My contacts and photos when I backup does it save in my ipad?

I Want to reset my ipad but I don't want to backup but I want my photos and contact does my photos and contact saves in iCloud?
thanks a lot.

Only if you have that option enabled. If you are on Windows you can access your photos quickly by opening your ipad from My Computer. It opens like a normal usb. If you are on Mac you can save your photos from iPhoto. If you are on Linux it depends on your distro, however most of the times it's kinda like Windows. As for your contacts when you connect your ipad to your itunes search for the Info tab, and select the Synchronize Tab

Lost contacts and photos during a backup. Can I retrieve them without a new backup?

I plugged in my husband's phone to add music and it made me update iTunes before doing so. I did and it restored my husband's phone to an old backup from a while ago. He lost all his new contacts and photos, which include our daughter's birth that was this week. I'm so mad right now. Is there any way to recover these without a current backup?

If you had an IMAP mail account then all your emails are stored on the server, so install Thunderbird and create the IMAP mail account to see folders and emails on the server.
If you had a POP mail account then all of your emails were stored on the computer and you should have been creating regular backups of your Profile folder or at least created a backup of your Profile (and any other documents / images etc on your computer ) before wiping the computer/reformatting and reinstalling OS. So you can use the backup to reinstall the Profile. If you used MozBackup tool to create the *.psv file, then reinstall MozBacktool and use it to restore the Profile.

If you did not create a backup of the Profile, but backed up/saved emails as .eml files saved to an external device, then you could use this addon to put those .eml files back into the new Profile.

My contacts and photos won't sync from my iPhone to my iPad air, is there anything I can do? And could it b due to my iCloud storage being full on my phone not being backed up for a few months? Even the bits that were originally backed up haven't synced,

Any advice would b gratefully recieved!

BEST BUY NOT STANDING BY THEIR EXCHANGE/RETURN POLICY..
WHen I first attempted to exchange, I was well under BEST BUY return policy of 30 days...but wouldn't you know they finally responded to me stating they would not be able to offer me an exchange because NOW the return term time had NOW expired....
SO they waited until my return period had expired to reply and tell me they couldn't and wouldn't exchange it
because my return/exchange period had expired...
Well then that's clearly illegal isn't it? Contact the TN Attorney General's office.

Restore the iPhone from your backup.
See this -> http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
Then make sure you sync everything to your computer so you do not lose it.

HT1414 Is there any way to restore i-Phone contacts and photos from an earlier (not most recent) backup?

When I updated my i-Phone's version, I lost all my contacts and photos. Although I had a back-up of them, the backup disappeared when another backup was done automatically when the phone synced automatically at a later date. Is there any way to access an earlier backup, even if it is not showing under Devices in iTunes or in the Backup folder in the appropriate Apple folder under the computer's Documents and Settings?

Please start your own thread rather than by replying to a threadjacker in a post that's been dormant for over six months, especially as you couldn't have been updating to any version of iOS 5. Use a properly descriptive subject line, explain the problem you're having, what error messages you've gotten and what steps you've taken to so far to troubleshoot.
Best of luck.

There are many ways to back up photos and contacts on an iPhone:
Photos - copy them to your computer with a USB cable; the phone will appear in Windows or Mac as a digital camera.
Photos - Enable Photo Stream, which saves them to iCloud and syncs to your computers(s)
Contacts - set to sync to any contact app on your computer (e.g., Outlook, Address Book)
Contacts - Enable sync to iCloud. This is real time and will always be up to date
Everything on the phone (including contacts and photos) - Back up to iTunes on your computer
Everything on the phone - Back up to iCloud
All of these are described in the manual.
If you did not do ANY of these then the contents are already lost.

TS4062 I lost all of my contacts and notes when attempting to move over music. When I try to restore the backup the day I want to restore to is not present. I do see a copy on my I cloud but I can't seem to retrieve it. What can I do?

