on my MBP will change?
I'm a bit confused by this. I don't want to lose my address book info (mostly e-mail contacts) and I don't want to contaminate my iPhone contacts with the data in my Address Book.
Thanks for any help.

One alternative would be to set up iCloud and then sync your contacts there. This would keep them on www.iCloud.com (see http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ to set this up). Another would be to sync them with Google by setting up a gmail account as and exchange account, which enables contact and calendar syncing. To do this see http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&topic=14252&answer=138740.

Help with moving contact info using Apple Script in Address Book

Hi folks,
I wonder if someone can help? I imported a few hundred contacts via a Gmail created vCard into my Address Book. The problem is that instead of inserting the email addresses into one of the email fields for each record, it has inserted the email address into the Notes field as follows: "EmailAddress: [email protected]".
I would like help to write an Apple Script that will search my contacts in Address Book, find those with "EmailAddress:" in the notes field, cut the email address that follows it, and pastes it into the Work Email field, carries out the operation for the whole address book and saves the changes.
Can anyone help me write a script for this. I've not used Apple Script before so this will be my first attempt!
Thanks in advance,
ayworld

This should work:
tell application "Contacts"
activate
          set thePeople to every person whose note contains "EmailAddress:"
          set {oldTID, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to {AppleScript's text item delimiters, ":"}
          repeat with thePerson in thePeople
               set nn to thePerson's note
                make new email at end of emails of thePerson with properties {label:"Notes", value:text item 2 of nn}
          end repeat
save
end tell
It will leave the entry in notes and make the label of the new email 'Notes"
Normally when I post an AppleScript like this I tell the user to test it out before using it on the actual data but in this case I don;t know how you'd do that given there is only one Contacts and only one Contacts database.
Just make sure you have a backup just in case. I tried it here on some dummy entries in my Contacts and it worked OK.
Again this totaly relies on the data you presented. The Notes field has to be in the format
EmailAddress:[email protected]
for this to work.
regards

Help with restoring files from back-up to external hard-drive

My laptop died. Took it to Best Buy for evaluation. They had to send it out; but (for $150) were able to back up the laptop's data on an external hard drive.
I have tried to restore my files to the new laptop, but can't figure out how...except to copy them over. Need some help.
The external hard drive included Backup Now EZ. Thought it would be easy, but I am stumped. Tried the "restore" feature, but am missing the boat somewhere...because it didn't work.
Thanks.

That program is made by NTI.

Plz help to restore contacts from ovi sync to my N...

Hello ,
One day i was backup my phone contacts using ovi sync . Unfortunatly Today i format my phone due to hang. My all contacts lost but now i remember i backup on ovi sync. after that i logged to ovi.com site . i m happy to saw all contacts are safe on ovi site . Now big problem is that i m trying to restore to phone always shows this msg " Your device is partially configured. Please complete the configuration by synchronizing the device or remove it to add another "
Main thing is that my phone already configured with sync settings. Plz give any solution . If ovi.com add option in the site to direct download backup to PC then it will be resolve.

- Sign in to contactsui.ovi.com and open link to manage your device. Then select restore your device and confirm (if not already done).
- On phone side open Menu / Applications / Ovi sync / Synchronise (or Menu / Applications / Tools / Ovi sync / Synchronise)
Did it start to sync now? If not remove device from Ovi.com. Then open phone Menu / Apps / Ovi Sync / Options / Unsubscribe Ovi sync and start over with Ovi Sync wizard (Menu / Applications / Ovi sync / Synchronise)
Alternative option is to send sync settings via SMS to phone by adding new device on Ovi.com / Manage your device. Follow step by step instructions on web. After receiving sms on phone, open it with code given on web and save sync settings (open sms message / options / save). Then on phone open Menu / Applications / Ovi sync / Synchronise.

I need help with restoring a previous Firefox session from the other day, that seems to not be opening back up.

I had many tabs opened in my Firefox browser and usually I can close the browser and reopen it, and the tabs are still there.
After restarting my computer, I went to Firefox and it started with a new session, without the option to restore the previous session.
I have a feeling that there is a way to restore these tabs, but in the case that it is not, then I'll just have to accept that.
I was thinking maybe a backup file of the tabs, like how the bookmarks can be backed up.
The tabs were important, so I just wanted to use this as the last resort to see if they can be restored in some way, shape or form.
This is the first time that I'm using this, so I'm hoping that someone can help me with this issue, as I'm sure that I am not the only one that has ever experienced this problem.

You can make a backup copy of the file sessionstore.js in the profile folder.

*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
You can also bookmark all open tabs via the right-click context menu of a tab on the tab bar.
