ICloud replaced my contact list. How to revert to old contact list?

Two phones on my current apple account, both attached to iCloud: an iPhone 4 and an iPhone 4S.
Updated my iPhone 4 a week ago, allowed iCloud to sync all contacts. 
Just today(a week after the iOS update and iCloud settings), my contacts start disappearing from my contact list.  After a few hours they are all replaced with the contact list from the iPhone 4s. 
How do I go about reverting my contacts to the original contact list on my iPhone 4?

I had to upgrade my iphone 4 to a 4s because it was stolen, now (a day after the upgrade) someone elses contact list is in my phone.  Kinda the same situation but im wondering if you were able to get this resolved.  I would like my contact list back too.

  • I have a new iPhone to replace damaged phone.  How do I disconnect old phone from iTunes and iCloud

    How do delete a iPhone from my iTunes and iCloud?

    Hello cyndeefromcelina
    You can remove your Apple ID from a device by going to iTunes on your computer and then Sign In to view your account. You should then see and option that says Manage Devices and then you can remove it from the list.

  • Replacing time capsule. How do I reformat old one?

    I'm replacing my existing TimeCap with a new one. How do I zero out all data on the old device?

    The "Erase" function is set at default for "Quick Erase", which will only take a minute or two, but it is not secure.
    "Quick Erase" if fine to use if you plan to keep the Time Capsule yourself, but if another user will be using the product, you should use the "Zero Out" erase option.
    This is going to take some time....likely 4-6 hours or more depending on the size of the hard drive in the Time Capsule, so you might want to plan accordingly.

  • How to revert to old site name and link?

    I just created a disaster. I had several videos pages published and the ugly links are connected to an email autoresponder. I recently tried to clean up the title of the links from within iWeb by changing the default site name and the result was the URL for the links on each page were changed. Now the old links to the site doesn't work cuz the links are different cuz of the new site name. How can I revert back to the old name of the site so my old backlinks to the site work?

    Change the site name back to the original in iWeb and then republish the whole site.

  • How to revert back previous working files in InDesign CS6?

    I have suddenly replace wrong working files, how to revert back previous working files in InDesign CS 6?
    OS Mac version: 10.10.3
    InDesign CS6 version

    This feature does not exist in InDesign. You're best hope is that you have a backup of the previous file. Moving forward, you might want to try a free product called Radish that allows you to save versions and revert back to previous versions when needed. Here's a blog post I wrote about the product Story Versioning in InCopy | InCopySecrets.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Use your back up on your mac/PC and re-add your contacts to Address Book or whatever contact software you use.

  • I just purchased an iPhone 5 and my phone has many duplicate contacts on it.  I want to edit my contact list that's saved on the cloud and then replace the contacts on my phone with the edited list.  I have spent hours but no success yet.

    I just purchased an iPhone 5 and my phone has many duplicate contacts on it.  I want to edit my contact list that's saved on the cloud and then replace the contacts on my phone with the edited list.  I have spent hours but no success yet.

    Okay
    So when you edit in iCloud you are not seeing an update on your iphone?.  I just did a test in iCloud.com and it changed my iPhone contact list in less than 1 second.  So iCloud is functioning fine.
    If you delete all the contacts on your iPhone and if you are properly synced they will all be wiped out on iCloud.....ugh!  So let's not do that...
    Your plan should be to make all the changes in iCloud and have them flow down to your iPhone.  That sounds what you are trying to do anyway.
    So. if you delete a contact in iCloud or edit a contact in iCloud then you are not seeing the changes on your iPhone?
    If so then they are not properly synced..... but I wonder how you have any contacts in iCloud.
    Let me know if you are seeing any changes, if mot then we can review the syncing set-up.
    Cheers

  • How to I sync my iphone contacts to icloud without losing contacts?

    how to I sync my iphone contacts to icloud without losing contacts? I am afraid to turn "on" the button to sync to the cloud because I am not sure if the contacts from my phone merge to the icloud or is it that the icloud information merges to my phone? My phone has the most current data and at one point I did have the contact syncing to the cloud, but then turned it off. Now, I want to turn it back on.
    How do I know I won't lose the data on my phone only to be replaced with old data from the cloud?

    it does not seem to work for me. I have backed up my iphone 5s with a back up from my previous 4. the back-up process works fine, I can see all my contacts in the phone but then I activate icloud (on which there are no contacts) and all my contacts disappear instantly... I tried 5 times now and everytime the same result. I'm considering to stop using the cloud all together.
    I've tried to manually back-up to icloud immediatly after restoring back-up on the phone, it didn't work.
    please help !

  • HT4436 For some reason  the ICloud took my contact list and left me without a list on my PC.

    For some reason  the ICloud took my contact list and left me without a list on my PC. My IPAD and IPOD Touch seem to share well with ICLoud but has removed my contact list completly from my PC. I am wondering if anyone else has had this experience or knows how to get it back ? 

    Be prepared to lose everything on your iPhone but it should be backed up in iTunes so you can restore from your backup.

  • Can i replace the contacts in iCloud and on my phone with those on my computer?

    When I enable iCloud on my iPhone 5 the contacts from my address book (Mac OS X)  are merged with those on my iPhone, creating multiple entries.  I have tried merging duplicates, but it resolved only some of the problems.  Now I am seeing all of the updates from my computer added to those on my phone instead of replacing information I have updated.  For example, in some entries I see the correct address (sometimes more than once) as well as the old address I replaced on my computer (sometimes more than once).  I tried "replacing the information on this phone" when I synched, but the problem persists.  I want to use iCloud to sync my contacts, but I don't want to merge with iCloud, I want to replace the iCloud data with the data on my computer.

    Step 1 - save VCF file of contacts on your computer
    Step 2 - Delete contacts in icloud.com
    Step 3 import VCF in icloud.com
    Step 4 make only icloud contacts visible on iphone by going to contacts -groups and take checkmarks out of everything but icloud.
    Step 5 make icloud your default contacts from now on. Settings - mail contacts and calendars - contacts - default contacts.