Hi bluegrandpanash,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you backed up your iPhone to iCloud before updating the software, first try the steps under "Restore from an iCloud backup" in this article to recover your data:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

Help! iPhone 5 works with iCloud for Contacts and Photo Stream, but Not Music!

Okay, totally stumped! I have an iPhone 5, which, new, I restored from wife's iPhone 4 backup, remotely (3 Months ago). I just signed into our family Apple ID, chose the most recent backup, and did a restore. So, contacts, and photos and Apps backup to the cloud instantly, which is shared on all devices. Likewise, when my wife takes a phone picture, I can see it in the stream: all without doing an iTunes Sync. My phone's settings have my number associated with my contact card, so the phone doesn't "think" it is my wife's phone.
The dilemna: iCloud won't send my phone new music purchases from our iMac, or iPad. My phone has it's own physical identity on Find My iPhone, but interestingly, it does not appear in the list of devices, in the "Manage my Devices" section when I am signed into iTunes with my Apple ID. Furthermore, even though I have the phone settings to Sync with iTunes wirelessly, when plugged into AC power, with iTunes on, the iPhone 5 does initiate backups with iTunes; even after rebooting iTunes. My phone does not appear in the list of devices for iTunes, AND the only way I can sync with my computer is with the USB/Lightning cable. Even then, I do not get music purchases to load onto my iPhone which i have bought on my computer.
Currently running Mac OSX 10.7.5 on my iMac and IOS 6.1 on my iPhone5.
Appreciate any help,
THANKS

The way I do that is to organize them on my computer. I periodically import all of the Camera Roll to the computer. That is a good thing to do to insure you have a copy in case of loss of the phone or other problem, even if you backup the phone. Import can be done by methods described in iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
Once they are on the computer I organize them in iPhoto on my Mac. If you have a Windows computer you can organize them in folders. Once they are on the computer I delete them all from the Camera Roll on the phone to make it easier next time -- i.e., the Camera Roll always only contains the photos that I haven't yet organized.
I only want some of the pictures that I am keeping to be sent back to the phone, so in Windows I made a second copy of those (in iPhoto on a Mac I use Albums instead). I had a main folder (e.g. "Photos for iPhone") and subfolders (only 1 level below the main folder) with various topics. Then use iTunes to sync the photos back to the phone (selecting the main folder). iTunes: Syncing photos
The end result is that they are organized in Albums on the phone, are not in the Camera Roll, and I have a copy of them on my computer.

I have lost my contact and photos after downlaod new ios

i have lost my contact and photo on my iphon 4 after daownload new ios how i c an return back thanks

Downgrading an iOS is not supported by Apple but that would not bring the items back anyway.
What photos are you talking about? If they were synced to the iPod then you will have to get them from the computer from which they were synced. If the photos were taken by or saved to the iPod then they should be in the backup. The same with notes.
One the computr go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and look at the da and time of the iPod backup. If it corresponds to before the update was performed or at the beginning of the update then the itmes should be in the backup. Restore theiPod from backup. Make sure thatyou have auto syning turned off other wise when ou connect the iPod to the computer iTunes will backup the iPod which does not have the items and delete the old backup. To turn off, go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that say Prevent iPods.... syncing.

How can I sync my new iPhone 4S to calendar, contacts, and photos on my MacBook?

Just bought my first iPhone after 2 years as an Android user. My 2008 MacBook would never talk to the Android, but now - they tell me - I can backup my phone onto my computer and share contacts, calendar and photos with the computer.
I've plugged the phone into the computer but the computer's Finder doesn't show it. And the phone indicates it's charging but doesn't show any way to swap data.
I feel like I'm missing something really basic ... but what?

All of this is handled through iTunes. You must have iTunes installed on the comptuer. Also, you will not be able to see any files in Finder, as the iPhone does not give you access to that information. The only time you will ever see anything from the iPhone in Finder is if you have photos in the Camera Roll.
After you download and install iTunes, you would set up syncing your device with specific apps on the computer, to handle calendar, contacts, and photos. You might want to start out by thumbing through the User Guide here: http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf

ICloud deleted all my contacts and photos. How can I get it back?

