    If you have been regularly syncing/backing up your iPhone with iTunes or iCloud, you may try restoring it from the last backup.
    Read how to restore from a backup.

    Make sure to turn OFF automatic syncing in iTunes before connecting your iPhone.
    Preferences - devices - "check" prevent iPhone/iPod from automatic syncing

    i updated my iphone and all my contacts were deleted, how can i get them back?

    like roaminggnome said you should see your contacts again once you sync with iTunes. if you used iCloud before, make sure contact sync is turned on and your contacts should be back.

  • My iPhone 5 has lost some, but not all messages.  How do I retrieve them?

    My iPhone5 has lost some, but not all messages.  How can I retrieve them?  I did try to reset, but it did not work.

    An iPhone cannot "dump" or "lose" those features.
    They can be turned off in Settings > General > Restrictions or blocked by an Exchange Admin when an Exchange profile is loaded.

    If you backed them up before updating, you should be able to restore them - either by just going to iTunes - Device - Apps and selecting them, or by restoring from the back-up made right before the update (the update wipes out your machine and then restores from back-up - but it's not clear that this is happening, so it's possible you interrupted the restoration before it was fully done; I did that at first ).
    Hey! I have a similar problem.
    My situation is that after I updated I did another restore from backup (which was made ages ago) to get iTunes to put things as they were into folders etc., but this second backup also overwrote the app data and other information (like contacts).
    So the question is where can I find and restore from the back-up made by iTunes automaticaly during the update?

  • Some of my notes disappeared. How can I retrieve them?

    Some of my notes disappeared without even erasing them. How can I retrieve them?

    I'm afraid to say that all of my notes disappeared yesterday, on my iPhone and iPad because they were connected by iCloud. I guess they are in the great blue yonder somewhere. The annoying thing is that I am a songwriter and use notes to jot down lines as they come into my head.and suffice to say that I have lost a great deal of material. To make matters worse, I haven't even updated my phone to ios6, only my iPad not wanting to put all of my eggs in one basket so to speak.

  • I have updated to iOS 6. All my files were lost. Help!

    Hello Fine Gentlemen!
    I am sorry to borrow your time, but this problem has made me mad recently. I have an iPad 3rd Gen, which I could no update (somehow) with the iPad itself. The same with my Mac. I kept getting error messages (although no code though, so I am unable to search them by myself) so I decided to do the update on a different Mac. I had backups everywhere.
    When I updated it on the other Mac, the iPad went into recovery mode. It updated, but as soon as I lifted my iPad, there was nothing. Restore from backup did not help either. Only the photos were recovered. But my apps and it's data, all gone! Now you see, this is curious, because for example, I lost all my files on iBooks (PDF's) and I have no way of retrieving them, still, only one I was able to download it again on my iPad through the Dropbox app. Nevertheless, when I opened the PDF, the iPad remebered where I have last left the PDF, and it opened in the exact page I left it.
    This does give me hope though. It seems the app data is stored somewhere, only I don't know where.
    Could you, my dearest Apple users, will you be able to solve the Enigma?
    Yours Sincerely,
    The King.

    I have exactly the same issue since iOS6 upgrade ona 4S - 3G not working at all, Wifi is OK though. Major own goal by Apple here I think...:(

  • HT4972 I did the software update on my iphone to iOS and have lost all my contacts.  How can i retrieve them? Please help

    Please help me, i have lost all my contacts during a software update and have no idea how to retrieve them.

    If you've been using your phone as recommended, you've been keeping your contacts safe on your computer in Outlook or Address Book, or safe with a cloud service like Google. 
    Your contacts should be there safe and sounds ready to synch back to your iPhone.
    Not using your phone as recommended and only using your phone as the sole place for contacts?  Well, you've just learned a hard lesson.  They're gone.

