iPhone contacts not showing up

In most situations, the issue can be resolved with one of the following suggestions:

iPhone contacts program for PC

Be patient

Upon launching the program for the first time, please be patient and wait until CopyTrans Contacts finishes loading all your data. At this point, the program is pulling all the contacts, messages, notes, etc. from your iPhone and forming a local backup to protect your data in case any of the operations goes wrong. Forming a local backup will take a while, but it will only be this long once: the next launches will be much quicker. So, do not disconnect device or try to operate the program until the loading icon disappears:

iPhone contacts not syncing

If your iPhone is synced with iCloud, Gmail, or Yahoo accounts:

See our guide on how to enable iCloud, Gmail, or Yahoo account in CopyTrans Contacts.

If your iPhone is synced with Exchange:

Upon launching the program for the first time, please be patient and wait until CopyTrans Contacts finishes loading all the contacts, messages, etc. Note that Exchange contacts load only after the text messages are listed. In most cases, contacts sourced from Exchange are loaded swiftly. Still, depending on the number of messages, the process may take up to 20 minutes.

If your CopyTrans Contacts is up to date but you still do not see your Exchange contacts, it may be that the iOS backup files on your iPhone are encrypted. In this case, please type in the iOS backup encryption password. If you are not sure what this password is or why the program asks for it, please see our article about iPhone backup password.
