IPhone 4 deleted 90% of contacts for no reason and I have no iCloud or back up

What can I do about loosing more then half of my contacts for some reason with no back up or iCloud

Without any sort of backup or iCloud, there is not a whole lot you can do. You will have to manually rebuild them.
Sorry,

    It could have powered off. Try holding the sleep button down for a few seconds until the apple logo appears to restart it

    Hello everybody, I have the following problem: my apple id was desabled for security reason and I have to reset my password to enable the account again, but when I try to do this, using the e-mail, I've never received such e-mail. When I chose to do this by the security answers, it's not work again, because does not accept my birth date. Can you please somebody help with this issue? Thanks in advance

    If you have a rescue email address on your account then you've checked the inbox and spam folder on that account as well, and you've tried requesting the email again ? If you still can't find it then try contacting Support in your country and see if they can reset it for you.

    My iPad will just shut down for no reason and I have to reboot a few times to get it back up and running

    Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Does the iPod see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iPod connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - 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.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Try changing the security on the router. Start with no securty as a test.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • My iphone 4 went into recovery mode for some reason and it is unable to be restored. any ideas how to fix this?

    my iphone went into recovery mode for some reason and is unable to be restored. it wont turn on and when plugged into a charger it shows a usb and itunes symbol. so i plugged it into my mac and connected to itunes then itunes said it has detected a phone in recovery mode and needs to be restored. so it goes through the restoration process for a couple minutes or so then stops and says itunes is unable to restore because an unknown error occurred (2001) or (2006) and other times i try it says its unable to restore because itunes cant detect the device... any ideas how to fix this?

    Errors 2000-2009 (from Apple support): If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.
    2001: Use up to date software. Make sure your device is in DFU Mode: http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034
    2006: Use a different USB cable. Possibly the one that came with your iPhone.

  • The brightness symbol pops on for no reason and I have to reboot to get it to go away. Why?

    Does anyone else experience the brightness symbol covering most of yourscreen and not going away till you reboot?

    Sorry. I don't know what to tell you. As far as I can tell, there is no such screen overlay in iOS unless you have a jailbroken phone.
    Look for icons on the homescreen called Brightnessup and Brightnessdown. If they are there, your phone is definitely jailbroken.

  • How to transfer SMS and Call History from Iphone 5 to Iphone 6 plus? Only the contacts, calendar, safari bookmarks and notes have synced.

    Hi! Please help. I have synced my IPhone 5 to Itunes. When I try to sync it to Iphone 6 plus, only the contacts, calendar, safari bookmarks and notes have synced to the latest date. The rest like SMS and Call History have only synced to June 2013.

    I upgraded from an iPhone 4S to iPhone 6 Plus, I don't like to run iTunes, and iCloud backup is not so reliable, I think. Then I searched on the Internet, and some articles told me that I can directly transfer data from Phone to iPhone with some tools.
    I doubt it first, then I gave a shot on one of them for the free trial. I follow the steps to transfer about 200 sms from my 4S to 6 Plus, and it works!
    Got this from here: http://www.cultofmac.com/296711/transfer-data-new-iphone-6-imazing/
    Hope this helps!

  • HTTP SERVICE STOPS FOR NO REASON AND NO ERRORS IN LOGS WIN2K

    The HTTP service stops for no reason and we have to stop and restart to unlock and web server runs again. It appears to be related to number of concurrent users but we cannot tie it down to and specfics except on our NT 4.0 system the service never stops and runs fine . We are running versions R1 patch 4 and have gone up to 5 and 7 . We are running against an 9i database and using forms and reports. We are not using the forms server in patch 4 just the HTTP service. This is a big problem and would like an answer if possiable.

  • So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date, is there a way to get it all back?

    So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date,and it also kept the notes from after the backup. The "reset all settings" option clearly says no loss of data or media, so I don't understand why some stuff got deleted. My question is, is there a way to get it back?

    If you still can find a recent backup listed in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices, use this one to restore from.
    If there are no recent backups listed, your data is gone. Only if you included the iTunes backup folder into your computer backup routine, you could be able to restore this folder and find one of your latest backups listed again.

  • Disable and delete autocomplete email contacts for...

    When I replay to emails from users that I do not have in my address book the address will be added in an autocomplete contacts. I think this feature is very annoying and would like to turn it off, is it possible and how am I doing? Or must I now reset the phone to remove all autocompleted email contacts?
    I am using Office 365 for my email, and I have earlier a Samsung S2, I have the feature turned off in Office 365 so with my S2 I did not have any problem (used this guide, http://community.office365.com/en-us/forums/158/p/167335/482206.aspx)…
    Thanks in advance!

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Deleting_autocomplete_entries
    You can hover or highlight an entry in the drop down list and press Delete to remove that entry. Be cautious as there is no undo.

  • My iPhone 4S just turned off for no reason and won't turn back on?

    My iPhone 4S just died for no apparent reason and now it will not turn back on. It was at about 90% battery at the time because I had just recently charged it so I don't think it died because of low battery. I have tried plugging it into outlets and computers/iTunes and nothing seems to work. I also can't do the trick involving holding down the power and home button because my power button has been jammed for over a year now. My iPhone is about 2 years old and I have never had this problem before. Earlier today it died for no reason but when I plugged it in, it turned on with no problem.
    Is there anything I can do about this? Also, I am due for a phone upgrade in about 3 weeks. I was planning on getting the 5S. Is there any way that I would be able to get the upgrade several weeks early if my phone is broken?

    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

  • HT4236 I was trying to Import photos to my computer and was asked to upgrade my Iphone before importing. In restoring my Iphone, it deleted all of my 200 new photos and they are now gone. Is there any way to retrieve them?

    I was trying to Import photos to my computer and was asked to upgrade my Iphone before importing. In restoring my Iphone, it deleted all of my 200 new photos and they are now gone. Is there any way to retrieve them?

    You should ALWAYS import all pics ( and anything selse for that matter) before any update. 
    If you failed to do this, then the pics are likely gone.  You can try restoring from backup.
