Always worried that one day you might just loose all of your contacts in Gmail. No need to worry anymore with Gmail Contacts Restore. Now Restoring your Contacts is a thing of the past.
Restore contacts
- Recovering contacts that have been accidentally deleted
- Restoring contacts after an unsuccessful sync
- Undoing a recent import
- Undoing a recent merge
To restore your contacts to a previous version, just follow these steps:
- Click Contacts.
- From the More actions drop-down menu, choose Restore contacts.
- Choose the time you'd like to revert your contacts list to (e.g. 10 minutes ago, one hour ago, one week ago, etc). We suggest that you also make a note of the time that you restore your contacts, in case you'd like to return to where you started.
- Click Restore. You'll see a confirmation at the top of the screen when the rollback is complete.
To undo a restoration:
- When the operation completes, a notification bar will appear that gives you the opportunity to immediately undo the restore. This notification bar will disappear if you leave Contacts or make edits to your contacts.
- If the notification bar is no longer there, you can always re-run the Restore Contacts tool to take you back to where you started. Just set the tool to take you to the time just before you started the whole process.