All my contacts and photos from my iPhone and from my ICloud webpage are gone.
I have an ICloud backup from yesterday morning so i tried restoring, but my contacts disappeared again after a few seconds. It says that i have 1000 photos, but I can't see them. All the pictures are grey and when I click on one it just says "loading" and nothing happens.
I kept getting a message to enter my ICloud password, so i did and maybe that could be the reason, or maybe it's because I charged my phone on my new macbook and it somehow deleted it all.
I don't have an ITunes backup, but if I have an old ICloud backup, shouldn't it be possible to get it all back?
I hope someone can help. Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Photos don't restore from back up, they restore after back up has completed, so it's quite normal to have to wait a while, especially if you don't have a reliable network.
To restore from a back up made through iTunes, follow these instructions.
To restore from a back up made through iCloud, try the following:
The difficulty in restoring iCloud data from a back up is that the back up is older than the current version on iCloud and anything that is restored gets removed again when an iCloud sync occurs.
Ensure the device is connected to your local network.
Start the restore from iCloud back up.
Allow the devices settings to restore (watch for the confirmation of completion).
As the apps begin to restore pull the connection to your router WAN port (the one that goes to the telephone point).
Wait for the time out confirmation.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn off contact syncing (keep contacts when prompted).
Reconnect the router to the internet and let the restore process complete.
Delete any iCloud contacts from iCloud.com on a computer.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn on contact syncing (merge contacts when prompted).
May I suggest that you carry out a back up to iTunes before you try anything, that way should things become even worse, you can at least restore back to where you are now.

HT4623 Why on earth don't you tell people to back up contacts and photos before they update software? There was no mention of the need to back up until it was too late. I have lost hundreds of valuable phone numbers and photographs.

The update process DOES back up contacts and photos, unless you interrupted the backup. The manual tells you to sync contacts to an app on your computer, and to import photos regularly to your computer. So Apple DID tell you to back up, you just didn't bother to read it.
If you didn't sync yet (and even if you did) connect the phone to your computer, right click on its name, and choose "Restore from Backup". If there's more than one backup choose the one with a timestamp before you updated.

I updated my iphone all my contacts and photos are gone. How can I retrieve them?

Have you failed to use the device as designed?
If using the iPhone as designed, contacts are synced with a supported application on the computer or a cloud service. Pictures taken with the device would be copied off to the computer on a regular basis.
If you have been using the device as designed, simply sync the content back.
If you have not been using the device as designed, you can try restoring from the most recent backup. However, if that does not restore them, they are gone.

Iphone contacts and photos is not syncing to iCloud

iphone contacts and photos is not syncing to iCloud

I also have this problem, just from the iPhone 5s which makes my life crazy, too.
The problem of having multiple devices doesn't seem to help, but the odd part is when everything I am doing is correct, it still doesn't sync like it used to do before iCloud, and when we had to USB wire connect the iPhone to the Laptop to make contacts sync.
Might I add that I am not using MAIL on my LAPTOP?
but ?Britty sounds like her issue is easier as gmail sometimes can create duplicates so you are in good if you are not having that problem or nightmare...
IF ANYONE ELSE can PLEASE ADD to this THREAD? I would be thankful
as there seems to be a TRENDING on iPhone 5s not syncing with other devices or backwards.....(I have added contacts to the iPhone 5s and they never get added to the iCloud or the iPad or the Addressbook or CONTACTS on the LAPTOP....
This should be working and I have checked the CONTACTS on the laptop GROUPS , iCloud, vs ALL ON MY MAC
it just isn't syncing and in some cases I am getting a WEB DAV error or CAL error...-1
what is that? iCloud will not sync all contacts?
something is crazy
but I want to remain at 10.8 MOUNTAIN LION and not upgrade to MAVERICKS......or use MAIL on my LAPTOP...just CONTACTS ONLY......

My contacts and photos when I backup does it save in my ipad?
