i lost my stored contact from my iphone after upgrading ios 6

I've had the same issue. I forgot how i resolved it but i think it has something to do with iCloud and sync in your contacts.

Dear Sir,

There are two ways to have photos on the iPhone. First is the camera roll, these are the pictures you have taken with the iPhone camera. The second are pictures that are synced to the iPhone through iTunes from the computer you sync with.
The pictures in the camera roll are designed to by imported to the computer just like photos taken with any digital camera. They are not designed to be only stored on the iPhone.
If you imported the pictures to the computer or performed a backup of the iPhone prior to the attempt to upgrade software on the phone,all you need to do is restore from a backup. If you did not create a backup, you can look for the last backup you made if the pictures would have been included in that backup. Unfortunately, in that last case, you will also lose everything you have done since that backup.
If you have been backing up or syncing with iCloud, the pictures should be there. If you have not done any of the above, the pictures are lost.

I got an Icloud account and lost all my contacts from my Iphone 3s. how do I get them back?

I had to change my icloud account and all of my contacts disappeared from my phone contacts.
How do I get them back???? I lost hundreds of important personal and business contacts.
I tried to sync it when I got home with my Mac, but still all of my contacts are gone.
Where the heck are they? Why did they go? How can I get them back?

Do you have an iCloud back up as well? If so restoring from there may be an option

I lost all my contacts from my iphone

I used iphone explorer to install ipa files and third party themes and applications in my iphone.
But during deleting a folder in directory var/mobile/library,,,,some important folders got deleated and
when i used my iphone i got to know that all my contacts,messages and notes were deleted.
I searched the net for the solution and got to know about Iphone backup extractor. I installed iphone backup
installer on my pc and tried to get back my contacts by extacting itunes backup files. Meanwile i connected
my iphone to my pc and itunes sync started. Due to this i lost the itunes backup files in which contacts were
saved and new itunes backup files got saved in itunes backup folder. When i treid to extract backup using
iphone backup extractor, it extracted the latest backup and i still diddn't get my contacts and messeges. Then
i tried to restore my iphone through itunes,,it also restored the iphone to the new backup files.
My contacts are very urgent. I need them at any cost
NOW ANYONE CAN HELP ME.
PLEASE GIVE SOME SOUTION.
I AM WAITING

you are right that itunes backupo folder contains few backups not only the recent one.
but i am unable to read or extract the second last backup files which i actually want.
My iphone last sync took place on 2nd May 2011,,,,and my itunes backup folder contains
backup files of date 2nd MAy 2011,,,,25 April 2011 ,,,and a few more dated till 2nd April...
Now only backup files of 2nd May 2011 are accesible,,,,,,but i want to access backup files
of date 25 April 2011 because these are backup files of the sync when i had all my contacts
, messeges and notes.
DO YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTION NOW??
BUT THANKS ONCE AGAIN MUNAS ,,ATLEAST U LISTENED TO ME!!

Cannot send email from my iPhone after upgrade to iOS7?

Since I did the first upgrade I receive my incoming email on my iPhone but for outgoing email it gives me a message that the username or password is wrong for SMTP.live.com

Try removing the account, and add it again..
If it still persist, contact the server provider of the email, and ask for the proper info to set it up.

hi me kashif Hello people,
I lost all my contacts on my iPhone. Facebook contacts integration is turned off. When I got to know that I have no contacts on my iPhone. I checked my settings and iCloud backup and contacts on iCloud (in settings) were off.
Is there a solution to get all my contacts back? Please help me. I want my contacts back, as soon as possible.
Thank you in advance.

Unless as part of a backup, or stored somewhere else, they are gone.
Your son needs his own Apple ID for iCloud, FaceTime & iMessage. He can continue to use yours for iTunes content, but for everything else, he needs his own.
When you did what you did, as far as iCloud knows, this is the same person with multiple devices, and that's they way things are supposed to work: keep everything in sync.

