Before you delete an exchange account check that you are not deleting contacts, reminders, notes, etc. The default account for storing contacts was the Exchange account. In my case, although I wasn't working for the company I sued to work for. Always check on you iPhone under Settings -> Contacts -> Default Account. The free version might be enough if all you want is to recover some missing contacts.ġ. PS2: If you still want to try to recover some of the lost contacts (data in general), you can use some tools such as Dr.Fone. PS1: Some of the contacts added during the last 6 months might have been lost but I do prefer this option rather than loosing 2000+ contacts that were linked to the Exchange account. Logged into iCloud on my iPhone and all the contacts were there. Restored (back) my iPhone using the latest backup (the one from today).Ĩ. You can check that all the missing contacts are now accessible on 7. I waited a few minutes so it's synced to iCloud.
I was asked if I wanted to keep the duplicates or update the duplicate contacts. I have a mac so all I needed to do is double click the export archive and it was open in the app "Contacts". Imported the whole export archive to iCloud. Downloaded an iPhone app called "My Contacts Backup" and exported all the contacts (vCard format) and emailed the export to myself (using the app).ĥ. If you have multiple iOS devices, we recommend that you use an iCloud account to sync your contacts across the devices instead of enabling the Save Contacts setting on individual devices. Found all the contacts (icloud and exchange) as of 6 months ago.Ĥ. The Save Contacts setting is enabled on multiple iOS devices, such as an iPad and an iPhone. Restored the iPhone using the 6 month old backupģ. I found a solution to my problem, and I am sharing what I did in case others run into the same problem.Ģ.
