How do I TRANSFER CONTACTS (back up contacts) from iPhone 4s to Windows 7

THANK YOU. Sorry for late response. Had to pick someone up.
randers4 - I decided to go with the My Contacts Backup app which produced success (I'll know for sure if I need to use the file)
JoFlo57 - I understand that I could use iCloud but I'm a little on the paranoid side about everybody's data in one location... what with hackers getting into Sony's Playstation accounts and other infamous huge hacking security failures I frankly don't feel safe storing anything on iCloud.

How do I transfer all of my songs from Iphone to itunes as lost everything, some songs are not bought from itunes and have been from borrowed CD's but I really want them in itunes library?

Hello, Please help as I tunes havent got back to me yet!!
A couple of months ago, I lost all of my music/itunes etc as my computer needed a complete restore. When it re-installed itunes there was no songs on it at all and would only let me transfer the purchases made on my iphone from itunes back onto my library. The problem I have is that I want to upgrade my phone to the iphone4 but dont want to lose all of the songs on my iphone, some are downloaded from the itunes, most are from CD's that I still own but there are some great songs that I have put on from borrowed CD's or another download company i.e. hmv music downloads and those are the songs it will not let me transfer into the library on my computer so when I get the new phone, I could just sync and they will all be there.
Please help as I do not want to lose any of my songs
Thank you

for purchases from the iTunes store do this:
connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
for everything else check out this post by Zevoneer.

How can i transfer music files on iPod from iPhone 4?

HT1399 my playlist in itunes disappeared after i synced my iPhone. I still have them all on my ipad how can i transfer them back to itunes from my iPad?

thats it, the question is the title so....

Hello Jesse
You should be able to accomplish this by taking a look at the following articles. The first step before you plug in your iPhone is to turn off the automatic syncing. Then after that go to media on your iPhone and then export the playlist of each one then do an import after you are done. The articles below will assist with these processes. The steps will be similar on both a Mac and on Windows.

How do I transfer all of my contacts from iCloud to Outlook ?

Forgive my ignorance, I am a noob... For my work, I use both an iPhone and a Balckberry, which I sync with Outlook. How do I transfer all of my contacts from my iPhone / iCloud to Microsoft Outlook so that I can put them on my Blackberry as well ? Thank you for your response, even though this may have been covered before.

Back up your Outlook Contacts first. (Select all and drag them to an empty folder).
Back up your iPhone Contacts. (Use an app from App Store like "Multi Edit" or search for "Contacts Backup".
Download and install "iCloud Control Panel for Windows".
Sign in with your Apple ID.
Sync Contacts with Outlook
The iPhone and Outlook Contacts will be MERGE.
After you sync BB with Outlook you will have ALL of your Contacts on both devices and Outlook.

How do i get my back uped contacts

For some reason i cant get any of my contacts past the S's and i was wondering how to get to youre backed up contacts so i can input them onto my phone

That would depend on where they are backed up.
If you are depending on your iPhones backup for your contacts, then a restore of the device from your last backup is the solution. There are other methods, but this is the only official Apple supported method.
If your contacts are synced with an application on your computer or a cloud service, then you need to ensure the missing contacts still exists as they should automatically sync.

HT201272 I have transferred all my purchased tv shows to my pc, how can I transfer it back to my iPad?

I have transferred all my purchased tv shows to my pc, how can I transfer it back to my iPad? On my iPad, under purchased icon, there is nothing shown any more.I tried to sync back from my pc to iPad, it shows it has transferred a copy back to my iPad, but still nothing is on my iPad! Please help if you know how to fix

The first thing you want to check is icloud.com to see if your calendars are there. If not you will need to recover from a back up. More than likely our iPad was baking up to iCloud if you turned on the Back up feature, so you would want to go to settings, then iCloud and click on storage and back up to check there to see when your iPad last backed up to iCloud if it did at all.

is a article on backing up and restoring your device
http://heresthethingblog.com/2012/03/16/restore-icloud-backup-ipad/ shows to to restore your iPad from a iCloud back up. If you are unsure of the steps or you are not able to do either you should contact iCloud support through expresslane.apple.com to see if they can help you get your calendars back.

Wow, you didn't make a backup of your files first?
You shoudl have come here first for help before doing that.

All I can say is make sure you have the same account name on the computer like before, even if you have to create a new user under System Preferences>accounts, then log into your itunes account with that and try to reverse sync from the iPhone like you would normally.
Apple doesn't expect one to go backwards, so they are not all that friendly, you may have to ask around on MacRumors for third party software that can reverse sync from iOS devices.
Good luck

Is there a way to retrieve my contacts back into my 3G iPhone?

Is there a way to retrieve my contacts back into my 3G iPhone?
I was trying to save my contacts by importing my contacts to my sim card by going into settings, mail-contacts and then hit the Import SIM Contacts.
It wiped out ALL of my contacts and I'm freaking out!!
Can anyone please help?
Ps. My contacts was the ONLY data NOT sync'd to my iTunes! =(

You can import TO a SIM. To import, if you look at the button in settings says Import SIM Contacts. That means it is importing, or moving the contacts FROM the SIM to the iPhone. Importing means to take something from the area you are selecting and moving it to the current area, in other words, as others have told you, you imported what was ON the SIM card and since the iPhone does not store ANY information on the SIM, you imported NOTHING to a place that had something.
The way you save and backup contacts on an iPhone is to sync them through iTunes to a supported application on a computer such as Address Book on a Mac, Outlook or Windows Contacts on a Windows machine. If you did not do that prior to the Import attempt, then you will not be able to recover them.

I lost my email in Mail once I upgraded to Maverick. I have them (hundreds of them) on my iPad. How do I transfer them back to the computer Mail program?

I lost all my saved messages in my Mail folders when I switched to Maverick. They are saved on my iPad 3. How do I transfer them back to the computer without emailing each one separately?

The Mail.app preference file (which stores all account information and general Mail.app preferences) is located at Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.mail.plist.
All Mail.app mailboxes and other data is stored in the Mail folder at Home > Library > Mail.
With the Mail.app quit on the new hard drive, place a copy of the Mail folder from the old hard drive at Home > Library on the new drive. If there is an existing Mail folder at Home > Library, this will replace it.
Place a copy of the com.apple.mail.plist file from the old hard drive at Home > Library > Preferences on the new hard drive. If there is an existing com.apple.mail.plist file at Home > Library > Preferences on the new hard drive (and there should be one if you have launched the Mail.app on the new hard drive), this will replace it.
Launch Mail on the new hard drive and the Mail.app should be completely restored or identical to the Mail.app on the old hard drive.
