Events are gone, can't import from Finder.

Mac OS X 10.7.4
iCal 5.0.3(1605.3)
Events for 2012 disappeared from on my mac calendars (5 calendars). I can see the .ics events in ~/Library/Calendars but they will not import. When I try to File/Import/Import... nothing happens. When I double click on the event in finder it looks like the icon goes to iCal but it does not prompt me for the correct calendar and the event does not show up on any of the 5 calendars.
It is not an issue with iCloud (I think). I think it is a format issue with the .ics file, Sample:

I have the same problem with a different camera.
I have used my Sony TRV27 Handycam in making movies primarily with iMovie 6.0.3 on my former G5. It did record from the camera to iMovie 7.1.4 on my Intel core 2 but now can't get in to import to either program 6.0.3 or 7.1.4. It will not recognize that the camera is attached or switch the camera icon to camera mode. If it does it only shows Built in iSight or Time Lapses.
I prefer to use the older iMovie camera because of the options and familiarity of it. I do not care for the newer iMovie program format.
I went to the system profiler as suggested and found firewire but have no idea what the Firewire Device Tree looks like nor did I see anything on the right except Firewire Bus speed.
I have been using the cord from Sony in the past to import movies. My computer does not show the camera even though in Finder/Preferences connected services are checked to show up on the desk top.
I phoned Apple Care today and got virtually no help. The gentleman kept saying it was the camera that was at fault. Or it was the ? slot in the computer that wasn't working. They both work. I checked. I see by posts a lot of other camera owners are having similar problems.

HT4623 Updating iPad2 to iOS 7, all my photos in camera rolls are gone, can't locate them anywhere?! Were they just deleted, or is there a way to find them? Did not have iCloud account, so not backed-up there.

Just updated our iPad2 to iOS 7, and all my photos in camera rolls are gone, can't locate them anywhere. Were they just deleted, or is there a way to find them? Did not have iCloud account, so not backed-up there.

We're you backing up to a computer using iTunes? If so, restore the backup from there.

FCP X deleted about 2/3 of events to a project and the project. I uploaded the project to vimeo from FCP X, and the next day when I tried to use FCPX, they were gone, the events are gone from fcp and my ext hd, the project is still on the ext hd.

Thanks for the reply Andy.
No, I don't have identical projects on a second drive, only saving to the movies folder on internal HD. The files and media save there fine, but fcp doesn't seem to recognise them the next day, just opens with one new untitled event and no projects.
I have tried saving to en external HD tonight and will see if the problem happens again with this set up when I restart tomorrow.
But I should be able to save to internal HD, so something is going wrong...

Everything is gone from outlook - how do I put it back and turn off iCloud for my calendar?

I have an older phone, the Iphone 4. For some reason, all of my calendar events are gone. I can't see old, present or future events. Help me please. I need this information.

I want to remove all of my photos out of iPhoto there are approximately 35000 some imported from an old hard drive and a SD Card from my Nikon D500 how do I do this

I want to remove all of my photos out of iPhoto there are approximately 35000 some imported from an old hard drive and a SD Card from my Nikon D500 how do I do this?
I have iPhoto version 9.1.5 (615)
Mac OS X version 10.6.8
I want to do this because when I imported from my old hard drive there was an error message stating that 12 photos were not imported as the programm did not recognise the format even though they were jpegs like the other photos in that particular album. The dates of the photo folders are wrong I have multiple copies of photos and every time I start iPhoto I get the following message 12 photos have been found in the iPhoto library that were not imported would you like to import them No or Yes
if you press Yes the same message comes back again and if you press Yes again the program flicks to last import for 2 seconds and then opens events.
if you press No the message The photos have been placed in the folder/user/judith/pictures/iphoto Library recovered photos then if you press OK the original message 12 photos have been found.............
if you press No at this point the message The photos have been placed in the folder/user /judith/pictures/iphoto Library recovered photos_11 the end number goes up by 1 every time you go through this process
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Did you import an iPhoto Library from the old Hard Drive? Do you still have that old Library?
The way to clear out a Library is to Export the photos - Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
For the annoying start-up message:
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
Start iPhoto. Does that help?
If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

Can't import from Cannon HV20.

