Plea For Help

To follow up from yesterday's post as succinctly as possible, I'll just say that my iPhone software update didn't go quite according to plan. Actually, the phrase "total disaster" might be a better description. Four hours after starting the process, I had successfully downloaded the new software, but had also lost every ounce of data stored on my phone. Fortunately, I had just backed up my photos, but I lost all my contacts. Readers familiar with the iPhone will tell me that they should still be on the exchange server that I sync to for my email and calendar. This is true -- I SHOULD have synced my contacts. I had a good reason not to, which I won't get into here. Suffice it to say that I have lost the address and phone number of everyone I am close to, including my parents and best friends. If you are reading this, that probably means you. So help me out and email your contact info to eklanche at umich dot edu. I'll send you a holiday card!
