Iphone 4 lost all contacts. where are they?

went to answer a phone call and noticed no names with numbers.  contacts tab totally blank. Anybody got any ideas?

Hi, i also having the same problem. On Monday, all of my contacts dissapeared, i was not able to access my calendar and my notes were wiped off as well. I read to restart phone, I did, and it helped. My contacts were restored. Too bad my notes and calendar events did not. At least i have all of my contacts back!
Thanks for the tip!

  • I have lost my contacts, where are they

    I have current software on iphone 4.  i changed some things in my yahoo email, but i never used my yahoo contacts.  i thought i had icloud backup but everything is gone.  if i pick yahoo contacts i get everything from my email contacts, but not newer iphone contacts i had added, in addition i get yahoo email contacts i don't want in my phone.  Help, how do i get all my contacts back from the cloud as they were just an hour ago? 

    Did you use your backup to restore the info and settings on your phone again?
    Are the contacts still part of the program you sync to on your computer? If yes, set one contact up on your phone and sync again, you will get the option to merge your contact data.

  • I've updated my iphone 5 and have lost all contacts' where can i find them?

    i/ve lost contacts after updating to ios6' what can i do?

    If you dutifully backed up the phone prior to the update, be it on the iCloud or on a computer, merely resync the data back in.
    If you did not, you can now start contacting your friends/family/acquaintances, cause the data originally on the phone is GONE.

  • If I already purchased apps from my iPhone with same account, where are they?

    I have purchased many apps in the last year or two with my iphone using apple apps but when I try to find those apps for downloading to my macbook air, they're not there. It makes it seem as if I need to repurchase them again using the same account. Is there something I need to do to find them?

    Welcome to Apple Communities
    You need to purchase them, because iOS and OS X are different and requires different apps

  • System crashed so need to re-download all apps - where are they?

    Following a power cut last night my SSD system disk was zapped and I had to reinstall Windows 7 today. While no data was lost, unfortunately the Download folder was on that drive and all the Cloud install files were there. I therefore need to re-download and re-install all the apps I use - Manager, Photoshop, Lightroom, InDesign, Illustrator, Dreameweaver for starters. However I can't find where to download them from. Can anyone help please?

  • HT4623 I recently updated my iPhone 5 to iOS 6.1 and lost all of my contacts.  My phone was less than 30 days old and I did not have an account with iCloud prior to the back-up.  Any way to restore my contacts or are they lost forever?

    I recently updated my iPhone 5 to iOS 6.1 and lost all of my contacts.  My phone was less than 30 days old and I did not have an account with iCloud prior to the back-up.  Any way to restore my contacts or are they lost forever?

    I have the exact same problem.  I did the update on my iPhone 5 yesterday, opted for the iCloud set up in the update and then it wiped my contacts.  They are not on my phone or in the cloud...

  • I upgraded my iPhone 4 from iOS 3.3.5 to iOS 5.0 and lost all my photos on the camera roll. Where are they and can I  retrieve them?

    I upgraded my iOS 3.3.5 to 5.0 on my iPhone 4 and lost all photos on camera roll. Where are they and can they be recovered?

    Have you been using your phone as recommended?  If so, you've been importing photos in your camera roll onto your computer for safe keeping.  Just as you would with a standalone digital camera.  Your photos would then reside safely on your computer for archival. 
    While camera roll photos ARE part of the backup, not everything always goes smoothly as you've seen, which is why the recommendation to import photos as soon as possible to your computer.
    If you have a recent backup of your iPhone, you can restore and hopefully many of your photos will be on this backup.  Any photos or data added to your phone since this last backup are, of course, gone forever.

  • I lost all of my contact with yesterdays update.  Where are they and why did this happen?

    I lost all of my contact with yesterdays update.  Where are they and why did this happen?

    What update? There was nothing released yesterday relating to iCloud.
    Where have you lost your contacts from? Your computer, your phone, iCloud.com?
    If they are no longer in any of those places, you'll need to restore them from your most recent backup.

  • HT1766 lost my iphone and can't find photos and videos from camera roll on my computer. where are they?

    lost my iphone and can't find photos and videos from camera roll on my computer. where are they?
    thanks

    Where did you put them?
    These are not part of the sync process at all, as the manual tells you.  You should be importing them to your comptuer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

    Hello Jesslb23,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving iMessages, follow these steps first
    Check iMessage system status for current service issues.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure that you have registered iMessage with your phone number or Apple ID and that you have selected iMessage for use. Learn more about troubleshooting iMessage registration if the phone number or Apple ID isn't available for use.
    Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. Learn more about troubleshootingcellular data or a Wi-Fi connection if a data connection isn't available.
    iMessage over cellular data might not be available while on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports. Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while on a call if your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls.
    Restart your device.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    If you are still unable to send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
    Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    Verify that the contact you are attempting to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and re-create the contact in the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    Back up and restore your device as new.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • I updated to Mountain Lion and Mail has lost all my RSS feeds. Where are they?

    I updated to Mountain Lion and now Mail has lost all my RSS feeds. What happened and where are they?

    -------- "Your RSS data is not lost. You can find it in ~/Library/Mail/V2/RSS folder."
    it's just as good as lost, if there is no way to load the info in that folder into a new reader.
    i followed that path, ~/Library/Mail/V2/RSS, and I have almost 40 rss feeds. that means
    there are nearly 40 folders that I would have to go into, one by one, and extract the pertinent
    information, and import, one by one, into a new reader.
    this is a problem that Apple created. I would have never used the mail.app as a reader
    if I knew Apple was going to do this to us. And it makes you wonder what else Apple is
    going to do to screw us loyal customers over. (why would they discontinue a feature, knowing
    that it would mean lost data and a headache to their customers?)
    does anyone have an automated solution to importing these files into a new reader?

    Lost all contact info.  All my Aps are there but all the data/progress is missing.  When I plug my iphone into the usb fto synch up with my itunes on the computer a message comes up and says "enter the password to unlock your iphone backup file".  This is very frustrating

    I suggest trying the update again after an hour or two.  Sometimes, the notice that an update is available comes an hour or two before the developers actually sends the revised app out to be downloaded.

    If your MB isn't the computer you usually sync with, the notes were deleted and not retrievable.  Do you backup with iCloud?

    I lost my old e-mails. I want to keep them and be able to refer to them from time to time. Where are they? It shows their number on the bottom right hand side of the screen, but there is no dropdown or other selection to view them.

    Thunderbird support is over here.

    one fine day yesterday, my i phone just hangup lost all contact detail. The screen only show a picture depicting cable connection to iTune. I have tried to restore iphone to factory setting but not working .  May i know how to proceed to recover lost contacts.

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.
