I was in a pub in Scotland & used their wi-fi. An update offer that looked legit popped up & I ran it. Took several minutes, rebooted & all seemed fine except all my contacts are gone. Any ideas?

Thanks,
I'll give those drivers a try the next time I install Windows 8. However I still don't understand how they would be any different to what is included in Boot Camp Assistant that came with Mountain Lion. Can you or anyone else confirm that they are different?
Can you also confirm that you have the Bluetooth radios in Device Manager and that you can discover Bluetooth devices under Windows.
Last question - do you run more than 1 partition in Windows?

Have you tried toggling contacts off and back on again? Anything trickle in, thereafter?
If not, restore from your iCloud backup. Go to settings/general/reset/ erase all content and settings. When prompted on how to setup the device, select the iCloud backup : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4859
Good luck!

My daughter register her ipod with my account and now all my contacts are gone?

my daughter register her ipod with my account and now all my contacts are gone and I have her contacts in my iphone I need my contacts back!!

If you are sharing the same iCloud account your data will be merged. Then if she deleted your contacts from her device, they would have been deleted from yours too.
The first thing to do is migrate your daughter's iPod to her own iCloud account (you can continue to share the same iTunes ID; it does not need to be the same as the ID you use for iCloud). To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos she wants to keep to her camera roll (unless already there) by opening her my photo stream album, tapping Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create her new account and choose Merge to upload your data.
Once she is on her own account, you may be able to recover your contacts from your iCloud backup by following these steps: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841.

Are your contacts still on your computer? If yes, set one contact up on the phone and sync it, you'll get the option to merge data.
If there are no more contacts on the computer, see if your latest backup still has the info, if you did not sync after you lose the info, they are still part of the backup.

The iphone is designed to be synced to your computer regularly. Your contacts will be in whatever program you have chosen to sync. Just sync them back

Hi stanlaw,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The information below should help you with this.
Associating and verifying email addresses with your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE68
How to verify the primary email address for your Apple ID
When you first create an Apple ID (using your email address) a verification email will be sent to that address. If you sign in to your Apple ID from the link in that email, the email address will be verified as the primary email address for your Apple ID. You can also resend the email verification if the email address is not verified:
1. Sign in to My Apple ID to manage your account information.
2. Click Resend under Primary Email Address.
3. Verify your changes by following the link in the email you will receive from Apple and signing back in to your account.
I hope this information helps ....
Happy Holidays!

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

I have an iPhone 4S and while upgrading to OS 8.3, I noticed that all my contacts are gone. Can I connect to my iMac OS Yosemite 10.10.3 and transfer contacts directly onto my phone?

Hey there denise.ca,
I see that you have a question about one of the functions of USB syncing. To answer your question, yes, you can sync contacts from your computer to your iPhone using USB syncing and iTunes:

Upgrade iPhone to the new OS4 and now all my contacts are gone

I took the new OS4 update and now all my contacts are gone! I tried restoring from a previous backup and they're still not there!
This is very disturbing.
What can one do to restore their contacts (that should have never been deleted in the first place)?

I’ve contacted a friend that works for Mac; He is a bit of a genius. Apparently when you reboot there will be a copy of your backed up phones details from before you installed the new software. I'm currently trying this and just pressing ok to all of the error messages. Looking at the screen on itunes that displays the usage, over time it’s filling up more and more. Maybe also give it a go and see if second time lucky things come back, especially all those contacts. Ill let you know how I go.... I’m definitely considering blackberry after this and I have been an iPhone devotee from the start!! NOT HAPPY JAN

All my contacts are gone from my iPhone

All my contacts are gone. Haven't backed up since before we started vacation. If I do a restore, will I loose photos that I've taken on the trip?

yes,

All my contacts are gone from my iphone and my address book!!

All of a sudden, I synced my iphone with my imac as usual and all my contacts are gone out of the phone and the address book onmy computer. Help! Thanks

Do you not maintain a backup of your important data saved to an external hard drive used for backup purposes only or to CD media?
The Address Book application includes a simple backup database option as does iCal which is simple to restore the entire database from in the event something like this occurs.
Do you have a .Mac account? If so, you can recover all contacts from your .Mac online address book. If not and you don't have a backup of this data available in some fashion, you are in trouble.

Iphone would not back up in itunes. "restored" it and now all my contacts are gone...can I get them back?

while trying to update my version, itunes kept timing out. I successfully updated another phone w/o a problem. After 8 hours of attempting and even trying 2 different computers, I decided to "restore"! My bad!!! Was so frustrated by then I just did it. Now, phone is as if I took it out of the box! Contacts are gone, calendar entries gone etc. Is there any way to get back that info? I checked in outlook, but it appears that none of my back-ups ever "took". Outlook in empty!

The only way you can get back some info is to restore your phone from the most recent backup. Naturally, any data added to the phone since that last backup and current, will be gone.

Synced phone for the first time, and all my contacts are gone. Please help

I had to upgrade the iOS to 5. And all of the contacts are gone. Is there a way to recover them?

How did you get the contacts loaded onto the iPhone in the first place?
If you used iTunes that would imply the "source" of contacts was either on your computer (e.g. Outlook) or perhaps through a one-time upload from an e-mail service like GMail. In either case, your contacts should (might) still be where they were when you originally put them onto your iPhone.
If all your contacts were manually entered into the iPhone, then you're out of luck since they are not backed up, unless you set iCloud up to sync your contacts (in which case they'd still be in iCloud).

The tab that Roaminggnome is talking about is your "Info" tab. As you can see my contacts and calendars on my iPhone are being synced through iCloud.
I also regularly take an export copy of my contacts and save it separately. This doesn't help you now but it may help you on a go-forward basis.
Cheers
