How do I restore A contact, or ALL my contacts?

I have a basic phone (Samsung Intensity), and Backup Assistant is advertised to work on it.  It appears to be installed correctly on the phone.  I imistakenly deleted an entry in my Contact List and I want to restore either that single contact or just restore all of them - it doesn't matter which, as long as I can get that one back.
Backup Assistant backs up on the schedule that I specify.  But I can't find out how to use Backup Assistant to restore contacts or edit/print the backed-up contacts on www.verizonwireless.com/backupassistant as it says I should be able to do.  There must be a way, but the verizonwireless web site hasn't yet helped me to do it.
Thanks,
Whatcha Callit

    I'm so glad you're using Backup Assistant to make sure you don't lose those important contacts Watchacallit! You can absolutely restore deleted contacts that had previously been backed up in Backup Assistant. If you haven't already discovered how to bring that contact back to life, we have the easy to follow steps at http://bit.ly/13IrSKP for your convenience.
Thank you

  • HT2486 how do I send an email to all my contacts at once

    how do I send an email to all my contacts at once with my macbrook pro

    Open a new message in Mail and enter all your contacts in the 'TO' field. You may want to create a group first with the contacts so you wouldn't have to enter all the names separately. You can also send the message to yourself and BCC everyone; that way the recipient only sees their own email address.
    Thost methods would most likely be appreciated by most recipients since it is not very safe to expost everyone's email address to others, some of whom may be strangers and should not have access to others' email addfress.

  • TS4036 When I restored from backup, not all the contacts were restored

    How to ensure that all the contacts are restored? It seems that only the iPhone users are restored in my phone.
    Thanks

    If you restored for an iTunes backup were the apps in your iTunes library? They have to be for app data and in-app purchases to be restored.

  • I attempted to move my iTunes library so that I can share it with the other accounts on my computer. Now it won't play on any account.  How do I restore locations without losing all my songs etc?

    I was following directions on a mac board on how to share my iTunes library with my kids accounts on my computer. I must have not followed the directions correctly, as now I can not listen to any music on any account including the admin.  I don't remember where I got the instructions or what I did to reverse the things that I moved.  How do I restore my ability to listen to all the music that I have without re-aquiring it? 
    And then how do I get it so that I can share with the other accounts on my computer?
    thanks

    Without knowing what changes you made it's impossible to say what you can do to fix it, but I would suggest checking two things in the Preferences menu:  first, under the Parental Controls, make sure you haven't disabled any of the areas that won't play; second, go into the Sharing area and uncheck the "Share library on my local network" box, then go back to the main library and see if the songs will play.

  • My ipod touch 4th generation is disabled do to incorrect passwords  how do i restore it without loosing all of my stuff on it

    please help me my ipod touch 4th generation is disabled because of my brother trying to guess my password how do i restore it with out loosing all of my stuff

    You need to connect the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes.  You may need to place it in recovery mode. For that see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    You can restore from backup and get you app data back till the time the backup was made.  That is the way it works.  It is a security feature.

    You might want to consider starting a new discussion. Since this one is marked solved, less people are likely to look at it. You can link to this one.
    You create the group in Address Book/Contacts. You shouldn't add contacts without e-mail addresses. In a new e-mail, you enter the group name in the To field.

  • I tried to download latest iphone 3gs and now request I restore will I loose all my contacts and photos, I tried to download latest iphone 3gs and now request I restore will I loose all my contacts and photos

    I have downloaded the latest version of itunes and iphone this evening it now states that I have to restore will I have lost all my contact pics etc??? I have 3GS

    All of your contacts and pics should be on your computer.
    Are they not?
    Why not?  You should be syncing/importing them regularly, particlularly before any update.

  • How do I save email addresses for all my contacts

  • ICloud Deleted a ton of contacts and all my contact groups

    I just updated to 10.7.2 today and turned on iCloud. I synced my contacts and for some reason all my groups are now gone and tons of my contact are gone. I think all the contacts that were on groups have been deleted. Please help.
    I have my address book backed-up on time machine but this is very frustrating. How can I keep this from happening again when I restore my old contact file?
    thanks for the help.

    I was able to fix the problem. Here is what I did:
    Went into terminal and made my Library folder visible (entered:chflags nohidden ~/Library)
    Closed the Address Book Application
    Opened the address book folder under library/application support.
    Entered Time Machine and restored the address book folder from before the 10.7.2 update. Tell it to not replace the post 10.7.2 version of the address book folder.
    Opened Address Book (use the address book application support folder that you restored and make sure the other one is named "AddressBook (original)" or something like that.
    You should see your groups again in address book. Go to File: Export: Address Book Archive. Save it to your desktop. Close the address book app
    Go back to the ApplicationSupport/AddressBook folder and delete the one that you restored and re-name the AddressBook (original) folder to simply Addressbook.
    Open Address book again. Your groups will be missing. Go to File: Import: Then import the Address Book Archive that you just created.
    Lo and behold your groups should be back. You now should have on your groups section of address book a "On My Mac" and a "iCloud" category of groups. To move groups or contact to the cloud, just drag them onto the words "iCloud"
    Hope this helps.

  • Contacts put all my contacts in one

    How come all my contacts all showing up when I just check Contacts. All of the emails show up too.

    I am sorry I do not have a answer for you, just that I had a similar issue also with my Z10
    I was however able to unlink them but not able to have 2 contacts with the same email address without issues.
    It did not really bother me as I only have 23 contacts but with 10,000 you will go insane.
    Well if you do think about changing phones you really have only 2 choices, Android or Windows.
    I would assume iPhone would also give you issues because with 2 contacts with the same email address on my Mac Book Pro........ if Mary was created first and Bill second and I send Bill a email it sends the email to Mary and the email is blank. If I send the email to Mary it is ok.
    I never had this problem on a PC and I do have 5 contacts with the same email address, hats of to Microsoft, and for that and many other reasons I have 3 PC's a 4th on order and 1 Mac and never another.

  • Lost all contacts, pictures, and videos on ios 7, syncing iphone to itunes/icloud how do i restore it back, lost all contacts, pictures, and videos on ios 7, syncing iphone to itunes/icloud how do i restore it back

    I updated itunes 11.1.5 and I accidently restored all my settings back to my old phone that was backed up onto my computer, I lost everything that was set up on my phone, contacts, pictures, videos, emails...etc.. how do I get my old setup back without doing a factory data reset?

    Restore the device again using the most recent backup.
    If there is no more recent backup and the pictures were not copied off the device prior to the original restore, they are gone.  Same goes for videos taken with the device.
    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service, simply sync them back. 
    Any content acquired from iTunes should be on iTunes on the computer, simply sync it back.

  • How can i restore memory after deleting all photos on my iPad 8.1.2

    iPad 4
    8.1.2
    Photos; not iPhoto app
    Under GENERAL I cannot restore my capacity memory after deleting all my photos from the iPad.
    I do not store photos in the Cloud. I do not use Photo Stream
    I have reset my iPad as well as checked in Image Capture for possible photos still there.
    I have also deleted last 30 days of photos.

    In iOS 8.1.2 photos that are deleted from the Camera Roll are moved to the Recently Deleted album. They remain there for 30 days unless you delete them again from that album. The Recently Deleted album was created because so many people complained that they deleted photos and wanted them back. The Recently Deleted album gives people 30 days to change their mind about deleting photos. For the rest of us, it's kind of a pan to have to delete the photos twice to free up the storage space.
    Oh, and there is no longer an iPhoto that works on iOS devices running iOS 8.1.2.
