How to recover Contacts without iTune backup?

My father never makes backup for his iphone. However, he accidentally plugged his phone in my computer and sync...now all the contacts in his phone are lost...his phone is iphone 4S...Can anyone help me with this?

The iphone is designed to be synced to your computer regularly.  His contacts should be in whatever program he has chosen to sync.
If he has failed to do this, then they are gone.

  • How to recover Notes without a backup?

    My husband wrote his vows on the iPhone 3. He synced his phone to iTunes, but didn't check the box to backup Notes. The vows are no longer on his phone. Is there anyway recover the vows?

    Use iPhone Data Recovery.
    Choose the recovery mode of to recover from iTunes backup file.
    Then, all your iPhone data will be scanned out and you can choose those you want and recover them and save them on your computer.

    How can I recover my data in notes for iPhone 4s thats without iTune backup.

    Sorry saker, but if you have not backed up your data anywhere, and you told the computer, in essence to clear the data and restore it with your iPod data, then you are pretty much out of luck....

  • How to recover Contacts after MobileMe to iCloud upgrade?

    How to recover Contacts after MobileMe to iCloud upgrade?

    I assume that the regular backups of the contacts and calendar only work on a Mac
    No, you can backup contacts and calendars on a Windows PC. There are many backup options for PCs, but you would've had to set one up. Don't you backup any of the data on your PC?
    Your recommendation is that I restroe my entire iPhone from the last iTunes backup to recover these files?
    That's really your only option with no other backups available. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4946
    There's no guarantee that the iTunes Backup will include all your contacts, as noted in the support article above, you're supposed to maintain backups of the contacts in the contact manager you sync with.

  • How to recover database without archive files

    Hello,
    I've a test database without archive files and I need to know how to recover it without using archive files.
    What is SQL command to recover database wthout archives?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Regards,
    Carles

    There are serveral information missing in this posting and as a support personnel, I would like to find out more when I see postings like this.
    1. This person wants to "Test" his backup and recovery in NOARCHIVELOG mode.
    2. He/She did not say his database had already crashed or had a problem.
    3. He/She did not give any indication the kind of scenario he wants to recover from.
    4. He/She did not mention the state of his database at the time of he posting.
    5. He/She did not mention the Release of his Oracle Server or Platform.
    6. He/She did not mention the type of backup he already has in place (although provided later as Full COLD Backup). How "genuine" is the back?
    7. What actions has already been taken to attempt recovery.
    In my support experience, I normally would go through a list of questions witht he use/client to get the full picture of the current status of the database before I give answers that would worsen situations, especially in a Disaster Recovery sitaution.
    Personaly, I would suggest you have a look at the list above. One of the most important is number 3 (The Recovery Scenario), then number 4, number 6 and 7. Number 7 will determine the situation of your database. So, when you ask for SQL commands to use, there are different commands for different kind of recovery depending on what has gone wrong or what kind of file is damaged (Datafiles, Logfiles, Control Files, one tablespace, one table, entire database gone, etc).

  • HT1937 How to recover an unreadable iTunes card redeemable code?

    How to recover an unreadable iTunes code

    You don't need to enter an iTunes gift code code, you can use your credit card as a payment method instead - iTunes gift cards are not available in all countries, and they are country-specific (you wouldn't be able to use one that was issued in another country).
    If you want to download any content from the store then yes, you will need to use an Apple id (also referred to as iTunes account).
    If you don't have a credit card and iTunes gift cards aren't available in your country (if they are then you can get them from Apple, and possibly supermarkets, electronic shops etc) then there are instructions on this page for how to create a new account without giving a credit card number (which should allow you to download free items) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

  • How to delete tune without iTunes

    Hi,
    I have a problem, I have some old podcast which I like to keep on my harddrive. Then I got the ipod, so I want to store the podcast episodes there. But dragging direct from Finder to ipod show me it copied but didn't appear under podcast. I found out after a few trial and error that I should have added the podcast to iTunes before dragging into ipod. So...
    Good : Finder -> iTunes Podcast -> iPod
    Bad : Finder -> iPod
    So now those files I drag direct from finder into ipod are in the ipod but I can't get rid of them, cause they don't show up in the iTunes list. It shows up in Senuti and iPodDisk, but both don't allow me to delete the song. Now I can't drag those podcast episodes in to ipod from iTunes podcast anymore. It somehow recognise that the file exist on the ipod but wouldn't list it on the podcast.
    So, back to the question, How to delete tune without iTunes?? thanks

    Did you try using the Finder? I'm trying to accomplish similar management tasks. Finder seems far superior to itune management, for podcasts management. This might work-- First quit itunes.
    Use a finder window, not spotlight, search itunes and single-click on any folder by that name. Notice which of these files is in your startup disc (in case you have other bootable drives connected)-- Notice the little icons on the bottom of the Finder window. Double click on "iTunes Music" at the window bottom. A new Finder window should open. I recomend the list mode, selectable at the top left of Finder window. Now you should be able to view all your itune- contents on the computer. It seems these files can be deleted, but one must remeber to empty trash before going further. Unfortunately this approach won't allow adding new folders that will show up in itunes.

  • I lost all calendar events and contacts during iTunes backup

    i lost all calendar events and contacts during iTunes backup
    I think my wife had an old apple ID on the phone and never backs up her device. She lost all contacts and calendar events. any help?

    It would default to whatever account you have set for default. If you were using Exchange, it would sync to that. However, the settings for syncing are set up in iTunes. You would need to check to see what settings were in iTunes for syncing the information. It could be a supported application on the computer, or a cloud service as I said earlier.
    On my personal phone, it will default to my iPhone calendar which I sync with Outlook on my computer. I can select the Exchange account if I want, but my default is what I sync with Outlook.

  • How can I recover deleted photos without iTunes backup, How can I recover deleted photos without iTunes backup

    I am a new user to the ipad  Purchased a mini.  Took prom pictures and promptly deleted them from my Camera Roll.  I have not backed up to iTunes.  Is there a way to recover them from my mini?

    Even if you haven’t backed up your iPad with iTunes manually, iTunes might have backed up it automatically each time you sync your iPad with iTunes. If you have enabled iCloud, every time, your iPad is connected to Wifi and a power source, and the screen is locked, iCloud will automatically backup your photos. So try to restore the deleted photos from iTunes or iCloud backup first if the backups were created before the deletion.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    If you don’t want to restore your iPad with an out-of-date backup, erase all the content and settings on your iPad, and go back to an older iOS version, try to extract your iPad photos from your iTunes or iCloud backup with the iPhone backup extractor.
    Other than restoring from iTunes or iCloud backup, there are still at least 3 other solutions for you to recover deleted photos on iPhone (also works for iPad):
    Extracting from previous iTunes backup;
    Retrieving directly from iPhone;
    Copying from other backups.
