HT1414 how to get contacts synced in itunes

I synced  my contacts on itunes. When I tried to get back my contacts from itunes, I couldnt syn back my contacts on my iphone. Please suggest what steps do i need to take to get back my important contacts.

Itunes does not have any contacts.  it is a music/video mangement program.
The iphone is designed to bw synced to your computer regularly.  Your contatcs would be in whatever prograqm you have chosen to sync ( Outlook or Address Book for example).
If you have failed to set up syncing for your contacts, the they are very likely gone.

    You can sync it to your iPod by:
    To sync to your iPod go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod.... and follow the instructions.
    You can also redownlaod iTunes purchases directly to the iPod by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    connect your ipod to your computer. Then on the top left corner you will see a button that say's ipod click on the ipod image. You will now see summary click on music tab and the add check mark to sync music then click apply.

    how to get Contacts from my google account?

    If you mean you want to get them in iCloud, export the contacts from Google as a vCard (see https://support.google.com/mail/answer/24911?hl=en), then import this to iCloud (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3605).

  • Hey i found an ipod and cant get to sync with itunes what do i do

    hey i found an ipod and cant get to sync with itunes what do i do

    If you mean that you have found "an iPod" - which is not yours, that is, you found it in the street, or in your office/school etc, then you should be handing the iPod into the relevant authority.
    If you found it in the street, hand it in to the local police station.
    If you found it at school, in your office, public library or similar, hand it in to the lost property office for that buiding/organisation.
    After all, if you lost your iPod, wouldn't you ask at the police station etc. and hope that some kind person had handed it in?

  • With iCloud activated on iOS devices, how do I manage syncing with iTunes?

    Guess it's time to take a class at the Apple Store (there's an app for that)
    Two Questions:
    Question 1
    I have turned on iCloud in my iPad and iPhone5 for contacts, calendars, reminders, Safari, Passbook (iPhone only), and Find my iPhone/iPad. 
    I am not using iCloud for backups, email or photo stream because for many reasons I choose to avoid WiFi.In the iPhone User guide (page 57) it says, "if you use iCloud to store your contacts, calendars.....don't also sync them to your device using iTunes."
    When I set up the devices in iTunes, i checked "Automatically sync contacts, calendrs, bnookmarks, notes and email."  Now I want to modify that setup.  However, if I simply plug in the devices to the computer I'm going to get an automatic sync and I understand that can unnecessarily duplicate data.
    How to resolve this?
    Can I just turn OFF the iCloud features on each device, attach the device to the computer, and reconfigure iTunes to stop the auto-sync of the contacts, etc.?  Then after ejecting the device, I turn the iCloud features back ON?
    Question 2
    I've been downloading apps, music, and books in iTunes and then syncing them to my devices.  How does this change with iCloud?
    On each device I've gone into Settings-Store and activated Automatic downloads of Music, Apps, Books.
    Now, when I go to my PC and log in to iTunes to order an app, book, music, do I still have to attach each device to the computer in order to obtain the downloads?
    What about apps I obtain directly from a device?

    For your first issue, without connecting your iPad open iTunes on your computer and go to Preferences and on the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically".  This will disable automatic syncing when you connect your iPad, allowing you to change your settings without syncing.  Next, connect your iPad, click on the name of your iPad on the left side of iTunes and to to the Info tab and uncheck the data you no longer want to sync with iTunes (such as contacts and calendars).  When done making you changes, click Apply at the bottom (this will sync your phone with the new settings).  If you prefer, you can then go back to iTunes preferences and re-enable automatic syncing.
    You will continue to sync your iTunes media such as music and apps with iTunes as you did before.  These are not stored or synced with iCloud (although you can redownload media purchased from the iTuens and app stores in the future if you need to; however, this has nothing to do with your iCloud account).
    If you have enabled automatic downloads for your Apple ID, when you purchase apps, music or books in iTunes using this Apple ID it will automatically be downloaded to your iPad.  If you purchase them on your iPad, they will be automatically added to your iTunes library when you sync your iPad.

  • All contacts gone after deleting old Outlook (exchange) mail account from iphone.  How to get contacts back?

    I deleted an old company mail account and when doing so it deleted all the contacts on the iphone.  How can I get them back?  Can I do a restore where I import ONLY the contacts?  Or does Restore just overwrite everything?
    When I connect my phone with itunes and go to the "Info" tab, it asks me if I want to "Sync Contacts with Outlook" where outlook is a choice from a dropdown menu.  The question I have is what contacts are stored on itunes, if any, and which way it will write them --->  phone to itunes or itunes to phone.  Since my phone contact folder is empty right now, I want to get these back from itunes.  I am hoping those outlook contacts are stored on itunes and can then be downloaded to my phone, but I do not want to do a complete restore as the last time the phone was synced was a long time ago and contacts will be lost.  If the sync writes an empty contacts folder onto itunes then the restore will not even be an option.  Just want to make sure I do not overwrite any contacts that are stored on itunes.
    By the way, icloud for contacts was not on so I do not have that route of recovery.
    Help.

    Exchange contacts exist only on the Exchange server, and are automatically deleted when the account is remove.  This is standard security policy of Exchange accounts.  They would not have been backed up to iCloud in any event.

