Ive had problem after ****ing problem since downloading IOS 8. lost all my music, got it back, lost it again, had 1 song downloaded, then got them all back.

then my iphone wouldnt sync to itunes

and now my charging cable is about to break.

AND NOW, I HAVE NO CONTACTS!!!

I have all my contacts saved in a folder on my MACBOOK, yet I cant find a way to send those contacts onto itunes....

PLEASE, for the love of GOD, can someone help me find out how to do so? All I want is to have the names of my contacts on my phone.

Sync it with iCloud if it is connected to it, if your contacts are in there they should show up. Check your settings :D

Then select to sync your contacts on the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync. When you sync you should get a merge or replace prompt for contacts. If you want to merge the contacts on your phone with those on your Mac, choose Merge.

wat?

wheres the 'summary tab'??

With the iPhone connected to iTunes, select the iPhone under Devices in the iTunes source list to make the various selections or tabs for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes available in the main iTunes window.

Across the top in the main iTunes window, the selections are; Summary, Info, Apps, Tones, Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, Books, Photos.
:D

ah right, thanks tom

that option isnt available anymore though

I've clicked on the 'Info' folder. There's a 'Import Contacts' button available, but no contacts are there. I've got 94 contacts on my macbook, they USED to be on my phone. now I cant figure out how to sync those contacts, to my phone.
