How to get your contacts back on iphone?

I backed up my phone on itunes. Then when I went to switch to the new phone all my data is not there. (i plugged it back into itunes). At first there was an error message and said the software was too old and i needed to update to osi 6. If i go under advance in itunes I see when I backed it up. I just don't know how to transfer all the data.

If you still have the data on your old phone put the contacts under a folder then plug in your other phone and download it or take the SD card out of the port of your old phone and put it in the new then save the numbers with that.

  • Lost all my contacts, messages, and pictures on my iPhone, can I get it back? I got a new iPhone for Christmas and haven't synced it at all with the iTunes on my computer until now. When I synced it, it asked if I wanted to restore the information from my iPod, or start it as a new iPhone. I thought the restore option would just carry over all my songs, but now I've lost all my contacts, messages, and pictures I had on my iPhone and it looks exactly like my iPod does. Is there any way to fix this?
