  • On iCloud.com, go to Account Settings, then click Restore Contacts in the Advanced section.


Available versions are listed by the date and time they were archived.


  • To the right of the version you want to restore, click Restore.


There may be more versions than can be displayed. Scroll to see them all.


Note: Wait until iCloud finishes restoring your contacts before you change them. During the restore process, any changes you make aren’t saved.
