My daughter just got an iphone 4s, and was setting up her phone today using my iTunes account (by accident). She synced her phone on her PC laptop, and noticed that she had all of my contacts now on her new phone. She decided to delete these contacts.
I noticed today that my iphone 4 now had all of her contacts on it, and my own were wiped out. I realized that iCloud probably did this, so I shut it off on my phone, and called her to tell her how to disable iCloud so no other changes would occur. I also told her to switch to her iTunes account.
Before all this happened, my iphone was synced with my 13" MacBook, which recently experienced a fatal hard drive crash, and was restored. The tech said that he rescued as much user data as he could for the new HD. When I started up my laptop, all my itunes music was there, but my address book was bare. I haven't had a chance to sync my phone with the restored laptop before this happened today.
So now, I was hoping to find any sort of address book library file that might have a chance of restoring my contacts. I have some user data recovered from the laptop's old HD, but I can't seem to find a good file. I've done a search for ".vcf" files in the spotlight, and have found some email contacts, but not exactly what I'm hoping for.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Specs below.
