2.Recover iPhone contacts from iTunes backup

You can restore your iPhone contacts from iTunes backup in two ways: directly restore the entire backup via iTunes, or selectively recover contacts from the backup via Wondershare dr.fone for ios. You can choose one the most suitable for you.

Restoring the entire backup from iTunes

1 Restore the whole iTunes backup file

Disable auto synchronization first, preventing your iPhone from syncing automatically:

For Windows users: Run iTunes, go to < Edit < Preferences... < Devices.

For Mac users: Run iTunes, go to < iTunes < Preferences... < Devices

Then connect your iPhone to the computer. Go to the "Devices" again, choose the backup file of your iPhone and click on the "Restore" button. When the restore is complete, your iPhone will restart and all the contacts in the backup is on your iPhone now.




2 Selectively recovering iPhone contacts from iTunes backup

Step 1. Scan the backup file

There will be a list of backup files displayed, after you click Recover from iTunes Backup File on the top of the program's window. Choose the one for your iPhone and click Start Scan.

Step 2. Preview and recover your iPhone contacts

The scan only takes you a few seconds. All the contents from the backup file will be displayed in details. You can read them all. Then check the box in front of any item you want, and click the Recover button.

3.Recover deleted iPhone contacts from iCloud backup

There are two ways for you to recover contacts from your iCloud backup: Merge it to your iPhone or restore it to your iPhone.

Merge iCloud contacts on your iPhone: Go to Settings < iCloud. Log in to your Apple ID and turn off the item of Contacts. Then turn it on and choose Merge on the pop-up message. Then all contacts in the iCloud backup is back to your iPhone.

Restore iCloud backup to your iPhone: In this way, you need to set your iPhone as a new device by going to Settings < General < Reset < Erase All Content and Settings, and then choose Erase iPhone on the pop-up message. When it restarts, you can choose toRestore from iCloud Backup.

Apparently, the first way is highly recommended. If there are really special reasons that you can't do it by the merging way, the second way still can be an option.

One more way: recover only contacts from iCloud backup

Dr.fone also lets you extract the iCloud backup and selectively recover whatever you want from it, so that you don't need to restore the whole backup and reset your iPhone. If you want to have a try, you can download the trial version to try it by yourself. It only takes you a few minutes.

Note: When you're doing this, do keep your internet is connected.
