recently did an upgrade and lost all my contacts

Try to check if iTunes made a backup before upgrading the phone. You can check via iTunes or use iPhone Backup Extractor. If there is, you can restore from backup to get your contacts back or simply extract them using the iPhone Backup Extractor. It's worth a try, good luck!

    i recently did an up grade on my ipod touch  and lost all of my music (1700 songs). all of my music wason my ipod. i have an external hard drive with most of my songs (1400 songs) on it.  through playing around and just trying to fiquire it out, i managed to get the music from the external hard drive to my ipod touch. the problem that i just found out is that i cant play those songs from my computer unless my iopd is connected to the computer. when i try to play a song, it gives me thiserror message " THIS SONG CAN NOT BE USED BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL FILE COULD NOT BE FOUND. WOULD YOU LIKE TO LOCATE IT. please help.what did i do wrong?

    To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
    Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them.

  • HT4994 i did the recent upgrade for my iphone 4s (ios6) and lost all my contacts.  How do I get them back?  They are stored on my pc on microsoft outlook

    I did the ios6 upgrade on my iphone 4s and lost all my contacts.  Can I get them back?  They are stored on my pc on microsoft outlook.  thanks

    Thanks, but I checked iCloud and it has none of them.
    If it backed up to my laptop, that died and I just got the new computer. The one that's crashed won't even boot, so there's no way to even tell if it was syncing the contacts along with all the phone photos. Literally happened at the same time - it was because I had the new computer that I was finally able to pull the photos off the phone and make room for the upgrade. It had refused to upgrade for lack of space for some time.
    I had thought it was set to sync to iCloud but it vanished from BOTH my phone and the cloud. That's why I'm so angry about it.

  • I recently updated my iphone and lost all my media and contacts as my computer did not save them how do i get them back

    i recently updated my iphone and lost all my media as my computer did not have enough memory to restore and an error occured. How do i get them back.

    Media and contacts are NOT part of the iPhone backup. Media should already be in your iTunes library and contacts should be in whatever address book or cloud service you were syncing them to. Just re-sync them to the phone.

  • I recently restored my iPhone and lost all of my pictures...

    I recently restored my iPhone and lost all of my pictures. Is there anyway to get them back? there's no recent backups with the pictures. WOuld it have stored them anywhere?

    What pics?
    Photo album pics should still be on your computer, as that's where they came from in the first place.
    Camera Roll pics (taken with iphone) should be imported to you computer on a regular basis (particularly before a restore) so they should be on your computer as well.
    If you have failed to do this, you should be able to restore from back up, as camera roll photos are part of the automatic itunes backup:

    iTunes 10.7 does indeed work on OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion. Do you mean you have Mac OS X 10.5.8 Leopard? If so, and you updated your iPhone 4S to iOS 6 on some other computer, then you may be out of luck synching to your 10.5.8 system, but you can get and try 10.6.3 here:

  • I erased everything on my iphone and lost all my contacts pictures and everything how do i get all that back from my itunes account??

    I erased everything on my iphone and lost all my contacts pictures and everything else how do i get the contacts and pictures back from my itunes account?? ive tried restore its like it gave me a whole new iphone thing.

    If you plug in the iPhone to your computer, any contacts ect that you synced with your computer with sync back with the iPhone when it is selected in the iTunes menu under info. Anything that was added without syncing was lost, I'm sorry. A good future solution is to get iOS 5 when it comes out this fall, so you don't need to manually sync contacts, its automatic!
    Best Regards

    Check for previous backups in iTunes. Use iPhone Backup Extractor and extract contacts from iTunes backup if they exist.

  • Tried to do upgrade and lost everything but contacts. Phone wont sync with computer. Do I need to register it as a new iphone?

    You should copy everything from your old computer to your new one, then sync.
    The iphone will sync with one computer at a time.  Syncing to another will indeed erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.

  • HT4623 I just updated my Iphone 4s to the new operating system and lost ALL MY CONTACTS on my phone. Everything else is there. HELP!

    Hello 6underwood,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3581
    If you are experiencing difficulties with the connection between your stereo and device, disconnect the device, and then power cycle the stereo and your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad. When the Home screen reappears, reconnect your device. If you cannot power cycle the stereo, turn the car off and then back on to allow the stereo to power off.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • How do I transfer all the content from my old 3rd gen to my new 4th gen iTouch, including apps and notes. I replaced an old 2nd gen with the 3rd last year and lost all my contacts and notes.

    What's the best way to transfer all the content, including notes and apps, from my old 3rd gen to my new 4th gen. When I replaced my last iTouch with the 3rd gen I lost all my contacts and notes.

    Backup the 3g by syncing in iTunes. Then connect the new one and sync everything to it from your backup.

  • Help! I've just upgraded to iOS5 and lost all my contacts, app, music etc.

    For the past few years I've known I need to upgrade to a new mac. My old one was a old mac mini (pre Intel).
    So I just bought a new mac mini and tried connecting my iPhone to it.
    I allowed it to do the upgrade to iOS5 (my old mac wouldn't allow me to upgrade and it can't even upgrade iTunes).
    As soon as it upgraded I realised I've lost everything!
    Not a problem I thought - I can retrieve the backup from the old mac. However, when I plug in the iPhone to the old mac I get a message that this is a newer version of iOS and therefore iTunes needs to be upgraded. But I haven't been able to upgrade iTunes on the old mac for a few years.
    So iTunes won't even acknowledge that there is an iPhone plugged in to it.
    Looking on forums people say just connect to iCloud and all your contacts will be there. I don't have an iCloud account - there was no such thing as iCloud on my old mac.
    This really is awful.

    A quick update : The iPhone wasn't actaully mine - it was my girlfriends. She is now furious at me for losing all her data. I managed to recover some of the contacts by copying them across from the SIM but it appears that the most important thing was an app - a password keeper that held all the information for accessing all of our bank accounts.
    There must be somethng I can do?
