I backed up my iPhone information with ICloud but it mixed up contacts between me an my dad how do I get my contacts back

I backed up my iPhone today and it changed all my contact, is there any way I can change my contact back to the way they were before I backed it up without going to my home computer, I can use a different one but not the originnal since me and him don't talk any more. Thank you for your help!

Usually it means that your calendar has been synced by something other then icloud. If it was an email account you just need to set up mail account and it will populate. To check if your calendar was synced with cloud you can go to www.icloud.com and sign in. Once you do check under calendars if you have any info.

The new iOS 6.0 update doesn't show my apps on my home screen. They are in the iCloud but only give me the option to open therm. How do I get these apps back to my home screen?

My apps are not showing on my home screen after the new iOS 6 update. They are in my iCloud but it only gives me and option to open. How do I get these apps back on my home screen?

Do you have an Restrictions set that would hide the apps? Settings>General>Restrictions
Have you used the Spotlight search? Maybe you just can't find them.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

I have always used the same computer to update both of our iphones , welll with this last one it changed my husbands apple account to mine , how do I get that change back, I looked on support but there is nothing l can find to address that issue

He still has money on his account, and plus it is just one more password and all. The information on his phone is all the same, thank god I didn't lose his phonebook or anything.
I have always updated the phones on the same machine, he is also upset on all the changes this last update did. He doesn't like change.
Anyone know how I can contact apple just about an apple id question. I wish they had live chat at least

Now I feel dumb, once I posted this it brought up others like it and tada there it was , just sign out and then sign back in on the other account. Learn somthing new everyday. Just would like to know why it signed into my account when it never did before....

My iPhone is requesting to sync with icloud, but it is using on old ID and password. How do I delete the old ID and password?

My iPhone is requesting to sync with icloud, but it is using on old ID and password. How do I delete the old ID and password?

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

I have an iphone4 and my husband merge his numbers with mine and i think it was deleted can you tell me how can he get his number back on his phone

Do you possibly mean the contacts have been merged?
If so, where are each of you syncing contacts? A supported application on the computer? iCloud or another cloud service? An Exchange server?
WIthout details, it's difficult to offer specific resolutions.

Please, help me :)

Your best bet would be to try resetting the password to the account that you would like to use via iForgot
Once you log in to that account change the email address to anything, it can even be fake its just a placeholder
After you do that you will be free to change your old email address on your appleID to the new one that is now free to be used as it is no longer attached to the other account.

HT1657 Hi, I rented a movie off iTunes but the there is no sound. I've bought and rented previous movies and I've never had any problems with the sound before. Is this some kind of glitch? How can I get my money back?

Hey grossa2,
First, here is a way to report an issue with your purchase:
How to report an issue with your iTunes Store, App Store, Mac App Store, or iBooks Store purchase
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1933
Then, I'd go through this article, which helps troubleshoot a lack of audio playback in iTunes:

Take care,

My new iPad is synced with iTunes but now it won't recognize my iPod nano. How do I get it to recognize both? iTunes synced with my Nano just fine until I added the iPad.

Hi ladwwd56,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Is it possible that you may have an Accessibility feature called "White on Black" turned on?
See page 244 of the iPhone User Guide PDF:
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1539/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.p df
White on Black
Use White on Black to invert the colors on the iPhone screen, which may make it easier to read the screen. When White on Black is turned on, the screen looks like a photographic negative.
Invert the screen’s colors: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility and tap the “White on Black” switch.
If that is not the case, try restarting / resetting the iPhone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If that does not resolve the issue, refer to page 146 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:
iPhone User Guide for iOS 7

I purchased a song almost two years ago and the song is no longer present in my library, but it is listed on itunes store as purchased. How do I get this song back?

I purchased a song almost two years ago and the song is no longer present in my library, but it is listed on itunes store as purchased.... How do I get this song back?

@caragam, if the songs are no longer in your purchase history it means either they have been hidden or the original items are no longer available for sale on the iTunes Store or you are logged into the store with a different Apple ID.
To see if they have been hidden in iTunes pull down Store > View my AppleID. Enter your password when prompted. In the middle of the screen, click "view hidden purchases." See if the purchased items are here. If they are unhide them and go back to your purchase history and re-download them.
If the purchases are not hidden and you do not have a backup then the songs are gone and there is no way to recover them. This is why we keep backups.
If you used a different Apple ID to purchase the song, log out of the store and log in with the appropriate Apple ID and download the song. Be aware this could trigger a 90 day lock out of the other store account so make sure you really, really want that song.

While backing up my iPhone 4 with iCloud, it stated the update was completed, but I had a few more steps to follow. This is where I messed up. I hit continue and got stuck to choose a network. I have Verizon, so when I selected Other, I got stuck!

I was backing up my iPhone using iCloud. It stated the update was completed and to select continue. Now I have to choose a Network??? I am with Verizon, not Wi-Fi, even though we have Wi-Fi for my laptop. Selecting other asks for Network Name and Security. I am lost! I cannot get out of it!

Assuming the phone isn't jailbroken, the basic steps (as needed) are:
Restart phone (you already did this)
Reset phone
Restore phone in iTunes using a backup
Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup
See appendix B of the User Guide for details
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf
If your phone is jailbroken, this is the most frequent cause of the problems you described. Restoring could permanently brick the phone.
Note that your iOS is old and the current version is 4.2.8. It's odd that it wasn't updated when your activated your phone in iTunes, being that you got it last Friday.

I recently updated my iPhone 5 with the latest update. when it restored, it deleted about 90 photos. how do i get them back if the phone wasn't backed up

please please help. today i tried to update my iphone 5 with the most recent update and it crashed. i had to restore it but i noticed that about 90 of my photos were deleted. i didnt back the phone up but i need to recover those photos. how can i do it?

If it's in recovery mode, the data is already gone. Why did you never back up your important data?

Got a new iPad and set up to sync with iCloud and now asking for password which I never set. How do I get on device if I don't know what it thinks password is?

Help. I just got a new iPad 2 and set up sync with iCloud and no password. Now asking for a password and I never set one up. What password does it want: iTunes, iPhone (no real password there either). Tried as many passwords as I could think with the iPad locking me out since I don't have the password! Would like to use the iPad but can't get on to try it.
Thanks.
Desparate

So I guess it will only be new apps that I download that are allowed to give me their updates while 13 updates wait for me on an ID I can no longer access.
Yes... sorry.
In the future, if need be, you can re download your purchases for free > Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Good rule of thumb is to back up your purchases regardless > Mac App Store: Backing up your app purchases