  • How to get contacts from stolen phone

    my iphone got stolen and when i try to track it on icloud it says its offline and i need to figure out how to get all my contact back but they wont show up on icloud when i go to contacts

    If they aren't showing in iCloud, then you may not have been syncing your contacts to iCloud.  Could you have been syncing with another service?  Like Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail, etc?  If not, I'm sorry.

  • Itunes got delted,songs still on ipod,how to get them back in itunes librar

    my computer crashed so i had to redownload everything, now that i redownloaded itunes, and plugged in my ipod(all songs are still on ipod) how do i get them back into itunes library music section?

    Transferring tracks from an iPod back to iTunes has been covered here a number of times already, but again:
    First, you need to prevent automatic synchronzation with a blank copy of iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer, click "cancel" when iTunes presents the dialog box offering to synchronize to the iPod. Or hold down the Shift and Ctrl keys in Windows. This should stop the iPod from auto synching with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 3 and 25 seconds depending on your computer.
    Then if you're using iTunes 7, you can then copy music that you purchased from the iTunes Store back to iTunes directly (use the Transfer Purchases From iPod command under the iTunes File menu).
    If you're not using iTunes 7 or want to copy back other tracks, the easiest way will be to search VersionTracker for "iPod". You'll find a number of utilities that can transfer your tracks and your playlists from your iPod back to your PC.
    It's also possible to do this manually, but the procedure is rather involved. If you're interested, though, see this thread:

    Hope this helps.

  • HT1414 My Nano will not sync with iTunes.

    Nano will not sync with iTunes.  I get an error to retry or to reinstall.  I've tried most of the troubleshooting suggestions on the website.  I have not reinstalled.  My iPhone and iPad both sync with no issues.  The computer recognizes the Nano.  Is reinstalling my only option?  This started when I tried to update my devices with new music.  I noticed the error the next morning before my run and my Nano all the sudden had no music.  Went to re-sync and I received the error.

    It could be a number of issues, such as the soddering that connects the 30-pin adapter that then connects to your computer could have come loose. However that is unlikely unless you have dropped your device a lot. But for anyone to be of more assistance you will need to provide more information. Such as: does the divice still show up in iTunes? If not then you may have to put it into DUF mode, or you could bring it in to your nearest apple store and see how much help they can be. Caution: once in DUF mode you should be able to restore the device to its orginal settings and the newest software, but you will have to re-sync your libary, redo all of your selections ect. unless you have a local backup on your coumputer which you should be able to acess by [option]-click the restore button and selecting the latest backup, (at least I believe its [option]-click).
    Hope this helps.

  • How I get a refund from iTunes.?

    My iPad ran out of space while I was downloading movies for my daughter. I went to Apple Store and they said there was nothing that they could do because I had already deleted my apps to get more space. How do I get a refund from iTunes for the movies I couldn't actually download? iPad Air  1 iOS 8.1.2

    You should be able to download them on your computer's iTunes by clicking on your id towards the top right of the iTunes screen and then click Purchased on the popup
    As long as the iPad and computer are on the same wifi network and iTunes is open on the computer then you should be able to use home sharing to stream them from the computer to the iPad (so they don't have to be stored on the iPad to view them on it) : Learn more about Home Sharing.
    In terms of a refund, purchases are considered final, but you can try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    Or you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

    How to get my contacts from ipad to iphone?  (I don't want any contacts to come from my PC via icloud, only from the ipad.)

    Well, if both your iPad and iPhone have ios 7 you could AirDrop the contacts. This may seem time consuming if have a lot of contacts as you have to select all the ones you want to transfer. But it is useful if you want transfer only specific contacts and not the whole contact list. Oh, and another thing: your iPad has to be a 4th generation or higher and your iPhone has to be 5th generation or higher.

  • How Does The Playcount Sync Across iTunes and Multiple iPhones/iPods?

    Okay, this is more of a lazy question, because I don't feel like investigating myself...
    So I have an iPhone with all of my music on it. I also have an iTouch with all of my music. Occasionally I will play music on my iPhone, but primarily it's only used as an iPod when I'm driving and can plug it in.
    However, the iTouch is being used more and more to play music on the go.
    Both have the exact same library on them. They also have three smart playlists (which yes, I know they only update when synced with iTunes, since something is goofy with the smart lists) which rely on the playcount.
    I was wondering how the playcount works when synced across the iPhone to and from the iTouch and iTunes.
    Here's what I'm asking....
    I have songs A, B, C and D.
    On the iTouch, I play song A 5 times.
    On the iPhone, I play song B 5 times.
    On BOTH, I play song C 5 times.
    On my computer, I play song D 5 times.
    Now, how are they all going to sync? If I plug the iTouch in first, will it show that I played song A and C 5 times, and iTunes will update song D on the iTouch, but when I plug in the iPhone, it'll show that I didn't play song A, so it'll modify the playlist? Or when I sync the iPhone, will it update song C twice, one for the iTouch, one for the iPhone, so it'll show that I played it 10 times (correct)? Or will it only see that song C was played on one device?
    My main reason is that I want to know how I should expect my smart lists to function when being spread out over three devices...

    Play counts are updated in iTunes when you sync the device, and should then propagate. So, for song A which was played only on the iPod Touch, after those 5 plays if you sync the iPod Touch that will change the iTunes count to 5, then if you sync the iPhone after that, song A will have a play count of 5 for the iPhone's smart playlist (since syncing the iPhone will update the smart playlist at that time).
