I recently synced my iPhone 4 and all of my contacts have disappeared. Help?

I tried to update my iPhone 4 and all of my saved contacts are no longer showing up. If I need to type a text message however, the contacts name will show up...where did they go?

They should be on your computer in whatever program you have chosen to  sync

    Don't understand your problem... Contacts sync with a compatible address book or cloud service. Contact records can contain names, addresses, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, notes, or any combination of these. If you have records you don't want in your address book that you don't want in your contacts, then segregate them into groups in your address book and only sync the group(s) you want. If you don't want them there at all, then delete them.

  • I just got a new iMac.  I set it up and all of my contacts have disappeared.  They have disappeared on my iPhone and my mac book air as well.  How do I get them back?

    All contacts have disapppeared from my iPhone, my mac book air and my new iMac.  How do I get back.  I assume it has something to with iCloud.  Thank you.

    Use your computer's backup to transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer per the instructions included with this link, or do the same with both computers networked in some fashion, which shouldn't be hard to do if both computers are connected to the same wireless network.

  • Hi! I have a library of around 1000 songs on my iTunes, I recently synced my phone and all was lost, my partner has the same songs on hers with a different sign in, but not backed up anywhere, any suggestion on how I can store her tunes in my account ???

    Hi! I have a library of around 1000 songs on my iTunes, I recently synced my phone and all was lost, my partner has the same songs on hers with a different sign in, but not backed up anywhere, any suggestion on how I can store her tunes in my account ??? Then sync them to mine? When I sign her phone into her account I get a message warning that if I sync the dogs on her phone will be replaced by the ones in the library! But as there are no songs there I'm reluctant to continue!!! Please help this non techi guy.!!!!!

    Hello Solid Buck,
    Thank you so much for providing the details about the duplicate song issue you are experiencing.  It sounds like you would like to remove the duplicate songs that will not play on your iPhone, but when you connect it to iTunes, iTunes only shows you one copy of the song on your iPhone. 
    In this situation, I recommend deleting the individual songs that do not play directly from your iPhone.  I found the steps to do this on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide (http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf):
    Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
    Sheila M.

    I recently synced my iPhone and now I cannot open my apps. When I touch the app, it quickly opens and then pops back to my home screen.

    Hello...I also have the same problem and cannot open some apps on my iPhone. I have tried downloading a free app but still this didn't help...rebooted phone etc..

  • I recently updated my OS and all of my contacts disappeared.

    I recently updated my OS and all of my contacts disappeared.  I plugged my phone back in to restore from the backup. When I did this, my phone starting syncing again and restored the new backup and set that as the backup...no contacts or text messages...please tell me there is a way to correct this.

    Where you synced your music there is a tab that says Apps. When you click your device on the left in itunes and it tells you the serial and phone number, just aboved hit the apps tab and choose to sync them again.

  • All of my contacts have disappeared.

    Woke up this morning and most of my contacts have disappeared. Any contact I entered directly to the phone is still there. Anything older or from Yahoo! mail is gone. Any ideas?

    If you sync to iCloud, turn off contacts and say "Keep contacts on your phone" and then turn it back on again and select "Merge" and you should get your old contacts back

  • Just updated my iPhone and all of my contacts are gone. What can I do to retrieve them?

    I updated my iPhone and it synced, downloaded, did something called restore, and told me I was finished. Now I have none of my original contacts. What can I do to get them back? I didn't click anything or answer any questions until the update was complete.

    Choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, provide /Users/ as the path, and move the files to your current home folder. Alternatively, open the Accounts or Users & Groups pane of System Preferences, unlock it, control-click your account, choose Advanced Options, and change the path to the home folder.
