I upgrade to Iphone software version 7.0.4.All of my photos and contacts are now missing.

I upgraded my iphone to the software version 7.0.4
since the upgrade all of my photos and contacts are missing.
Any suggestions on how to retrieve?

So, I guess my iPhone upgraded without me being aware. But nevertheless I am now running iOS 7.0.4.
I've noticed the last few days that I'm encountering sporadic contact disappearance. I'll get a text, the notification shows their name, maybe a few minutes later i'll go to read the full message and now no name, just a number. I'll look and ALL my contacts are gone. the conversation screen has nothing but numbers and the favorites under phone are just numbers. Search can still work by name though so the phone "knows" that joe is 555-5555, but is not showing the connection.
TEMPORARY WORKING FIX:
Turning off contacts in my icloud settings and choosing to delete the contacts on my phone, then re-enabling contacts will pull them all back down for me. This of course takes about 5-10 minutes for everything to sync back to the phone.
I've tried restarting the phone.
I've tried resetting the phone.
I don't feel like wasting my time with a backup unless I can downgrade to something before 7.0.4 as it is obvioiusly buggy.
I am NOT going to set up as a new phone until this becomes a much bigger problem.
I hope this offers insight to others encountering this bug. My mother has had this happen on her phone as well. Please comment at least if you experience this. the more people that have it, the less chance apple can play it off as an isolated event on my phone.

Deleted contacts on my imac and contacts are now missing on my iphone

I noticed that my iphone contacts have automatically appeared on my works imac, so quickly deleted them all today.
I did not know that my imac in work was synced to my icloud account and my iphone. Which has deleted my contacts on my iphone.
I tried to backup my iphone from an earlier backup from my home imac (not icloud) and the contacts are still not appearing.
I can find all the contact data on my imac via my library folder but do not know how to add them back onto my iphone.

I have tried that approach.
I have tried to backup from a previous imac backup (not icloud) and still nothing.
I found my contact data files within the source folder on my mac but cannot figure out how to add them to my contact app

HT4236 I was trying to Import photos to my computer and was asked to upgrade my Iphone before importing. In restoring my Iphone, it deleted all of my 200 new photos and they are now gone. Is there any way to retrieve them?

You should ALWAYS import all pics ( and anything selse for that matter) before any update.
If you failed to do this, then the pics are likely gone. You can try restoring from backup.

HT4236 If i had all of the photos and contacts backed up in my itunes but no longer have me iphone I how can I recover them?

if i had all of my photos and contacts backed up on my apple account, but no longer have my iphone how do i recover them?

Your question topic says you have all your photos backed up in iTunes. If so they are on your computer. When you get your new phone you can sync those photos from your computer to your phone.

How do I restore deleted contacts? I had backed up my iPhone on iCloud. Later used the application 'Contacts Duster' to delete or merge around 1900 contacts. Today I updated to iOS 7.1, after which I found many of my contacts are now missing. Please help!

I had backed up my phone on iCloud. Later (on 11March '14) I used the application 'contacts duster' to delete/merge nearly 1900 contacts. Today(ie 13 March '14) I updated to iOS 7.1 after which I noticed many contacts are now missing. Is there any way I can now restore my lost contacts? Also, can this be done without a backup computer?

Hi Thebuddies,
Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like some contacts have been lost. I know losing data can be stressful, and it's good that you had a backup in iTunes.
If you receive a message that there is not enough free space to restore the backup, I recommend going through the steps in this article:
If you can't back up or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod using iTunes - Apple Support
Start with "Copy your backup" and go through the steps including "Free up space."
Note that with this method, any content or data added to your iPhone since making the backup will be removed from the device.
Best Regards,
Jeremy

Photo Stream is not syncing all of my photos on my Iphone 4. I've checked all of my settings and they are all turned on, ready to go. Can anyone tell me why it would randomly miss a few photos please?

