HT204150 half of my contacts just dissapeared, and I can't get them back

Half of my contacts have dissappeared leaving only the first 75 contacts.  How do I get them back?

Log into icloud.com with a computer's browser and check the contacts page.  If they are gone, then they're gone.  If still there, then you need to be sure your device is logged into icloud using the right ID.
If they are gone, you can try performing a restore from a backup of your device.  While there has been debate as to whether a backup to icloud includes contacts (since they are supposed to be on icloud anyhow), so the backup may not contain the contacts - especially a recent backup (this depends on how long the contacts were deleted).
If contacts are still on the computer, then you can try syncing them to icloud (this would only be the case if the computer was not connected to icloud, since otherwise it would have synced by now and lost the contacts).

  • All my windows live messenger contact have disappeared of windows messenger and appeared in my phone contact list on my curve 9360, Why, and how can I get them back where they should be?

    I went onto windows live messenger today and all my contacts have disappeared from it, but I also noticed that they had somehow now appeared in my curve 9360 phone contacts. How did this happen, and how can I get them back into windows live messenger and out of my phone contacts on my phone? This is driving me crazy, can anybody help please?
    My phone is the curve 9360, OS is 7.0.0 bundle 2259 And it was purchased Easter Monday
    Thanks.

    Thanks, but I checked iCloud and it has none of them.
    If it backed up to my laptop, that died and I just got the new computer. The one that's crashed won't even boot, so there's no way to even tell if it was syncing the contacts along with all the phone photos. Literally happened at the same time - it was because I had the new computer that I was finally able to pull the photos off the phone and make room for the upgrade. It had refused to upgrade for lack of space for some time.
    I had thought it was set to sync to iCloud but it vanished from BOTH my phone and the cloud. That's why I'm so angry about it.

    If you have failed to make sure that any apps purchased on the iphone were transferred to your computer before updating, then you will have to redownload.
    Open itunes store, click Purchased, under Quick Links.

    Ive just updated my iPhone4 to the IOS5 software and i have lost all my apps? why? and how can i get them back?

    When an iPhone updates, it wipes the whole device clean and then reinstalls the software and then the backup. Obviously you didn't create/couldn't create a backup either via iCloud or iTunes. You can get your apps back when you go to App Store>Updates>Purchased and download the apps you want.

  • I just bought a movie and a season of childrens cartoons they are now gone off my ipad. Where are they and how can I get them back?

    I just bought a movie and a season of childrens cartoons they are now gone off my ipad. Where are they and how can I get them back?

    Did you download them direct to your IPad or to your computer. If so unless you have synced your iPad with your computer since you downloaded they are still on your Ipad unless you deleted them or if they were rentals the time ran out.
    To check on your iPad launch the iPod APP on your Ipad  if a movie listing does not show  then click on the iPad button under your library list column and it should then show your movies etc
    Or launch the Video App and look for them there
    if you have downloaded them on your computer they will show up in iTunes the cartoons i suspect will show under TV and the Movie under Movies.
    A rented item expires 30 days after you rent it or 24 hours after you begin playing it, whichever comes first. Expired rentals are deleted automatically. After you transfer a rental to your iPad etc, it is removed from your iTunes library.
    Outright puchases are obviously yours to keep.
    Hope this helps

    If you were not syncing and backing up your phone to either iTunes or iCloud, then they are gone. There is no "undo".

  • All the images in my Speed Dial thumbnails have disappeared and I can't get them back.

    All the images in my Speed Dial thumbnails have disappeared and I can't get them back. When I check the settings all the thumbnails have the site shown in the details so should be showing the site in the thumbnail, but they're just blank. I uninstalled Speed Dial and installed it again, but to no avail. Something is stopping the image appearing but don't know what. I paused blocking on Ghostery, but that makes no difference. Any suggestions would be welcome!

