I restore my iphone with icloud but when I disconect the iphone i lose my contacts again what can i do?

I lost my contacts on my iphone 4, I've tried several times to restore them with a copy from icloud using itunes, once the iphone is restored i can see the contacts and use them  but when I disconect the iphone  the contacts are errased again. What can I do?

Have you checked the cable ? Try another one as well as the charger.  Look for any dirt or fluff in the docking port where the cable fits. If it still does not work, take it to an Apple store and get them to check it out.

  • HT4097 I'm having problems updating my apps, when I press updates, it's just a white screen, but when I push the featured or genius buttons, apps appear, what can I do?

    I'm having problems updating my apps, the screen just stays white....

    Go into Settings > General > International > Language and choose British English, then hit the Done button. The screen will go black with a comment about Language Settings. Be Patient, especially if you have a lot of apps. Let it run it's course and Then open the App Store again. Voila! Upgrade list is back. And it stuck when i changed back to plain English. He doesn't know why. I don't either. But I am now a happy camper. Worked on my 3rd gen iPad and iPad Mini.
    Hope it works for you!

    Back from where?
    You choose to not copy them off to a computer as they are designed to be.
    If they are no longer showing in iCloud, they are gone.

    My iphone 3gs says I need to restore my phone with itunes.  when i connect the phone it says i need to unlock the phone which i cannont due because of the caution on the phone.  How do i fix this?

    Hold down the power button and home button at the same time until the phone powers on, shuts back off, powers on again and continue to hold it until it shows the itunes logo to plug in to itunes. This should allow you to restore without unlocking it.

    The only way you will be able to track that iPod is if it is turned on and connected to a wifi network by the person that has it.

    hi what can i do if i receive an email with link but when I click the link my mail wont move anymore?

    Close the Mail app in the Task Bar and re-launch.
    Double-click the Home button to reveal Task Bar. Hold Mail app down for a second or two; tap the minus sign to close app.
    If it still doesn't work, try a reset.
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

    1. [email protected], you can go here to figure out your appleid/password, and reset if needed
    2. iCloud.com, you can go here to get your numbers, but you will need your id/password.

  • Every time I try to use internet, the application(firefox/safari/chrome) stop working but when I use the modem on windows it works great. whats the problem?

    every time I try to use internet, the application(firefox/safari/chrome) stop working but when I use the modem on windows it works great. whats the problem?

    I just spoke with Tesco technical support (having been transferred to them by Clubcard support), who told me that the problems people are experiencing when visiting the Tesco site via Safari aren't currently being addressed because "not enough people have called to complain about it".
    I asked what percentage of people he thought might make the effort to call instead of just giving up. He replied that he would be one of those who just gave up.
    So it would seem that if we would like the problem to be resolved, we each need to take a few moments to CALL TESCO and ensure our complaint is logged by the technical support team.
    Every voice helps

    Are you in the U.S?
    You can only buy from the itunes store of your country of residence ( verified by valid billing address on your payment info) and ONLY while inside the borders of that country.

    I have a 4th gen. Itouch wiht IOS4 and i want to update it, but when i click the update button in ITunes it says "contacting IPod software server" and it looks like it is loading. However, after about 5 seconds it stops and says "ITunes could not connect to the IPod software server". I found the apple webpage that is supposed to help me, but when i went to the LAN settings in the control panel i found that 'Automatically detect settings" was already checked. I do not know what to do, Please help.

    If yo mean the iPod will not connect to your wifi network:
    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Try:                  
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • What causes iPhone to lose all contacts, and how can I stop it happening again?

    iPhone 3gs, still running 5.1.1 because I actually rely on the mapping software.
    A few days back, it started randomly exiting various apps for no reason.  Today, I tried powering off and re-starting, but when it re-started it had erased all contacts.
    Last backup was a couple days before, so I won't have lost anything crucial, but this is the first such disaster since bying the phone 3 years ago.  I see numerous complaints about this, and no real solution or explanation offered from Apple.  I figure it's about time to replace my phone, so this will be a test: either there will be a clear explanation and a solution, or I'll switch to Android.

    What are you syncing them WITH? Do NOT say iTunes. iTunes is NOT a contact manager.
    If you're syncing them with your computer, your choices are MS Outlook or Windows Address Book on a PC, and Contacts / Address Book on a Mac.
    If you are not syncing your contacts with a contact manager or cloud service, you are NOT syncing your contacts.
    See this document: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4946
    Particularly this item and disclaimer:
    Contacts* and Contact Favorites (regularly sync contacts to a computer or cloud service such as iCloud to back them up).
    * Your contacts are part of the backup to preserve recent calls and favorites lists. Back up your contacts to a supported personal information manager (PIM), iCloud, or another cloud-based service to avoid any potential contact data loss.

  • Daily I receive a question for updating my Firefox (s.6.17 MacOs), but when I agree the result is Or no contact with the update-server

    Daily I receive a message for updating my Firefox (3.6.17 MacOs 10.6.8) but when I agree, it takes quite a long time and then OR a message: no contact with the update-server OR something like: Sorry we cannot find xxxxx(?!).
    QUESTION: HOW TO UPDATE?
    [By the way: what about version 8.0! Is that perhaps for mobile-systems?
    With regards, Jan Stevens.

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
    *Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    *Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

  • I may have totally screwed myself but...after installing Yosemite without checking first, my CS4 Design Premium suite wouldn't open. So I deinstalled it, but I only have disks for my old CS3. When I got the CS4 upgrade I downloaded it. What can I do??

    I may have totally screwed myself but...after installing Yosemite without checking for potential problems with Adobe software, my CS4 Design Premium suite wouldn't open. So after consulting some forums, I deinstalled it, but I only have disks for my old CS3. When I got the CS4 upgrade I downloaded it, back in 2011... What can I do?? Everything was fine before I upgraded that *#$%* Yosemite.
