Lost Contacts in My iphone 4s

Today, I was entering a contact into my phone when I lost all my contacts except for 1 contact group with about 4 numbers.  How do I get all contacts back?

Here is something what may help you. http://www.ehow.com/how_5651802_recover-lost-contacts-iphone.html
I've never tried it, but it probably should work just fine Hope I helped.

  • I found out that I have some lost contacts on my iphone 5s, they dont appear when I search but if the contact calls me I see their name. How can I get those contacts to be on the list?

    You could check settings > mail contacts and calandars and see if there are any accounts (like icloud gmail yahoo) listed and if they have contacts on. Its possible if contacts were synced to one of these accounts that turning them back on will recover the missing contacts.

    hi me kashif Hello people,
    I lost all my contacts on my iPhone. Facebook contacts integration is turned off. When I got to know that I have no contacts on my iPhone. I checked my settings and iCloud backup and contacts on iCloud (in settings) were off.
    Is there a solution to get all my contacts back? Please help me. I want my contacts back, as soon as possible.
    Thank you in advance.

    Unless as part of a backup, or stored somewhere else, they are gone.
    Your son needs his own Apple ID for iCloud, FaceTime & iMessage. He can continue to use yours for iTunes content, but for everything else, he needs his own.
    When you did what you did, as far as iCloud knows, this is the same person with multiple devices, and that's they way things are supposed to work: keep everything in sync.

    Take it back where you got and and get your money back.
    As has been pointed out, if there was a "previous owner", the phone is not "new". Thephone you purchased is most likely stolen. If whoever you bought it from won't give you your money back, turn it over to the police.

    Hello evanfromvic
    If you have a back up in iTunes, you can restore from that back up. The article below will assist with getting that backup restored.

  • Need help restoring AddressBook contacts (lost on sync with iphone)

    Hi,
    Just got a new iPhone 3GS, and have .mac. I had duplicate contacts in my iphone. To fix the problem, I deleted one of each, then synced my phone. I got the warning that 5% or more contacts would change, and continued (50% should change, based on my assumptions). I lost all my contacts. I tried to restore in iTunes using "Restore from backup" but only some of the contacts came back. Is there any way to recover the rest of the lost data?
    Thanks for your help.

  • Lost my contacts on my iphone 5

    Lost some of my contacts on my iphone 5. Hv backed up to icloud but can't find them there too. Strangely, these are the newly added contacts..

    If the contacts are no longer on icloud.com, you may be able to recover them from your iCloud backup by following the steps in this user tip: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841.

  • Lost contacts on iphone 4 and no automatic synchro anymore

    Dear all,
    I lost most of my contacts on my iphone 4.
    For the other, I have phone numbers only.
    Only a part of my contacts are still present in my contact list.
    Another issue, when I link my iphone to my laptop, it did not synchronise as before. Any suggestion to fix this issue.
    I purchased a macbook pro recently, any link between both situations ?
    Thanks a lot for your support.

  • IPhone 4s lost contacts & won't restore

    I Recently lost all my contacts on my 4s & have tried 5 times to restore it but it continues to lock up.
    Last night I was able to retrieve some thru a partial restore ( locked up again so I rebooted the iPhone)
    to to find most contacts. Then not 5 mins later they where gone again just by hitting any key. I've tried
    sync again with no luck. Also tried icloud backup but no luck & it only has some of my contacts which
    doesnt make much sense. I also removed the SIM card & put it back in.
    I tried turning off/on contacts button that Didn't work either. Can anyone help or is this just a complete
    loss! Thx 4 reading

    You can try iPhone Data Recovery. You are provided three ways to restore contacts on iPhone, which are recovering them directly on iPhone, from an iPhone backup,and from iCloud backup files.What you have to do is very simple.
    Step 1.Install iPhone Data Recovery and connect your iPhone to your computer.
    Step 2. Choose a suitable mode to continue
    You can choose "Recover from iOS Device", "Recover Deleted contacts from iTunes" or "Restore Contacts from iCloud". You can choose a favorable mode to continue the progress.
    Step 3. Click "Scan" your iPhone
    Step 4. Preview the contacts and recover deleted them from iPhone
    I believe you can retrieve your lost contacts.

  • HT1386 i lost all my contacts in my iphone 4  how to sync conacts

    i lost all my contacts in my iphone 4  how to sync conacts through itunes

    Two way:
    - If they are in the calender ap/program on the computer just sync them from there back to the iPod.
    - Restore the iPod from backup. Make sure that autosyncing is off otherwise, when you connect the iPod to the computer iTunes will backup the iPod without the contacts.   To turnoff go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices anbd change the box that says: Prevent iPods....syncing".
