IPhone 6 plus - SOME contacts are lost after restoring from iPhone 5

PLEASE HELP!!!
Went today to an Apple store for them to help me to do the restore from a backup as something was going wrong with iTunes.
They seemed to "successfully" to do it - from iPhone 5 to iPhone 6 plus - all the apps moved, the interface, everything BUT after a couple of hours I've noticed that some contacts from the phone were missing and nowhere to be found AND now in the list of favorites ONLY SOME contacts don't have the names to them but only the numbers show up? WHAT'S UP with that?
This is my 5th or 6th phone and the whole backing up and restoring never been this difficult... grrrr!!!

IPhoto 09 - some recent events lost after restoring from Time Machine

recently my early-2009 iMac hanged during boot up on the white screen. so i a restore from Time Machine and it works. this freezing occurred twice of the last one week, which i did 2 restore to last backup. then i notice there's an issue with iPhoto 09. i notice some latest events which supposedly been backup during the restore point, appears 'blank'. when i enter Time Machine, i see all previous events but the recent day or two, it just turn out to be black squares, and when i enter the events there weren't any photos but just files with names.
i tested again but loading in a couple of new photos into iPhoto yesterday night, back it up and double check in Time Machine, it is (the new photos) there. about 6-hours later i make a check again (on Time Machine), the photos event became the black square again. this is really a pain for me as i have lost enough photos
i desperately need help on this. anyone?
here a couple of the screenshot from my Time Machine:

Hello mook,
So if I understand:
1.) The goal is to restore the iPhoto Library from a point before the issues started happening
2.) When you try to go backwards in Time Machine while inside the iPhoto window you get a blank Library when you get to the date range you want.
What to do:
- As you cannot seem to access the iPhoto contents using the iPhoto window I would suggest the following:
1.) Navigate using the Finder to ~/Pictures (or whatever folder you are currently housing your iPhoto Library in)
2.) Rename the current iPhoto Library to something else (Like iPhoto Library Old etc)
3.) While looking at this Pictures window, activate Time Machine and go back in time to a date when YOU ARE SURE iPhoto was working fine and had the images you want
4.) Click on the iPhoto Library in the Time Machine window and click on Restore
-- This will restore the Library from the date in question
-- You will have 2 libraries once the restore is complete. The freshly restored library and the old library. Keep the old library just for safe keeping until such time as you determine you have all the pictures you want. Then you can do whatever you want with it (trash it, etc)
Hope that helps.

Itunes could not sync contacts to the iphone because the contacts are in use by the iphone

itunes could not sync contacts to the iphone because the contacts are in use by the i phone.... hi i always get this messega when i plug my phone in to the iphone is there anyone have any idea how to fix my phone thank u

Am I'm the only one with this issue?
As I investigate the crash logs it appears that the contacts db is corrupted and that is what is killing the phone, contacts, and mail etc settings.
I have my contacts backed up several places so I'm not worried about losing them.
Anyone know how to wipe or recreate the contacts db on the phone via an attached PC?

Please HELP very important video lost after restoring from backup

I used my iphone 4 to record me preposing to my fiance and then today I stupidly sync to computer and restore from my 3GS backup before backing up the video files. Is there anyway to get the video back? Please help this is the most important thing in our life. Anything, Anyone please help. I am very devastated right now!

Too be honest. If you recorded the video on the iPhone 4, and then synced the iPhone 4 to iTunes to the computer it is usually connected to, then the video should be backed up.
I'm not sure though, how you managed to have your iPhone 4 up and running, but then restore from a backup from your 3GS?? If you have synced your iPhone 4 to iTunes before, then the backup will have been from the iPhone 4. You get the option the first time you connect the iPhone 4 to iTunes, to either setup as a new device or restore from a backup (that's if you have had a iPhone previously). You can restore the iPhone (which would set it up has a new device, which would remove everything off of it). If you have done this, has far as I know the old information off of the iPhone, would be still there until you synced the iPhone to iTunes again.
In Windows, the library file for iTunes is in username (whatever you are called) music/iTunes, the library file is called iTunes Library.itl, also in this location is the iTunes/iTunes Media folder, in there should be any video/s that have been synced from your iPhone.
Other information off of the iPhone are in the following location:
(You will need to first make sure you have Windows set to show hidden files & folders), Username/AppData/Roaming/Apple Computer
I hope you manage to find your video.

Some notes are lost after typing them in and quitting (but 30%)!

HI fellow apple enthusiasts,
I am running an iMac and a MacBook Air with both latest OS and an iPhone.
I have the strangest experience with notes: some notes are just lost when I type them, quit notes and open it again.
They are just not there.
I have allready gone made because I have typed a lot of stuff in there and then its just - vanished.
I allready getting used of copy past all then quit and open again to see if its there, but its happening pretty often and I have no clue whats going on!
thanks, alex

Try deleting the Notes .plist. Quit Notes. Test afterwards.
You need to look in your user Library/Preferences for the .plist. Hold down the option key while using the Finder "Go To Folder" command. Enter ~/Library. Delete the .plist(s) for the application.
If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
http://osxdaily.com/2011/07/04/show-library-directory-in-mac-os-x-lion/
You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after I installed 10.8.2. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.
If that didn't fix the problem quit Notes, go to the user library again, and move the Notes container to your desktop (make sure it doesn't just copy). Test. If that didn't solve the problem, put the one on your desktop back.

