Why does ical delete my past events when all settings indicate that it should not?

All of the boxes, about deleting past events, in ical preferences are unchecked, so I can't figure out why ical deletes my past events. Could it be because of a setting on either my iphone or ipad causing this to happen?

I had the same problem a few weeks ago and called apple support. The solution is as follows:
Most apple users have multiple devices using icloud such as an iPdad, iPhone, and other computers. In my case, I had two computers, two iPads, and one iPhone. After speaking to apple support, I realized that one of my ipad's setting were set to delete events older then 2 weeks. In short, if you are expeirienceing problems with ical deleteing events, you better check all your devices. If just one of them is set wrong in your preferences, you will lose past events. Even check computers you gave to your cildren or other members of the family. You will probably find out that the settings on one of these machines is causing your problems.

Why does my iCal delete all events older than a year? Is this a synch issue? I'm running Snow Leopard.

ICal deleted all my events before a certain date on it's own

I couldn't tell you when this happened, but just noticed it today. I went back to check on a prior event detail in my iCal and realized EVERYTHING from all calendars before October 11th has been deleted completely. Is there anyway I can get this info back?... kinda need it for tax purposes..
I do have a time machine backup of the whole computer, but assume I'd lose my new events since that backup if I reverted.
THANK YOU

I am getting more confident that the problem has something to do with a background synchronization process. If I launch either Entourage or iSync, iCal launches also automatically. Perhaps there is a sync preference somewhere that got fouled up?
Can anyone verify that launching Entourage or iSync also triggers iCal to launch on its own?

Ical deleted all my past events

I am using iMac, iPhone4s, iPad, iPod - yesterday, all of my past events on iCal, across all devices, were deleted. I am not currently using Time Machine on my iMac, and I need to get these events back - I use them at the end of each month for billing purposes. I did not alter my syncing options on any device or on iCloud -- the events have been there since I started using iCloud, now suddenly, they are all gone (everything prior to yesterday's date). Any help in recovering these items would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time!

About your only option would be to try to recover it from your iCloud backup. There's a user tip here on how to recover contacts from an iCloud backup: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841. Just substitute calendar for contacts and the process would be the same. The key for this being successful is to disconnect your router from the internet (step 4), allowing you to turn off calendar syncing with iCloud and keep the calendar on your iPhone before it is overwritten by the iCloud calendar.
If you have any other calendars on your Mac be sure to back them up before trying this using File>Export>Export.

Application iCal deleted - Impossible to download iCal on my MacBook

Hi,
I accidentally deleted the application iCal from my MacBook, and now it is impossible to download it again!
I've been on the apple website and the only iCal available to download is iCal 1.5.5 but this version does not work because it is not compatible with OS X 10.4 or later which is my case!
Can someone help me or give me a link where I can download iCal like before?
Thanks a lot

Hi,
You should have iCal on the OSX installer disk.
See this Macworld article that discusses how to install it from there:
http://www.macworld.com/article/132243/2008/02/pacifist.html
You'll probably then need to run the OSX Combo updater to get it to the current version for your OS.
Best wishes

What does this have to do with the iPhone?

Why does ical automatically delete information on calendar after eight months or so? Why doesn't data which has been inserted on calendar remain on the relevant dated calendar? (Apart from actually saving or backing up calendar).

How are your settings in iCal preferences set?

Ical - deleted events prevent from syncing with missing sync

When I try to sync ical with my windows mobile 5.0 running Motorola Q via Missing Sync, I always encounter an error message that one of my ical-events prevents Missing Sync from an error-free sync.
This message comes up when I start Missing Sync: "iCal is reporting synchronization errors. One or more calendar events may not have synchronized properly from iCal. Errors may prevent this application from completing a successful synchronization."
The Missing Sync Protocoll rerfers to an event which I did already delete. So here's the question: how do I really get rid of a ical event which I have already deleted?

Same here. After the update to 10.5 I have succesfully done one sync between my Treo and iCal using MissingSync. Now iCal gives an error, see below. What is the workaround? Downgrading to 10.4.x? Or get an iCal 2 somewhere and run that?
I really want to get my ToDo and Calendar data from my Treo before I go from my Treo 650 to an iPhone. Any workaround is welcome.

Sync phone with iCal deletes old events in iCal

Whenever I use iSync to sync my mobil phone old events in iCal are deleted. This never used to happen, I need the old events for work. Can anyone help?