  • I UPDATED MY I PHONE 4 TO THE NEW WHAT EVR SYSTEM AND ALL MY CONTACTS WERE DELETED HOW CAN I GET THEM BACK?

    either sync it with itunes and make sure your contacts are selected or choos back up from icloud in your icloud settings.

  • After I updated to iOS 8, I noticed that while copying photos to my PC, I see photos being categorized into many folders. I also found some system files in each of the folders containing photos (in the name of Local Disk). Is this usual?

    I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
    I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more.  And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should.  On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much.  I will post a note in the app store to let them know.  I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
    I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine. 
    Starbucks app works as it should. 
    I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.

  • Some of my songs won't play after I updated to iOS 7

    Before I updated my phone to iOS 7 all of my music was playing normally, but after I updated there are several songs that are not playing. When I look at them in the music app, it won't let me click on the song and on the right side there is a red square with a red circle surrounding it.

    I encountered the same problem yesterday and found the solution after seeing this same issue posted on Apple support over multiple dates since September. I followed the advice of one commenter and did a restore procedure of the iphone and that solved the issue. The commenter provided a link to a non-apple web site and the instructions differed only slightly from Apple's instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414. I can't find the original advice or that site right now but here's what I did:
    1. ensured that only the usb end of my sync cable was attached to my computer with itunes open.
    2. held the home and top buttons down simultaneously on my untethered iPhone to power it off.
    3. Keeping my finger on the home phone only, connected the iPhone to the other end of the sync cable that was connectd to my computer (fyi, I use a macbook pro and back up everthng to iCloud)
    4. the warning message came up in iTunes about are you sure you want to restore all your media and other data (on the phone) will be erased.  You can click cancel or restore; I chose restore. It took a while but all my apps, photos and music returned to my iPhone without the red circles with red squares on some tracks.
    Background:  I updated to ios 7 back in September with no problems.  Yesterday, I imported new digital audio to my itunes library and then went to sync, it appeared that I was way over capacity on my iphone.  I tried removing pictures and apps I don't use. That brought memory down, but the sync would not correct the red circle/squre issue of certain tracks in my music on my iPhone.  These files played fine in iTunes on the computer.  On the Apple thread where I found the advice that I've posted that worked, that person had spoken to an Apple person on the phone who believed that a file must have gotten corrupted on the iPhone and recommended the restore. I think the same happened to me.  The new digital audio files which I had imported into iTunes were mp3s which worked fine in iTunes, but must have gotten corrupted during the first sync. I converted to aac and shrunk to 128, but whenever I tried to sync, things looked normal (except for a diagnostic message) but the waiting to copy took way to long and when things finally started to copy, it was so slow that he sync just quit on its own.  THEN I noticed that all the music that had the red circle/squares were files that I had originally put into iTunes from CDs - so, music not purchased via iTunes.  These were imported quite a while back. Fortunately, they were all backed up to the cloud and restore of the iPhone worked.  All that music is back and I don't get the diagnostic message or slow wait and quit problem now.

  • I am having a lot of issues syncing anything to my iPhone 4, just after i updated to iOS 5.

    So i updated to ios 5 and i was having issues with everything. my photos and contacts and everything synced alright, but none of my music worked. so i restored it back to just after i updated to ios 5, and my music and ringtones and everything was working. but now, when i try to apply the ringtones - and some of them are even purchased - it plays what the ringtone is, but it just stays as marimba. any other default ringtones work, but none of my custom ones. do i have to keep restoring my iphone every time i want anything on it? cuz im worried ill ruin all my progress if i restore it again. when will an update be out, or does anyone have a solution?

    bump? Is bumping allowed? Lol.
    I just really need some help here.

  • My iPhone 5S will put itself on mute, hold or speaker and also pulls up my contacts when I'm on the phone all after I updated to iOS 8.2...

    after I updated to ios 8.2 it's hard to have a phone call without my phone pulling up my contacts or putting itself on speaker, mute or hold on it's own.

    Looks like the proximity sensor is not working correctly. Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches after installing new software.
