My contacts are randomly disappearing on my iPhone. How do I fix it?
It could be something with your iCloud. Go to iCloud.com, sign in, and see if your contacts are there. If they are, then try going into Settings > iCloud and turning off Contacts, restart your phone, then turning Contacts back on again. If that doesn't work, delete your iCloud account from your phone, and add your iCloud account back on. If THAT doesn't work, go to settings > reset > reset network settings, reconnect to your wifi network, and that should do it.

While trying to set up ICloud some of my contacts have been wiped out and all contacts are showing up with number only
How do I recover the lost contacts and get contact names to show instead on just number?Shiv1611 wrote:
Though i am still gona try using the same Itunes. Will same Itunes support two apple ids.
That depends on what you mean. If you mean two iTunes Store accounts, no. Only one Apple ID can be logged into the iTunes Store at a time and if automatic download, iTunes Match or re-downloading of content is used the ID can not be changed for 90 days.

So i guess if i solve my goof up on creating different apple IDs and setting her phone as a new one .. according to you that shall do the trick.
But i have a question here in that case what happens to all the applications that have been purchased on my Id ? Wont i be needing them to be purchased/downloaded again in the new id?
If you previously had been using the same Apple ID for iTunes Store purchases for both of you there is no reason to change what you've been doing. If this is your wife's first iPhone, and you want to share the iTunes Store account just don't use the new Apple ID you created. As long as there are no purchases on it there's nothing to worry about. -
I am using an apple email account and my emails are randomly disappearing before I get a chance to read them. They are not anywhere on my device, not trash, junk etc. The only solution from apple has been to resend me the past 7 days of email in order for me to retrieve the missing emails. This has taken me hours on the phone with apple support with no solution. I just don't know what to do. They have gone over the settings with me and nothing has solved the problem. I don't know where to start since it is happening on all my devices.
Control-click on the background of the view all pages window and select "Preview Calendar" from the contextual menu.
You can also save the pdf as a file to compare to the printed calendar. If the two names are visible in the pdf file then the printed copy should show them. Contact Apple for a refund. Apple Print Products - Apple Store (U.S.) -
My Notes are randomly disappearing on IPhone 4
My Notes are randomly disappearing on IPhone 4; is there anyway to retrieve them?
I have a Verizon iPhone 5 and just had a note disappear before my eyes...
I opened the app, was looking at the note, and it simply vanished...the app did not crash, and it is no longer listed in my list of notes...
This is not the first time my notes have gone missing with this new phone...never had this issue with my old iPhone 4...
Frustrating to say the least... -
hey everyone..i have attached my iphone 4 to lappy after a long time..itunes syncd all contacts now contacts are no longer in my phone.how to get them back in my ph.pls reply
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:

My yahoo contacts are not updating on my iphone
for the last several weeks, changes i have made to my yahoo contacts are not updating on my iphone. any idea why this may be?
That was the first thing I checked, but it wasn't the problem. A few days later the same thing happened to her daughter's 3gs. I don't know if the problem is on Yahoo's end or on apple's. For the time being, I turned off yahoo contact syncing and told her to put her contacts in manually.

My calander and contacts are syncing on ipad and iphone but not my photos.
my calander and contacts are syncing on ipad and iphone but not my photos.
Make sure you are entering the contacts and calendar events on your iCloud account. On your iPad, check Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar. Here make sure you have selected an iCloud calendar as your default, and not something else like On My iPad, Google Calendar, and exchange account calendar, etc.
Then go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the contacts section) and make sure you have selected iCloud as your default. (If you don't see this settings, this isn't the problem).
If your settings for your calendar is correct on your iPad and it still won't sync new calendar events to your phone, go to icloud.com from your computer and enter any missing calendar events on your iPad that are not on your calendar on icloud.com. Once your iCloud calendar is up to date, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Calendars to Off, choose Delete from My iPad when prompted, then after a minute or so turn Calendars back to On to sync your iCloud calendars back to your phone. Then enter a new event on your iPad and confirm that it syncs to icloud.com now.
If your settings for your contacts are correct on your iPad and it still won't sync new contacts to your phone, do the same thing for Contacts (add any missing contacts to icloud.com, turn iCloud syncing off, choose Delete from My iPhone, after a minute turn contact syncing back on, try adding a new contacts to confirm that it syncs). -
HT204150 microsoft outlook contacts are not uploading to icloud? how do I get it to upload?
My Microsoft outlook contacts are not uploading to icloud.. how do I correct this ?
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...... -

In Contacts, I don't have any duplicates, but in iMessage contacts on iMac in Mountain Lion, the contacts it provides for a new message are all doubles. Why and how can I fix?
I also notice that each contact says iCloud in it twice, but when I go to iCloud.com, there are no duplicates either. Help..mdd770,
Try Contacts>Preferences...>Accounts...remove {-}/re-add {+}your iCloud account.
If that is not successful, follow the steps listed in iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Contacts. -

You need to contact iTunes support and send an email by following the link I posted.
Simply going there does nothing. -
My phone displays numbers instead of contact names for incoming calls and text - how do I fix?
My phone displays numbers instead of contact names for incoming calls and text - how do I fix? It used to display the names if there was a contact listed, now it just shows numbers regardless of whether or not the number corresponds to a contact name in the contact list. Can anyone help? I googled this problem and lots of folks have experienced it, however there is not a consensus for a resolution.
Alexandribill, I have been having the exact same issue. I got a new phone and restored my contacts. If the # doesn't have the area code first then the name isn't shown. I just added my husbands area code to my phone and called my phone from his and now his name shows up...Ugh, I have to go through and manually add the area code to all my contacts....
I'd say Verizon needs to rewrite their program to include the area code in the restoring from backup process! -
HT4839 I cant find the cellular data setting on my iphone how i can fix it
i cant find the cellular data setting on my iphone
how i can fix it
because I can't use the internet with my iphone right nowIf you go into Settings>General>Network, you should still be able to access VPN settings. My listings show Cellular Data, Data Roaming, Set Up Personal Hotspot, VPN and Wi-Fi. I do not use Personal Hotspot (tethering) so mine says Setup. However, VPN settings are different than cellular data settings. Not sure which you are asking about now.
