Why have i lost all my contacts on my iphone4s that I just purchased 5 days ago?
I noticed that the contacts were there a couple of days a go and now the whole contacts directory is gone. This is my first iphone having had a Blackberry Storm prior to this. I just signed up for icloud and I'm wondering if it might have been something that I might have done. I'm not familiar with many of the options on the iphone.
Thank you

Have you tried to synce this with iCloud or resotre to factory settings? Try to sync it to your Itunes again and lets hope for a good result.

  • Why have I lost all my contacts on iPhone4?

    Over the last 24 hours all my contacts have disappeared from my iPhone 4.  I had not updated or sync'd just recharged?

  • Why have I lost all the books in my iBooks library?

    Why have I lost all the books in my IBooks library since it was updated to iBooks 1.5. My library is now blank & I'm not a happy chappie!
    Can anybody help me please! I'm disabled & it's not easy for me to sync my iPad with my PC so I'm hoping that I won't need to do that.

    You can redownload any purchased books without syncing with your PC. To do this, open iBooks on your iPad, click on the Store button at the upper left of the screen. Once the store loads, you'll see a tab labeled Purchased on the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen. Click there and you'll be able to download any books that you purchased from the iBookstore.

  • HT5824 Why have I lost the Outlook contacts and can only access those in icloud on both my laptop and desktop computers

    I am trying to send information to one of the contacts that is normally in my outlook address book. That book appears to have gone away. The only contacts I have are those in icloud. I would think they would sync. Apparently i need to do that manually? Many of the contacts that have formerly lived in outlook do not show up in icloud. ?????

    If it works on one Firefox 3.6.10 installation, it should work on the other - assuming both PC's have exactly the same version of Norton installed, including that Firefox Toolbar extension. Another possibility is that Norton uses a different version of their software on WinXP than they use on Vista.
    Tools > Addons > Extensions - does the Norton Toolbar show as being incompatible?
    You could try forcing a Norton program update to see if their Firefox extension gets updated.

  • My screen has gone blank and have now lost all my contacts

    My screen on my torch 9800 has gone blank. I then plugged the device into the computer to see whether there was any downloads that would help but was told that the phone had never been synced when it had. The result meaning I have lost my contacts, etc. Please help????!!!!!

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    First things first...your data...everything else is IMHO secondary.
    When you say you have synced your BB, how exactly have you done that in the past?
    True synchronization with, for example, Outlook? If so, then please check Outlook (or whatever other PC Organizer app you are using) to be sure you still have all of your data...and, to be safe, copy all of your contacts and calendar to a safe PST just in case.
    On the other hand, if by "synced", you mean backed up, then look on your PC for IPD files...those would be the files that store your data as of the date/time you took that backup...and they remain there, available for restore if needed.
    So, please clarify your situation concerning your data before we proceed with any device diagnostics...the data is much more important than the device, and I want to be sure your data is safe before we attempt anything with the device.
    Thanks and let us know!

  • Updated my iPhone 4  to iOS 5 and have now lost all my contacts, messages, photo's etc? HELP!!

    Hi guys,
    I have just updated my iphone 4 to iOS 5 and have lost everything!
    I did a back up prior to the install and have the latest version of iTunes. I completed the install and went to retrieve the back up via a restore, I selected the latest restore, it thinks about it then comes up with the following error message:  "File is corrupt or not compatible with this phone"
    I was also perviously using Mobile Me for instances like this, though my accont has recently expired and I can no longer access it, all my data was stored on there. Annoying!
    Can anyone help? Be a huge help...

    If you made a backup in iTunes before upgrading you can access the data with iPhone / iPod Touch Backup Extractor.
    Can be downloaded from here: http://supercrazyawesome.com/
    This helped me getting my Notes back after the upgrade to iOS 5.

  • Contacts app goes directly to "Groups" and I have lost all my contacts? How did that happen and now do I get them back?

    I added a contact last night to my contacts list on my iPhone 4S. Today I have no contacts at all. When I select my Contacts app it brings me to a screen that says "Groups". Under that there is only the name of the contact I added last night. I have never synced my iPhone to a computer so they wouldn't be there and I looked in iCloud and the contacts are not there either. Anybody know what happened here and if I can get my contacts back?
    Thanks.

    I did too is everyone had this problem too?

  • Why have I lost all my information on my iphone because i accidentally delete my apple ID

    i need to recover all my previously bought apps and ring tones etc.  I deleted my apple ID account on the phone by accident but has now re install it back.  so where is all my notepad info and my phone contacts gone.

    I have done the restore to a date in february, however my info that I recently added in july is not on the phone...grrrrrrrr!! I refuse to believe that all the info could just disappear like that when icloud is meant o always back up on wifi.

  • Why have I lost all my audiobooks which were in my library but not on my iPad since the last iTunes update?

    I Have recently allowed iTunes to update itself, and have only just gone into it, only to find that all the books and audiobooks that I hade in my library have disappeared !!!!! Including books and audiobooks I had purchased, both from iTunes and other sources.
    Why has this happened? And how do I get them back?
    Please, someone, help!

    Audiobooks are not avaiable for redownload from iTunes, though I suspect you may find they are still on your computer even if not currently listed in your library. This may help...
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    Would you mind telling me which anti-virus package you use? It may be that it is disturbing iTunes when it tries to write out the fresh database, as it does after almost any activity with your library. I'm noticing more of this type of problem than usual and trying to see if there is any pattern. It may help to prevent a repeat of the problem if you look at the advanced options for your AV package and see if you can find a way to exclude the iTunes folder from any real-time scanning process.

  • My husband and I both have iphones and share the same apple id. Everything was working fine until I synced his phone which lost all his contacts and pictures and gave him my info. I then used verizon's contact retreival app and got his contacts back

    My husband and I both have iphones and everything was ok until I synced his phone and lost all his contacts and pixs.
