ICloud deleted my contacts but i can still see them when i search for them when im texting... how do i get my contacts back?
I tried out iCloud today and it took away all my contacts...and no i did not set up time machine
when i searched online to see what the problem was all i got was "back up the device" or "turn the contact button off and on in iCloud and then hit merge"
I did all of that but my Wi-Fi at my college ***** whale so i cant "merge" my contacts even though im pretty sure backed it up already 2 times with the contacts switch in the on position meaning that my contacts must be gone...
but theres hope when i was texting i searched a name in the "contact search bar" and all my contacts are still there!
soo someone please help me get to the next step for getting them back before i go insane! thanks!
this just rearanges the icons in the same order but with the screen still set up with only 16 icons an the bottom 4 (muisc mail...) missing are there any other ways i can get them back?

I have deleted all my photos off iPhone but can still view them on appletv . How do I get them back on my phone?
If you have deleted all the photos from your iPhone you can't get them back. The only place they might exist is if you backed them up to iPhoto if you have a Mac. If you have iCloud and Photo Steam enabled, then the last 100 photos would be saved in your Photo Stream.

I just upgraded itunes. And now I cannot see my iPads or iPod in the left margin of itunes? But I can still see them in my Windows Explorer?
Hey there MattSK123,
Thank you for your question. It sounds like you are unable to see either of your devices in the sidebar of iTunes after a recent update. A number of issues could cause this type of behaviour, and would recommend starting with the troubleshooting from the article named:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1538
If the issue is not resolved, I would next re install iTunes from either of the following articles depending on the version of Windows you have:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
Or
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows XP

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

how do i delete old apps from my icloud? I can still see them when i go to not on this device, and I don't want them there anymore.
Remove documents from iCloud
You can remove documents stored in iCloud by deleting them from any of your devices that have iCloud set up for Documents & Data. Removing your documents from iCloud reduces the amount of iCloud storage space you’re using.
Remove iCloud documents from your iOS device
Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage.
Under Documents & Data, tap the app that has a document you want to delete, then tap Edit.
Remove iCloud documents from your Mac
Open iCloud preferences, then click Manage.
Select an app on the left, then select one or more documents on the right.
Click Delete (below the list of apps).
You can also remove documents from iCloud by moving them to your Mac with OS X v10.8 or later. For instructions, use go to the Finder on your Mac, choose Help > Help Center, then search for “save documents.” -
I was looking at this iPod 5 on Ebay earlier and in the description it said iCloud locked. I've heard of iPhones being cloud locked but you can still use them as a regular iPod touch, that's what my sister does. But what does it mean when an iPod is cloud locked? Can I not do certain things? I would just like to know this in case I decide to buy. Thanks.

i synced my iphone 5 with my computer and save all the photos to my phone through itunes. i restored my mac and lost all my photos on the mac but i still have them on my phone. how do i get them on my new mac now?
how do i get them on my new mac now?
Be careful, when you connect the iPhone to your mac, unless you have saved the photos. Synced photos may easily be accidentally deleted by syncing again. And do not enable iCloud Photo Library (Beta), that will erase synced photos as well. Synced Photos are not included in the device backups.
Set your iTunes Preferences to "Devices > Prevent iPos, iPhones, iPads from syncing automatically". Otherwise iTunes may launch and sync your iPhone with an empty iPhoto library the moment you connect it.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to sync the synced photos back. Apple recommends to mail them back, but that would be a lot of clicking (iTunes: Syncing photos - Apple Support). You could also share them to a Shared Album, but a third party app like TD recommended, will be better. -
My pictures are there but i can't see them.
I went on iphoto to put on some picutres from my digital camera and the pics went on the computer fine but as i was editing the pics iphoto began to work really really slow. so i restarted and went back on but it's was still really really slow. now besides the fact that it's slow, when the program does show up my pics are there but i can't see them, all there is, is the outline of the box where the pics are but no pictures. i'm not sure if i got a bad file or a bug. so if anyone can help me out that would be great.
Hi Ryan,
If you can give more information it would be great.
What kind of camera do you have?
What version of iPhoto are you running?
How much free space is on your HD?
You can try a rebuild to see if that might help. Get back with results.
Try this:
Before doing a rebuild make sure iPhoto's trash bin is emptied. You can do this by control clicking on the trash bin, or from the menu bar under iPhoto.
Close iPhoto
Duplicate the iPhoto Library folder
Drag the duplicate to the desktop (hopefully you have enough room on your hard drive for the duplicate.)
Launch iPhoto holding down the Command and Option keys until you see the rebuild options screen.
Choose the first three options. If you were missing photos in your library, also choose the last option. Be advised that you will get a roll of orphaned photos and it might be quite huge. Most of them will already be in your iPhoto library, but use caution when deleting anything from this roll until you are sure the photos are still in your library in another place. It might be a good idea to share/export this roll of photos just in case you need to import them again.
Back to the rebuild, depending on the size of your library it might take some time. When it is done, hopefully your photos will be there.
You might see some unexpected results as I did when I did a rebuild. Photos had been moved to wrong dates, video clips had lost their duration info and some were even orphaned from the jpg pointer file. It took me some time to straighten it out again.
This is the reason to make a duplicate before you rebuild, in case you do not like the result. If you don't like the result, close iPhoto, then delete the rebuilt library and drag the duplicate back into the Pictures folder making sure the name is iPhoto Library. Launch iPhoto and it should open the library in the Pictures folder.