HELP!! I have been to several tech support sites and have checked all of the settings for my Iphone 4, which appear to be on the correct "on" position HOWEVER when syncing with Icloud/Itunes via my Windows PC (windows 7) the Photo Stream comes up short 4 or 5 photos. There are only 116 photos installed (plus 4 videos). Would someone kindly tell me what's wrong and what I need to do to correct his? PLEASE? This is driving me crazy & of course the photos that it aren't syncing are the important ones! THANK YOU!!!

WOW! That font is difficult to read. But, see if this support document helps you http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3989. Photos stream is based on date and photos more than 30 days old are removed. Photostream is designed as a temporary storage to allow you to download the photos to the computer.

I phone software update iphone software with another pc whit out lost my data and contacts

Does anyone even bother to search these forums or Google before asking questions? Apparently not...
Anyways, yes. Connect to the new computer, open iTunes and then "Store >> Authorize Computer", then sign into the store, then "File >> Transfer Purchases". Then sync your iPhone.

Photos and contacts will not sync from iCloud to iPhone

Hi Everyone
I have an iPhone 4 with the latest iOS (5.1.1), and have had to restore my phone due to sluggish response from the device, however I have had problems when setting up my phone again.
When the phone was restored and I wanted to restore a backup, it said the latest backup was from 10/12/2011 (I'm assuming this was the last time I backed up to iTunes). The issue I have is all my photos and contacts are on iCloud (last updated 25/05/2012, it clearly says this on my device under iCloud section). I have looked about to try and find a way to get this information back onto my iPhone but have not had any luck.
Can someone please help me find out how to get my photos and contacts from iCloud back onto my iPhone, having no contacts is a real pain! If anyone can help it would be really appreiciated!
MESSAGE TO APPLE: Your support is a complete joke, why should I have to pay for your assistance on clear design flaws with iCloud and its ability to sync with iOS enabled devices. Also you should really consider allowing people to download their photos / contacts via iCloud.com

me again everyone, I've managed to find my contacts on my iPhone. When I look under the contacts app it just says "no contacts", but if I look at the contacts tab via Phone they all appear, weird bug.
Still problems with my photos though

Is this the note you are referring to:
Not sure if this can help you.
I checked my notes. They are stored here:
MacintosHD/Users/MYHOME/Library/Containers/com.apple.notes/Data/Library/CoreData /ExternalRecords/
xxxxxserie.of.numbers.probably.yours.are.different/IMAPNote/_records/0/
If I go tot this window on finder and enter Time Machine I can go back and find old notes...
If so, am I doing this on my new hard drive on on the time machine? When I do this on the time machine, what is "my home"? Also, I am unable to find "containers".
If I go to users/jeff/library, then I see components, compositions, contextual, etc, but not containers.
Thanks

I am having trouble switching to iCloud. I've upgrade my iPhone software to iOS5, but when I try to upgrade my Macbook software OS 10.6.8 to Lion 10.7.2 it says I need "Core 2, Duo, Core i3, i5, i7, or Xeon processor. $$%^

I need HELP switching to iCloud. So many obstacles. . I've upgrade my iPhone software to iOS5 (now I have to get the software in my car upgraded because the iPHone won't play music through the system...another subject.) For iCloud on my Macbook, when I try to upgrade my Macbook software OS 10.6.8 to Lion 10.7.2 (required for iCloud) it says I need "Core 2, Duo, Core i3, i5, i7, or Xeon processor. Does this mean I need a new computer!!! I 2 Ghz Intel core duo is what I have (a 2006, really, macbook -- which I use with a large screen). (How do I find the answer here? -- any answers there would be SOOOO appreciated) thank you!

It's a bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it. You should not expect people to email you - this is an open forum.
I'm afraid your Mac cannot be upgraded to Lion, and thus is not compliant with iCloud. The only option you have there is to set Mail up manually to access your iCloud email, but the other facilities won't work.
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard

I upgraded the iphone software to 4.2.8 and none of the purchased apps would open. I then restored the software and now all those apps are GONE. How do I get them back?
