All my contacts have mysteriously have vanished from my Iphone. I cannot get my MacBook to sync my contacts back to my Iphone. Any ideas??? I have already restored my software from itunes. Ever since MolbleMe update, things seem to go crazy..

Have you tried the advanced option in itunes under info? It is located at the bottom of the page. It allows you to "replace information on this iphone".

The only selection under advance is Mail Accounts. No Calendars or Contacts.

You need the latest update of itunes. Get that first.

I appreciate your replys , however my itunes is up tp date with 7.7 (43). I guess I will try reinstalling ITunes and see what that does. A little brain storming to get the thought process working always helps. Thats what I like about these forums. Thanks again.

BTW, a word of thought. I do not have "edge" on now because I'm currently out of country for a few days. This all started after arriving here in Guam. It may have something to do being out of the MobileMe environment. I think my contacts should still sync back from my laptop though.

Problem Solved!!!! This what I ended up doing "dturner".

On my iphone, went to Settings; Mail, Contacts, Calenders; selected my "me" account; deleted it; Add Account; and set up a Me account using my existing account information.

Re-sync'ed and all is well.

Thanks again dturner!!!
