IPhone :: All Contact Lost After Update To IOS 5.1.1?
Jun 10, 2012
I just update mine & my wife's iphone4 from ios 4.1 to ios 5.1.1. Initially my iphone lost all the contact.After I try "Restore from backup" in itunes & luckily I got back everything including contacts. But no luck for my wife's iphone.She still lost all the contacts even after "Restore from backup". I try restore for several times but still have same problem.Isn't it the backup will keep the contacts?
i have problem with my iphone4, it was ios 4.3.3 then i update into 5.1.1. before i doing upgrade i have backup all my data into pc via itunes but not succesed, then i do for upgrade because ithink all my contact not lost after do upgrade ios. but now, all my contact lost. can you help me how to recover my contact data ? i'ts looks like if data in pc lost we can recovered using tools. but how if iphone?
Why I have lost all imessages for a certain contact from 2009 - 6th July 2014. Imessages since 6th July are still there. More importantly, how I can get them back?
Recently, my iPhone 5 had very little storage left. After deleting many apps I was able to free up enough space to update it from iOS 8.1 to 8.1.1. After that, I had very little storage again. Because of this, my phone started to act up, like apps not opening and text messages not being received. With this, the pictures to all of my contacts disappeared. I was wondering if there was any way to get them back without restoring to another backup?
When I upgraded my wife's iPhone 3G to 5.1, I lost all her contact information and she ended up with mine.
During the upgrade process, I thought it backed up her data. But it doesn't seem to be available to restore. Isn't that a normal part of the upgrade process and shouldn't it be available somewhere?
Unfortunately, she did not sync this data with any application.
I have an Iphone 3G, and this weekend, when I connected to Itunes, it upgraded to the 4.0 software and *SAID* it was backing up all of my information (contacts, calendars, etc). The software upgraded and it all works fine but *ALL* of my information is GONE! nothing is on the SIM card, because I tried putting it into another phone. I back up my entire computer to my Time Machine regularly. I spent 1 hour on the phone with a "Genius" while I wasn't at home who repeatedly nagged me to back up my phone. Tonight I spent 45 mins, most of the time, the "genius" didn't know where my contact data even saves. In the end, tried copying last back up before the upgrade to 4.0 software and restore my Iphone to that backup, but it was a no-go.
My IPhone 4 connected to my mac today. Took a call, then looked through my phone and all the phone numbers have lost there contact name details. It seems that the problem is related to Sync as my contacts are located via microsoft outlook. But sync details are turned on and they are not syncing. Have backed up office 2011 and reinstalled fresh, and still not syncing is happening. So that would say that this is not an office related software issue. I'm lost to backup all and start from scratch.
I just updated software to iOS 7.1.1, and now I have no contact list. Icon is there, but there are only a couple of Facebook contacts. Never had those in my Contacts before. How to recover my old contact list?
After receiving a replacement Tour, I performed the device switch wizard, and all came through fine except...I no longer have the notepad icon, looked everywhere..."show all", options - > Applications -> All and I can't find it.I also can't find a setting for my phone, or desktop software that will allow me to accept meeting requests.
Found an Iphone from Cochin. while I was returning. I had been unable to access it till today. The set had taken quite a beating and was hung. I restored it an jailbroke it, but nw unable to access any prev info as well as the sim is blocked. So I have no ways of identifying whose phone it is. Anyone who has lost it in Kerala, pls revert back with sufficient details.
So I added a contact to BBM.The SMS conversation history with that contact then disappeared!I did a battery pull, powered back up, now the conversation icon is there but it's empty!How can you get SMS history saves screwed up? I am so angry right now!
My provider was not able to. I had to get my phone switched out and I asked them to transfer all information from my old phone to my new phone. Well, to my surprise they returned my new phone to me and it did not have my contact information, my memo notes nor my text messages. They said this information was lost. (1) how this could have happened and (2) Is there anyway to capture this lost information. It is very important that I retrieve this information back..
I bought a Galaxy s5 & the Vodafone bloke tried to copy my contacts from my Galaxy Y to my Galaxy s5. I am not 100% sure the method he used but now on my new galaxy s5 i only have a list of contact NAMES but no numbers with those names. On my galaxy Y i only have numbers with NO names!
I've left my phone with them for 4 days now & they can't resolve the issue. They said that i have a VCR file.
After I ran the latest update on my 9930 phone.. I lost one of my contact lists. I have three emails tied to the phone, and all three show up in emails and calendar. When I go into the Contact Options and view Contact Lists, the main one no longer appears. How can I get that one back? I have tried everything and it was there before the update.
My BB bold experienced a "JVM error 517" problem so I had to reinstall my phone firmware however doing so erased everything on my contact list. Any body knows how to retrieve my contact list?
I recently just changed over to gmail and after installing the gmail app all my contacts in my BlackBerry 8330 have seem to disapeared. Is there anyway of recovering these contact? I have no backup or other app I was syncing my contacts too before this.
Just got an Xperia X10. I have been trying to edit some contacts. When I finish editing, I tap "done", it says "saving contacts", then when I look in the contact list, that contact is gone! I've lost 3 contact details so far.
I can't synch my contact list with outlook using BB desktop software. This seems to have happened after recent software upgrade. When I scroll the Synch options contact and calendar are missing. When I go to Device and Advance Settings and Default Services only my webmail accounts are shown and none of my outlook email accounts. How can I get back to synching with my outlook folder?
I seem to have lost some contact information. Though many of my contacts are still intact, others no longer show a secondary phone number I once entered, or some contacts seem to have disappeared completely.The strange thing is, when I dial one of the "lost" numbers manually, the contact's name does show up! But I can't find it in the list of contacts. I have already checked and unchecked the Business and Personal options in the filter menu, but that didn't do the trick.Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?note: this problem is not my own - I'm asking for a friend of mine
Just one contact from Blackberry Messenger get lost when you close the chat window of that contact?? I mean, I just have the problem with one contact (the rest is ok) and I have to be sending invitation each time I lost that contact. I already have the last messenger version and the problem still continue.
Normally, when somebody calls you, you can see the name and telephonenumber (when this someone is in your contactlist) in the screen of your phone. A couple of days ago (nothing strange happened) this suddenly changed and now I can only see the number of the caller and not the name, which I find quite annoying.
I had used the hack to jail break my iPhone 4. At the time my OS was 4.0. Last night I updated my OS to 4.0.1 and lost cydia. And I have tried to go to the website and reinstall it but it won't work and automatically brings me back to my home screen. Is there any way to get cydia back on my iPhone or have I completely messed it up.
just updated my 3gs to the newest software, but have lost my favorite ringtone, its still on my mac in itunes, but gone from the phone......... re sync done and its still not there ?
I backed up to itunes before update, but last known update showing in itunes is 2010?I had just updated itunes to latest software, if this would make any difference!After the restore has completed, if i open phone app and go onto favourites, the names show for a second and then it goes back to showing numbers only.
Contact list only shows a blank( well.... lined) sheet, as opposed to the alphbetical list on the R/H side. I didn't have icloud, so not backed up to there!!
Also, there is not a "contact groups" icon in the top right of contacts, as suggested on other answers for this problem.
