If this applies...
You can import photos or video taken or saved on the iOS device. Information on importing photos and videos is available in the iPhone User Guide, iPad User Guide, or iPod touch User Guide. You can find additional information on importing your photos from your iOS device in this article.

Firefox extention to work with iphone icloud wiped my contacts list, how do I get them back?

I plugged my iphone into my computer to upload some images. This automatically started Itunes. Itunes wanted to back up to icloud. I initiated the icloud thing and it prompted me to install a firefox extention for compatability. Now my contacts in outlook (2010) are gone. How do I get them back?

hello Rocksterr, you'd probably have to put this question to apple or whoever is developing this third-party addon as firefox itself won't in any way interfere with your outlook contacts.

Have just updated phone with latest update and all my photo's have gone to internal storage. How do i get them back in my camera roll

Have just updated my phone with the latest update and all my photo's have gone to internal storage. how do i get them back in to my camera roll so i can view them on my phone.

Pictures are not designed to be kept in the Camera Roll... that is simply temporary storage for when you are taking pictures. Try reading this and this to see if it clears it up for you.

All my contacts are wiped out, how do I get them back??

All my contacts are wiped out, how do I get them back? I tried to reboot my phone by turning it completely off and on again and that didn't help. I tried syncing to the compluter on itunes and that didn't help, and I tried calling AT&T and that didn't help. They said to make an appt. with Apple and hopefully they could help. They also said that 3 other people came in their store with the same issue this week. If someone out there knows how I could get contacts back on my phone please let me know. Thanks.

There are no contacts on or in iTunes. iTunes does not store contacts. iTunes can serve as the sync conduit to sync contacts between your iPhone and a supported address book app on your computer. This is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
Certainly you don't depend on an iPhone or any cell phone alone for such important data which can be lost or stolen, damaged beyond repair, or there can be a hardware or software problem preventing access to the contacts.
Windoze or Mac?
Your contacts are not available anywhere on your computer?

HT4623 The icons for my camera and facebook have disappeared. How can I get them back

I installed IOS6 recently on my IPhone and now my camera and facebook icons have disappeared. How can I get them back? Help!

For your camera, go to Settings>General>Restrictions and be sure that Camera is set to On. Don't know why you can't find FB, be sure you checked all your screens and inside all your folders.

The Apple Store recommended wiping and reloading software on my Mac Mini yesterday. In the process I lost iMovie, iPhoto and Garage Band. How can I get them back?

I took my Mac Mini to the Apple store yesterday since I was having trouble with difficult to read text. They recommended wiping the drive and reloading it. I lost iMovie, iPhoto and Garage band in the process. How can I get them back. The App store says they are already installed.

What I missed was that I needed to select "Purchased" rather than using the normal listing of items. Once I went to the purchased list I could easily download the various software.
Thank you all for your help.

I updated my 3GS to the ISO 5.1.1 . It seems to have wiped my phone clean of apps, contacts, notes, etc. How do I get them back?

Hi all,
I updated my 3GS to the ISO 5.1.1 . It seems to have wiped my phone clean of apps, contacts, notes, etc. How do I get them back?
Appreciate for your guide amd help.

All apps should be in your iTunes library along with all other iTunes content that was on the iPhone.
Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer.
Notes can be synced with a supported app on your computer as well.
Contacts and notes are included with your iPhone's backup but not any iTunes content which should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Your iPhone's backup should have been updated as the first step during the update process. If the backup was not restored, try restoring your iPhone with iTunes from that backup.

When an iPhone updates, it wipes the whole device clean and then reinstalls the software and then the backup. Obviously you didn't create/couldn't create a backup either via iCloud or iTunes. You can get your apps back when you go to App Store>Updates>Purchased and download the apps you want.

I've suddenly lost multiple apps (including settings, App Store, iTunes, camera, photos etc). How do I get them back?

Thanks for replies, however...
Tried turning off/on and hard resetting - didn't work.
Spotlight search didn't find them either.
Had about 5 pages of apps - now only have 2 so they're not on another page.
The settings app is missing too so can't reset through settings.
They were all there last night but my ipad is almost empty when I picked it up tonight.

Which photos? If the missing photos were synced to the iPod then you have to get them from where you got them the first time. Synced photos are not in the backup that iTunes makes.

Welcome to the Apple Community.

I have updated my iphone4 to IOS5 but all my text messages have disappeared. How do I get them back?

I have just completed an update to IOS 5 and restored by phone from back up but all the text messages have disappoeared. How do I get them back?

Not for the iPhone. Go to Safari, go to maps.google.com, then add the bookmark to the desktop and you have most of what was in the native Google Maps app.

HT4623 the update wiped out my contacts. how do i get them back?

i updated my iphone 4s and now i don't have my contacts. they're gone. how do i get them back? I can't figure it out.

They will be in whatever program/service you have been syncing. Just sync them back.
If you have failed to sync them with your computer/service regularly, as the iphone is designed, then they are probably gone.

My iPhone 5 was restored from backup, and while it was restoring everything else all my pictures slowly went from 900 to none. where did they go and how do I get them back?

My iPhone has been acting very strange lately and the only way to get it to turn on and function is to restore it. I restored it from a backup of my phone before I restored it. I was mostly worried about my pictures. I was relieved to see them all there,
until the number of photos in my camera roll and other albums began to go down. soon enough, all the pictures I had restored were deleted. where did they go and how can I get them back?

Hi bluegrandpanash,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you backed up your iPhone to iCloud before updating the software, first try the steps under "Restore from an iCloud backup" in this article to recover your data:
