HT4623 how do I get my contacts back after upgrading to ios 6 !?!

Got a prompt on iPhone to upgrade to ios 6 this morning. I did so and now all contacts are gone.
Now what? The contacts are priceless and I "have aged" this day. Can anyone help. A tech support person tried to help but got
a couple of error messages in process and contacts are still gone. At wits end.

Re-sync the contacts from the supported application you use on the computer, or from the cloud service that you may be using, i.e. iCloud, Gmail, etc.

    how do I get my contacts back after they've disappeared? the contacts are still stored in my phone I just can't access them through my address book; only through Siri. I've restored my phone & that didn't work so what should I do?

    Re-enter them.
    Once they have been deleted from iCloud they are gone from all devices that sync to that iCloud account.

  • How do I get my contacts back after my phone wiped itself?

    I have a password set on my phone and you get 10 attempts before it locks you out.  My friend decided to take all 10 of those attempts and failed and right after that a white screen came up and said "wiping". I took my battery out and put it back in and the wiping screen came back up and then it turned on like normal.  But all of my contacts and messages are gone, but not my downloaded apps, pictures, ringtones, and stuff like that. How do i get my contacts back if they weren't on my SIM card? and why would my phone wipe itself just because someone failed at the password 10 times?

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    Yes the wipe would delete all personal data settings as a security feature designed in the device.
    Unless you have used the Blackberry desktop software to get a full backup of the device prior to the wipe the data is gone. If you do have the backup file you can restore the data via the desktop manager.
    Thanks,

    " As a security feature, the BlackBerry smartphone is designed to allow a maximum of 10 attempts by the BlackBerry smartphone user to type the correct password. After the tenth attempt, if the correct password has not been typed, all data is erased from the BlackBerry smartphone in order to discourage its theft or misuse."

  • How do i get my contacts back after i seleted them from my phone can i go through icloud??

    plz help me

    Only if you backed up your phone to iCloud (which is different with syncing your contacts with iCloud).  If you have been syncing your phone with iTunes you can restore your phone from your most recent backup, which will replace the data and settings on your phone with those from your backup (losing any more recent information).  To do this, first open iTunes but do not connect your phone.  Then go to iTunes Preferences and check "Prevent...from syncing automatically".  Next, connect your phone to your computer and when it appears on the left sidebar of iTunes right-click on it and select "Transfer Purchases".  When this finishes, right-click again and select Restore from Backup.
    If you haven't been syncing your phone, or backing it up to iCloud, or syncing your contacts with a supported application such as Outlook or mac Address Book, then there is no way to get your contacts back.

  • Noo!!!  How can I get my contacts back after failed update?!

    Tried updating my phone. Got the same error everyone else has. And before some smart aleck asks, no I haven't hacked my phone at all. Just contacts and songs have been added.
    Got the error, and had to restore. Now everything's gone. Pictures, contacts, everything. Please tell me there's a way to get it back. Most of those contacts weren't in my Outlook. And my old phone's been recycled so I can't get the info off that either.
    I love the phone....but I hate the update.

    I'm sorry, I don't mean to sound like a smart-you know what, but what in the world were you thinking of updating the iPhone with no backup? At the very least having your contacts on your desktop program (Outlook) would be a good backup. If I read your post correctly, you manually entered your contact information on your iPhone, you have no copy of that data anywhere else, and completely wiped out your iPhone with a restore.
    If I understood the situation correctly, then no, there is no way to get your contacts back.
    I would highly recommend you enter them on the computer, not the iPhone. Sync them over to the iPhone, making the iPhone the SECOND place where you have all your contacts.

    Okay so I have an iphone 4 and I was doing an upgrade on my computer through apple and after restoration, I've lost all my contacts. How do I get them back?

    Did you do a manual backup first?
    Do you have them backed up on iCloud?
    Are they synced to some outside service such as GMail?

  • How do I get my contacts back after a restore?

    My iPhone froze and I had it restored at the Genius Bar. They fixed the phone however it went back to it's original factory settings erasing all my apps, contacts, everything. The last "backup" I did manually was in January of 2009. When I restored my iPhone from my computer I hastily restored it from this backup then I synced it. I sync and update my iPhone and iTunes very frequently and it always says "backing up iPhone". Is there anyway to get my contacts from a more recent date?

    When you restore the iPhone it should give you the option to also restore the backup that iTunes has been taking.
    Are your contacts not stored on your computer in Outlook? Can you not sync them from there?

  • How do i get my contacts back after updation of the software on iphone 4S

    when i updated my iphone software to ios 6.0 all my contacts got deleted....what do i do?

    Hi there!
    May I confirm whether you used iTunes (while the iphone was plugged into the computer) to perform the update, or if the update was performed "wirelessly" through the device's settings?
    Regardless, your solution should lie within your last backup (typically performed automatically when the phone is "sync'd" with itunes on the computer).

  • How Can I get my contacts back after restore all set

    Hi,
    I need help, I have a blackberry curve 8520 and my all contacts saved in blackberry phone memoey by misake I restore my handset and then I lost my all contacts Is there is any option to get all contants back.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi AyushGab93
    Welcome to BlackBerry Support Forums
    What do you mean by " Restore " hee ? Do you mean you wiped your device ? 
    By default all of our Contacts or Address book is stored in our device memory ! If you have a previous backup of your device or used BlackBerry Protect then you can restore it from there .
    So can you confirm if have any such backups ? If you don't have it then I doubt you'll ever able to recover those.
