[QUOTE="MacsWork, post: 1344451, member: 11094"] Your contacts are stored in a database file. There are not individual contact files that can be deleted and sent to the trash. When you delete a contact you are simply deleting a database record. You are right. It is probably not the first time someone deleted contacts from iCloud or any other type of sync feature. It's also not the first time said action was done without a backup of their data. But I bet it will be the last time for you right? Did you ever sync the iPhone with iTunes? Did you ever store your contacts somewhere else? [/QUOTE]