  • My Canvas and Timeline are gone and I can't get them back

    Hey everyone.
    I've been using a new HD camera and i have had to change a billion settings on FCP. Now that I am no longer using HD it was time to go back to the way they were, but I must have done something wrong. My canvas and timeline are gone and I can't get them back. I tried going to window and just pulling them up but I can't click on the canvas and timeline buttons...
    Please help!!! I am fairly new at final cut pro and I need help. I have a film festival deadline approaching and only hope that some kind person out there can help!!

    Trash your FCP preferences. This will reset FCP to it's defaults.
    Close Final Cut Pro and open a Finder window.
    Click on your user name in the side bar.
    Open the following sub folders Library, Preferences, Final Cut Pro User Data.
    Place the following files in the Trash:
    Final Cut Pro 6.0 Prefs, Final Cut Pro Obj Cache, Final Cut Pro Prof Cache.
    Empty the Trash.
    Open Final Cut Pro. You will be asked to choose your working format (Easy Setup) and designate your scatch disks.

  • Apps are disappearing off my iPhone and I can't get them back.

    Hi, apps are disappearing off my iPhone and I can't get them back. Spotify, Shazam, BBC iPlayer and the Maps app have just gone. I have tried to redownload them from the App Store but there isn't the option, cant get them back with iTunes either. Help!

    I wish it was as simple as that. I have tried to redownload them but they are marked as installed.
    I have even gone into iTunes and in the app tab untucked the disappeared apps, synced, then reticked the apps. This is where the strangest thing happens, the app appears on my iPhone, the progress bar goes from zero to the top, then, when the app should be installed, it disappears.
    So far Spotify, BBC iPlayer, the Maps app, iFooty, and probably some apps I'm not aware of are affected.
    Interestingly, the apps have also gone from my wife's iPhone which is on the same Apple I'd, but they haven't gone from my iPad which is also on the same Apple I'd.

  • Songs wiped from ipod and itunes, can i get them back?

    songs wiped from ipod and itunes, can i get them back?

    If they were imported from CDs, and you had no other backup of them on your system or another drive, you'll need to reimport them from CDs again.
    For music purchased from the iTunes, you can redownload each track at no cost via iCloud.  See this article for more details.

  • Working alternating with iPhoto and FCE tgrying to import pictures from iPhoto into FCE suddenly all my 22300 pictures disappeared leaving empty frames. Does somebody know where the pictures could have gone and how can I get them back into iPhoto? Lothar

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • My projects icons turned to orange in Aperture? I must have pressed a button without noticing it. What does that mean, and how can I get them back to normal?

    My projects icons turned to orange in Aperture? I must have pressed a button without noticing it. What does that mean, and how can I get them back to normal?

    My projects icons turned to orange in Aperture?
    Ana Candano, what is your Aperture version? Earlier Aperture versions - until Aperture 3.2.4 had colored icons, Aperture 3.3 and later are gray in gray. Do you have two versions of Aperture installed?
    When you post back, list your version of MacOS X and the versions of any Aperture.app you can find with Spotlight on your Mac.
    Frank, the thread you pointed to, was a different question, but probably is related. It would be good to know how it has been resolved.

  • Sir I have lost my all contact from my iPhone 4s, can we get them back

    Dear Sir,
    I have lost my all contact from my iPhone, Can we get them back. If yes then HOW ?

    There are two ways to have photos on the iPhone. First is the camera roll, these are the pictures you have taken with the iPhone camera. The second are pictures that are synced to the iPhone through iTunes from the computer you sync with.
    The pictures in the camera roll are designed to by imported to the computer just like photos taken with any digital camera. They are not designed to be only stored on the iPhone.
    If you imported the pictures to the computer or performed a backup of the iPhone prior to the attempt to upgrade software on the phone,all you need to do is restore from a backup. If you did not create a backup, you can look for the last backup you made if the pictures would have been included in that backup. Unfortunately, in that last case, you will also lose everything you have done since that backup.
    If you have been backing up or syncing with iCloud, the pictures should be there.  If you have not done any of the above, the pictures are lost.