How can I remove all my outlook contacts from my iphone contacts

Well, Thats was the first time I`ve used Icloud, so I don`t have much experience, and I just active Icloud on my devices and I dont know why all my outlook contacts went to my iphone contacts. How can I remove it on a easy way otherwise I would delete them one by one and that wont be nice, because are too many.
Sincerely
Pedro

Depending how many contacts you started with and where they were from? were they on your sim card before? to remove ALL contact from an iPhone go to iTunes / info un-tick Sync Contacts and change Outlook to another addrss book that has nothing stored in it (ie. empty) sync your phone with that and that will leave your phone with no contacts. Next look for the backup where you had your previous contacts loaded (group) and re sync it to put them back. Chech iTunes when you plug in your phone that it doesn't sync immediately when you plug it in to eliminate future problems.

HT1386 i lost all my contacts in my iphone 4 how to sync conacts

i lost all my contacts in my iphone 4 how to sync conacts through itunes

Two way:
- If they are in the calender ap/program on the computer just sync them from there back to the iPod.
- Restore the iPod from backup. Make sure that autosyncing is off otherwise, when you connect the iPod to the computer iTunes will backup the iPod without the contacts. To turnoff go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices anbd change the box that says: Prevent iPods....syncing".

How can I bulk delete contacts from my iPhone 4S? I've imported them from gmail and hotmail and there are many more than I need. Deleting them one by one will take ages, there must be a quicker way! Also, do contacts take up space on the phone or are they stored remotely?
Thanks.. J

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

How to save contacts FROM an iphone 3GS

My main computer with which my iphone has been synced (grammar?) has irretrievably died. I have backups of most of my music, apps etc. can be downloaded again but I have about 500 contacts on my iphone which I need to keep and save on my new iMac. Not surprisingly when I plug in the iphone iTunes asks me if I want to erase it and sync with the new computer. Presumably if I do this then all my contacts will be lost.
Is there some program I can use to save my contacts from the iphone to the Mac and then re-sync them back again onto the iphone?
Thanks

The iphone, by design, will sync itunes content with ONE computer at a time. Any attempt to sync such content with a second computer will result in ALL itunes content being first erased from your phone & then replaced with the content from the second computer. That's what the message means you're getting. Since you've backed up your itunes library & added such to your new computer, this won't be a problem. Regarding your contacts & other data, do the following:
If you restore all of your data(photos, music, apps) to your new computer, including your itunes library, you'll be OK. Remember, the itunes library sync is one way, computer>phone. Same with photos not in your camera roll, one way, computer>phone. Just do the following:
1. Disable auto sync when an ipod/iphone is connected under preferences in itunes.
2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in Address Book & iCal. The entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
3. Connect your phone, itunes running, do not sync at this point.
4. Store>Authorize this computer.
5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on your phone will be in your itunes library).
6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
7. Right click again and select backup.
8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore your itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding your contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
Your phone should look exactly like it did when you started, but now you're syncing to your new computer.

Transfer contacts from 2 iphones to 1 iphone

Hi,
I have 2 iphones viz. 3G and 2G. I have a backup of my iphone 3G contacts with me in an excel format. Now, the 2G already has about 200 contacts in it. What I would like to do is add the 200 new contacts from my excel spreadsheet to the 2G Iphone.
So, this way, my 2G Iphone will have 400 contacts (200 originally and 200 from the Iphone 3G).
Is there a way to seamlessly do this? I don't want to lose the contacts on my Iphone 2G. So, I am a bit scared of moving ahead with any process.
Please help! Thanks...
Regards,
~Amit Vithal Rampurkar

Manually 350 numbers won't be the 1st option for me I believe
For the 2nd option, which address book are you talking about? I am using Windows 7. So, are the contacts stored in the outlook address book or some excel file?
(sorry but I have never backed-up any contacts into any address book and so on)
Also, when I will connect my iphone to sync the contacts for the first time, initially, I would want the contacts from my iphone to go to the address book and then after I merge all the contacts, it should go from the address book back to my iphone.
So, for the above, which sync options should I select. I am just trying to make sure that iTunes won't wash away my Iphone's contacts while syncing it to the address book. Thanks a lot for your help!

How do I get all contacts from my iphone 4 to icloud?

how do I get all contacts from my iphone 4 to icloud? I've just got some of them.

All you have to do is enable iCloud on your phone and turn notes on. They should automatically appear on your phone.
