    How can I restore my CONTACTS from iCloud ??

    You re-sync them by setting up your iCloud account under Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and turning on the 'contact sync', assuming that's what you were syncing them with before.  If you were not syncing them with iCloud (syncing is NOT the same as backing up), then you will have to re-sync them from whatever you were syncing them with.

    how do I restore my contacts from icloud to my iphone 4s

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If you are saying you have deleted them, you can't restore them unless you have a back up and can restore the whole device.

    How can i restore my documents from icloud on my iphone if i have already gone through the setup process??

    Back to the beginning...
    What do you mean by "documents"?  Word or Pages files, spreadsheet files?
    Also, on your device, in Settings>iCloud, you have to have an on/off setting for Docments&Data.  If not what kinds of entries do you have on that screen?

  • How can i restore the contacts that were on my iphone before i synched?

    I have accidentally deleted my entire contact list/address book from my iphone while synching my iphone to the computer. It has been replaced with all contacts from other users that synch to this computer. How can I restore the contacts I created on my phone?

    I pop up in these forums perhaps 3-4 times a year since about 10 years ago. How disappointing. It seems that all the forums here are mainly quite useless. Many have like 900 views and only 3-4 replies; and these replies more often than not, are people sharing the same problem Actual solutions are hard to find. Shouldn't Apple be embarrassed about this and perhaps do something about it. Consider this one as an example. It has
    893 Views  and only4 Replies. Out of these 4 replies opnly 1 is actually a possible answer/solution, which unfortunately (as in many otgher cases) does not provide the solution needed.

  • How can i restore my contact from icloud to iphone4g???

    how can i restore my contect icloud to iphone4g??? help me pls..,

    Missing contacts:
    Here's a test to perform - using a computer's browser, log into icloud.com and go to the Contacts page.  If they are gone, then they are gone (must have done something wrong doing an upgrade or whatever). 
    If they show up, then the problem is that your device is not connecting to the Contacts database on icloud. 
    On the device, go to Settings>icloud.  Be sure icloud is on and using the right ID.  If not, scroll to the bottom of the page and tap Delete Account - this just disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost.  Then log back in using the correct ID.  ALSO - be sure the Contacts are turned on (on the same screen).
    Note:  Contacts are not part of an iCloud backup, since they are part of contacts database on iCloud's servers.   So performing a restore will not help.

    You can import the photos and videos from the camera roll on the iPhone 4s with your computer followed by transferring the imported photos and videos from your computer to the iPhone 5s via the iTunes sync/transfer process.

    Photos and videos in the iPhone's camera roll or included with the iPhone's backup. You can update the backup for your iPhone 4s if not already updated followed by transferring the backup for your for 4S to the iPhone 5s. This will include all data included with the backup for the for 4S.

  • How can I restore my data from a backup with different Phone name?

    I recently had to restore my iphone which erased all the data. I have a backup of that data in iTunes and I want to restore it to the phone. However when I connected the phone to iTunes the first time after resetting everything, I accidently chose to create a new phone instead of restore settings and data from the backup.
    My question is, how can I restore the iPhone from this previous backup? My iPhone is currently called "untitled playlist" and the backup is called "JC's iPhone".
    Thanks,
    Jeremy
    ps. Sorry for posting twice. Nobody responded the first time, probably because I had a poor subject.

    Jeremy,
    If you restore again, you will be prompted to choose a backup or setup as a new phone again. Then you can just choose your old backup.
    Hope this helps,
    Jennifer B.

  • How can I restore my contacts from iCloud, after a full restore, without restoring my purchases?

    Hi everyone! I am having a very poor battery life and I have a lot of apps, which I do believe its time to refresh the system so I thought about restoring my iPhone to a new iPhone, but I don't want to lose my contacts, they're very important; on my computer in the summary section of my iPhone I have the "Backup to this Computer" and not iCloud backup, and I read on apples site that restoring using iCloud will cause all the apps to start installing. I want a completely fresh OS without losing my contacts, how can I attain this? If not, is there a way to restore minimum amount of data rather than the whole OS? Thanks you for the help!

    Please understand two very different uses of "iCloud" that will come up:
    1.  "iCloud" as you use it above is a source of an iPhone backup.  The iCloud backup of an iPhone does not contain contacts.  Here is what it does contain:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2584
    2.  "iCloud" can be used to house (not back up) your coontacts, just as it can be used to house your calendar, notes, etc.
    So, my suggestion is you restore your iPhone as a new iPhone, but first, save your contacts in iCloud.  Once your contacts are saved there, you can retrieve them by simply going to Settings > iCloud and turning on Contacts.

  • How can I restore my contacts from a snow leopard time machine to clean instal of Lion

    I recently did a clean instal of Lion (which was wayyyyy to difficult by the way--why this wasnt an easy option to begin with I do not know and am not happy about).
    In my sleep depravation from the previous problem I accidentally synced my contacts from mobile me to take my computer contacts (deleting all my contacts from my phone and computer).
    Fortunately I have a back up on my time machine from my previously installed Snow Leopard.
    I tried to restore these files, but they seem to not be compatible.
    Steps I took:
    1.) -Opened Address Book in Lion
    -Opened time machine
    notes: i could not go backward in time with lion address book
    2.) -Copied files from time machine address book to desktop
    -completely unable to open files.
    I do not want to use migration assistant because it seems to want to take ALL my files over and frankly thats not what I want to do at all.
    PLEASE HELP!

  • How can I restore deleted emails from iCloud backup?

    I have an Earthlink email account that never synced with the server before, so I went a little crazy deleting a bunch of emails.  It wasn't until I checked my WebMail that I realized it deleted them from the server, too.  I checked with Earthlink and they couldn't do anything for me.  But I had an iCloud backup from yesterday that I tried to restore.  Except the email account keeps syncing with the server and I'm back to where I started.  Is there any way to retrieve this data?  It's gotta still be in the backup, right?
    Thanks,
    Ann

    If they were backed up, you can restore your phone from that previous backup.  If they weren't backed up, you cannot restore them.

  • How can I recover ONLY contacts from a backup in iTunes?

    I had to change my company email in my iPhone 4 mail box, in this change I also brought the contacts from the new exchange group, which I though would only bring the email contacts. It happens that it substituted my phone contacts and now I don't have my friends phone number in the contacts anymore. I have a backup in iTunes ( from 2 months ago) and I would like to bring back ONLY my contacts. As long as I know if I bring back a backup it will overwrite everything, messages, pictures... and I don't want that. Is there a way of solving this not using third party software? I found some third party software that could to do what I need, but in order to recover the contacts I need the paid version. I wonder if apple has a solution for this issue. Thanks for any tip!
