Ios 6 update how do i get my contacts back???

how do i get my contacts back after the ios6 update?

No, iTunes itself will not save contact information but they "could be" a part of a backup which is located in your iTunes account or iCloud? Have you checked if you have a iPhone backup in iTunes?

How do I get my contacts back on my phone I update it now they are missing

How do I get my contacts back on my phone I update it now they are missing

I just lost all contacts. I tried the backups but as soon as restore was completed, it would lose notes again. I disconnected after recover but still no notes.
Out of desperation, as I have all my passwords etc on it (yes, I know) but I trusted the iTunes backup system. I looked on the net and found a recovery company called Wondershare, Dr Phone. I tested it and there it all was, but it has now cost me $69 to purchase key number to download my info.
All contacts info and everything else is available. It saves it in a file which you open.
Now I have to type it all in again. I will keep manual backups now as well as using Dropbox from now on. Nightmare. I hope this helps you all.

How do i get my contacts back from io5 update on my iphone 4

how do i get my contacts back from io5 update on my iphone 4

Although contacts are included with the iPhone's backup, contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer and/or over the air with an email account that supports it, and there are several that do which are free.
Not a good idea to depend on the iPhone or any cell phone alone for contacts which can be lost or stolen or damaged beyond repair. If the contacts are available elsewhere as designed and intended, it doesn't matter if there is a problem with your iPhone's backup in regards to this data.

I lost my iphone, how do i get my contact back on itune?

lost my iphone, how do i get my contact back on itune? Is there somewhere where i can have it?

iTunes does not store contacts. iTunes serves as the sync conduit for syncing contacts between your iPhone and a supported address book app on your computer where your contacts should be. Not a good idea to depend on an iPhone or any cell phone alone for contact info, which can be lost or stolen.
Contacts are also included with the iPhone's backup which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process. You can try using a 3rd party app such as this one to try extracting the data from your iPhone's backup.

How do i get my contacts back? they have just dissapeared?!

how do i get my contacts back, i just looked at my phone, didnt touch anything and they had just dussapeared! i didnt have a single one left and i dont have a clue how to get them back?!

Hi sfuentes,
You need to check iCloud to see if they are actually there. Go to iCloud.com and sign in and then look at your Contacts there to see if the old ones are still showing on iCloud.
If they are not, then you can either re-enter them while you are on iCloud.com, or you can restore your device from the backup where you saved them:

How do I get my contacts back after my phone wiped itself?

I have a password set on my phone and you get 10 attempts before it locks you out. My friend decided to take all 10 of those attempts and failed and right after that a white screen came up and said "wiping". I took my battery out and put it back in and the wiping screen came back up and then it turned on like normal. But all of my contacts and messages are gone, but not my downloaded apps, pictures, ringtones, and stuff like that. How do i get my contacts back if they weren't on my SIM card? and why would my phone wipe itself just because someone failed at the password 10 times?

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Yes the wipe would delete all personal data settings as a security feature designed in the device.
Unless you have used the Blackberry desktop software to get a full backup of the device prior to the wipe the data is gone. If you do have the backup file you can restore the data via the desktop manager.
Thanks,

KB10385 Forgotten password security wipe.
" As a security feature, the BlackBerry smartphone is designed to allow a maximum of 10 attempts by the BlackBerry smartphone user to type the correct password. After the tenth attempt, if the correct password has not been typed, all data is erased from the BlackBerry smartphone in order to discourage its theft or misuse."
