If i reset my phone will i loose contacts

if i reset my phone will i loose all my contacts?

It really depends what you mean with reset.
Factory Restore?
Updating your iOS?
Restarting your iPhone?
Factory Restore:
If you back your files, no.
Updating your iOS?
Backup, and everything is stored.
Restarting your iPhone?
Let me ask you a question, you restart your PC, did you lose any of your files?

    Yes, a reset, holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release, does not affect data.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Only the content of your phone will be erased. Your Apple ID won't be modified and you will keep your data on your Apple ID, so don't worry

  • HT1766 i want to reset my phone will everything be deleted even though its backed up

    i want to reset my phone will everythig be deleted (pics,messages,apps)

    A reset (pressing and holding the home and power buttons until the white Apple logo appears) will not affect data in any way.
    A restore (as new) puts the device into a clean, out of the box state.
    A restore (from backup) restores the device to the exact condition when the backup was created on the most current version of iOS for that device.

    if i reset my ipod will i loose my imessage

    If yuo do this reset then no:
    - 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.
    Otherwise what do you mean by reset?

    An iPhone reset is similar to a computer restart, and the answer is no with a reset.
    When restoring an iPhone with iTunes, the iPhone is completed erased first including iOS. After iOS is reinstalled, you are prompted to restore from an available backup for your iPhone. If you are backing your iPhone up locally on your computer with iTunes, iTunes updates the iPhone's backup as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
    Regardless if there is an iPhone backup available, contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer and/or there are a number of free email accounts that support syncing contacts and other data over the air including a free Apple iCloud account. You don't have to worry about your contacts being included with your iPhone's backup when doing so.
    Photos and videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera epecially immediately before restoring the iPhone with iTunes and before installing an iOS update.

    Hello there, SamanthaYikwai.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some basic steps to try for reinstalling an app:
    iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
    Reinstall the app
    Remove the app from your device and reinstall it. Remember that deleting an app also deletes its data.
    Delete the app.
    Press the Home button.
    Go to the App Store and download the app again.
    Wait for the app to download, then open it from the Home screen.
    If the download stops, you can resume it.
    If the issue persists, then you may want to try and sync the application to your iOS device using  your computer by following the information in this article, under the section "Download previous purchases on Mac or PC":
    Download past purchases

    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

  • If I reset my iPad will I loose all my apps too?

    If I reset my iPad will I loose all the apps too?

    Yes that's fine.
    Every time you purchase something on iTunes, they link the purchases to your apple ID.
    You'll notice the apps you've purchased before will either have 'installed' next to them in the App Store, or 'install'.
    If it has a price next to it, you'll be charged, so be careful downloading ones you think you've already purchased.

  • HT4902 will I loose contacts on my iphone moving to icloud

    will I loose contacts on my iphone moving to icloud

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    No, you shouldn't, you should still make a back up anyway.

  • I have a white screen on my iPhone.  I've reset it and have also done restore through iTunes.  Didn't work.  Was wondering if i restored as a new phone will i loose my contacts

    i have a white screen on my computers.  I tried resetting it and it worked for a few minutes until it was put to sleep and then went back to white screen when i turned it back on. I tried resetting again and it did not work.  I then did restore for itunes.  it didn't work.  was wondering if i did restore, as a new phone set up in itunes will i loose my contacts.  just want to make sure before i try in the event i have to buy a new phone want to be able to have the information to transfer.

    restoring as new does just that.  It will wipe your phone clean just as if you just bought it.
    If you've been using your iPhone as recommended, you've been synching your contacts to your computer to a contact manager such as Outlook or Address Book, or you've been synching your contacts with a cloud service like MobileMe or Google.  Your contacts should be safe in one of those locations.

  • My imessaging doesn't work after the latest software update and was told that i will have to reset my phone will i lose my contacts if they are back up to icloud and how do i get them back from icloud?

    i need to know whether or not i will still be able to get my contacts back if i reset my phone to factory specifications

    If they are synced to iCloud and appear on icloud.com, they will reappear on your phone when you sign back into your account.  As a precaution, you could use an app like My Contacts Backup to back them up before you restore if you wish.  I would also recommend as a precaution that you import your camera roll photos and videos to your computer before restoring, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

  • HT1766 if i reset  my phone will i still have my pictures and apps

    if i reset my phone would i ll be apple to have all my pic and someof my apps as well.

    I think you mean restore and if so, all apps on your iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer.
    Photos/videos in your iPhone's Camera can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera especially just before restoring the iPhone with iTunes.
    Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are included with the iPhone's backup but not idea to depend on that alone.
    Apps can also be re-downloaded without having to pay for paid apps again.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.
