I deleted my icloud acct by accident and now i lost my contacts list

I deleted my icloud account by accident and I lost all my contacts can I get them back?

If you "deleted" the icloud account from a device, just go to Settings>icloud and log back in using the same ID and password.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Do you have a back up taken prior to deleting them.
To restore from a back up made through iTunes, follow these instructions.
To restore from a back up made through iCloud, try the following:
The difficulty in restoring iCloud data from a back up is that the back up is older than the current version on iCloud and anything that is restored gets removed again when an iCloud sync occurs.
Ensure the device is connected to your local network.
Start the restore from iCloud back up.
Allow the devices settings to restore (watch for the confirmation of completion).
As the apps begin to restore pull the connection to your router WAN port (the one that goes to the telephone point).
Wait for the time out confirmation.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn off contact syncing (keep contacts when prompted).
Reconnect the router to the internet and let the restore process complete.
Delete any iCloud contacts from iCloud.com on a computer.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn on contact syncing (merge contacts when prompted).
May I suggest that you carry out a back up to iTunes before you try anything, that way should things become even worse, you can at least restore back to where you are now.

TS4147 I down loaded icloud and we have one apple account and both my husband and i down loaded it on our iphones and now i have his contact list. I want to get rid of it wondering how I go about it?

My husband and I both downloaded icloud on our Iphones. We have one apple account. Now I have all of his contacts, and I don't want them, how can I get my phone to show only my contacts?

Welcome to the Apple community.
You both need your own iCloud accounts. I would set up the second iCloud account and get all the data showing in both accounts, before trying to delete anything. You will need to delete the unwonted contacts and appointments etc manually.

I lost all my contacts i havent backed it up on computer or icloud i synced it with my macbook and accidently deleted them all off my macbook and now its gone of my phone!! help me

You'll have to restore them from the most recent backup you made before you deleted them.
When computers and iOS devices are "synced" together, whatever you do on one device is synced to the others. You deleting them off your Dads phone made the same occur on your phone. That's how it is supposed to work.

I have a I phone 4. I recently changed carriers to straight talk it was working fine but I deleted the vpn file on accident. Now I can't get cellular data. Does anyone know how I can reinstall that file or download it somewhere?

I own a I phone 4. I recently changed my service from AT&T to Straight Talk. It was working fine but then I deleted the vpn file on accident. Now when I try to get on line I get a message that I am not signed up with a cellular data network. Does anyone know how I can retrieve or download the vpn file?

I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

I recently saved my contacts in iCloud and now all of my contacts are on my daughters phone. I only wanted them saved to my PC. Why did this happen and how can I fix it? Is it because she downloaded the update to her phone?

Your daughter must have signed into your iCloud account, perhaps when she updated her phone. You can confirm this by going to Settings>iClloud on her phone and seeing if she is using the same iCloud ID.
To fix this you would need to migrate her phone to a separate iCloud account. To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos that she wishes to keep on your phone to her camera roll by opening her my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tapping the share icon (box with upware pointing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.
Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and provide the password when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone. This only deletes the account from her phone, not from iCloud; it won't effect your device(s). When you delete the account you will be asked if you want to keep or delete the iCloud data from her phone. If she needs to migrate a copy of the data to her new account, choose Keep; otherwise, choose Delete. Then sign back in with a separate Apple ID to create her new account and if migrating data to the new account, choose Merge when prompted.
Once she is on a separate account, if she migrated a copy of the data to her new account you can go to icloud.com from your computer, sign into her new iCloud account and delete your data from her account.

I have a iPhone 5. In usage, it says i have 2.1 gigs used because of photos and camera. I have deleted all my photos via iPhoto and now reset the phone back to factory settings in order to try to solve this problem, to no avail. Help!

I have a iPhone 5. In usage, it says i have 2.1 gigs used because of photos and camera. I have deleted all my photos via iPhoto and now reset the phone back to factory settings in order to try to solve this problem, to no avail. Both iTunes and the phone say that 2.1 gigs are being used, even though the phone now has nothing on it. What is going on?

Yeah it works fine over wifi the problem is when I try to use it over my 3G. It's really stressing me out now.

I hit some key or tab by accident and now my bookmarks are no longer in a list but viewable across a set of pages that I can scan left to right. I would like to go back to the other display which is much easier for me. Thanks for the help.

I’ve got a new MacBookair11 2weeks ago and I am very happy with it. Today I’ve tried to synchronize it via icloud with my ipad and I have lost the camera.
Looking through help in internet I found out that I had to reset the SMC. I did exactly as per instructions given but with no luck.
Is there any other solutions that will fix my camera for facetime and iphoto?
Thanks for your help

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can turn Find my Phone on/off in settings > iCloud.

Husband logged into iCloud on my computer and now my stuff is being synced with his.

Figure what out?
If it is not connected to wi-fi or it is off, then you cannot play a sound or locate it.
There is nothing more you can do other than look for it.

Did you retrieve it from the trash, or are you trying to open it while in the trash?
If it's become corrupted you'll need to reinstall the OS to be sure of repairing it properly. If you're on 10.6 that won't affect your accounts and data, but as you don't mention what OS you have we can't give specific advise on the install.

Contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
