Stolen iphone contacts no longer showing up in icloud

Hello everyone,
Im writing on behalf of my mother-in-law, whos iPhone 4 was stolen today. She went and purchased a 5 right away, and her contacts were showing up from the cloud. However, just a few hours later, they are not there on her phone. Earlier today when she told me about it, I logged in to her account on icloud.com to verify that everything was backed up and she would be good to go when she signed in on the new device, and all of her contacts were showing up there. Now they are not. What has happened, and what can I do? Im afraid that the theif might have gone in and erased them on purpose. I changed her email password right away, but did not even think to change her icloud password. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks everyone!

The person with the iPhone most likely did what you think, deleted all of the contact, and perhaps other inf, and the iPhone dutifully synced that to iCloud.  That removed the info.  You need to be ure and change all passwords that may be on that iPhone.  Report it to the police, cell carrier and insurance.

  • After changing contact photo on iPhone, photo no longer shows up in outlook

    I had my contact photos all setup on my iphone, and syncing correctly with iTunes and showing up correctly in Outlook 2007. The photos are stored on the iPhone, and set either by selecting the photo and doing "Assign to Contact", or in Contacts, Edit, Edit (the picture) and "Choose Photo". They would show up as a thumbnail in the Outlook 2007 Business Card view, and also in the detail when you double-click a contact. This part of the process hasn't changed.
    What has changed is iOS4. Now, when I go in and change a contact's photo on the iPhone, it no longer shows up correctly in Outlook 2007. It shows a blank space when showing the Business card view, but shows the photo correctly in the detail if I double-click a contact. Even if I change it back to the photo that it was, it still won't show correctly in Outlook 2007 Business Card view.
    Contacts whose photos I haven't changed since iOS4 show correctly in both places in Outlook 2007.
    Anyone else seeing this or have a fix?

    Hi!
    I'm having the same troubles and after searching for a while i found
    the following solution:
    In short (from http://gyoo.com/blog/?p=48)
    First, some figures:
    iPhone camera resolution: 1600×1200 (72dpi)
    iPhone screen resolution: 320×480 (160dpi)
    iPhone contact picture display size: 64×64 (160dpi)
    iPhone contact picture display size on call: 320×270 (160dpi)
    Outlook import resolution: 72×96 (72dpi)
    - On your PC, resize the image contact to 320×320 (160dpi),
    knowing that 25 pixels on the top and bottom will be semi-transparent when on call.
    - On your PC, create a folder iPhone Photos\Contacts and move your contact photos inside Sync the photos into your iPhone with iTunes through the Photos tab.
    - Select the iPhone Photos folder as source.
    - Manually associated the photo to your contact on the iPhone
    (Edit ->Add Photo->Choose Existing Photo)
    - Sync back the iPhone with iTunes.
    The photos will be associated automatically into Outlook with the good resolution this time.
    Regards

  • Since update to 5.0.1 iphone contacts caller id shows email address rather than contact name and number

    Since i upgraded to 5.0.1 . My iphone contacts caller id shows email address not contact name and number. Is this a settings issue?

    Hi, it's maybe happening the same here!
    I have an iphone 3gs. Since I did the upgrade to ios5, when I receive an sms with the notification of a missed call I am no longer able to see if it's coming from a number of my contact list, because in the sms the message correspondence for that contact underlines now the number PLUS the first 2 cifres of the date! So the number results always being 2 numbers longer and it's impossible get to the original.
    That's really a major problem for me, as I'm no longer able to know who has called me, if someone I know (and who) or if a new number.
    I add a capture to explain it better (I have banned a couple of cifres for privacy reasons).
    Anyone solved the problem or can help please?
    Thank you!

  • Adding iPhone contact and  it shows up as Android user on texts- how to fix this

    I have a new iPhone 6 and just added a new contact - who has an iPhone too -   after adding it - I tried to  send a text to them and it showed up as a Text not an iMessage ---  I looked to make sure that I put his phone number in as an iPhone and just mobile. It is in as an iPhone --
    This means I cannot text from my MacBook Pro or iPad  -  and yet he has an iPhone ---    are there certain carriers that don't play well with Apple or is this something I am doing wrong .
    Please help  -  this is the second contact that is showing up this way...
    I also have a tenant that I text to and they changed carriers but have the same phone.   I think they are now with T-Mobile.   And when I open the text messages to and from them   Some where sent in Blue as iMessages and the newer ones are all in green and sent as SMS text messages -- I not longer can send the  text from my Mac Book Pro.  
    Please please help me.    I am using current operating systems on all devices and all devices are new this year.
    What is going on?

