Your Contacts should be in the Application you use for this on your computer...
Conect to your Computer and Re-Sync...

  • My itunes is asking for a kind of pasword while I am trying to backup my phone as it lost my contacts after an update of the software yesterday?

    My itunes is asking for a kind of pasword while I am trying to backup my phone as it lost my contacts after an update of the software yesterday? As I remember i never set a pasword and even if I have one pas for mos of the things but its not working. Why apple have to set a pasword for me, and why the haven't let the chance to reset the pas if forgoten? If someone have any clue how to fix this please let me know.

    if you cant remember the password of your back-up encryption, you can't back it up
    You will have to restore as a new phone

  • I'm using the icloud for my contacts and calendar. My contacts will not update when I sync my Ipad or Iphone with Itunes. Isn't the Icloud supposed to push to all devices

    I'm using Icloud for my contacts and calendar. The contacts on the Icloud will not sync updated to my Iphone and Ipad. My calendar does sync correctly. Why is this happening?

    Syncing contacts and calendar events over the air with an iCloud account has nothing to do with syncing with iTunes.
    On your iPhone go to Settings > iCloud.
    If Contacts is turned on for over the air syncing, turn it off. A warning message and prompt will be provided asking about what to do with the previously synced contacts with iCloud. Select Delete from iPhone. After all contacts are deleted from your iPhone, turn Contacts back on for over the air syncing. After all contacts are downloaded, confirm the contacts on your iPhone match your online contacts with iCloud.
    If so, repeat this with your iPad.

  • Lost my contacts after installing update 5.0 how do i retrieve it

    can anyone help me.

    You need to turn off synching through the iCloud and synch through iTunes to your Outlook of Address Book however this will still leave you with linked/duplicate contact cards in your phone and your favorites contacts in the phone as well as all caller id photos etc. will be linked to the old contacts.  In order to get rid of those contacts what I did was added the simple change to the contacts I synched from the computer (I added an exclamation point to the notes sections).  Then synch to your iPhone through iTunes not through the iCloud, then search your iPhone for the first contact name you have in your list.  You will see this will bring up 2 contacts for the same person.  Select either contact then hit the back button.  You will then be in the contact list but you will see in this work around there will be 2 contacts listed for everyone.  Select the contact card and then delete it that does not have the added change so you can tell what is new and old.  This will leave you with the new contact cards and remove the corrupted/lost contacts.  You will lastly need to turn on the iCloud synch and either leave or remove those changes you made (like my exclamation points) from your new contacts.  This is a pain in the tail but the only way I was able to completely fix the issue.
    Good luck!

  • Lost my music and contacts after ios5 update, can I get them back?

    I lost my pictures (still on computer though), my music, and my contacts after I updated to ios5. I'd like to know if there is a way to get them back on my phone. I had a lot of music that I had purchased.

    All you should have to do is to make sure Music is synced (Music tab in iTunes).
    While yu are at it, if you have WiFi at home, check the Sync from Wifi box on the Summary iTunes page and then plug in your iPhone and sync.

    Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are not synced. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are not touched with the iTunes sync process. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can be imported by your computer which is not handled by iTunes. Most importing software includes an option to delete the photos/videos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete. If is my understanding that some Windows import software supports importing photos from the Camera Roll, but not videos. Regardless, the import software should not delete the photos/videos from the Camera Roll unless you set the app to do so.
    Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are included with your iPhone's backup. If you synced your iPhone with iTunes before the videos on the Camera Roll went missing and you haven't synced your iPhone with iTunes since they went missing, you can try restoring the iPhone with iTunes from the iPhone's backup. Don't sync the iPhone with iTunes again and decline the prompt to update the iPhone's backup after selecting Restore.

    Do you regularly back up your phone with iCloud or iTunes on your computer?
    Do you sync contacts with a cloud service or app on your computer?

  • HT5278 I lost a screen after this update, does anyone know how to fix this?

    I lost a screen after this update, does anyone know how to fix this?  Update iOS 5.1.1  It used to have three screens with icons on them, now only 1.

    No offence, but as with quite a few others, my Iphone stopped charging on mains after iOS 7.0.4 update too.
    Not sure you can categorically advise that "it simply is not a software issue" when so many different people are having the same symptoms after updating their iOS   Just have a quick Google!
    Luckily my (original Apple) cable will still allow recharging via USB to a laptop. So, process of elimination would point to a bricked charger that was working faultlessly up until the iOS 7.0.4 update was applied. Seems quite a stretch to be a coincidence.
    Look forward to an explanation ..... and an update? ......

  • LOST MY CONTACT DURING SOFTWARE UPDATE

    I LOST MY CONTACTS DURING SOFTWARE UPDATE A WEEK AGO , TRIED TO RESTORE FROM MY LAST BACK UP HELD ON MAY 16, BUT FAILED , AM EVEN SURE I'V SELECTED ALL DATA BACKUP FOR ANY OF MY PREVIOUS BACKUP , TRIED TO RESTORE FROM ANY BUT FAILED , TRIED THE GMAIL CONTACTS ALSO FAILED , WONDERING WHERE MY CONTACTS I'VE SAVED FOR MORE THEN 10 YEARS ARE GONE ....AM TOTTALY DISSAPOINTED SINCE AM A BLACKBERRY USER SINCE 5 YEARS ,  ALWAYS SUPPORTED  BLACKBERRY AGAINST IPHONE USERS , ALL MY FREINDS ARE NO MORE USING BLACKBERRY AND SWITCHED TO IPHONE OR SAMSUNG , AM HAVING AN EMPTY BBM LIST NOW , BUT  STILL SUPPORTING AND EVEN BOUGHT THE Z10 FIRST WEEK OF RELEASE , I WOULD UNDERSTAND THAT A TECHNICAL PROBLEM HAPPENED DURING THE SOFTWARE UPDATE , BUT CANT UNDERSTAND THE USELESS BACK UP I'VE ALWAYS DOING ! AND THE WORSE IS THAT LAST SOFTWARE UPDATE TURNED THE Z10 TO A WORSE MOBILE.

    Hum, it is worrying...
    So... your contacts seem to be on:
    Gmail,
    your previous backups.
    -Solutions:
    if all your contacts are on Gmail: copy them manually on your device,
    they are a priori all in your backups: wait that Link won't be in Beta anymore, and then restore.
    P.S.:
    You make backups and don't register your contacts on SIM, is it possible ? Personally, I rarely register contacts on SIM. If there is a malware, it can be charged from the SIM to the Phone, this is why.

    The friend who sold it to you needed to clear his Apple ID off the phone before he sold it to you. Of course if it wasn't his phone in the first place then he could not do so. He is your friend but you don't know where he is?
    There is nothing that will help you short of getting the password for the Apple ID from your friend. If you cannot obtain that there is no workaround.
