TS4083 Lost notes and contacts.

I recently seem to have lost all my notes which I thought were saved on the iCloud, however nothing is there as far as I can tell. I also just lost my favorites, also saved-I thought. Any suggestions, thank you.

For notes and contacts, you can use a computer's browser to log into icloud.com and check the notes and contacts pages. If empty, then they are gone. Your only hope is if you've been making backups to either itunes or icloud. If so you can perform a restore, which will wipe the device first and then download the backed up data. In the process you will lose whatever data you created since the last backup.

Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. This will erase your phone. Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your phone is new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.

We have three iPhones but one Apple ID because I pay for the acct whenever we buy Apps or music. However, it's frustrating that when we share iCloud it merges our notes and contacts even if we say "DO NOT MERGE." I've also lost my notes but could not recover them even if I did a restore.

You can share the same iTunes ID on all your devices and still have different iCloud accounts with different IDs on them. The ID you use for iTunes does not need to be the same as the ID used for iCloud.
If you want to migrate your devices to separate accounts, on the devices that will be moving save any photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. Also email any synced notes to yourself so you can recreate them in the new account. Finally, if you are syncing any iWork documents with iCloud, go to the iWork app settings and turn off iCloud syncing.
Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Once the phones are all on separate accounts you can then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want from each account.

HT4993 My notes and contacts have disappeared. How to I get them back?

my phone often goes completely black. only this time I've lost my notes and contacts. How do I retrieve this information?

For your camera, go to Settings>General>Restrictions and be sure that Camera is set to On. Don't know why you can't find FB, be sure you checked all your screens and inside all your folders.

Lost pictures and contacts with last update of iPhone 6 to 8.1.2

Lost pictures and contacts with last update of iPhone 6

MMy iPhone was synced with my computer and the cloud. After re syncing, pics and contacts remain in cloud and computer but won't sync to my iPhone. Even my IT guy at work is stumped! I would love to have all my pics and contacts back on my phone. I have not yet updated my iPad d air because I'm afraid the same thing will happen.

TS1702 Disappearing notes and contacts

My current problem is that I have lost 3 notes from my notepad that I use daily to keep records and lists. One of these records was important and it has simply disappeared. Everyone in my home insists they did not delete them. I have iCloud turned off for this app, but it still updates to the two iPads in my home. So I can't recover my list from those. I'm thinking of hooking it up to my iMac and trying to recover them from my last sync, but Im not sure if I should.
I have also lost contact information in the past. The contact either disappears entirely, or a new one gets added in without the information I put in for the original contact. I also have iCloud turned off for contacts.
I have updated my iPhone to ios6 recently.

[quote]did you ask here for some advice on how to back up? we would advise you not to make back-up into your memory card but through PC suite or Ovi Suite.[/quote] No, I didn't. The website clearly stated that I can make a backup to memory card, so that's exactly what I did. I have no Microsoft Windows, nor Mac. I went to a Nokia service point and asked them to upgrade the firmware. [quote]is your memory card from Nokia? if not, that's why the back-up failed.[/quote] I don't remember as it is 2 years ago that I purchased the phone, including the memory card, in the same Nokia shop where I did the 'upgrade'. Never had any problems with the card though, and loaded already tons of documents, recordings and pictures on the card, and yes, there is enough space left for a backup. Also, I am able to load the backup file to my laptop, open it in a hex editor and actually partially see the content of some SMS messages, so the backup itself seems to have succeeded. Also there were no error messages indicating any problem. Also, your answer implies that the notes and contacts *should* have been saved on the card, although they are not retrieved during 'recovery' of the backup, so there is still hope for recovery I think, as I still have the backup file. Actually, the shop had a problem upgrading the software. They reported to me that the upgrade failed at the end of uploading it to the phone, so they put back v6.14.something. Might that be one of the possible reasons the recovery of the backup has failed? Or are pple @ Nokia really so d*mb that they didn't include backing up the contacts and notes, assuming that 'everybody nowadays has microsoft windows', which simply isn't true and an unfair assumption, as backups and recoveries from it should be possible without having to purchase equipment and programs from third parties.

How do I retrieve lost notes and pictures

How do I retrieve lost notes and pictures

Not sure about pictures, but for iphone notes:
After many hours of trying everything to retrieve my lost notes (several just disappeared overnight for no reason) it dawned on me that they were linked to one of my email accounts (In my case yahoo).
I logged into that account directly from the yahoo site (not iphone mail!) and "Voila!" all of my notes, even the disappeared ones, were there!
Took some cut & pasting and I'm back in business.
Hope this helps.

Why have my notes and contacts been deleted and my applications won't launch

I tried using my iPad mini today but both my notes and contacts have been deleted and my applications either won't launch at all or launch for a few minutes and then shutdown. I also tried to download another app which said had been downloaded but I couldn't find it anywhere, the same thing happened with another app I downloaded. It was working fine yesterday and I haven't updated it or done anything out of the ordinary since then. What's wrong?

There are some simple troubleshooting steps you can take.
Be sure you drive is not overly full. Rule of thumb would be over 85%.
Create a new User go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" (make it an admin acct) and test the apps in this new account, if they work the problem is isolated to your User and not systemwide.
If the issue is limited to your user account try starting up Safe Mode (It will take more time to startup in Safe Mode because it runs a directory check.)
If your apps functions correctly that way, go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. Boot normally and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving ~(yourHome)/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.
If the issue is systemwide then, you may be able to repair this with the The 10.6.2 Combo Update This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before.
Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.

Problem-Solution: Help! I'm seeing my iCloud account two or more times in Notes and Contacts!

Problem: Help! I’m seeing my iCloud account two or more times in Notes and Contacts!
Solution:
Open [System Preferences] >
Open [iCloud] >
Uncheck [Contacts] for each duplicate iCloud you see in Contacts. ex. My iCloud Account is listed three times = uncheck Contacts twice. The checkbox next to Contacts will fill back in again automatically.
Uncheck [Notes] for each duplicate iCloud account you see in Notes. (same instructions for Contacts; repeat the steps for each duplicate account)
Why is this happening?
It has to do with iCloud Keychain. If you set up iCloud keychain on more than one Mac, it appears to duplicate the iCloud account in each respective application once per Mac. (ex. 2 Macs = 1 Duplicate). The good news is that the above fix appears to be permanent and does not reoccur.

Minor addition:
I’m setting up a new Mac—how can I avoid this?
Turn on iCloud in System Preferences (SP)
When asked if you wish to set up Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Find my Mac, et al., uncheck all boxes, and click Next.
Check the “Keychain” box first, then check all other boxes except Contacts and Notes.
Within a few minutes, these boxes will check themselves.

you can't merge backups. it's all or nothing. one or the other.

Can I share my iTouch Calendar, Notes and Contacts with my iPad2?

Can I share my iTouch Calendar, Notes and Contacts with my iPad2?

Yes, you can sync Notes and Calendar (but not Contacts) via a Yahoo email account. I believe Gmail also supports this. The only wireless Contacts sync I've heard of will be in the upcoming iCloud service.
