ICal won't sync with iTunes

Question

I have setup iCal to and Address Book to sync with my iPod. They are not updating, though. I have done what I need to do in iTunes (to my knowledge) by going to the Contacts Tab and checking sync for both Calendars and Address Book. I have tried All Calendars, as well as manually selecting one of the calendars.
I have also created a new calendar from scratch, put items in it, then tried syncing it also, but it will not sync. When I sync, iTunes says specifically that it is syncing Calendar and Addresses, but nothing shows up on my iPod afterwards.
What steps can I take to determine the problem? Thanks for any help.

Well, the problem is solved. I won't go through the nightmare I had with Apple Support (including convincing the tech support person that iTunes handled this, not iSync). There was a corrupt file which was somehow determined by creating a new user account and trying to sync, which it did. They told me I would have to move everything (it was 20 minutes after closing for them and they did not want to mess with it.) When they said corrupt file, I started looking and ended up deleting the right file which allowed the two to sync together. I wish I could tell you which file, but I primarily deleted the preferences files having to do with the two programs, as well as some Application Support files that I felt safe in deleting. I determined this by making changed to the calendar, then trying to sync, then observing what files showed having been updated at that time.
If you are interest in knowing which files, I can look and see if I can remember. Try syncing under another account and see if that works. If it does, there is likely a file that is messed up.
