Lost my phone contacts and email usage while downloading itunes transferring music from itouch. How do I fix it?

Why did I lose my iphone contacts and can't get or send mail after synching my itunes from my itouch? How can I get it back? Especially the mail.

Check to see if you have a back up of the phone prior to when you lost this content (edit>preferences>devices). If so preserve this back up by putting a check mark in the "prevent ipods, ipads and iphones from syncing auto" box before plugging in your phone, then do a restore using that back up.

Hi There ,
Lost all my contacts and emails just want to restore back!
thank you

If you had never synced it before, you may have the options for "Sync Address Book Contacts" selected and not have your contacts in your address book on your computer. Hopefully you have a backup of your contacts somewhere that you can restore to (iCloud Maybe?). BTW, if you plug in your iPhone to your computer, open iTunes and click your phone. (Whatever you named it) You can click the second option name "Info" and see your options for contacts calendars, etc..

I have deleted all photos from my iphone and the usage is still showing 6.6GB used. How do I fix this?

I have deleted all photos from my iphone and the usage is still showing 6.6GB used. I have connected via my computer and no pictures are shown. I have also gone into all my photo apps and no photos are saved. How do I resolved this?

If you deleted photos from the Camra Roll of the photos app they are not deleted immediately. Instead they are moved to the Recently Deleted album where they will remain for 30 days. This feature was added because so many people deleted photos then wanted then back.
To completely delete those photos quickly go to the Recently Deleted album and delete them from there.

My partner and I each have an iTouch and one iMac. Our iTunes only recognizes my iTouch - how do we use two iTouches on one iMac?

iTunes can manage any number of iDevices separately. Be sure each has a different name. You can only connect one at a time. Please get the IPod Touch user guide.

I updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 6. Everything on my phone - photos, icons, email, wallpaper . . . everything - appears in negative. How can I fix this?

This makes it incredibly difficult and in some cases impossible to view/read things on my phone. Very upsetting!

My husband and I both have iphones and share the same apple id. Everything was working fine until I synced his phone which lost all his contacts and pictures and gave him my info. I then used verizon's contact retreival app and got his contacts back

My husband and I both have iphones and everything was ok until I synced his phone and lost all his contacts and pixs. I downloaded verizon's contact retreival app and got his contacts back but now his contacts keep overwriting mine. I can sync my phone and get my contacts back but within a few hours, his show up again. We use the same apple id for purchases. What can I do?

Are you sharing the same iCloud account (in Settings>iCloud)? And do you both have Contacts turned to On in Settings>iCloud?

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.

Then make sure you sync everything to your computer so you do not lose it.

Contacts are synced with a compatible programme in the computer; in the iCloud or with Yahoo and Google Mail. You can directly "edit" a contact on the phone and/or within the programme that you are syncing your contacts with.
Have you configured/setup mails on your iPhone? If yes, check the contents of the mail account(s) individually. (including iCloud) from SETTINGS - MAILS, CONTACTS, CALENDARS
"Contacts" if chosen from the mail account (s) would add email addresses to your contacts.

My iPhone 4 was connected to my wife's iTunes account in error and then disconnected in the middle of the sync. I lost my phone contacts

my iPhone 4 was connected to my wife's iTunes account in error and disconnected in the middle of the sync. I lost all my phone contacts and photos on my phone. Is there a way to recover them? I tried to recover from an earlier date and that failed. Any suggestions?

If you go to iTunes on your computer click on the App Store and scroll all the way down . In the bottom right of the screen is a map logo. Click on that and then chose the flag for the country you want

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
A lot more detail is needed to understand your issue...for instance:
Your specific BB Model
Your specific BB OS (all 4 octets)
Your DTM version (again, 4 octets)
Your PC PIM version
Your PC OS version
Good luck and let us know!

Trying to download my pictures from vacation and my phone automatically reset to origional setting and I lost all my contacts and pictures. Is there any way to restore my phone back to today's date.

I just lost all my contacts and pictures from vacation trying to download them to my computer because my phone reset to my origional sitting. Is there a way to reset my phone back to today date or recover my pictures?

In short. No, you cannot unsync. If you had a back up from your old iPhone you cand restore from a back up.
In iTunes go to Edit > Preferences > Devices > and select the latest back up.
Before you synced your phone did you have it set up with the PhotoStream or iCloud? The pictures would be saved there. Or if you had them sync to a file on your computer.

How do you combine iMessage sent to phone number and email?

I talk to someone who sends me imessages to my phone number from their phone, and also from their ipad to my email. Both phone number and email are under the same contact. But the mesages go into 2 different threads. Id like to combine them since being under the same contact they show up exactly the same in the messages list.. so i cant tell if im messaging the ipad or the phone..
ideally id like to write a message to that contact and it would go to both their ipad and iphone...
anyways.. how do I combine them?

This is possible and you can also send and receive iMessages to your MacBook from one phone number without having to use any email address whatsoever. This also means you will have one chat thread with all of your messages not two.
Anyone will tell you that I am a hardcore Apple Fan, however, sometimes they lack in the instructions area. For a while now I have had a problem with iMessages being sent from my MacBook. I could send an iMessage from my phone with no problem and my friend would receive it from my phone number however, the problem would arise when I would send a iMessage from my MacBook to to the same friend and a new thread would be created, so in essence she would have two different messages for me, one from my phone number and one from my email. After numerous attempts of contacting Apple Customer Service with no avail, I eventually figured it out on my own. I did aggrate some friends because I had to send messages relentlessly. In the end I found a solution and here are the instructions.
You’re going to go into iMessage on your computer, go to messages in the top left, click on preferences and then click on accounts. Look under “you can be reached for messages at” you should see your email and or your phone number.
If you do not see your phone number you need to add it to your account at this site. “https://appleid.apple.com/” click on manage your Apple ID and then sign in. After you sign in you will go to another screen and on your left you’ll see a list of choices click on phone numbers. Add your phone number and click save changes. It usually takes a few seconds for your iMessage account to update. Completely quit iMessage in the toolbar and then reopen it and go back into messaging preferences and then accounts.
After that has been done your phone number should now be added to the “you can be reached for messages at” section. Click on your phone number and then uncheck your email address.
Then go into your iPhone settings, messages, then scroll down to send and receive. Uncheck any email, only your phone number should have a checkmark, if your phone number does not have a checkmark... check it. You should receive a pop-up on your iPhone saying so-and-so’s MacBook is now using “insert phone number here” for iMessages.