I also upgraded to the latest version of Blackberry Desktop Manager for Mac v 1.0.6 (Build 16).
I synchronized my calendar and EVERYTHING from iCal was deleted. Fortunately, my Blackberry Calendar is intact. Despite this annoyance, this is still a major improvement over the first time I installed the desktop (sarcasm intended).
I also tried creating an event on iCal and synchronized. This new event sychronized with my Blackberry. When I open the event the Send Using entry is the same email address that I used for all my other entries on my Blackberry.
So basically, my Blackberry Events don't sync to my iCal, but my iCal events sync with my Blackberry.
<RANT> It is very baffling why RIM hasn't been able to solve these problems for the past 3 years. I'm still happier using Parallels with Microsoft Outlook (it hurts to say that) than using this unreliable product. It's things like these that prevent me from using my Mac Calendar and Address Book. The proposition value for switching to an iPhone is looking better every day.</RANT>

ICal deleting my events?

I created my Uni. timetable on iCal. As soon as I closed it, all the events I created were gone. Now I find that every time I create a random event, and close the app, iCal will delete my events.
This is getting to me... It took me hours to do my Uni. timetable for the whole year... And then all gone with no explanation!
Does anyone know what is going on?

I am having a similar problem...
Except Ical seems to delete random events from my calendar.
For example, I KNOW that I entered each and every one of my daughter's soccer games onto my calendar yet now they are all gone.
Or I know that I entered a doctor's appointment and now it seems to have disappeared.
I use MobileMe and have an iPod Touch and I am wondering if it's a syncing issue!?!
Makes me worry about what else has magically disappeared!!!
Or if I do a spotlight search for an iCal event it doesn't come up with any results yet I see the events listed on my calendar with those exact same words in the title???
What is going on???

Help! iCal deleting events!

Help please!
iCal is deleting events off our business calendar. Everything before 60 days ago has been wiped
1) Is there anything that can be done to retrieve?
2) Is there anything that can be done to ensure this stops?
Please note:
- All computers and devices that sync with these calendars have been checked and are NOT set to delete past events - including all iCal calendars and Blackberry settings.

To respond to redsteven1, everything on iCal and Blackberry preferences are set to keep events forever. This was the first thing I checked. Also, I checked preferences on my mobile me account and those settings are the same. Technically, and on the face of it, there should be no reason why any old events would delete. Clearly there is some kind of bug in the software or syncing process. There are no settings on iSync that should affect this either. I checked that too. At first I thought this may just be a Blackberry problem but from my research on these and other forums it appears that the problem isn't limited to Blackberry users.

ICal deletes dates typed in the Notes field... help!

I have the new Lion iCal and I want to type dates into the Notes field and type in the Dates of the event so that I can see the specific dates quickly... iCal auto creates the event for the duration of the dates, but deletes the numbers I've typed. Help.
It seems that there would be a way to remove this preference.
I travel a lot and sync via the iCloud with my phone and really need the ability to glance at an event and know the duration of day's I'll be in a city/town.
I used to be able to type these and have them remain.
Now the system is "overly helpful" by creating an event for the duration I type in, but it removes the dates I type in the field and won't let me retype them in...
Any suggestions?
Is there a preference/view that I can switch off???
All help greatly appreciated.

Hello Teddy and wellcome to the group!
If you want to change fonts or other things then you might need to use the PrePrint method. What I normally do is select PrePrint from the "Show" section in the Script Editor (If you do not have it go to the toolbar at the top, Windows, and select Script Editor). After you select PrePrint you can now either type the name of the subform and field you want to change (or you can put your cursor in the Scripting Dialog box, hold CTRL and then select the field with your mouse) and then type in the JS to change the font. it is something like TextField1.fillcolor = "255, 255, 255"; (that changes the background fill to white). You can also replace fillcolor with font or border to change the color of the font or the border. I put a link to an Adobe website that goes over JS color changes below. You just need to add a PrePrint method for each field that you wish to remove the necessary highlighting on. Then once the user either hits a Print button that you have on the form or uses CTRL+P to print the form it will remove any highlighting.
Now On the Text Field not printing itself that I am not sure what you are asking for. Are you asking for the caption not to print or for there not to be a box around the data that is entered? If you do not want to have a box surround the text field that is in the Object section of the field (see image below). You just need to select None if you just want the text. If you want to change that with JS I put another link below that has the code to change the border color to white and the user cannot see it. If you do not want the caption to print the only method is to delete the caption from the text field and replace it with static text that can be hidden, but I am assuming that is not what you are talking about (correct me if I am wrong though).