Iphone 4 unable to extract picture after restoring from backup.

Hi all
i m currently using a iphone 4 and while before restoring i have done the back up and after restoring all 2500 pictures was gone and no way to extract. But making use of other third party software all picture was found but due to purchase software thus never make any purchase to retrieve all picture back.
can anyone help to resolve the problems above mention and seem like the jepg file has became a document file instead?

Hey there spam242,
It sounds like the restore process will not complete successfully and the phone will not boot up. I recommend starting by resetting the phone, then try restoring again.
If your device stops responding, you can reset it by pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
From: iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, then I would next put the phone into Recovery Mode and try again.
iOS: Unable to update or restore

Take care,

Some sequences are lost after updated premiere pro 2014

I downloaded trial ver of pp cc2014 last month and now got updated to 8.1 . before i had trouble with opening file it was newer version of premiere pro edited and i couldn't get my file opened up again untill i have updated premiere cc 2014 in adobe application manager. and now i could get my file opened. but the main sequence is lost, i couldn't even find it in project panel either. i clicked open project choose the one i have edited before which is a month ago. and it says audio filter missing and bunch of codes. Whats happening here? please help!

Go to HD/Library/Quictime and delete all .component files. It appears that the correct procedure is to delete all QT components and everything so far works. I have to do this every time I run after effects or Premiere Pro, and remember to put them back in again after shutting down software. Any ideas why this is happening folks?

WIKI etc. lost after restoring from time machine

Here's what happened I restored the full server from Time Machine and everything works a treat except the web, blogs and the calendar, I cannot be activated from the Web services tab. Webmail works though but only if I go directly to the webmail www.server-name/webmail
I had nothing in the wiki or the blog, so the content is not my concern, but of course now that it isn't working I want to use it.
Any ideas? Can I reinstall just the webservices in anyway?

Time Machine is a limited tool for data backup and restoration of Mac OS X Server v10.6. It can back up some server configuration settings and service state. Time Machine does not back up service data.
Direct from Apple, that is: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=ServerAdmin/10.6/en/asafc284c9.html
I read that to be Apple's way of saying, "Don't trust your server data to this user-level backup program."
That said, if I understand the problem you're having, it may not be related to Time Machine, but instead may be a corrupt config file or a misconfiguration in the configs. I might check the various logs to see if there are any errors reported. Apache logs, in particular the error.log files, may be of some benefit and possibly point in the direction to show why you can't start the services. Also, don't forget to double-check that you have the right DNS entries in place for your server and the right entries in the Web config for your sites. On my systems, Apache will start, but won't serve any wiki or blog pages unless forward and reverse DNS resolves properly for every site.

Audio tracks are lost after importing from iMovie...

After importing my movie from iMovie I lost my audio tracks. What is the problem ?

Hello kropacd (and Karsten;)):
I realize at this late time that this will be a pain..but you might want to try to extract your audio prior to exporting (sharing) to iDVD to se if that helps...
The only other thing I can imagine is that you used 12-bit audio in your video instead of 16-bit? It really needs to be 16-bit-check the setting on your camera.

Some Photos are blank after conversion from Aperture

Library contains 45K photos .. migrated from Aperture. For some reason a large number of the photos have meta data but are blank. Where have they gone?

Partial CLUE ..
Two photos .. appear to be dupes .. but the case of the file NAME is different. The UPPERCASE JPG is blank .. the lowercase .jpg is not.
Ok -- Apple Engineers .. here's a start .. go fix.

Rebuilding a folder structure lost after restoring from backup

The external hard drive I was storing four years worth of photos on crashed the other day, and I learned the hard way that they weren't on the backup drive like I thought they were. Luckily I was able to recover at least most of them using FileSalvage. Unfurtunately, my ~15,000 images are now in three folders based on file type (JPG, TIF, DNG/NEF), don't have their original file names, and aren't in any particular order.
Is there any way short of manually sifting through the files for me to rebuild the year/month/day chronological folder structure I was storing them in?
I'm running Lightroom 4.0 on a OS X 10.8.4.

One option is to use Smart Collections to have Lightroom automatically put files into collections by either capture date or edit date. You can create the collections by year, month, day, a range of dates, etc. If you want to have four years of photos grouped by month, you'd have to create 48 Smart Collections for the 48 months (if you have photos captured or edited in all 48 months).
Then if you want to put them into Folders, just drag the Smart Collections to the appropriate Folders. But note that this will move the files on your hard drive into corresponding folders as well.

I am facing a problem with my iPhone 4. I applied the first syncing with outlook 2007 by choosing the "merge" option. At the end of the process, some contacts are correctly sync, but most are only sync with the names. Numbers are lost. Any suggestion?

I would love to do this as well. All I need is my calendar appts from outlook. Right now I am using google calendar sync, but I would like to move to the cloud and away from google. I find it hard to believe there isn't an option to do this.
