Retrieving contacts and phone numbers
The screen on my phone is broken so I can't access any of the information on my phone. I need the phone numbers for work and its very important that I can get them back. The lady at the phone store wasn't able to retrieve the numbers, but told me to get on here and it would work if I hook a cord up to the phone. I never updated my account or had an email account associated with my phone and updates on this site. How can I get the numbers back?
Hello E_J,
Welcome to the community,
If you had earlier copied the contacts to Sim card then can get as much contact you had saved from Sim card,
You are saying that you can't access it cause of broken screen but if you can Turn On the device then I think you will
be able to get your contacts by mean of Blackberry desktop software but of course you need a usb cord.
You can download the latest desktop software for windows from here how to download latest desktop software for windows
And for mac computer hereInstalling the latest desktop software for Mac computer
So with the help of desktop software you can get your contacts back.
Good Luck.

How do I get my contacts and phone numbers back after I finished the upgrade?

Hopefully you backed up that info on your Mac or PC. Do a restore and they should all come back. If you have an iCloud account you can recover them from there as well. -

You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

If I delet contact/phone numbers from my iPhone and then go to back up my iPhone in iTunes, will it put them back in my phone> if so, how do I get rid of those contacs.number out of the stored info on the computer?
Krisit depends on whether or not the contacts are in a contacts program on your computer and where they are on your phone. if they're on your phone in icloud, then no. if they're on your phone from an email account, then no. if they're on your phone in a group called 'from my pc' or 'outlook' or something like that, then yes, by default, they'll most likely come back to your phone from your computer

I am very disappointed with my Z10. I wonder if this was tested on business people or youngsters who want to game. One of the most important functions on my old Blackberry was I could see who was calling me and it was EASY to put new telephone numbers into my contacts and also recall the name and number on my telephone log. Now I see why BB is losing loyal BB users. I would fire a bunch of people who overlooked this IMPORTANT function. FIX IT BB.
Overlooked what? I think you might be jumping the gun on something.
CalledID of the name of the person calling you. Check, works.
Add a new number from a number which called you, to your Address Book. Check, works..
Pull up the Call Log and redial a number from previous incoming and outgoing calls. Check, works.
What exactly is it that you need, that isn't working?

Two days ago my phone locked up and when I could access again, my contact list was only a few names and email addresses. ALL phone numbers wiped from the phone. I have been using google sync for three years to sync contact and calendar to gmail and then sync gmail to iphone, and it has been seemless. I would think this was the problem, however the contacts and phone numbers that were added directly the phone are no longer on the phone either....which point to a phone problem.
I went home, to update but ended up having to "restore" from backup, which I did. The contacts were visible for less than 24 hours, but then disappeared again the next day. I have tried forums for google sync as that would solve a large amount of the contacts, but I still can't seem to find a solution for the other contacts added directly to the phone.
are there any new glitches/issues with the iOS 6 that cause this problem?
phone is 3GS.
thanks.Do the numbers still exist in your google contacts?
Google recently terminated support for new configurations of gmail using Exchange Active Sync for unpaid accounts. In theory, existing configurations will continue to work, but there have been some problem reports.
I've seen several mentions of the problem you describe in the last few days and so far, they've gone unresolved as far as I can tell. The root cause may be in google's termination of AES support.
Facebook contact sync may also be a suspect. -
Is there any way to restore the addresses and phone numbers to the contacts on the iphone and computer that were erased after it synced?
Then chances are you won't be able to get them back. You can try restoring from your last iPhone backup to see if they're still there. To do this, prior to connecting your phone, open iTunes on your computer and go to Preferences; on the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically". Then connect your phone to your computer and when it appears in iTunes on the left sidebar right-click on its name and choose Restore from Backup. Of course, if your backup has already been overwritten with a new backup that doesn't contain the missing contact information then this will not restore it to your phone.) When done you can go back to iTunes Preferences and re-enable automatic syncing if you prefer this.

HT4906 When I synched my phone to the iCloud, I lost my contact list and phone numbers.
When I synched my 3G phone to upgrade the operating system and to join i cloud, I lost my contact list and phone numbers
How can I get the list and phone numbers back???
allen8844If they aren't in your contacts on icloud.com when you check from your computer, you would have to restore them from a backup source.

I have four devices on one Apple ID, i have seperate emails and phone numbers for each device but when I tried to add one to my iPod, it said that the email was already in use. I have tried many things and the only guess I have is that either someone else has this email as their iMessage but is fake or it wasn't taken off my old iPod when I reset it. Any ideas on what to do?
Thanks but that doesn't give me the information I need. I am putting an email on my ipod for people to contact me for iMessage and FaceTime but when I put the email in, it gives me an error saying that the email cannot be veirified because it is already in use. My Apple ID can be varified, just not the email that they will contact me with.

