Now when I synced with Facebook it doesn't have any of the phone numbers for the contacts. HELP ME GET MY NUMBERS BACK PLEASE

Are the contacts on your phone to be the same as the contacts in your computer? if yes do following:
In iTunes/Preferences/Devices check the "Prevent iPods.... from syncing automatically".
Connect your iPhone to iTunes by cable or set sync by WiFi on the Summary page.
Then on the Info Page scroll down and check "contacts" under the "Advanced" heading.
Then click "sync" in the right bottom of the page.

I need to activate my iPad3 after I reset it to factory settings. it informs me that it is linked to an Apple ID that I used to set it up when I bought it 4
years ago. I cannot remember whether it was icloud or gmail. How can I recover that Apple ID? It will not activate with my present apple id.

If he doesn't remember the password or the Security Questions, he will have to contact Apple Support to have the Security Questions reset so the password can be reset:

I paid for a ringtone and had to restore my phone and now I don't have the ringtone. How can I get that back without having to pay for it again?

I had to restore my phone and before I did it I bought a ringtone and now I do not have that ringtone. How do I get that back without having to repay for it?

Call iTunes support and see if they will re-grant it back to you. Shouldn't be a problem, they have done it for quite a few people I know.

If you tried to restore to your iCloud backup and your photos didn't fully restore, first go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and make sure it isn't still in the process of restoring.
If the restore is complete and all your photos weren't restored, all you can do is try restoring the backup again. You might try the solution posted by ezjules in this discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19518589#19518589. This involves opening the photos app after the phone restarts and you provide the passwords for your Apple IDs, then leaving it open for the remainder of the restore process.

Sorry Raj,
If you did not back up your information, and you have now restored your phone, then your information is not recoverable.

I updated my IOS on my iPhone 4S and it locked up. I had to restore my phone and now iTunes will not go past the setup your phone screen even though the phone as been restored. How do I get iTunes to go past this screen so I can sync my phone again?

Depending on what iPhone you have when you get to the connect to wifi you should be able to activate your device over cellular data. Try doing a hard reset by holding the home circle button an power button until an apple pops up and the go through the setup again and when you get to the wifi part a option should be setup with cellular data iPhone 4 and above should give this option sometimes doesn't like showing up that's why u have to do a hard reset first

Insert a SIM from a supported carrier.
Where did the phone come from, it sounds like the device has been hacked or jailbroken to be unlocked and updating has re locked to the original carrier. It is also possible that the SIM simply needs to be reseated or replaced.

This morning the Iphone prompted me to update software. After that it said my phone was in recovery mode and I had the restore my phone. Now most of the apps are muted and don't respond, help!

First, in iTunes, launch Preferences and go to the Devices tab. Check the date and time of the last backup. If it is recent you can restore it. However, if you mean you have the photos back in your Camera Roll then the backup was already restored. To get your music and apps back it should just be necessary to click "Sync".

Contacts created on iPhone not sync with iCloud

I'm having this problem for a while now. Since my last iPhone.
Currently I have:
an iPhone 5, an iPad, a MCB and an iMac.
All updated with last versions, all using iCloud to sync contacts.
If I create a new contact on the MCB or on the iMac, it will sync to iCloud and to the iDevices. If edit this contact, or even delete it from the device, it will be deleted from iCloud, MSB and iMac.
If I create a contact in the iPad, it will work fine if on settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars, the "Default Account" for contacts is set to "iCloud" instead on "On my iPad"
The problem is: if I create a contact on the iPhone, it will not be synced with iCloud, MCB, iMac or iPad. It will remain only on the iPhone. And on the iPhone, under settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars there is no "Default Account" for contacts, so I'm assuming it is set to "On my iPhone" by default.
Does anyone know how to add the option? or how to force the iPhone to create contacts on iCloud instead on the device itself?

Ensure that indeed you have your iCloud contact sync enabled on your iPhone. If this is true, try forcing the Default Account option to appear under Contacts on your iPhone Settings > Mail, Calendars, Settings. Then follow the instructions from here: iCloud contacts not syncing.
To force the Default Accont option to appear, simply enable an additional contact sync account such as Exchange or CardDAV

I can not get imac w/Snow Leopard's address book to sync with ipad 1correctly? I only get about half the contacts?

I have tried repeatedly to get my address book on my imac w/ snow leopard to sync to my ipad 1 correctly and have failed every time. I only get about 1/3 the number of contacts and they don't all even correlate with the ones on the imac. Like one will have full middle name and the other only the initial. I don't know where itunes is getting these contacts but doesn't match those in my address book. I keep telling itunes to replace the contacts on the ipad with those on my mac but it doesnt work. Can't do it with icloud cause snow leopard doesn't support, it still wants to use the non existant mobile me format. Hope someone can help. I added the all amnually once before but they screwed up when I sync each time.

Thanks for your response Ernie. You are correct in that whenever you type a series of letters, Address Book (as it always has) finds every single thing with that combination of letters - Names, businesses, adjectives, people's dogs' names, letters in product serial numbers, etc. This is useful for finding a subject on the Web, or finding all documents related to 'iPhoto' on your Mac, etc., but not useful, quick or convenient when trying to find one person to call in your Address Book (which is what people use Address Book for).
What is DIFFERENT in the Snow Leopard version, is that the ability to type one letter to instantly go to last names with that letter has been removed. Previously, you could easily find 'Bill Tilman' in one second by simply typing 'T'. Now you get every word that starts with T and all the words in the card that have a T in them. If you type out a full name like 'Bill', it finds every person named Bill. No one would ever want to find all their contacts named Bill to call them. You could type out the full last name 'Tilman', but there again you are forced to type out a complete name to do a search. It would actually be quicker to scroll down and find it manually. The ability to type a single letter to find the last name (or business name) of a contact you needed to call, was much quicker and easier than having to type out the entire name.
