HT4859 Is there any way to restore the contacts from the iCloud onto my existing phone?

I had all my contacts disappear this afternoon.  Is there any way to restore the contacts from the iCloud onto my existing phone?  This article makes it seem as if the iCloud information is only accessible upon setup of a new devise.

    I was trying to save my contacts by importing my contacts to my sim card by going into settings, mail-contacts and then hit the Import SIM Contacts.
    It wiped out ALL of my contacts and I'm freaking out!!
    Can anyone please help?

    Same answer as the last time you asked:

  • My iPhone 5s is stolen and I want to restore iPhone photos from iCloud. I have use iCloud to backup the iPhone photos. Is there any way to restore my photos from iCloud to mac?

    My iPhone 5s is stolen and I want to restore iPhone photos from iCloud. I have use iCloud to backup the iPhone photos. Is there any way to restore my photos from iCloud to mac?

    The backup of your iPod Touch would include your camera roll photos.  Restoring the backup to another iPod Touch or iPhone would recover them.  Photos will not be restored by restoring the backup to an iPad.
    Note: Apple deletes iCloud backups after 180 days of inactivity so be sure to do this before then.

    I upgraded to IOS5 and have lost my contacts and other app profiles - is there any way to get them back from the backup taken before the IOS5 process started?

    Thanks but have tried that - When I try to restore I get a -50 error and into a loop of taking another back up.  I took a copy of the back up before the IOS upgrade and have it stored on my desk top but I cannot get Itunes to restore to that back up
    Any ideas how I can do this?

    Yes, if you have iCloud set up on your phone and computer, then reminders will be synced through iCal.

  • 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.

    I have an iPod whose contents I want to transfer to a newer Ipod.  At some stage when I thought I was syncing correctly I wasn't so 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? 

    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

  • Is there any way to execute process chain from the portal?

    Hello,
    Is there any way to execute process chain from the portal? I dont want to link process chain with any of report. I want to have a button in some of portal folders. User presses the button and it executes the process chain.
    I was thinking about to create a fake planning cube, aggregation level and planning function. I call FM within the Fox planning function that runs the process chain. But it should be done within the report.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks a lot in advance!

    Hi.
    I want to have a button in some of portal folders
    You mean that you want to use some link in EP ?

  • I have an 06' macbook and I just bought an 07' macbook.. The 06' has os x 10.6 but the 07' has 10.5.. I no longer have the disk for snow leopard. Is there ANY way to get snow leopard from the old computer to the other without having to buy it again?

    I have an 06' macbook and I just bought an 07' macbook.. The 06' has os x 10.6 but the 07' has 10.5.. I no longer have the disk for snow leopard. Is there ANY way to get snow leopard from the old computer to the other without having to buy it again?

    Technical issues aside, there's still a legal issue.
    Neither 2006 nor 2007 MacBooks shipped with Snow Leopard 'factory' installed. OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard became available in September 2009. So you purchased and installed a Snow Leopard upgrade disc on the 2007 system at some point.
    If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a single-user copy, then legally, you need to purchase another one for the second computer. If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a Family Pack 5-user license, then you're good to go.

    If you have an active MobileMe account, Apple was giving away a single-user upgrade copy of Snow Leopard for a limited time, and you should have received an email with a link, or been offered the opportunity when you signed in to your MobileMe account on the web:
    http://www.macrumors.com/2012/04/24/free-snow-leopard-discs-for-mobileme-users-n ow-arriving/
    Worst case, single-user Snow Leopard upgrade discs are $29 retail, direct from Apple. I'd hate to have two computers and no OS installation CD's for whatever version I'm currently using.

  • Is there any way to transfer my contacts from my Droid to my new I Phone 5C ?

    Is there any way to transfer my contacts from my Droid to my new I Phone 5C?

    It depends on how your conctacts are stored.
    Assuming your Droid has an associated Gmail account and your contacts are stored in that gmail account, you can set it up on the iPhone through Settings->Mail Contacts & Calendars->Add Account->Other->Add CardDav Account
    Enter your Gmail settings there. and the iPhone will download your contacts to the Contacts App. They will remain synced.
    If they are not on Gmail, you would need to tell us how they are stored so we can offer a more precise suggestion.

  • Is there any way to access my contacts from a non apple device?

    Is there any way to access my contacts from a non apple device?
    I am waiting on my new phone to arrive but in the mean time can I access my contacts from a non apple device? Please help!

