How can I get my phone contacts back from iCloud?

For an unknown reason, all my phone contacts got deleted. I have a back up in my Mac Book Pro but haven't found the way to get them my iPhone back. How can I achive so?

If they are on your MacBook, open contact on your Mac, click on All Contacts on the left-hand side, click on a single contact to the right and press Command-A to select them all (they should all be highlighted).  Then go to File>Export>Export vCard and save the file on your desktop.  Then email this file to yourself, open it on your iPhone and tap the attachment to import them back to your phone and to iCloud.
If you have multiple accounts on your phone you might want to first go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section) and be sure this is set to iCloud.  This will ensure that the contacts will be added to iCloud when you import them.

    My iPhone is stolen. How can I get my address book back from the iCloud? I should have synchronized my iPad address book. However, I loss some recent contacts from iPhone.

    I use my iPad to get the address book backed up by iCloud from my iPhone. However, I cannot see the recent new contacts from my iPad. Is there anyway to check the iCloud server to see if my address book backup from my iPhone is still there?

    If you don't have a backup, well you can't. Start storing your contacts in a supported contact application on your computer & you won't have this problem in the future. And, backup your computer.

  • HT201272 How can I get my old ringtones back from the iTunes Store?

    How can I get my ringtones back?

    Ringtones are a one-time only download from the store. Do you have copies of them in the Tones part of your computer's iTunes library and/or on your backup of your downloads ? If not, and if they are still in your country's store, then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a redownload : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • I accidentally selected all of my contacts in my address book and then clicked "Merge cards." I now have one contact in my phone and address book that has a million phone numbers attached to it. Whoops! How can I get my separate contacts back?

    This is terrible. I need all of these contacts back. Is there a way to revert to a previous state on my phone/icloud/computer?

    IF you have backups to icloud turned on, you can reset the device and do a restore.  This will first delete all on the device and restore whatever you have on the backup.  IF you have backups to itunes that are recent, then you can do the same thing but restore from the itunes backup.
    Otherwise, if you also have the data on a computer, then if it's no longer there, you can perform a restore of the contacts file/folder from Time Machine (for macs) or from your PC backup.
    If none of the above, then without backups, I'm afraid you've lost the original data.

  • I accidentally deleted my backup from icloud on my iphone and now when I go into icloud in the settings it doesn't give me the option to backup my iphone to my icloud account anymore? How can I get my phone to backup to icloud again?

    I accidentally deleted the latest backup for my iphone 6 on icloud like a week ago and now I can't backup my phone to icloud at all.  When I go into settings, then into icloud, and then into manage my storage it does not give me the option to backup my iphone to my icloud account anymore. How do I get the "backup my iphone now" option in the manage my storage part of the icloud setting? Thanks.

    Hey guys I figured out how to solve the issue.
    You need to go to settings>general>restrictions.
    Turn off restrictions and your iCloud and twitter will start working.
    Enjoy.

  • TS4036 How do I get my ringtones & purchases back from Icloud??

    I don't know how to use Icloud at all, but I went in to At&t and they got me a different iphone then said they backed up all my ringtones & purchases to icloud, how do I get it back? When I go to icloud.com I can't even sign in anywhere... Help!

    If the AT&T store backed up your old phone to iCloud, you have to restore your phone to your backup to recover data such as messages, email accounts, camera roll photos, app data and ringtones, as well as your settings.  This has to be done during the initial phone setup.  If your phone is already set up, you'll have to go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  Then go back through the setup screens on the phone again, and when given the option choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below).  Be sure you phone is connected to wifi and your charger as this may take some time to finish.

  • How can I get rid of a message from iCloud?

    On my iPhone 5 a white box appears saying "Sign in to iCloud". When I tap Cancel the box keeps returning and I can't use my iPhone. I did a system reset and that did not do any good. How can I stop this message from reappearing?

    How can I get the phone numbers in contacts to appear with dashes between the first 3 numbers, the next 3 numbers, and the last 4 numbers?  Until very recently
    it did so.  Contacts on my macbook pro does show up this way.  I do have a mobile me account and in the past syncing was no problem.  What setting has changed?

    The phone number format as well as the date language and format and the time format are controlled by the Region Format setting. Go to Settings > General >International > Region Format.  When you change a region format, you can go back one page (to International) and see an example of the date/time/phone number format that your selected region format will produce.