    Hey Dgnstl,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with iMessage. To troubleshoot these issues, see the following resource for helpful steps:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving iMessages, follow these steps
    1. Check iMessage system status for current service issues.
    2. Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure that you registered iMessage with your phone number or Apple ID and that you selected iMessage for use. If the phone number or Apple ID isn't available for use, troubleshoot iMessage registration.
    3. Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. If a data connection isn't available, troubleshoot cellular data or a Wi-Fi connection.
    4. iMessage over cellular data might not be available while you're on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn which network your phone supports. If your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while you're on a call.
    5. Restart your device.
    6. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    If you still can't send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
    1. Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    2. Make sure that the contact you're trying to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
    3. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    4. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact in the Contacts app. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    5. Back up and restore your device as new.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Iphone 3G no longer shows charging or recognized by PC

    Iphone 3G 3.1.2 no longer shows to be charging when connected to my PC or to a wall outlet. The computer does not recognize it at all, tried putting it into DFU and still, no recognition. What I've discovered is, that it does actually charge when plugged in, just doesnt show to be. Like, I get no lightning bolt when plugged in. I let the phone stay on until it died, ofcourse once I powered it on, I got the black screen with the red battery, so when I plugged it in to the PC, I got the lightning bolt and the phone turned on. Still doesnt show to be charging once inside the Iphone's OS. I thought it might have been a faulty dock connector, so i bought another and replaced it, nothing changed. I have 2 other iphones and they work perfectly fine with the same cable and same computer. I thought maybe a restore would do something, but I cant even get the PC to recognize it, so thats out of the question. Does anybody know what it might be? The only thing I can see is a faulty mainboard...

    I have the same problem. Mine was water damaged though. The indicators inside the Iphone are red but not the charger port or earphone jack ones. I don't get anything when I plug it in. I swapped the charging port also and nothing.

  • How Come My iPhone 3G No Longer Shows Up in iTunes?

    All of a sudden my iPhone doesn't show up in the iTunes sidebar on my 20" iMac, but using the same cable it does on my MacBook. I have tried plugging it in diretly to the iMac as well as to my Belkin hub, but it no longer shows up in iTunes, nor does it charge when plugged it. The iPhone stays dark when first pluged in.
    Does anyone know why when plugging in the iPhone 3G or my iPod Classic (old school) it won't load on the side bar of iTunes? It is like it does not exist. I have done all updates. I restarted my computer a couple of times and finally got the iPod Classic to load but still the iPhone 3G shows nothing. It won';t even boot my phone up to charge it but will the iPod.
    I use the iPhone on my MackBook with the same cord and it loads to iTunes and starts to sync. Same with the iPod. Both computers are running the same software. Since it works on the MacBook and use to work on then iMac G5 I am thinking it may have something to do with the updates for iTunes. I use the MacBook to charge the iPhone and iPod sometimes but the main computer for syncing is the iMac. Only nothing seems to work. After restarting the iMac several times the iPod seems to work then not work. I am frustrated. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    hi John, i have my doubt that it has something to do with authorization/deauthorization. I have read somewhere before that the iPhone (not sure about iPod) can only be "paired" with one mac and if you want to synch it with another one, you need to deauthorize the initial one first. Inside iTune up on its menu bar under Store, there are 2 options that said authorize and deauthorize. Now i haven't tried this before as i only got myself one mac, so i have no past experience here with this particular case. May be some other experienced users can shed some light on this and share with us, before you try out?

    I just up dated my iPhone 5, 4S, and iPad 2 to iOS 7, now my 3GS (ipod use only) no longer shows in the Find my iPhone device listing.  Any ideas why this may be?

  • Songs deleted on iphone - no longer show up on icloud?

    I have signed up for itunes match and am in the middle of downloading my songs back to my iphone.  While it was plugged in to my Macbook, I went under my iphone in itunes and deleted a couple of songs (wasn't really thinking at the time, and that's how I was used to doing it).  Now, those songs no longer show up as available downloads on the iphone but they are on the itunes on my computer and have been sent up to the cloud.  I have re-synced my phone, I have updated the itunes match and those songs are still not available to download am I stuck?

  • My Iphone 4s no longer shows the symbol Airplay after the download of IOS7

    Dear sir:
    My Iphone 4S was working properly with the operating system IOS 6.1.4. Then I have loaded the IOS 7 and so far it no longer shows the AirPlay Symbol.
    I have loaded at my Iphone 4S the software 1.3.2. with no help. My Airport Express box has a software version 7.6.4.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Luiz

    iOS 7 moved the AirPlay icon to Control Center.
    To show Control Center, make sure your Home screen is displayed (press the Home button once), then swipe up from the bottom.

  • How Come My iPhone 3G No Longer Shows Up Nor Charges in iTunes??

    All of a sudden my iPhone 3G doesn't show up in the iTunes sidebar on my 20" iMac, but using the same cable, it does on my MacBook's iTunes. I have tried plugging it in directly to the iMac as well as to my Belkin hub, but it no longer shows up in iTunes, nor does it charge when plugged it. The iPhone stays dark when first plugged into the iMac now. I have restarted the iMac a few times, I have powered the iPhone on and off, and I have reset the iPhone more than once....... all with no change. However, the iPod now does show in the sidebar and on the Desktop, and it charges now after the iMac restarts were done. All the software is updated on both computers and on the iPhone 3G. Does anyone have any other suggestions to try. The iPhone 3G works in every other way as usual.
    Thanks for your help!

  • IPhone contact photos not showing up!

    I have set different photos as icons for a lot of my contacts. When they call, the picture only shows up as a very small icon in the upper left hand side of the screen. On my wife's iPhone 4S, her photos come across as full screen.
    No I'm not using Facebook pics and yes I emailed these photos to myself and downloaded them from email to "assign to contact".
    thanks

    Please re-post if you have figured this out! I am having the same issue, though with mine the only contact photos that show up are for people with iPhones(?).  I cannot find a solution.