    If you synced them to iCloud, you can view them on icloud.com from your computer.  They can also be accessed from an Android device using SmoothSync for Cloud Contacts.  Or, you can download them from iCloud as a vCard (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3606), then import them to another service such as Google in order to sync them with a non-Apple device.

  • My daughter cant remember her passcode, and she has never synced it.  Is there any way to restore without losing all the apps and music?

    My daughter can't remember her passcode, and she has never synced it.  Is there any way to restore it without losing all the apps and music that were downloaded?

    If you can't remember the Passcode, you need to restore the device from the computer it was last synced with.
    Follow the instructions for putting the device in recovery mode >  iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    If you are a resident of the U.S., have iTunes 10.3 or later installed, and iOS 4.3.3 or later, can re download iTunes purchases for free.
    So retore the iPod, then re download the iTunes media.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Is there any way to delete text messages from the external screen of an LG EnV3?

    The internal screen of my phone doesn't work, so I've been texting from the external key pad. But my inbox has gotten full and I can't receive texts anymore. Is there any way to delete texts using only the external screen of the EnV3?

    It was awhile ago and I'm not totally sure, but I think this was discussed and the conclusion was that you can't delete texts using the external screen of the Env3. **Edit  (Found one thread: http://community.vzw.com/t5/Messaging-Text-Picture-IM-etc/No-option-to-delete-text-messages-from-front-of-LG-enV3/m-p/43042#M1684 )  It came up in one other thread that I could find and the solution was to use the internal, and similar steps were given - the only difference was using the OK for Menu and #2 for Messages, rather than the left soft key for Messages.  vWhatever works... 
    What you CAN do, is open the flip, left soft key (which is the Messages menu), and there are several options - these are the text messaging ones -
    1. New Message
    2. Inbox (#)
    3. Sent (#)
    4 Drafts (#)
    Press the right soft key (options) and your choices are:
    1.Erase Inbox
    2.Erase Sent
    3.Erase Drafts
    4.Erase All
    If you choose Erase All, then OK - it will erase all except unread messages, and locked messages. If you choose any of the numbers, then hit OK, it will erase ALL in that category, read or not, so I would choose Option 4 to erase all but the unread.
    HTH, and post back if you have further questions...

  • Is there any way to copy your contacts to the sim?

    Hey! i just wanted to ask if theres any way to transfer iPhone contacts to your sim so that u can use the sim in another phone with contacts in it?

    iOS would create two entries if a single contact has two numbers, one for each. Like all other phones do.
    Numbers disgarded will be determined by alphabetical order.  Like they would for every phone that also has this limitation privided they selected the industry standard Copy All option. Otherwise they can pick and choose from their contact list which ones they want to copy if they have more than the maximum allowed phone numbers that can be stored on a sim card. Which is also an industry standard option.
    Average consumers will have to learn how sim card storage works via google for instance or opening the manual instructions on the iPhone or by speaking to their carrier who are more than happy to explain to the customer that by putting the contacts on their sim card they can use their servers to push these numbers to a new sim in the event their current one becomes faulty for whatever reason and they decided to get another manufacturers phone as a consequence.
    He/she will think "Well, atleast I managed to keep whopping huge 500 phone numbers. Saved myself a few hours there."
    Next question?
    PS. Apart from facebook fanatics who don't actually know 90% of the people they friended, do you know anyone with more than 500 phone numbers? Like most I know alot of people, and like a lot of other people I work for a pretty big company and have a company phone... I haven't managed to hit that magic number yet on either of the phones and I can't think of anyone who I know that has. No doubt there might be people out there with more than 500 phone numbers in their contact list but then they find themselves in the same boat as every other person on the entire planet that uses these sim cards in a commerically available phone.
    They haven't lost out on anything by gaining this feature by not being able to create an exact replica of the iPhone Contact list, but they will gain something by seeing it introduced because I am willing to say that the iPhone is the only smartphone/mobilephone on the market within the last decade missing this feature.
    I would also like to point out that out of all the topics created in this section of the forum within the last 24 hours this is one of the most viewed by visitors and thus this question has stoked interest in knowing how to get this feature working... except they learnt harshly that it doesn't exist on their phone. I would imagine there were a couple of "Eh?!" moments when they found that out. As for what they thought when they saw someone doing everything he could to stop it from coming to iPhone, I cannot say. Because like them I cannot understand why such a feature would be so vigorously opposed, especial;ly when that sim contact list can be transferred between different carriers when using a PAC code to transfer your old number to a new contract with a different company.
