How can I get back contacts that I deleted?

Yesterday I setup my mom's account for icloud so she could have the find my iphone app on her and my brother's account. They both share the same account, so when I set it up all of my mom's contacts went onto my brothers phone. After I deleted her contacts off of his phone, all of her contacts were gone on her phone. Now I'm trying to figure out how to get her contacts back because when I went onto icloud.com the contacts were also gone. I backed up her phone yesterday on icloud when she had her original contacts, but I'm afraid to erase all the content and settings on her phone and rely on the backup. Does the backup for icloud work? Or is there another way to find the contacts without erasing her content on her phone! PLEASE REPLY ASAP! Thanks

While I do believe that it's possible for a program to restore your contacts from an iTunes backup, (inapplicable in your iCloud backup situation) I doubt it can actually do it from the phone, once they are removed from the phone anything claiming to be able to recover them seems suspicious to me.

"print this page" firefox crashed. How can I get back to that page?

Sending my ipod nano in for repair. Lost the page at the end that needed to be printed and brought to a ups store. Now I can't seem to get back to that.
Can I just print out the status page or something? I didn't even get to see what information was really on it.

I did it all online so I haven't contacted tech support yet, but it looks like I might have to for this simple little issue

If they aren't in your camera roll, or photostream album, then you'll need to restore from a back up that has them.

How can I get back images that keynote just decided to lose?

I Was working on a presentation for 2 hours and all of a sudden the pictures disappeared! If they don't come back I can't risk doing that again, it could be the new surface pro instead!

Please provide more information:
What version of Keynote are you using?
Have you tried restoring the Keynote from your back up files?
Did you save the presentations, if so where?
Are you saving to iCloud or the Mac?
Please explain what you mean by:

How can i get the history that was deleted or not recorded on the computer

I want to know how to recover deleted history or activity that had the computer set to never remember the history.

You can't. If you had a backup of the places.sqlite file from before deleting the browsing history, you could restore that file. As far as "never remember my history", nothing is saved or "recorded".

How can I get rid of that annoying white circle in that black square

Since Oct. 7 last I have a 5S. Before had a 4S. About 4S no complaints, so the 5S maybe faster, better cam and so on but what I really hate it that stupid white circle in a black square you can move around on your screen. However when you want to open, for instance <messages> and that white circle is very near, messages will not be opened but a uselless black sub scrn with favorites, Siri, Device, Home. How can I get rid of that or delete or move it, it will no longer be visible on my scrn.

Yes, you are right. I must have done it myself during the first days while exploring the many options after the initial set up was done. On the 4S, I still have, and also running under OS7, it was disabled that's why I thought it was default in the 5S; wrong thinking. Thanks a lot for your great help.

If your contacts aren't on icloud.com when you check from your computer, and they aren't on your phone, you'll have to try restoring your last backup (or recover them from another backup source).

Remove the contacts from 'On My Mac' you don't have duplicates, you are looking at 2 accounts at once.

Unless you had backed up some of your data to iCloud, there's no way to get it back with the exception of previous iTunes purchases which can be redownloaded.

You could check settings > mail contacts and calandars and see if there are any accounts (like icloud gmail yahoo) listed and if they have contacts on. Its possible if contacts were synced to one of these accounts that turning them back on will recover the missing contacts.

If the contacts were stored on icloud, then be sure the device is connected to icloud (Settings>icloud) and also that contacts are turned on (on the same screen in settings).

You don't download iTunes by connecting your phone to iTunes and yes of course, by syncing your phone with your husbands computer, of course you will have lost all your stuff and you will have his.
When you connect to iTunes, you sync.
To get back all your things, then you need to sync your phone to the computer that you used originally to set your phone up - if this is your computer, then connect your phone to that and sync it with iTunes on that and you will get your stuff back, but when you connect to iTunes you sync and don't download.
Ringtones should download automatically to your phone and if not, if you are getting them on your computer, then download them to your computer with your iTunes on and double click to get the MP3 file to open in iTunes and then sync your phone to your computer and you will get the ringtone on your phone.
