Contacts on Mac-Mini disappeared after turning on iCloud

I dropped the phone flip 3 weeks ago and you own an iPhone SE. used shortcut Yahoo mail on the self to put in place the Mail (IMAP) iOS and it worked OK.  But, I wanted to be able to choose from different 'reply-to' e-mail addresses when sending in the iOS Mail, so I deleted the SE today and manually Yahoo email account added the yahoo account in iOS Mail which then allowed me to add my various addresses 'reply-to' for the account (for some reason that the option was not available when you use the Yahoo shortcut to configure the IMAP account).

But that now, meant that I was is more synchronized on the self to the Yahoo mail on the web addressbook, I've built over the years.  No worries, well--I decided to use iCloud for access/sync Contacts (and only) on my Mac Mini.

The problem: when I registered in iCloud, on the Mini first, then the iPhone IS, nothing happened as far as I could tell.  There was no "synchronization" happening as far as I could tell.  I've created a contact test on the self to see if she would come over to the Mini and it was around this time that I realized all the 1,000 or contacts on the Mini were so missing, except one or two under my name!  And at some point I noticed that the contact test synced on more Contacts on the Mini!  So, somehow I deleted contacts from the Mini and then synchronized with the iPhone successfully SE?

More info: I think that when I turned first on iCloud on the Mini, I can accidentally switch off answering a question on this that need localization service to find my Mac.   I think that I turned on the self iCloud and when nothing happened, I went back on the Mini and rekindled iCloud.

Therefore, the Mini contacts are lost forever (contact details are all text, no image or anything complicated)?   I did a full backup of the Mini five weeks before installing El Capitan, although I don't know how or where Apple stores Contacts information).  How are they so easily deleted in the first place the mini?  It is the error of the operator on iCloud getting to work or is it a bug any? He works this contact because a trial moved on? I know, there was problems with iCloud when El Capitan came out last year.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Note that the Mac Mini is running El Capitan 10.11.4

  • Bluetooth icon tray disappears after turning off the USB bluetooth adapter in the system tray

    You seem to have a problem with your bluetooth icon. If you cannot match something you can try to remove the device and then put it back. I tried it didn't work. Then, you may need to disable bluetooth adapter on the icon. But if you do that you cannot turn it back on because the bluetooth icon status bar disappears when the adapter is disabled. Also it does not appear in "peripheral" that the adapter is turned off. You must go to the C:\Program WIDCOMM software and double-click BTTray.exe to redisplay the icon, and then turn on the adapter. Come on Microsoft, surely it would be easier to just gray exit icon at its stop, then your right click the greyed to activate the adapter turn it back on. Simple really.

  • Blue Tooth Mouse pairing attempts failed on Mac mini after several months of service

    Hello support team,

    My attempts pairing Blue Tooth Mouse (for my "Easy blue Typhoon" made in Germany) are retained is NOT on my Mac mini once I used the 'Typhoon BlueEasy' mouse for several months in good pairing function combined with my Mac mini.

    Already I changed the batteries (which are not emptied) for rechargeable batteries (filled 100%) now - but this does not solve the problem of coupling:

    The easy blue Typhoon is not damaged/broken - it works fine on my other devices.

    I think that all of a sudden the 'mini Apple Mac system' blocked matching by some unknown reason.

    You said "it works well on my other devices".

    The other device are on and have Bluetooth turned on?

    By adding a third partition you have damaged the boot loader. If you use Boot Camp to run Windows, so you cannot add a third partition.

  • End of 2012 Mac mini won't go beyond screen bar startup after update 10.11.4

    Hey all,.

    I'm puzzled.  I have a Late 2012 Mac mini, upgrade 10.11.4 yesterday, after the computer restarts, it was stuck around 60% on the progress of startup screen.  I let it go for 12 hours, nothing.  The screen fell asleep, and when I woke up it I had a mouse cursor which would pass but nothing to use it with.  When you try to start in safe mode, I get a little further, about 95% and then she stalls.  When booting into single user mode, it stops at "pci break: SDXC.  I fixed the disk with DiskWarrior on the repair disk, no help.  Any help would be greatly appreciated, getting very frustrated and I would like to solve it, instead of doing a restore.

    I forgot to add, that when starting in Diag mode, I wonder for a wifi network reach, I do then it's right there.  Do not enter an IP address.

    Thank you!

    The Diag mode gives me an error-2002D.  Looks like I have some errors going on here :/

  • BBM BBM all contacts disappeared after 'Clear data' on Android

    Hello

    I want to spend all my contacts of Xperia to Experia Z2 Z1. I re - install BBM on Z2 and connection I just advise that to close your session just erase the data. So I "(effacer les données om mon Sony Xperia Z1) (setting > apps > BBM)." After that I have to connect on Xperia Z2, but only 6 available contafts. There are 106 contacts on my Xperia Z1. I deleted the BBM on Z2 and connection on Xperia Z1 but contact only 6.

    How to recover all my contacts who have already disappeared?

    Thank you.

    Timmy

    Erasure of data from the method you described does not BBM, BBM contacts contacts are stored in your BBID, which cannot be removed by deleting BBM data on an Android device.

    Can you please confirm that you are using the same BBID on Xperia Z2 that you used on the Z1 Xperia? When you open the BBM for the first time on the Xperia Z2, choose 'Connect' and enter the e-mail address and the password for the BBID you used on your old device.

    Let me know how it goes!
