HT4994 i lost all of my contacts how can i get them back

Please help!!  I hit the sync button so that I could update to 6.0 and all of my contacts are gone.  I even backed it up so I thought and no contacts still.  Please tell me how to retrieve my contacts.

Icloud? 
Do you back your contacts to your carrier? I know Verizon offers this.

  • Just completed an update and lost all my phone contacts.  Can I get them back?

    Just completed an update to my 3G Iphone.  Lost all my contacts.  Can I get them back, please???

    Contacts are not a part of backup (only favourites and recent calls list are backed up). Contacts are synced with a compatible programme on your computer (Outlook, Windows Contacts, Addressbook etc) or with a cloud service (iCloud, Yahoo, Google).
    Sync them back from the programme you were using for backing up your contacts.
    If you have not been backing up your contacts to either of these programmes, then they are gone.

  • I have lost all of my changes -- How can I get them back?

    I have made changes to many files in many folders.  I have successfully moved several of those folders from my laptop to a USB external hard drive (as my laptop just cannot hold all photos).
    This week, I purchased an installed a Network Attached Storage drive . . . and I copied all folders and photographs from my USB hard drive to the new networked drive.  Then I disconnected my USB drive.  Instead of then "locating" the "missing" folders (and re-mapping them one by one to the network drive), I "removed" the old folders from lightroom and re "imported" them from the new location on the network drive.
    UNFORTUNATELY - none of my changes are there.  How do I get these back?
    Thank you for any help.

    Use a backup of your catalog that you made before you did this.  If you don't have one, the changes are gone.

  • Sync deleted all of my contacts, how can I get them back?

    I recently got an iPhone 4s. I synced it to iTunes for the first time to transfer all the music and apps from my iPod touch to my iPhone. In the process all of my contacts, messages, and notes were deleted. I checked for a backup but there hasn't been a backup for my iPhone yet, is there any way I can get my contacts back?

    Megan,
    It really is very simple.
    First of all look in the recycle bin where your songs may still be.
    If not, and they're deleted from the computer, and your iPod, there is no way to get them back without using some data recovery software such as PodSalvage.
    I was trying to help in another of your posts, why post again?

    Did you backup the iPad first? If you did - restore from the backup in order to restore the photos in the Saved Album on your iPad. If the photos were synced to the iPad, then sync them back again via iTunes.

    If you did backup first, you will be restoring your most recent backup and you should be OK. But know that when you restore from a backup, you restore everything that is in that backup onto the iPad .... All documents, device settings, all data and so on. You cannot just select photos to restore to the iPad. It's all or nothing.

    Type move itunes library into the google serach bar.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain  abackup copy of your computer.  Do you not have a backup copy?

  • HT204053 My husband went to upHdate his phone this morning and when he did he lost all his contacts how can he get them back

    My husband went to update his phone this morning and when he did he lost all his contacts how can he get them back

    Thanks, but I checked iCloud and it has none of them.
    If it backed up to my laptop, that died and I just got the new computer. The one that's crashed won't even boot, so there's no way to even tell if it was syncing the contacts along with all the phone photos. Literally happened at the same time - it was because I had the new computer that I was finally able to pull the photos off the phone and make room for the upgrade. It had refused to upgrade for lack of space for some time.
    I had thought it was set to sync to iCloud but it vanished from BOTH my phone and the cloud. That's why I'm so angry about it.

  • I reinstalled Firefox and lost bookmarks from my computer, how can I get them back (sync ?)from my android phone ?

    My bookmarks are really gone from my computer but I have them in my android phone.
    I've tried to use this sync but it doesn't work. How can I get them back to the computer from my android phone ?
    I have checked also backup files but they are really gone.

    Hi penami,
    Thank you for your question, and I am sorry to hear that you lost your bookmarks. In order to check if they are still there you can look in the profile folder on the computer [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]]
    As for syncing from the android, it is possible to add the account to the desktop and the two should merge.

  • I set up an iCloud account, and it erased ALL of my contacts, how do I get them back?

    I just now set up an iCloud account, and when I went to my messages, I saw that there were no contacts, just all numners. So I went to my contacts, and it turns out that there are none. How do I get them back? I'm freaking out!

    So when setting up the iCloud account and it asked if you wanted to import the contacts on the device, what did you tell it to do?

  • HT201272 i have lost all my audio books, how do i get them back

    I purchased a load of audio books now they have disapeared, how do i get them back.
    Thanks Lee

    You will need to restore them from your backup. If you did not make a backup, then you may be out of luck since audiobooks are one of the few items for which redownloading is not possible, but you can contact the iTunes Store, explain the problem, and ask:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
    It's possible they'll make an exception for you.
    Regards.

  • HT4623 When I updated the phone I lost my contacts, how can I get them back?

    We updated my husbands phone and all his contacts got erased. Can anyone tell me how to get them back!

    The iphone is designed to be sycned to your computer regularly.
    The contact will be in whatever program he has chosen to sync.  Sync them back to the iphone form there.

  • I downloaded iso5 and lost all my apps which i know i can get back but one of them is pages so i have lost all my documents ! How do i get them back?

    I downloaded iso5 and lost all my apps. I know i can get them back but what about all the documents i have now lost through Pages? And to a lesser extent the levels and scores i got to with my games (eg. angry birds)?

    On your iPad tap Settings > Store
    Make sure Apps is switched on.
    For Documetns tap Settings > iCloud. Make sure Documents & Data ia switched on.
    Now resrtart your iPad.    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

  • I had pictures and videos on my I phone 4 s which I wanted to put onto my laptop, and I dunno what I pressed on I tunes it totally wiped out all my stuff. How can I get them back??? Help???

    I had pictures and videos on my I phone 4s which I tried to put onto my laptop and I don't know what I pressed on I tunes it just completely wiped out all my data, how can I get all that back I've been told e everything is still in the phones hardware does anyone know how I can get it back??? Need help please???

    Do you see them on the phone? If not, they are NOT "still in the phones hardware".
    It's hard to suggest a course of action when we don't know what you did and you are unable to tell us.
    If they are not on your computer, and they are not on the phone, I don't know what else to suggest...
    Were you using iCloud? Did you have photo stream enabled? If you did, they would have been uploaded to iCloud. If you did not, then they are gone.
