HT4910 how to retrieve lost contacts in the cloud

I lost all of my contacts please help

Missing contacts:
Here's a test to perform - using a computer's browser, log into icloud.com and go to the Contacts page.  If they are gone, then they are gone. 
If they show up, then the problem is that your device is not connecting to the Contacts database on icloud. 
On the device, go to Settings>icloud.  Be sure icloud is on and using the right ID.  If not, scroll to the bottom of the page and tap Delete Account - this just disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost.  Then log back in using the correct ID.  ALSO - be sure the Contacts are turned on (on the same screen).
Note:  Contacts are not part of an iCloud backup, since they are part of contacts database on iCloud's servers.

  • I can't retrieve my contacts from the cloud.  I don't have options listed on the instructions to "download"

    My phone died and I am trying to retrieve my contacts from the cloud. I can see them in my Cloud app on my new phone, but I don't have the option to download or "start" as the instructions indicate.  I don't have a phone to transfer to, so somehow need to retrieve them.

       Your post is kind of confusing. You have a new phone and don't have a phone to transfer to?? With the phone that died. If that phone was using Verizon Cloud to back up. Then when you activating Verizon Cloud on the new phone, one of the steps would ask, do you want to transfer from old phone to new phone?
    If you had nothing backed up with Verizon Cloud on the old phone there would be nothing to restore to the new phone.
    When activating Verizon Cloud on the new phone, only what is currently showing on the new phone will be able to be backed up, along with what is added in the future.

  • Is it possible to retrieve lost notes from the cloud?

    I recently deleted the notes on my iPod, thinking they'd be on my iPad and stored in the cloud. When I checked on my iPad, they were not there. Is there any way I can retrieve them?

    If they were on your device when you last backed up to iCloud, you may be able to restore them from the backup by following the steps in Winston Churchill's post here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22600445#22600445.

    Take it back where you got and and get your money back.
    As has been pointed out, if there was a "previous owner", the phone is not "new". Thephone you purchased is most likely stolen. If whoever you bought it from won't give you your money back, turn it over to the police.

    Does anyone know how to retrieve lost mailbox folders and their contents in mail?

    It might be that you selected "Delete sent mail after a mont (or a week, or whatever)" in Mail Preferences. iCloud account is IMAP, so it won't keep mail in your HD. I have that problem.

    How do I retrieve my photos from the cloud after a reset. My photos are gone from my phone, and I backed them up on iCloud? when I restored it, no camera roll pictures?

    Try restoring the backup again.  Sometimes it's successful the second time.  You could also try restoring an older backup.  iCloud will have your last 3 backups is you have sufficient storage space in your account.

  • How to I sync my contacts in the cloud with Address Book?

    Via Address Book on my iMac, I've managed to organize all my contacts into two folders on the cloud. I'd now like to sync them so that Address Book on my computer mirrors my contacts on the cloud.
    How do I do this? And how can I make it so that in the future if I add a new contact on my computer that it auto updates in the cloud.

    If your Mac is running OS X 10.7.5 or higher, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign in with your iCloud ID and check Contacts.  If you don't have OS X 10.7.5 or higher you will have to update OS X in order to sync with iCloud.
