My contacts have disappeared off my iphone 5s

Hi
My contacts have disappeared from my iphone 5s for no reason and dont know how to get them back, could you please help?

Are these iCloud contatcs?
Are all your contacts available when you sign into iCloud.com with your Apple ID from a web browser on your computer?
If so, you can force a re-push from iCloud.com:
On your phone: Settings > iCloud > Turn Contacts off > wait fro it to finish then turn them back on.

My contacts have disappeared of my iPhone 4 after I tried a backup to iCloud. Can I recover these ?

My contacts have disappeared of my iPhone 4 after I tried a backup to iCloud. Can I recover these ?

Backups do not cause contacts to disappear.
Why do you believe this has occurred?
Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service like iCloud/Exchange.

My contacts have disappeared from my iphone 4s - help please!!!!

My contacts have suddenly disappeared - except for 42 of them (I had hundreds) Also, my recent additions to my calendar are gone.

You can subscribe to iTunes Match, which will make all of your ripped music available via iCloud. See: iCloud: iTunes Match

OK, I understand. Try this ... it's much safer. It will simply restore your backup, but not do anything to your iOS:
While your iPhone is plugged in to iTunes, right click on the iPhone icon on the left side of the iTunes display.
Choose "Restore from backup ..." from the pop-up menu that appears.
Again, what this will do is place that backup back on your iPhone without changing iOS. So you should be very confident in the backup contents before doing this.

How do I find all my contacts that have disappeared from my iphone and computer?

I have an iphone 4s IOS 8.02 and a 27" late 2013 Imac OSX 10.9.5. All my contacts have disappeared.
Where did they go? How do I get them back?

If you are syncing them with iCloud, try going to Settings>iCloud on your phone, turn Contacts off, choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted, then turn it back on and choose Merge.
If that didn't restore them, you may be able to restore them from your iCloud backup by following this user tip: Recovering deleted iCloud contacts from an iCloud backup.

Updated iphone 4s to iOS 8.1.2, then enabled iCloud and my contacts have disappeared!!

I recently updated to iOS 8.1.2 on my iphone 4s. After about a week, I enabled iCloud for the first time. This afternoon I noticed a phone number instead of a name when I received a call, and then discovered all my contacts have disappeared! Any ideas how to restore without doing a full restore of the backup I did before I upgraded the OS. How do I sync my most recent backup of only my contacts on itunes with the (empty) contacts on my iPhone? My contacts list contains many vital details, such as addresses, email addresses, and alternate phone numbers and I don't understand how Apple could permit such a thing to happen.

My iPhone 4s has the latest OS update and this morning for no reason all my contacts have disappeared. Is there a fix or reason for this?

My iPhone 4s has the latest OS update and this morning for no reason all my contacts have disappeared. Is there a fix or reason for this?

After some troubleshooting, I decided to order a new battery. I replaced the battery and was then able to get it to restore, however--after I restore it and it comes time to restart the phone, it gets stuck and doesn't turn on.
Sorry, your repair ruined the iPhone.
She does not have apple care and even though she loved this device, she isn't going to buy another iPhone because of all the problems shes had with this one (it's just over a year old).
After you ruined the iPhone with DIY, Apple won't touch it anymore. You should have asked before all these had happened.
I'm an android user myself and I love rooting/flashing new ROMS, so if jailbreaking her phone or doing some kind of super-restore with 3rd party programs might help, I'm all for it-
Yeah, all Android user can think of is Jailbreaking, read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743

I recently updated a friends iPhone 3 to I cloud , however some contacts have disappeared. These seem to be the ones that were added onto her phone and not her sim. As I have done a sim import. This is the first time she has ever done a back up and sync.

I just got a new iMac. I set it up and all of my contacts have disappeared. They have disappeared on my iPhone and my mac book air as well. How do I get them back?

All contacts have disapppeared from my iPhone, my mac book air and my new iMac. How do I get back. I assume it has something to with iCloud. Thank you.

Use your computer's backup to transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer per the instructions included with this link, or do the same with both computers networked in some fashion, which shouldn't be hard to do if both computers are connected to the same wireless network.

IPhone 4s lot of my contacts have disappeared.

Lot of my contacts have disappeared without any reason. What can I do?

Same thing has happened to me !! My Facebook app kept crashing so I turned my phone off and on, and after that all my contacts were gone. I wasn't near a computer nor know if my contact book has been synced.
Did you manage to get your contacts back?

Some contacts have disappeared from my phone contacts. They are still in the phone because if someone calls me their name appears and if i search in text for contacts they are still there - but if i search in phone contacts they are not there, Help

Some contacts have disappeared from my phone. Not all just random ones. They are still in the phone because if someone (who has disappeared from my phone contacts calls me their name appears and if i search in text messages for contacts they are still there - but if i search in phone contacts they are not there, Help!

But once again, I do not want to lose my other texts, app progress, and photos. I could sync the photos but i would still lose the app progress and texts. I would only restore if it was the only option left, but the other space, as already stated, isnt the main concern. The main concern is those 'deleted' texts. If they go, then a good size chunk of the other space goes. I know you CAN delete texts for good. It worked fine before. All i want to know is why its not working for me now, and how to fix it.
I also know that when you delete texts on your iphone, they get marked for deletion, however they stay on your device (thats why they show up when you search for them.) then when you sync your device with itunes, the texts marked for deletion should disappear. When i synced they didnt disappear. Thats what i need an explanation/solution for. Why the texts marked for deletion didnt get fully deleted after the sync.

My contacts have disappeared

I just went to look up an address on my iPhone and all my contacts have disappeared. My groups are there but ALL contacts are gone. Went to check my MacBook and they have disappeared from the iPhone as well. I am using Lion and iCloud. This is a disaster!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
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.

My contacts have disappeared this morning, I backed up yesterday but dont know where the back up is

the iphone is designed to be synced to your computer. You should have been syncing your contacts with Outlook, Address Book for example from day one.
Have you failed to do this?
"* Your contacts are part of the backup to preserve recent calls and favorites lists. Back up your contacts to a supported personal information manager (PIM), iCloud, or another cloud-based service to avoid any potential contact data loss."
