It’s getting ridiculous that Apple doesn’t have a fix for losing contacts. I started losing random contacts a few months ago and didn’t think much about it at first but now it’s very frustrating. I’ve had most of my contacts for years and haven’t changed anything as far as I know. I’ll add them back in and they may stay or may disappear again. I’ve tried to go to ICloud and restore but that doesn’t work either. Apple needs to fix this!

“I have had the same problem for about sixty days now. The engineers are 'working ' on it. Still no resolution so I added back entries myself. What is worse is lack of communication. Has ANYONE had any success?”

Seems to be catching on. Question is: “Just how many people have actually reported this to Apple?”

I am hoping more and more each day!
