Recover contacts after deleting from iCloud?

Question

I recently purchased a MacBookPro which I synced to the same iCloud account that my iPhone is synced with. When I did this, the birthdays of all my contacts showed up as a day late on my MacBookPro. So I decided to resync them.

I (incorrectly) went to the preferences for the Contacts app on my MacBookPro and changed the account to "On My Mac" and then deleted all of my contacts. Then my brain caught up and I quickly went to System Preferences and stopped iCloud syncing contacts. Too late. Now my iPhone has no contacts either. I don't suppose there's any way of getting them back?

Answer 1

iCloud does not maintain history of your data, so if you have deleted a contact from your iPhone or iCloud, you can only recover if you restore from your most recent iCloud backup that contained the contacts. If you do not have an iCloud backup, you cannot recover a deleted contact.

Answer 2

Only if you have synced your iPhone on iTunes, you can get all your contacts back by using a third-party iPhone data recovery software - Tenorshare iTunes Data Recovery, which helped me recover iPhone contacts I deleted by mistake before.
