The contacts icon was deleted from my iPhone 5.  How do I get it back?

My granddaughter played with my phone and deleted the Contacts icon. The information is still on the phone under Phone.  How do I add the icon back?

Well, it's impossible to delete Apple's Contact app. Swipe the home screen to the right and type in a search bar for 'CONTACTS' and it should find the app. She may have put it into a folder or it's on page 9/screen. It's there, you may need to do a little searching and that may take time on your part.
(Apple apps can't be deleted.)

  • Suddenly the settings app has disappeared from my iphone. How do I get it back?

    Suddenly the setings app has disappeared from my iphone. How do I get it back? I tried resetting the phone to factory settings but that did not help.

    It's not possible to delete it. Try resetting the home page layout. It has to have been moved to another page or a folder... oh, wait. you can't reset the home page layout without getting to it.
    Go to the search page (press the home button once when on the first screen or swipe right from the home screen and type settings. Provided you have not turned off application search results in spotlight settings, you should be able to get to it from there.

    I lost all the icons at the bottom of individual emails on my iPhone. How do I get them back???

    Open the mail app then press and hold the sleep/wake button until the red slide to power off thing appears. Without sliding the bar, press and hold the home button until the app quits.
    Also clear the mail app from multitasking bar too. Then open mail app and check again

  • My home folder and my Hard disk icon have dissapeared from my mac. How do I get them back?

    Try a restart. If the problem is the same, try deleting the com.apple.finder.plist.
    Either hold down the option key while using the Finder “Go To Folder” command
    and select your user Library in your home folder or use the Finder “Go To Folder” command and enter ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist.  Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Relaunch Finder (command - option - esc) and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the same, return the .plist to where you got them from, overwriting the newer ones.
    If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
    Show User Library
    You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after I installed 10.8.4. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

    My iMessage app has disappeared from my iPhone.  How do I get it back?

    Good Afternoon Redclc,
    The Messages app is part of the iOS operating system on your iPhone, so it can't be deleted.   That's the good news.  So, it may have been moved to a different home screen.  You can use the Spotlight feature to search for the app on your iPhone.  Here's how:

  • HT4865 If a contact is intentionally deleted from an iphone, why/how would it reappear later on back into the contacts?

    If a contact is intentionally deleted from an iphone, how could/would it reappear later on?

    On a Mac, PhoneView is one option (I've been happily using for a year or two). TouchCopy is another (have not heard anything negative about it).
    You'll only get back the low-res versions that were downsized when synced to the phone, but better than nothing.

    You cannot delete the Apple builtin apps.
    1. Use Spotlight to search on iPhone.
    2. Check if Settings > General > Restrictions > iTunes Store: ON (green)
    3. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • I plugged in my iphone to my mom's computer to charge it and all my pictures loaded onto her computer and erased them from my iphone.  How do I get them back on my iphone

    I plugged in my iphone to my mom's computer for charging and all my pictures are now on her computer and off my iphone.
    How can I get them back?

    Yeah, unless she backs up the iphone to the itunes on her original computer before syncing again. Backing up will create a backup of the camera roll, so this shouldn't be a problem.
    Copied from the OP's post.
    I plugged in my iphone to my mom's computer for charging and all my pictures are now on her computer and off my iphone.
    The photos imported by her Mom's computer were deleted from the Camera Roll after the import process was completed. If she updates her iPhone's backup now, it will be updated with a blank Camera Roll on the iPhone.
    The question was how to get the photos back onto the phone. What I said would have worked.
    And what you provided would have transferred these photos back to her iPhone in the Photo Library preventing her from importing the photos with her computer. And if there are any photos on her iPhone that were transferred from her computer or regardless, the photos transferred from her Mom's computer to her iPhone via the iTunes sync process will be deleted from her iPhone's Photo Library as the first step when selecting to transfer any photos from her computer to her iPhone.

  • Deleted contacts from my phone & they auto deleted from other phone. How do I get them back?

    Just updated my iPhone 4 and my GF's iPhone 4 to the new OS, we share the same Apple ID and subsequently linked both phones to the same iCloud account (I will be using separate clouds from this point forward). However, after the update all of her contacts where in my phone so I deleted all of them and due to the cloud they all deleted from her phone.
    So, I have previously backed up (not just synched) her phone to iTunes but I was hoping for clarification on exactly to restore her phone from iTunes and recover all of her contacts. Can you please give me the “dummy” proof steps on how to restore her phone and get her contacts back? Please and thank you in advance.

  • My delete icon has disappeared from voicemail screen.  how do I get it back

    my delete icon has disappeared from the voicemail page. I can not delete any voicemails now.  how can I get the delete icon back?

    First of all do you have a CD/DVD in the drive?   The icon is only shown on the desktop when there is a CD/DVD in the drive.
    If you have a CD/DVD in there, then check that CD/DVDs, and iPods is ticked in Finder/Preferences/General.

  • Somehow iTunes has been deleted from my IPad. How do I get it back? A

    iTunes has disappeared from my iPad, and Farmville is taking money I haven't authorized. I don't have Facebook authorised to take payments which presumably means the money can only be going through iTunes, so I really need to get the app back to cancel all payments. (Unless some kind person out there knows some other way.) 
    I'd be so grateful for any help at all in re-installng iTunes  - the Apple site just sends me in circles and won't offer any way to re-install. To make matters worse, the appstore icon has also disappeared from my iPad too so I can't get at it that way.
    And if anyone also knows how to stop Farmville (whose contact link conveniently - for them - doesn't work) taking my money that wouod be brilliant.
    To sum up:
    iPad 2
    No iTunes link or icon
    Need to re-install?
    Apple site no help
    No money authorised in Facebook, but money taken by Farmville
    Money going via iTunes?
    No way into iTunes to stop it
    No appstore link or icon, so no way in through that
    Aaaaaaargh!
    Help. Please.

    I tried turning those off but they only seem to function to allow/ prevent auto download to the iPad from other linked computers, e.g. When i download a book to my Kindle I can allow/prevent it also loading in the
    Kindle app on the iPad.
    I've changed my Apple identity and password, and removed my bank card info which I hope will stop any further financial  shenanigans, and Farmville seems to have registered it. Did all this deep inside thebsettings app.
    But still can't work out how to get the iTunes store or the apps store back.
    Really appreciate you tryimg to help, and so speedily. I was beginning to think I'd have to cancel my bank card, *not* something I want to do a week before Xmas!
    If this were a pc I'd know what to do; 25 years and counting experience delving into their virtual innards, resetting registry, etc., but this Apple game has whole new rules I haven't hada chance to learn yet, and it doesn't seem as amenable to amatuer tinkering.
    But i do love my new toy, so am very sad that it's broken. Amy further help very greatly appreciated.
    Thanks for suggestions so far.
