I LOST CONTENT WITHIN AN ADDRESS BOOK APP, THE APP WAS REGULARLY BACKED UP, I REMOVED THE APP FROM MY IPHONE AND SYNCED IT BACK IN .THE APP SYNCED OK BUT THE CONTENT IS STILL MISSING

That's because app content is stored in the iPhone backup, not the app. What you should have done, is first restore from backup, then sync your iTunes content...the app in question...back to your phone. That would have restored the app data. However, if you've synced, since restoring the app to your phone, the app data is gone.

  • When I send emails using my iPad, recipients are telling me that I am sending them blank emails.  I've had some of them forward the emails back to me so I can take a look and it seems that my message is actually there but the text is white...

    When I send emails using my iPad, some recipients are telling me that I am sending them blank emails.  I've had some of them forward the emails back to me so I can take a look and it seems that my message is actually there but the text is white.  Interestingly enough, I was a Windows user just a few months ago and I was on the receiving end of this same problem with someone who was sending emails from her iPhone.  I don't believe it is happening every time but if it happens even once it's a problem.  Any idea what's going on? 

    Oddly enough, having reported the problem it appears to have fixed itself. There may be some combination swipe gesture that triggers it is all I can think because I suddenly manged to zoom my display x3 by double tapping three fingers. Took me a while to sort this out but then when I got back home I could suddenly see all my emails again. Bizarre!

  • I have lost the contents of my Address Book on my iMac Intel. The Contacts on both my iPod Touch 4th Gen.

    I have lost the contents of my Address Book on my iMac Intel. The Contacts on both my iPod Touch 4th Gen. & my iPad 1st Gen. are ok but synching them with the iMac doesn't restore the Address Book.

    John,
    The synch with my iPad didn't restore my Address Book, but when I changed the Contacts preference on my iPod Touch & synched it my Address book was restored. Thanks for the help.

  • How can I copy the contents of an address book group

    Does anyone know how I can copy the entire contents of an Address Book group and paste the results into an e-mail to send to others? When I select the group and then the "copy" tool, it copies only the first address in the group. If I select "select all", it selects all e-mail addresses everywhere, not just the ones in the intended group.

    He did not want to add them all to his address book; he simply wanted to have my long list of staff email addresses without having to type it or create it himself, like this: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], etc. We used to use an email application called Eudora which allowed you to copy and paste group lists as though they were just text characters. With Mail (and Address Book), everything is connected to everything else and a group list is actually a set of flagged contacts from your "All Contacts" list.

  • Help! I cannot find and retrieve the contents of my Address Book from Time Machine.

    Last week I backed up my iMac using Time Machine, saving everything onto an external hard drive. I then re-installed the OS X, and have since been steadily retrieving all the important stuff onto my cleaned up iMac. However, I can't find the contents of my Address Book, to the annoyance of my wife. Where is it?
    Regards, Eric

  • Is there a way to migrate or copy contents of my Address Book from an older Mac running OS10.4.11 to a new Mac running 10.10.2?  Migration Assistant in Yosemite says it doesn't support Address Book 10.4.11.

    Cool!! You're welcome - but BDAqua (there's that name again!) deserves the credit (although I knew it too)
    So much for a Mac's claim of 'continuity' and 'ease of use' huh?

  • My address book on my Mac was over written by the contact list from my iPhone, Help? restore??

    Recently picked up an iphone - beginning to think it was a mistake. Just found the address book on my Mac was over written by my iphone contact list.
    How did this happen, why was I not warned? and can I somehow restore my address book? I'm lost any help is greatly appreciated!

    I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out, and I apologize for my lack of understanding. no problem, sometimes it's better not to know in detail what's going on inside your mac
    ok, on one side you have a backup of your computer you made some time ago when you had all your contacts on your phone, right?
    On the other side you have your computer as it is now, the MobileSync folder contains a backup of your phone, but you can't use it because it contains the wrong data.
    So in order to have the backup from some date in the past you'll have to replace (overwrite) the folder on your computer. This can be done by moving the old MobileSync folder to the location I described earlier.
    After you replaced the folder, there will be the "old" backup inside and you can go into itunes/settings/devices and see if the backup can be used to restore your phone.

  • Lost all Contacts in Address Book

    I had over 500 contacts in my Address Book. Recently I had a problem with my iPhone and the Apple Store gave me a new one. I synched it with my computer a couple of times and ended up with duplicates of my contacts. I manually removed the duplicates on my phone. I also have a MobileMe account set to synch my contacts, mail, calendar. A couple of days ago I realized that my Address Book on my Mac was empty. All contacts gone! I tried to restore them from Time Machine but it only brought back 40 contacts. I've spent hours with online support for MobileMe. No help at all. New contacts put on the iPhone and Calendar items do synch back to my iMac. AppleCare for iPhone couldn't help me either. I've been a .mac user for a couple of years and have backups going back that far but no has been able to tell me how to recover my Contacts file. Any ideas?

    Mobile Me has had such bad issues over the past week or two...
    With address book on the Mac, you simply select all the contacts and drag them on to your desktop and this will make one big Address book export file, that'll enable you to save and import it later on...
    however it sounds like you are past that point, have you looked deep in to you ~/library folder for any scraps of data??? sadly, it sounds like it's gone, I had the same thing on launch day of Mobile Me... the MobileMe cloud deleted EVERYTHING, thank goodness I had a backup of the address book from a few months ago...
    Time Machine is one of the most buggy backup softwares I've ever used, and wouldn't recommend it for any serious user yet.
    I'm sorry this is probably not the news you want to hear!!!
    Have you ever made backups manually NOT using time machine???

  • Hi. Downloaded iphone 6.0 and my video playlists in "Music" are now gone, but their names are still there. The videos are still in "Videos" and play from there 1 at a time manually.

    Hi. Downloaded iphone 6.0 and my video playlists in "Music" are now gone, but their names are still there. The videos are still in "Videos" and play from there 1 at a time manually.  It gets weirder:
    When looking at the empty screen with the name of my former playlist on top,  if I tap the edit button on the phone, tap the + button to add a 'song' to the playlist, and then tap 'Done' without adding anything, I can see all my videos in the playlist with the red minus symbol next to each of them. But as soon as I tap 'Done' again they all disappear!
    I saw on another forum that someone has had the same problem but fixed it by, and I quote
    "If you go to Get Info and change the Media Kind from Movie to Music Video under the Options tab, they all now appear in the playlists!"
    I'm happy this worked for him, but when I tap "File" in itunes, the "Get info" field is greyed out, so I can't test the solution proposed.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
