Lost all contacts and calender entries after updating to 4.1 on iphone 3G!

I updated to 4.1 this morning and now don't have any contacts or calender entries on my phone! They are all present and correct in Outlook 2003 on my PC but don't appear to by syncing???
I usually sync via the 'air' with Exchange but not any longer it would appear!!
Has anyone else experienced this problem and have a resolution?
Thanks
JP

  • Lost all contacts and dial pad on iphone 3gs after update

    Hi, please can someone help, ive lost all contacts and the abillity to add , also my dial pad wont work, all after update , i cant even re ad contacts through my messages.

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.  For some reason, are you not using the device as designed?
    As for other issues... basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Has any of this been tried?

    What does "I caught my phone 4" mean?
    All contacts, calendars, photos etc should be on your computer as the iphone is designed to be synced to your computer.
    Just sync them to your new iphone.

  • Our exchange server crashed and we lost all contact and calendar data.  We found an app to get the contacts off of people's phone to import but can't find the same for calendar.  How do I get my calendar info off my phone and in to new exchange server?

    You'd have to think through this, but it seems like if you are using Outlook, and the items vanished from the Outlook client as well as the server,that you could re-populate Outlook using iTunes.

        MeAndCoke,
    So sorry to hear she has lost all her contacts like that. Sounds like you are saying the device completed a factory reset on it's own. Is that right? I'm afraid unless the contacts and media were backed up somewhere prior to this happening they would be gone. Let's prevent that from occurring in the future and protect your contacts and media! You can set up backup Assistant Plus Contacts to back up your contacts: http://vz.to/1s5IAzj . Use our cloud service to back up your media: http://vz.to/1s5IDv5 .

  • Lost all contents and settings during 'routine' update to v1.1

    Hi all,
    Not too sure what went wrong, but I lost all settings and data during what I thought would be a routine firmware update.
    In the middle of the update, the phone hung, and the PC gave me the error message that it needed to restore to what turns out to be factory settings. All settings, data, notes and pictures were gone! (no warning given!)
    Since I didn't have a chance to download these before I got started, I'm not too sure what to say - if you see a way of backing up your phone before you update the firmware, I'd recommend that you do it.
    I've updated a lot of firmware in my life - I'd have to say this is the worst and the first time ever that I've lost data.
    In case anyone from Apple monitors this site - is there a way to seperate the data and the firmware area, so that if this kind of thing happens, you only wipe the firmware area?
    The phone even initially told me I had to re-register and only offered me a way to make an emergency call ...
    -R

    Have you docked your Iphone in before updating? If so your contacts and settings should be saved. Yes your picture's are going to gone because you have to manually save them. According to this post http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1069906&tstart=0 it looks like the activation is down with ATT so this is why you are having problems getting all your contacts and settings and having to reactivate.

  • I lost all my picture, n everything after update to iOS 5, very sad, try to restore, nothing happen, just bad, iOS 5 ruin everything, anyone please help!! So frustrated

    I lost all my picture , n everything, after upgrade to ios5, I try to restore but just can't, so frustrated, ios5ruin everything, so sad, anyone please help?? Thx

    Did you get any error messages?  What happens when you try to restore from backup? Error messages?
    If music, the apps themselves and some other items were not in yur iTunes library when you did the update they will not be on the iPod after the update.  This is because the apps themselves (app data is in the backup), music and some other items are not part of the backup and are synced to he iPod during a latter stage of the update.

  • I just lost my contacts and calendar entries through icloud, how do i get them back?

    I read that the space being used up on my iphone can be from having iCloud backups on. So I turned them all off and thought when it said to delete the contacts and calendar eltries it mean the back up being stored on the phone, not the actual contacts and calendar entries. Can anyone help me to restore these items?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It sounds like you are turning off syncing (settings > iCloud) rather than back ups.
    Try turning them on again.

  • All Contacts and Calendars entries have disappreared

    All my Contacts and Calendar entries have suddenly disappeared from my iPhone4S, and the phone won't allow me to make any new Calendar entries. I've tried restoring from a back-up on my PC, but I get a messsage on iTunes on the PC saying no back-up is stored there, although I'm looking at the iTunes screen telling me when the last back-up was made.
    Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
    TIA

    I have the exact same problem and it drives me mad - thanks for letting me know if you find a solution. Here is what I will try: export all my contacts from where they are in the pst file in outlook then "try" to reimport them in the ost file (exchange). I noticed indeed that if I create a contact in the ost file, it does get pushed over to itunes.
    But there seems to be no way of telling itunes which outlook data file to use in priority, and if you select it as default in outlook you wipe out the content of your mail file on the exchange server. Not great.
