I lost my outlook contacts while syncing with cell phone

[renee]

i just got a new cell phone, the shadow, and when i plugged it in to sync my
outlook contacts a window popped up that said certain contacts could not be
syncronized. I clicked on OK and all the contacts that weren't synced were
gone from outlook and I can't find them.

Did the sync program move them to the Deleted Items folder?

Restore them from the most recent backup you've made. You do make regular
Outlook backups, correct?

i have the same problem , and i don't have backup, what i can do now?

Recreate them from scratch. Changes made by syncing are permanent. You
should never attempt syncing without performing regular backups of your
data. You shouldn't even use a computer without doing regular backups unless
you have no use for your data.