How can I print all my contacts including phone numbers from iCloud
I used to be able to print all of my contacts including phone numbers etc from iCloud. Since all the upgrades I can not do this. I used to be able to change the display by clicking on a ribbon at the top then clicking the gear to have it print. No ribbon any more and no way to change the display. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Thanks again Ferd. I looked up equivalent of command key on Dell keybrd. It is Windows insignia, however that didn't work. I selected all with the pop up menu by right clicking, which accomplished the same thing, however when I tried to print, it would only print out a couple of names per page and no add'l info. I stopped the printer and tried manually highlighting and selecting all with the same printing result. I finally gave in and called Apple support. After explaining my problem, while I was on hold, I thought I would try the process using Google browser instead of I.E. Guess what, IT WORKED!! All that hassle because of Internet Explorer. I now can print (or print to .pdf file to save) any time. I do appreciate your input that would have worked with the interpretation of the command key had I not used IE. live and learn. :-)

HT1296 How can I stop and delete facebook names and phone numbers from my iphone
How can I stop facebook names and phone numbers from being downloaded to my iphone and how can I delete the ones that are already there?
A better way might be
Settings > Facebook > Contacts > turn off.
There are other Facebook settings you might want to leave on. But I also prefer to turn off Calendar there as well to keep every Facebook friends birthday from clogging up my calendar app. -
My iPhone 5S drowned in a rainstorm. How can I retrieve contacts and text messages from iCloud backup onto my iPad mini? There are some contacts on the iPad already but nowhere near all of them. I need to re-enter the contacts manually into an iPhone 4 as it does not support iOS 8.
Let me get this straight.....You lost your phone. You never backed it up, either to your computer or to a cloud service.
How in the world would you expect to get data back? -
Are phone contacts with phone numbers automatically backed up
Are phone contacts including phone numbers automatically backed up in icloud?
Yes, but restoring them from a backup can be difficult and isn't officially supported by Apple. To make sure you have them backed up, use an app like My Contacts Backup on your phone to back them up as a vCard attachment to an email. Send the email to yourself an save the attachment. If you ever need to restore them you can email the attachment back to your phone and tap the attachment to restore them to your phone.

Advice on indexing names and phone numbers
Hi!
I currently have a database with 2,6 million records containing names, addresses and phone numbers. I would like to do fast search like: Give me all persons called "Hansen" living on "Elm street". More complex queries like "%sen" living on "%street%" with a phone number like "3888____".
I'm running on a huge Windows 2000 server with Oracle 8.1.7
I currently have indexed the fields with interMedia and substring indexing. Below is my setup.
BEGIN
ctx_ddl.create_preference('tdk_store', 'BASIC_STORAGE');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('tdk_store','I_TABLE_CLAUSE',
'TABLESPACE tdk_imt STORAGE (INITIAL 4M NEXT 512K PCTINCREASE 0)');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('tdk_store','K_TABLE_CLAUSE',
'TABLESPACE tdk_imt STORAGE (INITIAL 4M NEXT 512K PCTINCREASE 0)');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('tdk_store','R_TABLE_CLAUSE',
'TABLESPACE tdk_imt STORAGE (INITIAL 4M NEXT 512K PCTINCREASE 0)');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('tdk_store','N_TABLE_CLAUSE',
'TABLESPACE tdk_imt STORAGE (INITIAL 4M NEXT 512K PCTINCREASE 0)');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('tdk_store','I_INDEX_CLAUSE',
'TABLESPACE tdk_imt STORAGE (INITIAL 4M NEXT 512K PCTINCREASE 0)');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('tdk_store','P_TABLE_CLAUSE',
'TABLESPACE tdk_imt STORAGE (INITIAL 4M NEXT 512K PCTINCREASE 0)');
ctx_ddl.Create_Preference ( 'tdk_wordlist', 'basic_wordlist' );
ctx_ddl.Set_Attribute ( 'tdk_wordlist', 'substring_index', 'true');
end;
CREATE INDEX tdknavn ON tdk ( navn )
INDEXTYPE IS ctxsys.context
parameters ('WORDLIST tdk_wordlist STORAGE tdk_store');
CREATE INDEX tdkadresse ON tdk ( adresse )
INDEXTYPE IS ctxsys.context
parameters ('WORDLIST tdk_wordlist STORAGE tdk_store');
CREATE INDEX tdktelefon ON tdk ( telefon )
INDEXTYPE IS ctxsys.context
parameters ('WORDLIST tdk_wordlist STORAGE tdk_store');
Query like this gives horrible execution times:
SELECT count(*)
FROM tdk
WHERE contains(navn, 'bedsted') > 0
AND contains(adresse, 'gade') > 0
A query like this caused a dump:
SELECT count(*)
FROM tdk
WHERE contains(adresse, '%gade%') > 0
Is this a stupid approach??Yes it caused a core dump! End-of-file on communication channel.
I just learned about the catsearch function. I read in this forum that is doesn't support wildcards until 9i. So I have to use contains for now.
But... is catsearch faster than contains when you combine to catsearch' in one where clause?
Another question: Is catsearch only faster than contains when you combine it with structured data??
