Lost all contacts after updating to ios 8.2

I updated my phone to the new ios 8.2 and after installing the update my contacts were gone. I didn't have them backed up to icloud. How do I get them back?

If you did a clean install then you have to manually import contacts from the sim. Try this guide to import sim contacts easily on ios 8.
OR
Try going into settings ---> Mail,Contacts,Calendars ---> Import SIM Contacts.

Lost all contacts how do I get them down for icloud?

Generally, this is caused when the index database gets corrupted. You can delete it and it will be rebuilt from the data.
Make a backup of your Address Book using File>Export>Address Book archive.
Then, go to the Finder and hold down option key while selecting Go menu. Choose Library.
Navigate to your Application Support/AddressBook folder and delete the adressbook-v22.abcddb file.
Start Address book and your contacts should be back.
If you are syncing with anything, you might want to turn that off while you do this.

Lost all contacts after iOS 4.3 update [iPhone 4]

The description above pretty much tells it all. All contacts missing from iPhone 4 after update to iOS 4.3.
All music, calendar, photos, voicemails are still there. And the strange thing (to me) is that the numbers are still there under "recent" and "favorites", just not the contact names to associate them with.
Backup is useless, as it is from after the update [why is there only one backup? That is useless, and you can't seem to force backups with date stamps].
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I had the same experience as RandyCPU, updated to 4.3 yesterday, all contacts disappeared but all other information still there, photos, texts, recent calls but no names etc. I too found that my phone was not backing up contacts and I only had the info from my changeover to the iphone4 in December. I asked if I could set it to back-up on syncing and was told it did it automatically but this is obviously not the case, I was then told that I would have to do it manually. Apple could only suggest restoring the December back-up but I have now lost everything loaded on the phone since then, they also advised that I was the only example of this problem. Very unhappy and still no idea why it happened.

Iphone 4 Lost all Data after updating

Hi there..
i got headache reading everywhere to find a solution to my problem, and didn't find any useful tips so far, i haven't slept for the past 24 hours because of this..
last day i did an update to my itunes to the latest version, and upgraded my iphone, while doing that my iphone got an error that it couldn't be updated and got stuck on recovery mode, and itunes asked me to do a restore to factory sitting, which i did, but in the last few seconds it just shows an error message that it cant update, and i get error 10, so i did what the manual said and tried using another computer which fortunately worked..
so i return to my first computer and tried to restore my backup files, and then i faced another problem, there was not enough space on my hard drive, i kept moving files away, deleting others and trying again, and every time i try, it takes up more space and i end up with few Kb on the drive.. i didn't know what to do, and got confused i think i click on back up instead of sync at some point, and when i realized that i hurried and unplugged the USP from the iphone, and in that moment a 3GB worth of data disappeared from my hard drive (i think it was the data the ituens kept creating while restoring back up) and a new back up worth 5mb was created on my back up folder..
now what i have on my iphone are my contact list, and my notes ..
what i don't have is 6 months worth of pictures and videos taken from the iphone, and my apps that are worth around $40 - $50
i read that iphone sync your data before doing a full restore, and i found 3 files on my back up folder one is 902 mb, secound 1.06GB and the third is 508 MB the first two dating today's date on 8:03 AM, the last one is also today on 6:33 AM which was the time i unplugged my USP from my iphone (i think)
i'v downloaded a program called "iPhone Backup Extractor" and saw that these folders contain all contacts, 300+ calender stuff and some messages (which i totally don't care for)but the photos and videos are marked None T_T
the question i'm asking is, how can i restore those lost pictures and videos, since they are very important to me, and how can i get my apps back?? i'v tried going to app store and downloading Whatsapp which i bought before, but now it asks me to pay again
i have some apps that is worth $5 and $10 each, i wouldn't mind paying for $.99 app again, but i can't pay more for an already paid app for that much yet again!!
by the way I have a windows Xp which i'm using, the restore worked on a windows 7 laptop
Plz help me, i'm starting to have a stomachache because all of this other than my headache T_T
Message was edited by: Hschi

so i was playing around seeing if i can get the apps back, and after going through the payment process it recognized that i'v bought this already, so i was able to download my stuff back.. (should have figured this out already, since it was an online transaction)
Still want to recover my camera roll, and i was wondering if chat logs could be recovered too, such as for the whatsapp???

I lost all apps after updating to iOS7.1 How do I get them back?

After updating my iphone4s with iOS7.1 I lost all my apps. How do I get them back?

All your apps should be in your itunes media library, sync your phone to itunes.
Or directly from your phone - app store - update - purchase - all or not on this phone - hit the cloud next to the app you want to download.

I lost my contact after update ios 7 to 8.1

Hi
I have lost my contact on my second iphone5 after updating ios.
please help me to back my contact

you can restore them if you had them backed up over icloud
or check if there's any left on your sim card (settings > mail, contacts,... > import from sim card)
do you, perhaps, have them saved on another phone?

Lost all signal after updating to IOS 7.1

I have an iphone 4s and Tesco sim. No previous problems at all and had kept the phone updated, until about 5 days ago when I updated to IOS 7.1, since when I have lost all my network coverage. It constantly shows 'Searching' or sometimes 'No Service'. I can't make or receive any calls or SMS which is hugely frustrating - though the rest of the phone is working fine and I can still imessage using the internet. It's not a problem with the provider (I have a work phone on the same network which is working fine) and it isn't the sim card, which I had changed incase that was the problem. I've tried all the tips I can see on here - putting flight mode on, turning phone on/off, turning 3g on/off, turning automatic carrier on/off, reset network setting, even did a factory reset today - all to no avail.
If anyone can help I would be very grateful. Seems very unfair that I should lose the basic use of my phone for updating?

Is your iPhone restricted? Check Settings > General > Restrictions

Lost all contacts when updating software

Hey I just updated to v4.6 on my Bold and now I can't find any of my contacts...calendar and outlook info still there but all of my contacts were lost...HELP!
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi and Welcome!
Depending on how you did the update, it may have created, on your PC, a backup file. If you did the update via USB tether on your PC (e.g., not OTA), then search your hard drive for a file with an ipd extension (*.ipd). Inspect the results (date/time of the file) and then choose one to use in the restore. Then, launch the DTM software and conduct a selective restore:

If you updated OTA or skipped the desktop backup during the update, then I am sorry for your loss, but there's nothing to be done.
Best.

IPod touch 4th generation lost all data after updating to iOS 5.0

I recently updated my iPod touch 4th generation from iOS 4.3 to iOS 5.0. However, when I went to access my iPod touch, all the app data was gone. My spending app was blank, my game stats were gone, and everything was lost.

Try to restore from the latest backup taken before the update.