I can't import from my Cannon HV20. The camera does not show up as an external camera. I just get the message "to import video, please connect a camera". I get the same message when connecting to my laptop and I have tried two different firewire cables. I have gone through the settings on the camera and I don't see anything that would prevent it. I have the camera in play mode and powered on. I have successfully imported from this camera many times. This started yesterday when I plugged the camera in while using ichat and ichat crashed. I suspect the firewire connection on the camera is damaged.
Any ideas?

Did you restore your phone with itunes or check new phone. You can always reconnect with itunes and restore your phone to old settings and it should replace everything because it is on your computer

Can't import from Sony XDCAM memory card to FCP 6

I can't import from Sony XDCAM memory card to FCP 6.01 HD. Am using Macbook Pro, 2 gig of RAM. This is my first time NOT using tape. I can copy the files off the memory card onto an external drive (to free up the card for pro crew's next day's shoot), but can't import either to FCP. Do I need to convert the files in some way before FCP can read them? Need to fix this problem fast as the crew are off to Nepal for 2 week shoot.

Laura,
First, I'm assuming that you're referring to the XDCAM EX. You'll need to install the FCP 6.0.2 upgrade, which contains the XDCAM EX codecs.
Second, You'll need to install the PDZK-P1 Transfer Application, and use that to import your EX clips into FCP. I just noticed that there is a new version available, 2.5.1 which is labeled specifically for Tiger/Leopard. I haven't tested this version yet, and will report back on any stability issues. We're currently running version 2.1.1, without many issues.

Changed calendar association, now events are gone!

I have both work and personal calendars on my iCal. For work purposes (i.e. support testing, etc), I changed the calendar association of one of my repeating events and now it's gone! I changed the event from my "Work" calendar to one of my work's gmail calendars. Both the gmail calendar and the Work calendar now are checked, but the events are gone!
I have verified that both calendars ("Work" and gmail account) have "Calendar" sharing checked off under Account Settings. Any advice would be much appreciated. Not sure if it's related, but just prior to this, I enabled a subscription to a work calendar to my gmail account calendar. These work events are showing up normally on the gmail calendar sub of iCal.

Make sure to go to your Calendar app and tap on "Calendars" at the bottom in the middle of the screen. Then check the calendar which you want to add events to.
If this does not help, go to Settings > iCloud and make sure that the Calendar sync option is set to ON.
Finally, restart the iPhone by holding the HOME button for several seconds and turning the device off/on.

ICal calendar list is empty and all events are gone

My iCal calendar list shows up empty and all my calendar events are gone as well. I read posts with a similar issue where the list of calendars disappeared yet the events remained. In this case, everything is missing.
I tried deleting the ical plist file but it did not help.
Has anyone else seen this?

i deleted everything under
~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook
and started over to fix it

I have bought a Sandisk 8gb memory stick but can't import from iphoto onto it...help???

No I haven't formatted it, but don't really know how to either? I am a bit of a newbie at this and thought i just had to buy any memory stick and it would work. can you suggest how to format it for FAT32 ( I don't know what this is either ) as I will be using the memory stick for windows also at a later date.
Thanks for your reply

Can't import from LR 3 to PSE 10

Installed Photoshop Elements 10 and can't import from LR 3 for external editing. Any suggestions? I've already tried deleting the LR and PSE .plist files.

So basically I uninstalled Photoshop Elements 10 trial version. I uninstalled LR4 upgrade version. After reading about all the on line grief that people have been having with LR4, why go there? Sounds like more hype with a wopping side order of hooey. Did the online text conversation with Adobe support person prior to logging on to this forum and his only suggestion was call tech support Monday. Uninstalled and reinstalled LR 3.6. Uninstalled and reinstalled PS CS3. Everything works perfectly like it did before. Why or why did I waste all my time with supposedly compatible upgrades? First time I've really been disappointed with Adobe. Hope it's the last.

Events are gone, can't import from Finder.
