iphone 4s no longer plays music in my car!

Last week I lost all my contacts, they disappeared, everything else is in tact. I decided to do the upgrade that itunes asked for on my 4s, now I cant play any songs in my car when I plug my phone into usb. Worked perfectly fine before. Sometimes a song will play a bit and then just quit. The songs work fine when listening on itunes.I also noticed that when syncing a number of songs doubled on my playlists on my phone....any suggestions?

iPhone 4S, iOS 6.1.3

Hi hockeymom11!

So it looks like you have a couple of issues here, let me address them individually. If you have a backup in either iTunes or iCloud, you will want to apply that backup to your iPhone in order to get your contacts back. The article informing you on restoring from your backup can be found here:

As far as the songs go, you will probably want to try deleting all of the songs off of your phone and resyncing them onto your iPhone.

The car stereo issue is a little more intricate, and has a whole article to itself outlining troubleshooting steps. You can find that article right here:

Hope that helps, and thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

Cheers,
