Lost all of my contacts when i upgraded to the new software

does anyone know how to retrieve my contacts? they are still on my main mac but will not transfer to my iphone....help!

Have been reading many entries about Contacts vanishing from the iPhone, or even the application's icon altogether...!
My Contacts were still on my Mac and on MobileMe.
So, with No Contacts on my iPhone's screen, I just entered a new one, and just called it Test. iPhone started to sync and the Test address soon vanished. But after ten minutes, I got all my old Contacts back on my iPhone.

While I have a few ideas, I think you'd have better luck troubleshooting this in the iCloud forum.

Need to Resume download to complete the ongoing Process.
Last Resort, put the iPhone in DFU mode (Google How to do that). Connect in iTunes. Follow on-screen prompts to Restore. All Data would be lost, if not backed up earlier.
To save the photographs you may have to use third party software. Google is your friend.

When i upgraded to the new iPhoto !! how i could restore them ??

All my photos on the old iPhoto disappeared when i upgraded to the new iPhoto !! how i could restore them ?? also i can see the size of the photos on the Hard disk which mean my photos are there but i dont know how to find them . i had to use Command + option when i startup iphoto but nothing happened

Simple solution: restore from the back up you made prior to upgrading.
Other than that:
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Your problem is really with "Time Machine", backup software included with OS X since version 10.5, not with your Time Capsule router. For more information on Time Machine, check these Web pages:

Intentionally not upgrading to the new software

I am intentionally not upgrading to the new software for my ipod touch since I have seen so many people having trouble with it on this website. Can someone tell me what features I am missing.
Thanks

What you are referring to is security patches that have to be released regularly by MS. I would take issue with your claim that very few of them cause issues, but to clarify they cause issues with some computers depending on the configuration. And then again some of them caused system wide problems and had to be retracted.
Firmware updates on iPods/iPhones are much more akin to Service Packs than security updates, but you are talking about different technologies, processors, etc.
Since buying my 4th Generation iPod I have installed many updates and I have yet to have an issue with any of them. I've also completed updates for people on Windows machines and again had no issues.

I keep getting a "Not enough storage to back-up my device" message since I upgraded to the new software. Short of purchasing more memory, and deleting some content, are there any other options?

What are my options for increasing storage capacity besides purchasing more memory, or deleting existing content. The new software install used up much of my storage capacity and the message is driving me crazy. Any ideas?? Thanks!

There are two kinds of storage messages that appewr on iOS devices. Your question seems at odds with your description so there might be some confusion here.
If the storage refers to not enough for an icloud back up then you need to purchase more icloud space or turn off iCloud backup. You can backup using iTunes on your computer with paying for additional iCloud storage.
if the storage refers to that on your iOS device as in there is not enough storage to update, then you have two options and neither option involves adding more storage since the amount of storage on an iOS devoce is fixed. One option is to delete stuff from your device to free up more space. The second option is to complete the update while your devoce is connected to your computer running the latest version of iTunes. When you do that the update is downloaded to your computer and extracted there so it doesn't require as much free space on your iOS device.

Lost all my important bookmarks when I upgraded to Firefox 4. I want the old Firefox AND my bookmarks back!!!

I just upgraded to Firefox 4 and in the process lost all my important bookmarks. Not acceptable!! How do I get the old version of Firefox back including ALL my old bookmarks?

This can be caused by a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

I lost all of my contacts when I updated to iOs7. I need help.

How can I retrieve all of my contacts since I updated to ios7..Need Help!

What settings were in your iTunes for syncing contacts? Had you made any changes to a section on the computer you were syncing contacts with? Were you using iCloud to sync contacts, or someting like Address Book, or Windows Contacts, or Outlook?
What "new operating system glytch" are you referring to? I have no trouble with my device and iOS 7.

If you're in the US, you might download them again for free: Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I lost now ...I cant beleive it would delete everything.....can I time it perfect and do a computer restore to that time?????there has to be those photos someplace!! Please help!

Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)
