I just lost all my contacts on the ipod2 ...how do I get them back? They just disappeared while I was typing in a new contact. Help!!
joephilipose,
If the contacts are still in Address Book on your computer, but just not on the phone, you can tell iTunes to force replace the contacts on your phone with those from your computer. You can do this by going into the Info tab when your iPhone is connected, and checking the Contacts box under the Advanced section at the bottom of the page.
You may also want to backup your Address Book information as well. It's a good idea to make periodic backups of your contact and calendar information in case information accidentally gets deleted or changed. You can find out how to backup your Address Book data here:

To backup your iCal information, follow the steps in this article:

Hope this helps,
Jennifer B.

I was trying to update my Iphone and lost all my music on the PC how do I get the music back on my phone?
Connect in recovery mode and restore, as described in this article:

Uploaded them from Pottermore from my home computer, then to the Ipad, Now with recent upload all my books are gone. How do I get them back? Any ideas guys!
You have the files on your computer? If so, then just get them back into iTunes and sync them back onto your iPad. You can use the books part of iTUnes, or if you reader app has a data transfer option, use that to sync them back onto your device.

how do i get a back up from my time machine?
i tried to load windows on my mac did not work had ti install snow lep all over again
i wanted to recover from my time capsule to recieve all my pics ect but when i go into time machine i have to set it all back up again how do i find my saved files from the last time it backed it up no dates or days nothing ?? have i lost all of my data???As you erased the drive and reinstalled Mac OS X, Time Machine detects it as a new OS X copy, so it's normal you can't see your old backups. To solve this, see > http://pondini.org/TM/E3.html
If you want to restore all your old data, use Migration Assistant instead > http://pondini.org/OSX/MigrateLion.html It will create a new user with your transferred files -
My "deleted" email is supposed to go into a holding area where I then have a second chance to save or delete for good. I use this method to temporarily save my current files while redirecting the older files to another account, then putting the "deleted" files back into the active account. When I did this the last time all the files were deleted permanently and I want to know why. How do I make sure this won't happen again? Because of this, I now have lost at LEAST $50.00 in pending rebates and over payments that were pending.
I have read a lot of suggestions concerning my problem, the thing is I don't have the option of Re-downloading and in the file menu when I get my library options I don't even have the option of backing up my movie, music, apps, and I don'tt have the Purchased option under my quick links for some unknown reason. Open itunes store Click "Purchased" under "Quick Links", simply does not work for me. I certainly would like to contact itunes support who would kindly granted me a one time re-download of my purchased music. But then don't answer my cry for help, so again I am stuck with nothing after I bought over 1000.00 dollars worth of movies, music, apps and I don' t have acces to any of it. Thank you Apple for making me feel like a valued customer,
Thank you all for your help but it just doesn't work 4 m2.

Lost all my emails in my inbox, how can I get them back
I am told I can contact Firefox and they can put them back. Is that so, and how do I contact Firefox?
Thank you for your reply.
I realized that if I went to Internet Explorer, I could get my emails back. You go to delete and there is a choice to recover deleted emails. When I did thatl 33 emails went into deleted. Then I just picked the ones that go into my inbox and delete the rest. -
Have lost all my mail folders on Thunderbird, how do i get them back?
I lost my second search window for Thunderbird Mail so went to VIEW, TOOLBARS and selected all three options - MAIL, STATUS and QUICK FILTER. I got my search window back that enables me to search my emails for messages from a specific person. However, I then lost all of my folders (mailboxes) in my inbox - everything from A to Z bar two folders titled ALFIE and APPLE MAC EMAILS.
These folders contain everything email like from my clients that is relevant to my business. Each folder is a client name and each contains any number of emails and replies.
I clicked the REPAIR FOLDER option in order to try and do exactly that, repair the folders but so far that only appears to have been applied to the emails in my inbox, the ones that have not yet been filed in the individual folders.
I moved to Thunderbird because I was told it was a safe and easy to use system but I am struggling with this aspect of it.
Any help gratefully received!No anti virus software running as far as I am aware, as in I didn't launch any before reinstating the search email function.
I was running a folder repair function on my inbox (which seemed to complete successfully for the emails in the inbox) when I noticed the majority of the mail folders had disappeared. -

I am furious....I dont want to optimize my browser for Yahoo.....and when I started my computer this morning, it started in Firefox without asking me, without my Walnut add on, and no tabs, of which I had many.....now I have the walnut add on, but am missing all my many tabs that I used every day....is there a place where they are stored? Why did this happen? Who said it was alright for Yahoo to step in and optimize for themselves? I dont want Yahoo search, I want Google search...
I think I found your backup ...
from Apple Support:
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.

I just backed my iPhone up and now I have lost all of my recent info. How can I get it back to how it used to be
Did you fail to import your photos before updating? If so, then they are likely gone. You can try restoring from backup. If that fails then they are gone. You should regularly import photos to your computer, most especially before any update.
Did you fail to transfer any purchases on iphone ( that were not on your computer) to your computer before updating? If so, then you will have to redownload:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -
I have an iphone and just upgraded to the iOS 5 and icloud, but now all my pictures are gone! How do I get them back?? It's weird because it said with the upgrade your photos would be kept, but apps would be erased, yet my apps synced over and not my pictures...
I have EXACTLY the same issue. I would appreciate the response also. Was not prepared for this.

All my contacts are wiped out, how do I get them back??
All my contacts are wiped out, how do I get them back? I tried to reboot my phone by turning it completely off and on again and that didn't help. I tried syncing to the compluter on itunes and that didn't help, and I tried calling AT&T and that didn't help. They said to make an appt. with Apple and hopefully they could help. They also said that 3 other people came in their store with the same issue this week. If someone out there knows how I could get contacts back on my phone please let me know. Thanks.
There are no contacts on or in iTunes. iTunes does not store contacts. iTunes can serve as the sync conduit to sync contacts between your iPhone and a supported address book app on your computer. This is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
Certainly you don't depend on an iPhone or any cell phone alone for such important data which can be lost or stolen, damaged beyond repair, or there can be a hardware or software problem preventing access to the contacts.
Windoze or Mac?
Your contacts are not available anywhere on your computer?