I am sad, I have days trying to use Airdrop, my friends can see me, but I can not see them. I turned on my Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and I selected the option "available for ALL".... and nothing. I can receive photos from my friends... mean It work for them. I just restarted the phone to the basics configuration but it does not work, my phone still does not recognize my contacts.
warranty will cover it. Did you try only by changing the power adapter or did you change both cable and power adapter?
if you did the latter, see this page: https://www.apple.com/support/iphone/repair/battery-power/
you'll be able to contact Apple Support from there. -
I just loaded some July pictures into my PC iCloud photos upload folder, but I do not see them with my iPad. Are they not shared because they are past the 30 day window, or is there a different issue?
Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
1. Right click images you want to share.
2. Select Export version.
3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
See how you go. -
Before I updated everything worked fine. This is thru safari on the full version of a website. Now after I enter my chat room and everyone can see me and what I type but I can't see them. I was on the phone with apple. 1st call, they had me empty cookies and cache, that didn't work. I did a hard reset? held the off button and the round button. that didn't work, but I was able to see one persons "hi" post. 2nd call they had me do a reset, thru the general in settings(I was also transferred to a supervisor which makes me think that I am the only one with this problem). I was able to see 5 people say hi, but still unable to see them after the intial.
I use to see the little pinwheel at the top left hand side next to ipad and the signal strength pinwheel all the time but now I don't see it doing that. While in the chat.
Any ideas. The supervisor sorta suggested tap-a-talk. But I didn't want to spend the money if I dont have to and Im not sure it would fix this..
I did notify the website the chat room is thru so they know also, but no answers yet.Hi
Have you set the Quicktime settings, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed set what you get from your ISP go no higher then 1.5mbps(dont use automatic)
In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to NONE.
Restart iChat.

My pictures are there but i can't see them help!!!
I need help i have iphoto 4 and something happened where it has the pictures there but i can't see them. Its 500 pictures in my libary but they are all blank put the outline of the picture and its shape. i imported new pictures and they show up but not my old ones please let me know what i did or how i can get them back also under photo library i have a sub folder titled recovered photos and recovered photos 1 but i don't have any options on how to recover them or get them back please help me i am very worried!
thanks lisaHere's a way to possibly preserve some of the roll information while importing the old library into a new one. With iPhoto 4 you have to remove the thumbnail files from the source library because V4 will import them as normal files and really mess up the new library. Here's how to go about it.
1 - duplicate the current iPhoto Library folder - (Command-D)
2 - run a search on just that folder as follows:
TIGER:
a. open the folder and type Command-F
b. set Kind is Images and Size is less than 100KB.
PANTER:
a. select the old iPhoto Library folder and type Command-F
b. set the search criteria to: Name contains "jpg" and Size is less than 100KB.
This will find all of the thumbnail files in your library.
3. select them all in the Search Results window and drag to the trash.
4 - open iPhoto with the Option key depressed and, when asked, create a new library.
5 - select the File->Import menu option. Go to the old library folder that you just cleaned out and select it. Click on Import.
That will import just your full size photos and keep some of the roll organization. You will also have the original files of those you edited previously in there. You may want to go thru and get rid of the original or edited version as you see fit.
Once you're satisfied you've go all of your photos safely in the new library you can delete the old one and the duplicate of it that you made.
Hope this has been of some help. Good luck.
