    I bought an iphone off the mother in law on the condition I save her photos and contacts off it. On plugging the iphone into the itunes I was able to back up the photos via a photo wizard.

    Of course it all went wrong with the contacts, I couldn't see the contacts and saved them but then decided I'd synch them with my yahoo contacts and instead of yahoo saving the contacts from the phone it wiped them and replaced them with the 3 contacts from my yahoo address book.

    My question is how do I retrieve the contacts?

    I think now it's too late as they've been replaced on the phone by your yahoo contacts. Hopefully someone else will know if there is a way to get them back.

    Does she have itunes on another PC, maybe they're saved on that one?

    Was ye phone ever updated since she got it. If so there has to be a backup on some pc and that will contain the contacts
