ICal lost data

After syncing my PDA with iCal and .Mac a couple of weeks ago I lost data. Is there a trail of backups for iCal somewhere out of the ordinary? TIA -Kevin

I finally solved the problem I was having, although it did not involve a simple solution. Apparently there was/were corrupt files related to the syncronization and restore backup. I ended up having to restore the iphone as a "New iPhone" (It did not work by restoring from the backup). Once settings in the new iphone were set (after restoration as a new iphone), I was able to sync the information that was in my computer with the "new" iPhone. I lost text messages and app settings (since those are not in the sync options), but was able to recover all my contacts, calendar info, emails, music, videos, and applications. I restored the iPhone through itunes (connect iPhone to comp, open itunes, and in the info tab of the device press restore). After the software restoration, you need to set your wifi connection (this is optional), and enter your apple ID (no worries if you don't want to connect through iCloud, it will ask later if you want to do it or not). The iphone will ask to connect to computer and either restore as a new iphone or from a backup. I tried MANY times to restore from backup, but the iphone just went blank and did not work. Restoring as a "new" iPhone and then sync with itunes did work. Good luck with this one - it took me a long time to figure it out.

  • Lost data on my Mac after it got reset but my iPhone is still synced to the old version of my Mac?

    So, during an awful visit to the Apple store in which the "genius" completely reset my Macbook Pro (10.8.5) because it decided to go "turtle mode" for no reason whatsoever, I lost all my data and files on it. After putting whatever I had backed up back on the Macbook, I put some new things on my iTunes and tried syncing the Mac's iTunes and my iPhone 5 ios7's iTunes. However my iPhone was synced to the older version of my Mac before it crashed and got wiped out. I got this message:
    The iPhone “___” is synced with another iTunes library on “___”. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?
    An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library.
    Is there any way I can get my lost data back onto my laptop with my iPhone? Or if there isn't and I sync the new version of my Mac with the iPhone, will my iPhone lose any data to match my Mac?
    thanks

    i think the easiest is to chroot into your installation, and then do a pacman -S kernel26

    My current situation: I have soooo many texts on my iphone and I haven't deleted many because I need the information contained in them for future reference and for legal purposes.  I would really like to find a means and way to save them other than on the phone itself. I've done searches for various apps yet I'm not finding what I think I would need.  It appears Apple does not sync the texts between the iphone and my MacBook Pro.
    Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

    If all your files are missing
    You may have logged in as a different user, such as Guest. Open the Users & Groups pane in System Preferences. Your name should be at the top of the user list, under Current User. See also this support article.   
    If files are missing from one folder
    Change the Finder view mode; for example, from icon view to list view, or vice versa.

    I don't think you're on iOS 5, I think you're using iOS 6.  That's the latest version.
    Unless you've used iCloud to back up your documents, you won't be able to restore them.  And for future reference, you don't have to uninstall Pages to update your iPad anymore.  Sorry about this.

    Why don't you talk to apple and find out if backup exists? That conversation with apple will stop your guessing.

  • Restoring the lost data.

    Hi All,
    We have two Planning Applications created in EPMA architecture.
    Accidentally user has deleted the critical forecast data from one of the application by running the Business rule which deletes the data. The data which got delete was critical one and now user need to restore it back.
    We do have latest windows file system back up taken on both Physical Hyperion Application & Essbase Servers therefore we can restore the necessary files from backup in order to restore the lost data with the help of our Storage team who handles the back ups.
    Could you please advice on how do we go ahead for restoring the lost data from backed up files and which files we may need to restore from the back up.
    This is an extremely urgent & critical issue we are facing hence your valuable advice is much needed as soon as possible.
    Thanks in advance !

    I have tried this Maxl couple of times in case of Invalid Block Header issues. Doesn't seem to resolve for me.
    If it is a case of invalid block header :
    How to restore a database:
    1. Stop the application/database and delete the dbname.ind file.
    2. Clear non input level data using Hyperion Application Manager, DATABASE -> CLEAR DATA -> NON-INPUT BLOCKS. Then perform a full calculation of the database either using CALC ALL or if required, specific calc scripts. This may not work however as it depends on where the IBH lies in the data. If this still returns the error during the calculation then proceed to step 3.
    3. Stop the application and delete the following files from your database.
    This removes all the data from the database.
    <dbname>.ind
    ess000#.ind
    ess000#.pag
    <dbname>.tct
    <dbname>.esm
    To get the data back:
    a. Do a full calc from your database from an input level export
    or
    b. Restore from an existing backup. If this backup does contain an IBH, then keep restoring previous backups and checking.
    Hope this helps!

  • Sql server data base retored to an earlier date (lost data)

    halo,
    I have found that someone or something restored my mssql database to an earlier date and lost a lot of data as a result
    I have no back up for the lost data.
    is there a way to roll back database server so I can recover the lost data?
    I will be grateful for any suggestion you give me
    thank you...

    If backup was restored with REPLACE option or Overwrite option(in GUI) you as such cannot rollback the restore process.
    Do you have any backup which is taken after you made changes to your data, or any backup which would include the data you want. If you have you can restore from that backup otherwise there is no solution.
    Is this database mirrored/Logshipped/ replicated anywhere ?

  • Is there a way to retrieve lost data

    I tried spotlight and it seems some of my iMovie files are gone. I don't have a backup. This was a result of a computer crash. Is there any third party software that I could use?

    leroystreet
    1. To recover lost data try using File Salvage
    2. Are you sure the Spotlight index wasn't damaged in the crash? Try re-indexing: In the Spotlight PreferencePane, drag the HD to the Privacy Pane, leave it there for a few moments, then drag it out again. Allow it time to re-index.

  • Lost data in Aperture - NOT recoverable through Time Machine!

    I recently accidentally deleted photos in Aperture. Unfortunately, even though I backup regularly with Time Machine, I have come to find that Photos in Aperture libraries are non-recoverable.
    Can anyone please help? Apple has no help topics for lost data.
    Thanks in advance!

    The photos in the library are recoverable. But you will likely have to restore the library and then navigate through the library to get the photos. You can get to them by right clicking the library and choosing "Show Package Contents" and then navigating the the project and again right clicking to do "show package contents" and then access the RAW files. It will be a bit tedious.
    It's a lot easier if you're using referenced masters.
