I am upgrading from an iphone 4 to a 5. All my contacts are stored in icloud. Can they be downloaded onto my new iphone5
Hi,
I have an iphone 4S, and being supplied with an iphone 5. I use the icloud to store all my data, can this be downloaded from the icloud to my new phone, or should I store everything on my laptop first?
Thanks
JW
Yes.
You can transfer the backup for your iPhone 4 to the new iPhone which will include your iCloud account and account settings. Your iCloud contacts are stored in the cloud and will be downloaded by your new iPhone.

Can you tell me why this is happening? I have synced my iPhone with iTunes on the PC and they have still not appeared in the phone contacts.
If you are syncing your contacts from your PC with iCloud, they are not transferred to your phone using iTunes. They are synced to your phone using iCloud, either over wifi or your cellular data network.
First go to icloud.com with your computer browser, sign into your account and open Contacts there to confirm that your contacts appear. If they do, go to Settings>iCloud on your phone, sign into your account and turn Contact on. Assuming your phone is either connected to wifi or your cellular data network, the contacts should then download from iCloud to your phone. -
I have an iPhone 4S and while upgrading to OS 8.3, I noticed that all my contacts are gone. Can I connect to my iMac OS Yosemite 10.10.3 and transfer contacts directly onto my phone?
Hey there denise.ca,
I see that you have a question about one of the functions of USB syncing. To answer your question, yes, you can sync contacts from your computer to your iPhone using USB syncing and iTunes:

How do I delete apps from my itunes acct so they dont download onto my new iphone?
How do I delete apps off my iTunes acct so they don't download onto my new iphone?
Open iTunes with your device connected to the computer. Click on the Apps entry under Libraries in the iTunes sidebar. Locate the apps you don't want, select the app, CTRL- or RIGHT-click and select Delete from the context menu. When you've deleted all the ones you don't want re-sync your device with iTunes.

I did the ios6 upgrade on my iphone 4s and lost all my contacts. Can I get them back? They are stored on my pc on microsoft outlook. thanks
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. -
TS1347 I just updated my iphone, and all my contacts are gone. What can I do?
Just updated my iphone and lost all my contacts. What do I do?
sync your phone to itunes then sync your contacts. Or restore from backup.

while trying to update my version, itunes kept timing out. I successfully updated another phone w/o a problem. After 8 hours of attempting and even trying 2 different computers, I decided to "restore"! My bad!!! Was so frustrated by then I just did it. Now, phone is as if I took it out of the box! Contacts are gone, calendar entries gone etc. Is there any way to get back that info? I checked in outlook, but it appears that none of my back-ups ever "took". Outlook in empty!
The only way you can get back some info is to restore your phone from the most recent backup. Naturally, any data added to the phone since that last backup and current, will be gone.

Hi
Can anyone help me? Since upgrading to v6 of the iphone software the other day, all my contacts have gone, and I can't connect to orange contacts restore to get them back, or access my email. Other web pages seem ok.
When I try to connect to the orange backup app, the connection just times out and says connection error. When I try to access my email it says verify i have put the correct a/c info into mail settings.
Both things were fine before I updated.
Help!

I upgraded from an iphone 4 to a 4s, after a few initial problems and two restores, everythings seemed to be working...until I went to play some music, all music loaded to itunes via CD's played, but ALL purchased music from itunes does not play...i click on the song and the screen flashes to the image then goes back to the list of songs, so the purchased music shows up...just does not play. Can anyone help resolve this problem? Thanks!
here is an interesting thing: take the iphone and set lock screen to never. Now make an email with siri--be sure to activate her with call button. get to the body and get some text in there. then just stop talking. LOCK SCREEN APPEARS!!!!!! and of course you draft is gone.
There does seem to be a work around for some--maybe all these issues. Don't use the call button--use the buttons on the phone.
Siri seems to behave properly with scenerio above---sans call button. She does not go to lock. -

I recently upgraded from my iPhone 3 to iPhone 4s. My old iPhone had not completed a sync in some time because of a faulty cable. But the old phone still will not sync properly even with the new cable.
Now that I have my new iPhone, I would like to first sync the old phone so all the data will be available for the new phone. I would also like to have an extra copy of my audio ebooks on the old iPhone so my husband and I can both listen at the same time using earphones while driving long distances in the car and then discuss the book. We have been unable to do this with the old iPhone alone due to constant road noise.I'm not sure what made the difference, but I tried again and it worked this time. ???????????

How to transfer all phone number and apps and notes, pretty much copy my old iPhone to my new iPhone , all content and apps.

Is this a nightmare or an easy task?Connect to iTunes and backup. Then when you receive the new phone restore from that backup.
