What will happen to my iPhone contacts if I choose to "Delete from my iPhone" the previously synced contacts from the iCloud?

When I updated my iPhone 3GS to i06, my contacts were messed up.  Some of my contacts were lost, and one of my contacts which I had two numbers for, a new one and an old number, now only has one number and it is the old one.  So, will I get my original contacts back if I choose the "Delete from my iPhone" choice?

Regarding the first question:
- The contacts on my iPhone right now, due to the connection with iCloud, are numbers that came from the iCloud account (which, unfortunately is my husband's account - I didn't realize it).  Although we have some of the same people on our contacts, his, of course, contains his business contacts as well.  Before the connection, my contacts were my social contacts and my business contacts.  It looks like that not all my contacts from before the iCloud connection are there as some are missing and all of them have missing punctuation marks.  All my photos that were on the contacts of the people are missing as well. 
-  I will have to check and see if my contacts are on the iCloud account also.  Haven't checked that yet. 
By the way, this all happened when I loaded the i06 update.  That's when it asked me if I wanted to store it on iCloud. And when I clicked on it, everything changed on my contacts.

  • What will happen to my Aperture 2 if I choose Apps Aperture 3?

    I could find Aperture 3 available on the Apps store for affordable price to me. I have Aperture 2 already installed on my MBA.
    Can I just buy from Apps store this Aperture 3 and if so
    1.Will my Aperture 2 get upgraded ?
    or
    2.A new full version of Aperture 3 be installed?
    Regards

    The App store is as new to all of us as it is to you. Your question would best be directed to Apple. I believe there is an App store support link in the App store.

  • What will happen if i mention like load-on-startup -1 /load-on-startup   ?

    Hi All,
    In my web.xml what will happen if i mention like <load-on-startup>
    -1</load-on-startup> ?

    It's not WebLogic-specific, the load-on-startup web.xml element is a standard common component to all application servers.
    As for what it does, then yes, the BEA link explains it well enough. So that explanation applies to WAS too.

  • What will happen if i install this printer software update

    RE: HP software update 2.11
    i have an hp printer (of wich i am getting a replacement when i can)
    i used to have a pc and the software was a nightmare it always wanted to update
    and i dont trust or like hp software
    will this update install an hp software program
    i like the mac printer software i use it to scan and print just fine without the hp software
    maybe a wierd question .. i might be a little scard from to much windows exposer haha

    I don't blame you for your concern, but what will happen is probably nothing. No apps are installed, just new or updated drivers.
    If you click the link associated with that update you will see a comprehensive list of all the updated HP drivers. The update probably delivers drivers for newer HP printers, leaving the older ones unaffected. If your existing printer is working you can just ignore the update.
    I'm still using a LaserJet that I bought in 1993; the update didn't change anything.
    If you are in the market for a new printer I recommend researching other manufacturers.

  • What will happen when I put my jailbroken iPhone 4 in the computer?

    I have a jailbroken iphone 4 still running on 4.3.2 firmware and I would like to get rid of the jailbreak and update it to 5. I understand that it will take my jailbreak off, which I have no problem with, but I'm terrified to plug into the computer. The computer I used for my iphone and itunes got a virus and everything was wiped out. I recently got a new macbook, but none of my info for itunes is on there and I'm scared if I put my iphone into the macbook I'll lose all of contacts! That's what I'm worried about. I don't care about the music or the apps and not so much the pictures. I'm just scared to lose my contacts. So does anyone know what will happen since it's jailbroken and I'm on a completely different computer?

    When you jailbreak you void your warranty and give up any right to help on these forums.
    Google your problem.
    Good luck.

  • What will happen if i reset my phone..will i lose my contacts?

    what will happen if i reset my iphone ..will i lose my contacts??

    No. You will not lose your contacts just by resetting.
    If at some point you need to restore your iPhone, you can re sync your contacts using iTunes.

    Good idea to create a backup if you haven't done so. Instructions at that link.

    I never used icloud before so there is no data to back up from. I just spoke  to the apple store and they said that if I do plug it in, all the data will be swiped....is there a program I can use to transfer my data from my phone to computer without loosing it all ???

    Highly unlikely that it says any such thing.
    Try telling us exactly what version of iTunes is installed and what if any messages appears when trying to update it.
    What Operating System is the computer running?

  • What will happen if I restore my iPhone if it hasnt let me back it up?

    I tried to back-up my iPhone 3gs but a message came up saying it needed to be updated first. I updated it and now there is a message on the phone screen saying that i need to connect to itunes, however when i try this, its telling me I need to restore my iPhone first. What will happen if I restore it with no way of knowing whether its backed up or not.
    Thank you
    Panicking!!!!!

    Download iTunes into your computer/laptop.  Upon iTunes completion, connect your iPhone 3Gs to your computer via USB port.  Wait for a minute or 2.  iTunes would automatically backup your iPhone without you doing anything. Make sure you're connected to WIFI.
    Good luck

  • What will happen after I deactivate my iphone?

    Hello, fellow people of the internet!! I'd really like to know, what will happen if I have AT&amp;T deactivate the sim card on my iphone and reactivate the one from my old samsung phone? If someone has gone through a similar experience, would it be possible for you to talk me through the process, or just let me know if there's anything special or worrying that I should know? Can you keep the iphone and continue using it (without any of its actual cellular features, I know), do they charge you for anything , either right there at AT&amp;T or later on in the form of a bill? Is it a quick process or would it be rather complicated? If you couldn't already tell, I'm clueless but I just don't want there to be any surprises if I go through with this 'cause I'd really like to go back to my old phone (is that shocking to anyone? :O) but still keep the iphone around and give it some use without much complications. Anyways, thanks in advance for your time and answers, I really appreciate it!!! :D

    Backup your phone before restoring and then you can't possibly lose any data.
    You should also be syncing your phone with iTunes, iCloud or some other service, so that data should be safe and re-appear on the phone when you set it up again with the same sync service.

    okay, but just to be safe, how can we be sure that our phone is fatory unlocked? because my cousin apparently had a factory unlocked iphone 3g and updated it iOS 6.1.3 and it got locked
    Your cousins phone was therefore not, in fact, factory unlocked.  An iPhone sold directly by Apple as unlocked will never lock because of an iOS update.
    An iPhone unlocked by going through proper procedures and channels with the carrier to whom it was originally locked will never lock again because of an iOS update.
    An iPhone hacked to unlock it (which is unlocked by ANY other means then the first two) will lock again whenever iOS is updated.
    If I had to guess, I would say 90% of privately sold iPhones sold as "unlocked" are in fact merely hacked to unlock them, and WILL relock when updated.
    Some iPhones sold in Europe are also sold as "SIM free" and contract free, but do in fact lock to the carrier of the first SIM inserted in them.  No contract, or "SIM free" does not mean unlocked.

    They will stop syncing with no workaround unless you sync by plugging the phone into your computer using a USB cable.

    So what I have gleemed from this thread - is that Apple will not help me if an iPad mini is dropped and the screen breaks.  I would have lived without the insurance if I could have simply bought a new screen and then had it replaced by Apple.
    On something so fragile I would have expected a piece of glass to be a replacement part. But I am glad I made this post because now I no for sure if I break the screen there is no way to have it fixed by Apple and keep it in Warranty.
    Yup, kind of like anything else you accidentally break that is more cost effective to replace than to repair. Keep that iPad away from the toddler
