HT204150 i deleted some contacts is there a way to get them back?

I deleted some contacts on my iphone 4 is there a way to retrieve them though previous icloud backups? I cannot find how to access any previous icloud backups.

Read this link, it covers how to recover from lost contacts from an icloud backup.

Restore your backup copy, this is what it is for.

If the photos were not backed up with a recent backup, there is NO way to retrieve them.

I deleted a contact and need it back,does anyone know how I can get it back. I'm on iPhone 4 using ios6. Thanks a lot for any answers and tips.

If the contact is no longer on icloud.com you would have to try restoring your contacts from your backup, as explained here: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841.

I set my 3gs up as a new phone and lost all off my contacts is there a way of getting them back?

Well i was told by an apple guy at the store to restore my phone as a new one to remove al bugs. so i did and lost all of my contacts so i am trying to find out if i can find my contacts somewhere on my computer so i can re-enter them.

If you had previously configured to sync Contacts with outlook, google or yahoo contacts, you can do the same to recover your contacts.
Otherwise two options:
Restore from backup. Right click your iPhone under 'Devices' on iTunes left Pane and select 'Restore from Backup'. Pick the old backup date and restore. But then this will bring back your old issue you had on your iPhone.
The other option is to use a third party software to extract info from your backup folder.
iPhone Backup Extractor, you can download a free version with limited capability of a paid Registered version:

Here are locations of your backup folder.
Win7 - C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\Mobile Sync\Backup
Vista - C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Mobile Sync\Backup
Winxp- C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\Mobile Sync\Backup

Welcome to the Apple Community Holly.
To restore from a back up made through iTunes, follow these instructions.
To restore from a back up made through iCloud, try the following:
The difficulty in restoring iCloud data from a back up is that the back up is older than the current version on iCloud and anything that is restored gets removed again when an iCloud sync occurs.
Ensure the device is connected to your local network.
Start the restore from iCloud back up.
Allow the devices settings to restore (watch for the confirmation of completion).
As the apps begin to restore pull the connection to your router WAN port (the one that goes to the telephone point).
Wait for the time out confirmation.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn off contact syncing (keep contacts when prompted).
Reconnect the router to the internet and let the restore process complete.
Delete any iCloud contacts from iCloud.com on a computer.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn on contact syncing (merge contacts when prompted).
May I suggest that you carry out a back up to iTunes before you try anything, that way should things become even worse, you can at least restore back to where you are now.

Contacts are synced with a compatible programme on your computer (Outlook, Windows Contacts, Address book etc) or with a cloud service (iCLoud, Google, Yahoo). Sync your contacts back from wherever you were making the backup of them. If you have not been backing them anywhere, then they are most likely gone.
If you updated the iOS through iTunes and assuming that your photos were present at the time of update and you deleted the photos afterwards; you may try restoring the iPhone from the last backup, provided that you had not synced your iPhone after deleting the photos.

Sorry no as you wipe the current data when you restore from your backup.

You would have to restore your phone from a backup, if that message was included in the backup.

I have an iPod whose contents I want to transfer to a newer Ipod. At some stage I lost the music files from my library. Is there any way to get them back from the older iPod and put them onto the newer one again? I stupidly synced the wrong one.

Have you not got a backup of your content on, for example, external drives ? If not then you could have a look to see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still exist and work : https://discussions.apple.com/message/11014893?messageID=11014893#11014893

I thought I was 100% secure with Icloud but it does not seem the case! Now I have contacts retrieved form my email accounts but nothing from icloud!
Please help!

Well with the contacts, if you had back up assistant or google back up then you may be able to retrieve them.If not then they are gone for good. Withe the message you ae getting about the space, since you cleared everything out and still get that message you might or actually need to do afactory reset thru settings. So make sure the apps you want are saved on your card or just do the reset and redownload the apps
