  • Recover lost contacts and calendar from iPad

    Hi All.
    My dad has an iPad 1 which he uses for work, in particular the contacts and calendar. Earlier this week he said he switched it on and it was as if the iPad had lost all its settings. There was no WiFi to home router and all his contacts and calendar were missing. He re-setup the WiFi but cannot get his missing contacts and calendar back. He had made some major changes and additions since his last sync with the pc and Outlook so a re-sync will not be good enough. Looking around online, others have had the same problem and some people say that the data is still there. There is also mention of a programme called Dr Fone which apparantly scan the iPad and can recover this data. Has anyone tried this or can anyone suggest another way of getting this data back? Its really important.
    Thanks

  • How can I delete all Contact and Calendar entries on my iPhone so I re-sync from my PC

    My Contacts and Calendar are messed-up on my iPhone with literally hundreds of duplicate and erroneous entries.  The data is okay on my PC so I wish to clear the IPhone entries completely and then use Sync again to download from my PC.  How can I clear the iPhone files?

  • How can I sync my contacts and calendars from my iPhone?

    I know it seems like it should be a simple thing to do but I just got my iPad today and was trying to get my contacts and calendar that I have on my iPhone over to the iPad.  I then realized that none of my contacts and calendars that I have created on my phone are on my computer... So I went to iTunes>Devices>Info and checked to sync my calendars and contacts and also made sure the replaceinfo my my iphone with content on this computer was UNchecked... but nothing has shown up in my iCal or Contacts on the computer... I am unsure of what to do!

    I don't mean to sound silly, but after you checked to sync the info, did you do a sync?
    you do have the option to sync between devices via iCloud. however you may wish to back up the info if you can because iCloud ate all my contacts.
    Another more tedious way is to e-mail your contacts, one at a time, and open the e-mail on your iPad and computer and save it.

  • How can I recover my contacts and photos?

    Last night I synced my boyfriends iphone4 to my computer. He had no media so basically he just wanted some music on his phone. Everything went smoothly, music, tones & apps all synced successfully. When I gave him his phone he requested that I update his phone to the newest software (ios6) but when I did that an error occurred and the phone went into "standby" mode and i couldnt even turn it on. I disconnected the phone because i had no idea what i did but then reconnected it because i thought it would come back on.. To make a long story short, when the phone turned back on i got a message saying that I had to restore the phone due to the error. Well, I guess i misunderstood what "restore" meant and it was like i had to start from scratch (apple id & password etc) so basically my question is, why when the phone was done restoring did I lose all his personal info? Contacts, photos, calendar dates etc ALL GONE!! And how can I get them back? Also, he now says that he cant access any of his apps like he used to even though theyre all there. It says his password is incorrect but it's exactly the same as before. what's going on? im lost!!! Can someone please please please help me! Im in big trouble!

  • How can I sync my contacts and calendars through iTunes again?

    Since I upgraded to 2.0.1 I used to sync my iPhone over the air. Now that I'm going abroad I'd like to sync through iTunes again, to avoid high roaming costs. But I can't find a way to tell iTunes to sync calendars and contacts again. It tells me that these data are synced over the air and there is no checkbox or preference setting to change this...

    Is this with a MobileMe account?
    If so, you need to turn off syncing over the air for contact information, calendar events, and bookmarks via your MobileMe account settings on your iPhone.
    Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Select your MobileMe account.
    Turn Contacts, Calendars, and Bookmarks Off.

  • How can I recover Photos, Notes and Calendar folders?

    I have a brand new iPod and have apparently deleted the folders for Photos, Notes and Calendar so I can't sync these items up. (The folders don't appear anymore in iTunes or in Finder). Is there any way I can get those folders back or download them from somewhere?

    In the Finder, open the iPod's icon on the desktop, and choose New Folder from the File menu; create and name new folders until you've recreated all of them.

  • How can I sync email, contacts and calendar between computers and phones without a mobileme account?

    I recently added a macbook pro, ipad and imac to my work accounts and I'd like to be able to sync all of them together.  I believe the POP server that my company is using (small start-up) does not support this.  Basically, if I read email on the laptop, it does not show as read on the imac or my iphone.  If I send a message from one, it does not show up on the other devices.
    I figure there has to be a solution - it's driving me crazy basically having email in 3 different locations and none of it matches.
    Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I have found that syncing my contacts then un-syncing them results in my current contacts retaining all the info and picture from Facebook.  I just don't have the Facebook updates, which I'm happier about anyway.

  • How can I get missing contacts, notes, calendar dates and reminders that are just on my old iphone onto the iCloud for transfer to my new iPhone upgrade?

    Dear wise & wondeful people:
    How can I get missing contacts, notes, calendar dates and reminders that are just on my old iphone onto the iCloud for transfer to my new iPhone upgrade? Half of my contacts, notes, ect. were on my iCloud so have happily moved to my new iPhone but the rest are completely resistant. For example, on my iCloud I have 14 missing contacts starting with the letter A alone, however they are happily viewable on my old iPhone 4S and won't budge over into the iCloud.
    There are also 3 notes missing yet still acessible on my onld iPhone 4S, the list goes on.
    Your help would be most appreciated. Thank you so much.

    I have just updated my phone in icloud and I have lost all my data including my large music collection from itunes. How can I recover my music and phone list?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option which is revealed in the iTunes app on your iOS device by tapping the more button at the bottom of the screen.

  • How can I recover lost purchases. I updated my iphone and did't back up my information and lost everything. Please Help me.

    I updated my iPhone and forgot to backup my information. I need to know how can I recover the apps and the music that I bought.
    Thank you,

    No.
    Any tracking program would have to be installed and activated before the iphone went missing.
    Sorry.

  • How can I retrieve my contacts and pictures after installing iOS6 on my iphone?

    How can I retrieve my contacts and pictures after installing iOS6 on my iphone? Don't call me stupid! I was relying on iCloud to have backed all this up, but turns out it didn't work. Can anyone help me get my photos back - they were of my baby daughter. Also, I've lost all my contacts. Please help.

    Unfortunately no. The only way the phone backs up is if you make it back up. You either connect to iTunes and backup and sync, or you set it up for a wifi sync to iCloud. But you have to setup iCloud to start with. You have learned a hard lesson on how to make sure you import pictures on a regular basis like you would the digital camera. When things happen to the phone, this is the media that is lost the most (pictures in camera roll). After taking a number of pictures, and especially ones you consider important, you should connect the phone to the computer and import them, so there is a backup copy on the computer.
    Contacts are saved in the backup as well, however they are really designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer, or backed up to iCloud or other cloud service. And, the only way to go back in time on the phone is to restore from a backup, but you also have to remember, you would lose everything on the phone that you had done since that backup, so it is a double edged sword.
