Why do my contacts keep disappearing on my iPhone 4s?

I updated my iPhone to iOS 5.0.1. I lost all my contacts when I went to open the app. They were there, but then they disappeared. Put some back in, and lost those! Is there any way this could be related to a virus on Facebook?

Could sombody be deleting them on anoterh device or via iCloud?
How many contacts are being deleted?
All?
Recently added ones?

  • TS3899 Why do my emails keep disappearing from my iphone?  These are emails that I have not deleted.

    My emails keep disappearing from my inbox even though I have not deleted them.

    I have tried to rebuild the mailbox to no avail.  The mailbox behavior says:  Drafts (not checked) store draft messages on the server, Notes (checked) show not in Inbox, Sent (checked) Store sent messages on the server Delete sent messages when (option never selected), Junt (not checked) store junk messages on the server Delete junk messages when (option never selected), Trash (checked) moves deleted messages to the Trash mailbox and (checked)  store deleted messages on the server Permanently erase deleted messages when (one month old option selected).
    I have not set up any rules that I know of other than a signature, in the very least I have not changed any.

  • Why do my contacts keep disappearing?

    My iPhone 3Gs periodically loses all contacts. I restore them from a backup, and a short time later, they are gone again. I do not have iCloud turned on. (Tried it, hated it, turned it off.) Any idea what's going on? The only possible clues I have are:
    1. Once in awhile, just before contacts go away, the phone seems to turn itself off, then back on again. But I'm not positive about the timing of that.
    2. I use Pandora all the time, and the problem may have occurred while Pandora was doing something. Again, not positive, just suspicious.

    Im having somewhat the same thing.. I have a iphone 4 and for some reason it is deleting certain contacts. Funny thing is when you look at those contacts in message the msg's are there but the names are gone and there is a +1 infront of their numbers... Have tried everyth8ng short of wiping my cell clean... So frustrating... not being able to fix this..Oh and I have tried manually readding those contacts and within mins they disappear again...

  • Why do my messages keep disappearing from Notification Centre?

    I've only noticed this since upgrading to iOS 7.1 and I can't find any answers anywhere on the Internet. As the title states: why do my messages keep disappearing from Notification Centre? Usually after an hour or two. The badge on the app icon will stay and if I get another message, the new one shows up in Notification Centre, again just for a while.

    Salvizuno -
    did you ever solve this problem? i just upgraded to the 5s and my notifications disappear... and it is very frustrating. i have called apple support, gone to the apple store, swapped out my phone but with no luck... can you advise if and how you fixed the problem please?
    thanks!

  • My contacts have disappeared of my iPhone 4 after I tried a backup to iCloud. Can I recover these ?

    My contacts have disappeared of my iPhone 4 after I tried a backup to iCloud. Can I recover these ?

    Backups do not cause contacts to disappear.
    Why do you believe this has occurred?
    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service like iCloud/Exchange. 

  • My contacts have disappeared off my iphone 5s

    Hi
    My contacts have disappeared from my iphone 5s for no reason and dont know how to get them back, could you please help?

    Are these iCloud contatcs?
    Are all your contacts available when you sign into iCloud.com with your Apple ID from a web browser on your computer?
    If so, you can force a re-push from iCloud.com:
    On your phone: Settings > iCloud > Turn Contacts off > wait fro it to finish then turn them back on.

  • Music and videos keep disappearing off my iPhone

    I have an 16GB iPhone 5S running iOS 8.1.3. Seems that either since the last iOS update or iTunes update, music and videos keep disappearing off my iPhone. I'll copy stuff on and now, I'll double check that it's staying on the phone, but the next day, my music or video library will contain 'no content'. I'm not syncing any songs or videos and have 'Manually manage...' checked. I've restarted the iPhone and iTunes. It keeps happening. What I have found is that it seems to happen sometime after the songs or videos are copied onto the phone while the phone is still plugged into my MBP. It doesn't seem, and I may be wrong, to happen when the phone is not plugged in to the Mac. Another issue I've found since the upgrading is that the phone rarely syncs the 'last watched' time on any videos anymore. Any ideas about these issues?

    I have this problem too but movies and music delete a couple days later. I can watch half a movie one day and the next it disappears. I can also load music and listen to it all one day then they disappear in front of my eyes the next. these have all bern downloaded from the cloud on wifi at home.

  • Why do my recent phone contacts keep disappearing and re-appearing?

    I recently bought an iPhone 4S and synced my contacts from my previous smart phone.
    Now, the contacts I add get saved, but they keep disappearing and re-appearing automatically. This has been happening for almost a month now.
    It is very embarassing when my new Manager calls up and I ask who he is.
    Please help.

    So after the subscriptions disappeared yesterday, I resubscribed to Democracy Now! and Bill Moyers Journal.
    This morning, I went to check iTunes... and two of the subscriptions were gone -- AGAIN! And the episode of Democracy Now! that remained behind was now listed under real Tim with Bill Maher.
    I'm getting so frustrated with this... why am I having to re-subscribe to podcasts every day now?
