LOOSING CONTACTS ON i PHONE

maxresdefault

 

THE ALL NEW IOS 10 MAY WIPE OUT FEW OF YOUR CONTACTS 

This is quite true as a lot of  people are complaining about this. This could be because of the upgrading process as it seems like it glitches up with an option related to contacts i.e sync with an mail address or else deleting a particular account. The following instructions might help you to sort this out, if you lucky enough to completely follow these.

 

  1. The first thing first is to recognize the cause as what might be triggering this to happen. Now this could be because of any option unchecked in the iphone settings or else a mail account loop. The best thing you could do is go to your browser and check out all the synced mail accounts contacts so as to discover which mail account holds your contacts which are lost eventually this might solve half of your problems as for example if

I CLOUD         YAHOO             OUTLOOK

 

These are the mail accounts you have synced with your iphone then assume outlook holds all your lost contacts then outlook options are changed or holds responsibility for this loss.

The best part is your contacts are available and now you just have to sync them again with your iphone. In whole I have manged to compile a complete set of instructions for everyone as following these would definitely solve all your contacts related issues.

 

INSTRUCTIONS:

 

THE EARLIER WAY IS TO CHECK WHETHER YOU HAVE LOGGED IN  TO YOUR iCLOUD ACCOUNT IN SETTING IF SO THEN WHETHER THE CONTACTS OPTION IS CHECKED OR UN-CHECKED. IF THIS IS ALL GOOD THEN MOVE ON TO THE BELOW OPTIONS.

  • ON YOUR iPHONE GO TO SETTING >>>MAIL>>>ACCOUNT>>>NOW ONE BY ONE SELECT EACH MAIL ACCOUNT DISPLAYED THERE AND UN-CHECK THE CONTACTS OPTION TO OFF THIS WOULD ASK TO DELETE THE CONTACTS OF KEEP ON iPHONE YOU CAN SELECT ANY OF THESE OPTIONS AS IT WILL NOT EFFECT YOUR CONTACTS EITHER WAY.
  • NOW, AGAIN REPEAT THE STEP BY CHECKING IT AGAIN AND CLICKING ON MERGE WHEN ASKED BY YOUR PHONE. THIS IS THE FIRST STEP AND MIGHT SOLVE ALL YOUR ISSUES BUT JUST DON’T FORGET TO REPEAT THESE STEPS FOR ALL THE MAIL ACCOUNTS.

 

 

  • IF YOUR CONTACTS ARE STILL NOT SYNCED THEN YOU MIGHT WANT TO GO TO EACH AND EVERY MAIL ACCOUNT USING A PC  AND CHECK WITH WHICH ACCOUNT DOES THE CONTACTS LOST ARE AVAILABLE  AND THEN FOLLOW THE BELOW INSTRUCTIONS

 

  • ON YOUR iPHONE GO TO SETTINGS>>>CONTACTS>>>DEFAULT ACCOUNT>>> NOW SEE WHETHER HERE iCLOUD IS SELECTED OR NOT IF NOT THEN SELECT iCLOUD AND YOUR WOULD CERTAINLY NOTICE THE LOADING SIGN ON TOP DISPLAYING THE BACK-END CONTACTS RESTORING PROCESS.

 

THIS IS THE LAST STEP AND YOUR PROBLEM IS SOLVED. EVEN IF IT DOESN’T YOU MIGHT WANT TO COMMENT AND LET ME KNOW.

 

THANK YOU.
