What do you do if contacts are automatically deleted from the iphone

all my contacts have been automatically deleted from my iphone. what can i do to get them back?

Lol no , don't own anything to sync with . Use my iPhone as a phone mostly , don't know why cos its not even good at that!! Have maybe downloaded 6 or 7 apps since I got it , I delete all mail from unknown in case of virus so don't think that's the problem. Opened iCloud account an hour ago because someone said they could be in there !! Haha think that's maybe not how it works .i have a yahoo email but never put any phone numbers there. I still have phone numbers from twenty years ago after having many phones ,have only lost the ones from the So called " Smart phone" !! Not too feckin smart if you ask me !! Think I will try the rock idea !! Thanks anyway Rojmer

    What happens if your icloud contacts are accidently deleted?  How can I retrieve that data?

    Everything that was on your classic should also have been in your library, and that backed up to another drive. If you manually managed the device, and it was the only location holding your playlists, and it has become corrupted, there really isn't much hope. See Corrupt iPod classic. There may be a chance to recover media stored on it if is isn't stored elsewhere.

    No.  The data that you downloaded from your iPhone will remain on your MBP.

  • 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.

  • HT4623 How do I delete from the apps store an updated app that was downloaded? Prior to iso7.2.0 once the app was downloaded it was automatically deleted from the updated section in the App Store.

    How do I delete from the apps store an updated app that was downloaded and shows open? Prior to iso7.2.0 once the app was downloaded it was automatically deleted from the App Store.

    You don't.
    The update section will continue to show recently updated apps due to the ability to auto download updates.
    It effects nothing, just ignore them.

  • Itunes could not sync contacts to the iphone because the contacts are in use by the iphone

    itunes could not sync contacts to the iphone because the contacts are in use by the i phone....  hi i always get this messega when i plug my phone in to the iphone is there anyone have any idea how to fix my phone thank u

    Am I'm the only one with this issue?
    As I investigate the crash logs it appears that the contacts db is corrupted and that is what is killing the phone, contacts, and mail etc settings.
    I have my contacts backed up several places so I'm not worried about losing them.
    Anyone know how to wipe or recreate the contacts db on the phone via an attached PC?

  • Emails are not delete from the handheld/server

    Hello,
    Our client has Blackberry 8330.
    Emails are not deleted nor from the server nor from the phone. Maybe there any other setting set? Or are these settings set wrong?
    Thanks you
    He has these settings:
    under Messages - Options - General Options, there's this field for "Keep message for" --> 2 months
    The Options >Email reconciliation
    Delete On: Mailbox & Handheld
    Wireless Reconcile: ON
    On Conflicsts: Mailbox Wins

    Endriuska wrote:
    It looks like it only synchrozines mailbox to handheld(if deleted from mailbox, will delete from handheld), but will it delete from mailbox if the email is deleted from handheld?
    As discussed in the KB I linked for you, it depends. If, in the top grid, there is a YES in the Wireless Deletion column for the subject email service AND you have further configured, as per the KB you found, for deleted item reconciliation, then yes it should delete from the server when you delete from the HH.
    Note that there may be a time lag, however -- deleted item reconciliation tends to be one of the lowest priority activities inside of both BIS as well as the email providers systems...I've seen it take up to 24 hours (not normally, but that's the extreme that I've witnessed).
    Further, I believe that the on-HH setting for "Keep Messages" should have no effect on the server...deleted item reconciliation is a function of the end user actually deleting from the HH...not the auto-removal by virtue of this setting.
    Hope that helps!

  • How do i view whats my my icloud if its now been deleted from my iphone?

    How do i view the photos on my icloud now that its been deleted of my iphone and ipad please? thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately, photos that are deleted from the phone are also deleted from your 'my photo stream' album and from the iCloud photo library, unless you saved them to a shared stream, you will no longer be able to recover them, shared streams can be viewed from the shared section of the photo app on your phone.

  • Deleted tracks on Iphone are not deleted from the itunes playlist

    I was just playing around with my YahooMail account too ...and it's a little different than the normal client/server sorta thing I've been used to ...
    I was using my PC to draft a new Yahoo email, then saw it on my iPhone Email, in the Drafts ... edit the PC version, update iPhone, the edit appears.
    The iphone doesn't download a copy of your messages, it interfaces directly with the server. If you do anything on either side (PC and/or iPhone) it affects your Yahoo Inbox.

  • My contacts are not syncing from my iPhone to Outlook on my pc

    For some reasson my contacts that I enter on my iPhone stopped syncing to Outlook on my PC at home.  Can anyone help me with solving this?
    Thank you.

    Just to confirm, if you go to https://www.icloud.com/ and sign in with your appleID and password, do you see all of your iphone contacts in the icloud?  Also, on your iphone settings, under iCloud you have iCloud setup to synch your 'contacts' set to 'on'?  Make sure you are running the latest apple iOS too under General/Software Update (5.0.1).  If you use iTunes to synch info with your phone, I would disable 'synch contacts with outlook' as it's not required any longer. When your phone is plugged into the PC, you will notice that setting by clicking on your phone under 'devices' on left and then going to the 'info' tab at the top, first setting.
    I have Outlook 2007, in the left sidepane, you should see a "contacts" button, select it. Up at the top on the left side you should see "My Contacts" where your old outlook contacts are stored (the default contacts) and now below that you should see "contacts in iCloud" where your iphone contacts were synched to Outlook.  Additionally, from the menu you can select Tools/Address Book..  There you should see all your contacts in the various address books. There is a drop down where you can select a particular address book, such as "iCloud" or the default "Contacts". These are two seperate address books, only one is synched to your phone/icloud.
    Hope this helps.. frustrating these issues can become.

  • What do you do if one of your speakers for the iphone 4s is not working?  how yould you fix it?

    what do you if one of your speakers is not working on an ipone 4s.  how would you fix it?

    If you are referring to the speaker at the bottom, there is only one, the other is a microphone. Otherwise, have you attempted a reset?
    Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
    No content is affected by this procedure.

  • Songs that are imported manually from cds or flash drives are randomly deleting from my iphone 5. Sometimes I get an error -54 message first. Sometimes not. What could be causing this and how can I fix it?

    I have an iPhone 5 16g ios 8.2 and it keeps randomly deleting the songs I manually put on from cds or flash drives. The songs I purchased from iTunes don't delete just the ones I manually add. It has happened three times, once after I added 399 songs, once after I added 27 songs and once when I added 45 songs. Sometimes an error (-54) pops up but not always, it's just in an instant all the songs I put on are suddenly gone. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes three times, reset all the settings on my phone and also restored my phone to factory settings. Nothing has worked. I have a 4th generation iPod and I have never had this problem. Any and all suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions..
    My first suggestion is to Repair Disk. Here's how:
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior
    Please post back and let me know how that goes.
    Here are a few links that may help you to identify the issues:
