I've a 4S and last week uploaded the IOS 7 operating system. Phone has been absolutely fine since.

I've picked it up now and since the last time I've used it I've lost the majority of my contacts data including my favourites, the only data that is left are contacts relating to shared Facebook contacts.

Anyone experienced anything similar and is it possible to retrieve the missing data?

I'm not happy; the phone was full of numbers.

Cheers wysiwyg, that's sorted it.

Goodness knows what I happened; I had a text and replied and the next time I went to the phone the contacts had disappeared!

Get an android phone next time, all contacts sync with your Gmail account

And now go and back your phone up to something other than iCloud.
