I just lost all recent updates to my iCal from the last days. Can this possibly happen ??? What can I do to restore iCal with the most recent updates?

Hello All, yesterday afternoon I just lost all recent updates to my iCal from the last days. How can this possibly happen ??? It may have occured after I chose the Refresh function after I had problems searching my iCal for a particular event. I think my iPhone was also not properly synched in the morning but I didn't pay it much attention and opened iCal on my MacBookAir instead.
How can I prevent this from happening again?
What can I do to restore iCal with the most recent updates?

Random glitch.  It doesn't matter; if you didn't backup the data, then you can't recover the data.
In the future, for any 'important' data, back up that data regularly.  Forward the 'important' text messages to your email.  Trasnfer your photos & videos to your computer, etcetera.

  • When I open my mail app it shows that I have unread mail, so I click mark all read and carry on my business. About 2 seconds later all the mail I just marked comes back unread. This keeps happening, what can I do?

    Everytime I get a new email, I open the mail app and mark it as read. Recently, whenever I receive emails I mark them all read yet 2 seconds later they are all marked unread. I again mark them all read and the same thing happens. I now have 95 emails from 2 weeks ago that I clearly marked read but they won't stay read. What can I do?

    Well, unless you made a backup BEFORE you hit the restore button, your data is gone.

  • I have just lost all my data in a software update

    I have just lost all of the data on my iPhone! In a software update! I do not have iCloud or a back up on my laptop! What do i do? Please help me!!!!

    Sorry...
    Set up iCloud - no reason not to considering what you've just been through.   It's easy, and it's free.

    What did you update with what?  Are we talking a computer?  A device like an iPhone?  You updated iTunes?  You updated the operating system?
    If you updated the iOS on a device, I believe it warns you it will erase the device and you should make a backup first.  Restore from the backup.
    iPhoto is an application pretty much separate from iTunes.  There is an iPhoto forum if you are having problems with that application.

  • Just lost all music!

    I have just lost all the music on my i-pod I got the message 'songs on the ipod cannot be updated because all of the playlists selected for syncing no longer exist'
    Help!!

    OK so if you have it set to Automatically Update Specific Playlists Only, are those playlists you have selected in that same screen still in iTunes?
    In other words, you are telling iTunes that you want only the stuff in the playlists you have picked to be put on the iPod. If you later delete one or all of those playlists in iTunes, then plug in your iPod, it won't find the playlists it is supposed to sync with and would give you that error you see.

  • Help! i just lost all my voicemail messages! how can i retrieve them?!

    Help! i just lost all my voicemail messages! how can i retrieve them???

    I also experienced loss of important archived voicemails on my Iphone on two occasions within the last 12 mos:
    1. after upgrading my Iphone 4S to an Iphone 5 using Itunes backup and then erasing my Iphone 4s. I lost all my voicemails older than 90 days (ATT is my carrier). I was able to recover the old voicemails by restoring my Iphone 4s from my Itunes backup and holding onto that device for reference.
    2. again, six mos later after restoring a new Iphone 5 using a recent ITunes backup after water damage to my first Iphone 5. Nobody in my local Apple store or on Apple phone support, including a "senior techniciaan" had any useful knowledge to assist me with this frustrating issue. Ultimately, I spent many hours researching this myself. Apparently, there is a bug in the Iphone 5 OS when restoring from ITunes. I don't know if this problem also occurs after restoring from an ICloud backup. However, I found that Iphone voicemails are available for a limited period 30-90 days through your phone carrier ie. ATT, Verizon, etc but more importantly, ALL voicemails are archived on an ITUNES backup regardless of age assuming you didn't delete them off your IPhone before last backing up your device. So, if you lost or damaged your IPhone but have an ITunes backup, all you need is an ITunes extractor, unfortunately not available through APPLE. Apple reps are not authorized to discuss non-apple issued software even if they're aware. There are several ITunes extractors available for music, photos, SMS files etc but most don't also have the capability of opening the embedded voicemails. Happily, using this software, I successfully extracted from my ITunes backup file ALL my voicemails old and current, using www.backuptrans.com/itunes-backup-extractor.html (Mac and Windows versions available). A life-saver!

  • Ipod touch just lost all wi-fi capabilities. full new ipod restore did nothing to change it, can't retype passcodes etc because it does not even find any wireless network to join. thoughts?

    ipod touch just lost all wi-fi capabilities. full restore as new ipod did nothing to change it. I cannot enter pass codes etc because there are no wi-fi networks found to join, despite other apple devices finding my wireless just fine, all sitting at same desk (and the airplane mode is off). thoughts?

    Is this your problem?
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    This is frequently a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I just lost all my contacts on the ipod2 ...how do I get them back? They just disappeared while I was typing in a new contact.

    I just lost all my contacts on the ipod2 ...how do I get them back? They just disappeared while I was typing in a new contact.  Help!!

    joephilipose,
    If the contacts are still in Address Book on your computer, but just not on the phone, you can tell iTunes to force replace the contacts on your phone with those from your computer. You can do this by going into the Info tab when your iPhone is connected, and checking the Contacts box under the Advanced section at the bottom of the page.
    You may also want to backup your Address Book information as well. It's a good idea to make periodic backups of your contact and calendar information in case information accidentally gets deleted or changed. You can find out how to backup your Address Book data here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AddressBook/4.0/en/ad961.html
    To backup your iCal information, follow the steps in this article:

    Hope this helps,

    Something in your backup may be corrupt. Try wiping it and setting it up as a new device, then sync your apps, data and media back to it from iTunes. DO NOT resotre from your backup. If the problem is contained in the backup, it will bring it right back again if you restore.

  • I am in tears! I have just lost all my music in my itunes and they are not located on my pc either as it's a new pc. Help PLEASE!

    Did it used to be on that computer ? Your music library will only be where you put it, buying a new computer and installing iTunes on it will not put your library on it.
    If you go in Edit > Preferences in your iTunes and on the Store tab tick the 'show iTunes in the Cloud purchases' tickbox then your iTunes purchased music might show in the Music part of your library with cloud icons against them for redownloading - if you've moved countries since buying the music or if it's no longer in the store then it won't show for redownloading. And check to see if you've hidden any of your purchases : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
    For your own music (e.g. copied from CDs) and what you can't redownload then do you still have your old computer with it on, or do you have a backup of your downloads/library, or is it on your phone ? If on your phone then there are some programs listed halfway down this page which should be able to copy it back : Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    Or to copy it from a different computer : How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support.

    If you have no backups, and data has been lost, then it's lost forever. The rest of your data will inevitably follow if you don't back up.
