Lost my contacts on my iphone after activating iCloud. How do I retrieve my contacts back?

I have recently turned on iCloud on my phone, however because of it, I lost my contacts, calendar events and notes. I turned back off the notes, contacts and calendar on my phone. My calendar events and notes came back, but my contacts were never restored. How do I get my contacts back?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Have you tried turning contacts syncing back on and then off again.

This has happened to me too!
I have lost all text messages, photos, notes and calendar dates. Also some of the apps.
I think it was my second time of syncing. Also I tunes keeps opening when no apple prod is connected, and a dialogue box tells me it cannot find the I phone. When it is not connected?..
Any news would be good news

Hi sona ayanikalath,
Welcome to the Apple family! I understand that you are experiencing some issues with your new iPhone 6. Can you clarify your issues a bit more? With the information provided, I recommend restarting the settings application as well as your iPhone:

After activating iCloud Safari gets troublesome slow

On my MacPro a clean install gets perfect performance.
Only after activating iCloud both Mail & Safari have problems. Mail gets unreliable with exchange 2010, ie deleted mails keep coming back.
Safari takes ages to load pages. On another machine at the same time these pages have no problem at all.
I repeated the installation proces on a clean disk with reproducable results.
On my MacBookPro en IMac these problems do _not_ occur.

10.8.2 seems to do the job

I hit Forget Network and now cannot get back onto my wireless home network. All of my other computers and iphones are fine. How do I get the network back? It shows in my list of networks but when I use the password and try to join it says not connected.

See if the iPad will accept the password after you restart it. It's worth a try.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
You could also try a reset as well.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

I downloded music using a different apple id on my ipad then i changed my id to match my iphone but it isnt showing my music i bought with my other id on icloud. how can i get my music back!?

i downloded music using a different apple id on my ipad then i changed my id on my ipad to match my iphone but it isnt showing my music i bought with my old ipad apple id on icloud. how can i get my music back!?

It won't show on iCloud because iCloud is associated with a specific Apple ID. The music should be on your computer's iTunes and a Sync will put it on the iPad (be sure to configure iTunes properly). If you want to get it from iCloud, I think that you need to temporarily change your ID back to the old one but I've never done that myself.

Yes, I got that. My question was "are you using the same iTunes account to access music purchased from the Store?" I think your answer is "yes".

iTunes is not designed to do that. However, this user tip from tt2 may help you recover your music from your iPod, although it's not a simple process: Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
Ignore any references in the tip to iOS devices, the Classic does not use iOS. The tip has a list of software, including the TouchCopy referred to by tbirdvet that may assist you in recovering your music.

I called AT&T at 1-800-331-0500 and asked for IPad support. They are going to send me a new SIM card. This will solve the problem. Thanks for your help.

If you deleted the photos from photo stream they are gone.
My Photo Stream has a 30 day 1000 photo limit on the server. If you just turned it off then turning Settings/Photos & Camera/My Photo Stream back on will reload the photos left on the server, the rest are gone.
