HT4859 lost my contacts' info on iphone after i signing onto icloud

Hi, I lost all of my contacts' info after signing onto icloud and backing up.  Now, contact list on my iphone is blank.  How can I get the info back onto my iphone without resetting?  Thanks

If you backed up both devices - like you should always do when you update a device - any device - then the contacts should be in your backup - and you can restore from the backup. If you didn't backup - they may be gone.

  • HT4528 i lost all my info on iphone after downloading 5.0.

    after downloading 5.0 i lost all my info-apps,phone numbers-e-mails. everything. verizon told me today that i needed to upgrade but never told you may loose your info if you are not careful with???

    All of your info should be on your computer.
    You should never update any computer/device without making sure that everything is backed up to an external source.
    As the iphone is designed to be synced to your comptuer regularly, your info should be there, unless you have failed to sync everything.

  • Lost my contacts on my iphone after activating iCloud. How do I retrieve my contacts back?

    I have recently turned on iCloud on my phone, however because of it, I lost my contacts, calendar events and notes. I turned back off the notes, contacts and calendar on my phone. My calendar events and notes came back, but my contacts were never restored. How do I get my contacts back?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Have you tried turning contacts syncing back on and then off again.

  • HT1766 I lost my contacts on my iphone after updating to ios7

    just using my phone, and noticed all the calls/texts I was receiving didn't have names only numbers.  So I looked in my contacts and all contact information was gone. 

    Your phone is erased before it is upgraded. If you did not backup or did not restore the backup, then your data are all gone. If you have a backup you can restore it using iTunes. If you don't, then you can re-sync your data from the computer assuming you have the data in your Address Book and Calendar.

  • I cannot get my iPhone 6  to sign onto iCloud

    it keeps giving me a verification code. I put it in and it just gives Me another.

    Maybe you'd have to contact an Apple Store or the carrier who handles
    the phone, about how to reset it. There should be some helpful motions
    and efforts to attempt to re-connect the vehicle to the iPhone, there.
    Perhaps there's a firmware update for the vehicle at an authorized agency...
    Looking ahead, when looking into newer 2015+ models, test with a phone.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    Lost all contact info.  All my Aps are there but all the data/progress is missing.  When I plug my iphone into the usb fto synch up with my itunes on the computer a message comes up and says "enter the password to unlock your iphone backup file".  This is very frustrating

    I suggest trying the update again after an hour or two.  Sometimes, the notice that an update is available comes an hour or two before the developers actually sends the revised app out to be downloaded.

  • I've lost my Contacts, Messages, Photos etc after having IOS 4.3.2 installed at the Apple Store. I cannot locate previous back-up history, only the back-up after I synced the phone after it had been updated. How do I recover my previous info please?

    You should have restored the backup that was on your computer before syncing. Now it is too late. However, if you followed the instructions in the manual and set up an app on your computer to sync contacts and calendar to they will still reside in those apps. Photos in the camera roll are lost, however, if you had followed the instructions in the manual to copy photos from the camera roll to your computer regularly you can restore them to the photo app from the copy on your computer. Text messages are gone for good. Music and Apps should be in the music library on your computer.

  • How come calendars and contacts vanish from iPhone after upgrade to iTunes 6.1.2?

    How come calandras and contacts vanish from iPhone after upgrade to iTunes 6.1.2?

    Hi, Did you work out a fix for this?  All my calender dates (past & future) and the last 12 months of new contacts gone!!!!   And yes i too back up regularly. 
    Previously when the great 5 upgrade happened, i did loss everything, and although I was doing backups none of that info was relative in an English way. A whole life of important, unreplaceable information gone!  Never to be found.
    All of my products are apple, but it seems that little people dont matter to them, with no recourse for the damage to my personal or professional life.
    Extremly disappointed again!

  • Lost my contacts on my iphone 4 - how can I retrieve them?

    Help! I've lost my contacts on my iphone 4 - how can I retrieve them?

    Hi
    There are two options for you :
    1) Setup the mail which contains the contacts on your iPhone by going to Settings > Mail Contacts and Calendars > Add account and once setup is complete come back to the same path and click on your email account name and turn on contacts.
    2) Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts and Calendars > Add account > Other > Add CardDav Account.
    Either of these two should fix your issue.

  • How can i get my deleted contacts in my iphone 4s without itunes and icloud backup

    how can i get my deleted contacts in my iphone 4s without itunes and icloud backup

    If you connect your iPhone to a computer running Linux (Ubuntu version in my case) it will become recognized as a normal USB memory pen-drive.
    From there, you can use many methods to recover your lost deleted files.
    TestDrive allows you to search the drive (iPhone memo) and gives you the possibility to recover deleted files. I'm not an expert, nor did it with iDevice by myself. But it worked for me with Symbian phone (Nokia)...
    Alternatively:
    Check steps explained in this article.

  • HT4910 how can I import my contacts from my Iphone 5 device to the Icloud?

    how can I import my contacts from my Iphone 5 device to the Icloud?

    To get the contacts from your Hotmail and exchange accounts into iCloud, do the following:
    Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (any iCloud contacts will still be in iCloud).
    Download the app My Contacts Backup.  (If you have more than 500 contacts to transfer from your external accounts you will need the “Pro” version.)  Use the app to back up the remaining contacts on your phone as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  Confirm that you have received the email.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), and set this to iCloud.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap your Hotmail and exchange accounts and turn off contacts syncing with with these accounts.  If you don't you will see duplicates of your contacts (one from the external account and one from iCloud).
    Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from the external accounts back to your phone, and to iCloud.  Go to icloud.com to confirm they are there.
