Just need help getting contacts after upgrade

someone mentioned going to back up done before the upgrade. How do you access that? i did the back up a week ago and did another before upgrading this afternoon. I lost all my apps but was able to figure out how to get them back and it didn't involve going to a backup. The speed is quicker than before I just need help with getting my contacts back. anyone able to help me out on this matter?

All your contacts should be in whatever PC program you have been syncing them with - Outlook 2003/2007 or Windows Address Book.

If your contacts are no longer on your PC, just restore them from your most recent PC backup.

  • Need help getting contacts from outlook 2010

    I need help getting my contacts from outlook 2010 to icloud and/or my iphone. I have icloud up and logged in on pc. when I go to a contact to import it says there was a problem reading the vcard. any help is welcomed.

    I do have the latest version of DTM and working with OUTLOOK 2000.  I know it is old, but it still does what I need it to. I did try to uninstalland reinstall.  No luck.  The only options listed to sync are yahoo, outlook express, and ASCII inport/export.  Obviously it is not syncing my other data either, but it is my contacts that I am most concerned with at this point.  The calader would be nice too!  Any other suggestions, or is my outlook too old to sync?

    When I go to Itunes it does not show my Ipad under devices.
    Why not?

  • So im about to buy a mac pro, I just need help cause im not sure if it's worth paying more for instance, a hi-res screen compared to the stock screen, and will i really miss the .2 ghz and the upgraded video card if I get the 2.0 ghz mbp?

    It appears the 15" 2.2 ghz isn't worth spending $400 more for, but you get the 1GB Radeon 6750M that has four times the VRAM than the 15" 2.0Ghz model and about 167% more performance. High settings on all current games with over 50 fps.
    If your not into 3D gaming or just light weight, then the 2.0 Ghz (last years performance) will suffice on low-medium settings at about 30 fps.
    The 13" is rather poor as it has integrated graphics. 30 fps on only some games.
    The high res screen is a excellent choice and the anti-glare is great for viewing just about anywhere.
    No messy films to replace at $30-$40 a pop.
    A lot of people bring the glossy screens back once they hear about the anti-glare.

    Here's my 17"
    In my opinion the extra $400 for another 2-3 years of use out of the computer is worth it.
    Quad cores are more than enough for most uses for most people for many years, it's just a slow card is going to make the machine feel slow in rendering graphics in the future.

  • HT1386 I need help getting my contacts transferred from my old phone to my new one

    I need help getting my contacts transferred from my old iphone to my new one

    Either backup the contacts in iCloud or with a compatible programme on your computer (Outlook, Windows Contacts, Address Book etc).
    Once done, sync the contacts to your new iPhone from that programme/iCloud.
    Read "Contacts"

    Backup is your best option if you have one. Reverting software will not bring the contacts back.

  • Just need to get site looking right in IE6. Help please.

    I am designing a new site. I have tested it in IE7, FF, Opera
    and Safari. All looks fine.
    In IE6 however I have a problem with my LeftMenu background
    image not lining up properly with the UL background image. It is
    like IE6 is not picking up the top margin of 4px from my TopList
    and the TopList and Rightlist positionings are out in IE6.
    To make the LeftMenu background image appear correct in IE6 I
    have to add top-padding of 4px to my TopList. Doing this, however
    puts the positioning out in all the other browsers.
    I just need to get IE6 to display correctly and then I will
    be happy! Any ideas anyone? The page does validate.

    That can be a solution. Sometimes it's enough to use only
    some specially adjusted styles for IE, f.i. when you need
    'min-height' for a div-tag (IE doesn't understand that) you can
    place css for 'height' for the same div-tag in the stylesheet for
    IE.
    You can call a stylesheet for IE like this, in the head
    section of your page place this code:
    <link href="your-basic-stylesheet.css" rel="stylesheet"
    type="text/css" />
    <!--[if lte IE 6]>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
    href="your-IE-style-sheet.css" />
    <![endif]-->

  • I haven't used an Apple computer for years. I need help getting started

    I just bought a mac mini after 20 years using a PC.  I need help getting started.  Any beginning manuals out there?  Thanks.

    Welcome back. Do not overlook the Finder and individual application Help menu support. The links provided above are great starter references. With tongue in cheek, they also may not be as current as the OS X release on your mini, so expect some differences.
    Here are a litany of keyboard short-cuts, last updated in June 2012, that may prove selectively beneficial.
    For actions like copy(c), paste(v), cut(x), print(p), and select-all(a), substitute the command key instead of control key.
    If you right click on a file, this menu will seem familiar. Press the option key and notice the menu changes. If you copy a file(s) from this menu, change to the destination and then press option with the right button menu to see copy file(s) changed to move file(s).
    To quickly view a file's contents, left click on the file icon, then press the space bar.
    The native file format for OS X is PDF. Thus, when you choose to print, you also have the option to save as PDF with web links preserved.
    Enjoy your mini.

  • Missing information (addresses, etc.) in my Contacts after upgrading to Mountain Lion

    I can't see detailed information (addresses, etc.) in my Contacts after upgrading to Mountain Lion.  This happened when I upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard, but fixed itself when upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion.
    I can see the information when I do a Print Preview of an envelope, so the information is in the program somewhere, but can't be seen when viewing the Contact Card.

    BTW, I can see all Contact Card information on my iTouch just fine.

  • I need help getting itunes on my new computer. old one crashed

    My old computer crashed, I downloaded iTunes on my new computer and need help getting all of my stuff on it that I had. I did 'home share' to see if that worked, and it didnt.
    Also, on my old computer, when I synced my iPad & my husbands iPod, it didnt sync any music or podcasts, no videos-and i went through each category seperately to sync it and it didnt work. So I can't sync my devices to the new iTunes bc not everything is on there that i have purchased.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your comuter for just this occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything on the new computer.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • TS4268 I need help getting my face time and imessage to work.

    I need help getting my face time and imessage to work. It is saying wating for activation. I just got my iphone 5 2 days ago. I have reset it from the phone and from itunes on the computer, made sure I'm attached to wifi.

    The 3 basic troubleshooting steps are these in order: 1. Restart your iphone  2.  Reset your settings/iphone  3.  Restore your iphone.  Since your iphone is only a couple of days old, you should backup your device before restoring.  If you don't have anything on your iphone that you care to lose, then simply restoring without a backup is fine.  A quick reset of pressing the sleep/wake button (top of iphone) and your home button simultaneously and holding it until the silver Apple logo appears.

  • My old iMac and OS 10.4 will not accept the New iTunes Version 10 application and I can't get past the screen offering to download iTunes 10.  This is wrong and I need help getting past this situation. Help!

    My old iMac and OS 10.4 will not accept the New iTunes Version 10 application and I can't get past the screen offering to download iTunes 10.  This is wrong and I need help getting past this situation. Help!

    Sure, you can get around it if you don't need the newest version of iTunes. I still use version 7.5 because the newer versions didn't strike me as offering anything I needed.
    If you do need a version 10-something then you will have to upgrade your operating system to Leopard (fi your computer will support it) at least.  If you need 10.5 for some reason then there's no getting around it, you will have to buy a new computer.
