    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Simply sync them back.

    My itunes is asking for a kind of pasword while I am trying to backup my phone as it lost my contacts after an update of the software yesterday? As I remember i never set a pasword and even if I have one pas for mos of the things but its not working. Why apple have to set a pasword for me, and why the haven't let the chance to reset the pas if forgoten? If someone have any clue how to fix this please let me know.

    if you cant remember the password of your back-up encryption, you can't back it up
    You will have to restore as a new phone

  • LOST MY CONTACT DURING SOFTWARE UPDATE

    I LOST MY CONTACTS DURING SOFTWARE UPDATE A WEEK AGO , TRIED TO RESTORE FROM MY LAST BACK UP HELD ON MAY 16, BUT FAILED , AM EVEN SURE I'V SELECTED ALL DATA BACKUP FOR ANY OF MY PREVIOUS BACKUP , TRIED TO RESTORE FROM ANY BUT FAILED , TRIED THE GMAIL CONTACTS ALSO FAILED , WONDERING WHERE MY CONTACTS I'VE SAVED FOR MORE THEN 10 YEARS ARE GONE ....AM TOTTALY DISSAPOINTED SINCE AM A BLACKBERRY USER SINCE 5 YEARS ,  ALWAYS SUPPORTED  BLACKBERRY AGAINST IPHONE USERS , ALL MY FREINDS ARE NO MORE USING BLACKBERRY AND SWITCHED TO IPHONE OR SAMSUNG , AM HAVING AN EMPTY BBM LIST NOW , BUT  STILL SUPPORTING AND EVEN BOUGHT THE Z10 FIRST WEEK OF RELEASE , I WOULD UNDERSTAND THAT A TECHNICAL PROBLEM HAPPENED DURING THE SOFTWARE UPDATE , BUT CANT UNDERSTAND THE USELESS BACK UP I'VE ALWAYS DOING ! AND THE WORSE IS THAT LAST SOFTWARE UPDATE TURNED THE Z10 TO A WORSE MOBILE.

    Hum, it is worrying...
    So... your contacts seem to be on:
    Gmail,
    your previous backups.
    -Solutions:
    if all your contacts are on Gmail: copy them manually on your device,
    they are a priori all in your backups: wait that Link won't be in Beta anymore, and then restore.
    P.S.:
    You make backups and don't register your contacts on SIM, is it possible ? Personally, I rarely register contacts on SIM. If there is a malware, it can be charged from the SIM to the Phone, this is why.

  • Lost all contacts when manually adding new ones

    Lost all contacts when manually entering new ones, how do I get them back? This is 2nd time this happened

    Same thing happened to me this evening.  I had 1700 contacts and was editing several contacts adding birthday and anniversay dates.  After entering dates successfully into the second contact, I did a search for a third contact and got "no results".  That's when I noticed that I had no contacts - not a single one.  Tried turning iPad 2 off and then back on - but no joy - zero contacts.  Not even an error message or beep or system reset - contacts just disappeared.  I suspect they are still on the device, but the Contact app link to the contact database file on solid state hard disk becomes corrupted.
    APPLE - This is a HUGE bug that needs to be fixed IMMEDIATELY!
    I have iPad 2 - 64gb - 3G/Verizon with 30 GB free. ios 4.3.3
    I hadiTunes set to sync my Contacts with Google Mail
    Additional info
    - Resyncing with iTunes restored 1752 contacts
    - I had recently used (24 hours earlier) "Dup Remover" app which worked beautifully, I which I have used successfully on my iPhone.  To be clear - running Dup Remover did NOT cause this problem, but I mention as this loss of contacts may occur as a result of a unique set of actions on iPad 2.

  • I bought an iphone 5 from one of my friends and unluckily I had yet lost his contact, I had update this iphone to IOs 7 and now it's be locked at iCloud because there was no password . Actually I dont know what I must do for its. Experts, please help me!

    The friend who sold it to you needed to clear his Apple ID off the phone before he sold it to you. Of course if it wasn't his phone in the first place then he could not do so. He is your friend but you don't know where he is?
    There is nothing that will help you short of getting the password for the Apple ID from your friend. If you cannot obtain that there is no workaround.

  • Iphone5 - lost my contacts when moving from BT Yahoo to BT Mail. I do not back up to iCloud and I did not use my mail account for contacts.  Can anyone help to find and restore my contacts?

    IPhone5. I have lost my contacts when moving from BT Yahoo to BT Mail. I do not backup to iCloud and do not use my mail account to store contacts.  Can anyone help find the contacts on my phone and restore them?

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service like Gmail, iCloud, or an Exchange server.
    Have you failed to use the device as designed?

  • HT4623 My phone lost most of my contacts when I updated to OS6. Should I restore and do it all again to get my contacts back?

    When I updated my iPhone 4S I lost my contacts. I tried syncing it but still no contacts. What to do?

    They will be in whatever program on your computer that you have been syncing.  Just sync them back.

  • I lost all of my contacts when I updated to iOs7. I need help.

    How can I retrieve all of my contacts since I updated to ios7..Need Help!

    What settings were in your iTunes for syncing contacts? Had you made any changes to a section on the computer you were syncing contacts with? Were you using iCloud to sync contacts, or someting like Address Book, or Windows Contacts, or Outlook?
    What "new operating system glytch" are you referring to? I have no trouble with my device and iOS 7.

  • Lost my bookmarks when I updated, this is a real pain

    Lost all my bookmarks when I updated foxfire as you requested, this is creating a real problem.

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Lost some contacts when syncing

    Hi
    I just got an iPhone 4 and i sync everything from my iPhone 3. The problem is that I had 70 contacts on my last iPhone and just 59 was syncing to the new iPhone. When I noticed that, I conected iPhone 3 again to transfer the other contacts to the computer, but it removed some contacts and now I have 59 on Both. Das anyone knows how to recover those contacts that I lost?
    Thank you.

    Welcome to the discussions,
    if you have a backup of you 3G before you lost the contacts, you could restore from that one. But as every backup replaces the old one, it has to be an iphone backup included in your computer backup routine.
    You iphone backup folder is located here:
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    copied from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 , About backups

  • HT4623 I lost my phone numbers and contacts when I updated icloud?  How do I restore?

    How do I restore contacts and phone numbers lost when updating icloud?

    iCloud should not have any effect on the programs you mentioned, did you mean that you upgraded to Mountain Lion or Lion in order to get iCloud?
    Are you seeing any error messages, if yes, what are they?

  • Lost all contacts when updating software

    Hey I just updated to v4.6 on my Bold and now I can't find any of my contacts...calendar and outlook info still there but all of my contacts were lost...HELP!

    Hi and Welcome!
    Depending on how you did the update, it may have created, on your PC, a backup file. If you did the update via USB tether on your PC (e.g., not OTA), then search your hard drive for a file with an ipd extension (*.ipd). Inspect the results (date/time of the file) and then choose one to use in the restore. Then, launch the DTM software and conduct a selective restore:

    If you updated OTA or skipped the desktop backup during the update, then I am sorry for your loss, but there's nothing to be done.
    Best.

  • II lost all my contacts when I updated

    I just updated my iphone as well as added icloud and I have LOST ALL MY CONTACTS.  Does anyone know how to restore?

    My contacts are back.  Now when I go to 'messages' and open that, all my im's are there but they are by number and not by the names they used to be.  Do you know how to restore the names to what is was previously or do I need to go through each one and name it again?
