HT201274 how to restore contacts

I recently noticed all of my contacts were gone. I did nothing. I have an I-Phone 4s. Any ideas on how to get them back?

See...
iTunes will back up the following information

    You should be regularly syncing your contacts to your computer using iTunes, therefore just sync them back to the phone.

    How were they lost?
    Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer and/or there are a number of free email accounts that support syncing contacts and other data over the air - with an Apple iCloud account depending on the iOS version your iPhone is running, Gmail, Yahoo, and Hotmail email accounts.
    Contacts are also included with the iPhone's backup which requires restoring the iPhone from the backup if the backup has not been overwritten since the contacts were lost on the iPhone.

  • How to restore contact info, etc, in Address Book from a backup drive?

    I accidentally deleted the entries (names, contact info, etc) in Address Book. My hard drive is fully backed up on another drive.
    How do I replace the deleted contacts from my backup file? Or, how do I replace the current Address Book with the undamaged one on my backup drive?
    Thanks.

    What kind of backup? If it's a TM backup then open Address Book and select Address Book Help from the Help menu. Search for "restore from time machine." You'll find an article on how to restore entries from a TM backup.
    If this is simply a cloned backup then navigate to the /Home/Library/Application Support/ folder on the backup drive and copy the AddressBook folder to the same location on your hard drive.
    Then navigate to /Home/Library/Preferences/ and copy the com.apple.addressbook.plist and com.apple.addressbook.abd.plist files from the backup to the same location on your hard drive.
    Address Book must not be running.

  • HT4623 How to restore contacts list after upgrading to iOS 7.2

    How do I restore the contacts list I had on my iPhone 4 after upgrading to iOS7.2? The folder is completely empty/ Thanks

    The iphone is designed to be synced to your computer or cloud service regularly.  Your contacts will be in whatever program/service that you have selected to sync.
    If you have failed to sync them to your computer or cloud service, then they are gone.

  • How to restore contacts from backup?

    My husband's contacts on his iPhone 4S somehow magically got deleted - so he claims.  If I plug his iPhone into my Mac how do i restore his contacts?

    I managed to work around this.  Not sure exactly what I did differently, but somehow I got Address Book to display separate "iCloud" and "On My Mac" lists, and then I could drag and drop groups from "On My Mac" to "iCloud".  Left a lot of duplicates, again, but the "Look for Duplicates" menu command cleaned them up.

    To move the folder back you need to access:
    \Users\(your username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    And insert the folder back to it, iTunes will automatically recognise it

    Hi,
    I have been syncing my phone with itunes from 3 days as I have bought a new macbook pro.
    Suddenly yesterday due to some change of settings or I dont know what all my contacts got deleted.
    I tried to restore back up by right clicking the iphone option in itunes but still after that i cant restore my contacts.
    I am really worried and i dont have any back up of my contacts.
    Is there any other way to restore my back up?
    Please get back to me as soon as possible if you have any solution.
    Thanking you,

    Try to backup with your old computer and your old iTunes put your contacts back to your iPhone. Aftervthat you sync with your new computer with right settings.

  • How to restore contact from iPod Touch to iPod Nano in iTunes

    I have all my contacts on my iPod Touch and they are backed up onto my computer.
    I got a iPod Nano so I created a new Library of Playlist I wanted on the Nano.
    Synced the Music fine but I would like to put my Contacts and possibly Apps onto the Nano.
    Is there a way to do this?
    If not I do also see that it tells me to add contacts within iTunes but I'm not sure how to do that.
    I have iTunes 11.0.1
    Thanks,
    Debbie

    You don't.
    As far as know this is not a feature of the ipod nano.
