HT4859 lost emails and contacts

all emails, email folders, and contacts disappeared from my PC after I updated and synced my iPhone. anyone know how to recover this data? I tried to restore from a back up and it got worse. I lost even the little still left on my iPhone.

If you don't have an older backup on icloud available, then the only possible recourse is doing a restore from a computer backup (of the missing data) assuming you have made frequent backups of the computer and the computer also had the missing data at some point in the past.

Lost my work email and contacts on my 4S

I got a new Iphone at work and own the 3G for personal use. My work phone was all set up with email and contacts and I decided to bring in my personal contacts, music, etc to my new 4 S Iphone. All my work contacts and email are now gone.
How do I get that information back?
Also my phone has all of my kids friends phone #s in it because Itunes put them there. Is there a way to look at your contacts on I tunes and delete people you don't want on your phone. I need to delete 200 of my kids and wife contacts as they have come onto my phone.
Thanks for your help!

All iDevices can be synced with one, and only one, computer. If your 4S was set up at work, that's the only omputer you can connect it to. When you connected it to your home computer iTunes warned you about the on sequences of doing that. You went ahead, so it synced the 4S to your iTunes, erasing everything else.
Sync it to the computer it was originally synced with.

I lost all of my folders on the "On MY Computer" section just below my gmail inbox. I am using Outlook for Mac 2011. Can I restore those lost emails and folders?

Did you set up your phone to sync Contacts with iCloud? If not sure, you can log in to https://www.icloud.com and see if your contacts are there.

Calendar Sync not working - email and contact sync working

Hi,
my company's exchange activesync is working for email and contact but not for calendar. there is no single meeting in my iphone calendar. when invitation arrives, I get alarm and I can even see invitation on phone and can accept it. it then goes into calendar but gets removed soon after (after it gets sync with exchange I guess).
I know that multiple issues like this have been discussed in this forum but could not find similar. My IT guy telling me that it is iPhone issue as it is only one global object and my email and contacts are working.
BTW, other iphone users have same issues.
Any comments? is this because of 2.2.1?
thanks,
Sam

were you able to solve this? i too can sync mail and contacts but not calendar...
so far i have recreated my SSL
rerun the internet connection wizard
tried it from my ipod touch running 2.2.1
tried it from my dev iphone 3g running 3.0b5
tested and CAN access everything via outlook and OMA
can add an appointment via iphone, it appears in Outlook, but cannot add from outlook and sync
have deleted every single appointment/event/anniversary then added one to check for corrupt.
everything worked fine until a few days ago when the dev iphone had 3.0 installed on it... at first, the calendar was all i could get to sync, we had some interesting firewall setup that was causing confusion for a few things, in an effort to make life easier on the dev phone, the firewall was simplified (removed double NAT). but, in the process of removing and adding and removing and adding my Exchange info, i gained the ability to sync my contacts and mail, but lost my calendar.
i do not think 3.0 is the exact issue, but i do think it may have caused some kind of problem with exchange or activesync which others have apparently been able to cause with 2.2.1.
any verbose suggestions are appreciated... i've spent the last two days pulling out whats left of my hair and trying to find someone with a Windows Mobile or other Activesync device that's not iPhone/iPod to test looking for clues. thanks.

Emails and contacts information is missing

I changed computers today and logged into Verizon to set up Outlook Express on the new machine. all of my old emails are gone; as are my contact information. it had old stuff saved from three years ago but nothing recent. Help? how do i retreive my messages and contact info now?

Anything in Outlook is stored on the individual computer. It will not be stored on the website anywhere. You would need to Export all your emails and contacts from your old computers outlook program. Then take the file it creates and Import them to your new computers Outlook.

Clearing Old Emails and Contacts

I have an old Bold 9870 and now use a Z10. I need to clear all the emails and contacts from the Bold so I can load a new Sim and let someone else use the phone. I cannot see how to clear all the emails from the server or how to prevent the new user reading all my emails and coantacts.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Many thanks Steve

You'll need to do a security wipe on the phone.
On your homescreen, follow Options>Security>Security Wipe OR Options>Device>Security>Security Wipe, depending on which OS your phone is running. Once on the Security Wipe page, follow the instructions to clear the phone of all personal data.
Let us know if that helps you.

My iPad opens my husband's email and contact. How do I change identities to me

My iPad opens my husband's email and contact but not mine. How do I change the identity of my iPad

I'm assuming you and your wife have different accounts and that hers has somehow been used in the setup of your devices/computers. (If you are both sharing one account, then you should consider using separate ones for icloud, otherwise everything you do will be shared with your wife. You can use the same account for itunes to share your purchases, unless you have already made purchases under separate itunes accounts, in which case you'll need to continue doing that.)
On a device, go to settings>icloud and scroll down to the bottom of the page and tap delete account. This will remove all icloud data from your device. Then at the top of the page, log into **your** account and all your data from your account will download.
Also, settings>itunes and apps stores, log out if it's the wrong account and log in using your account ID.

Need Icloud HELP!!! 2 email and contact account pulling from one ID

My wife and I have the same apple ID and when I set up Icloud it insist on us recieving the same email and contacts even though hers is entered under her email???

You can use the same iTunes. The only minor issue is app updating. Each purchased item is permanently associated with whatever ID was used to obtain it. IF you choose to update an app from inside iTunes and your logged in to the "wrong" ID, it's necessary to log out/in to update the app.
It's easier if you do your updating directly to the iPad and let it sync the updated items back to the iTunes library. There is no need to log out/in but you do need to know the password. In my case, both passwords are deliberately identical to make things easier for us.
On the other hand, the sync operation does not care what ID was used to obtain the app. All apps (and music and movies and TV shows) are synced without regard to the ID that was used for the purchase.
Be careful with TV shows. Apple offers a lower-cost upgrade to get all shows from a given year. However, the dollar cost of the upgrade is based on the shows purchased with whatever ID you're currently logged in with. Simple solution - get all shows from a specific series with the same ID.

Can't open email and contacts after changing email address in iCloud

I changed my email address in iTunes and iCloud and now I cannot open email and contacts. The beachball appears and after about 2-3 minutes I get a message that the program cannot open. I'm ready to throw my iMac out the window. It is only a couple months old.

Back up all data.
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.
