IMPRT "events" are empty after sync

when I synced my iPad 3rd generation with my iMac recently - the first time since purchasing the iPad 3rdG - a SECOND mystery annoyance cropped up (see below for link to the 1st ongoing annoyance).
Syncing my Photos, I select "Selected" events to sync.
Those events are just dandy.
However, many of the "events" named ###IMPRT show on the iPad in the Events area, but they're completely empty.
I can't delete them from the iPad.
HOW do I clean things up? This is aggravating.

I've resynced my iPad with my computer, hoping that maybe these phantom, empty IMPRT "events" would disappear in the process, but no.
When I open Photos on my iPad and go to Events, among the IMPRT events folders, are dozens of empty folders, each labeled with a number followed by IMPRT or with a date.
I can't delete them.
I don't even care any more about WHY this is happening (I gave up trying to understand iCloud and Apple) I just want to know WHAT CAN I DO? I would like to clean things up...the fact that Apple allows users so little control over things like this drives me crazy.
Please help.

Losing events on iCal after syncing

Hello.
I'm having some really frustrating problems with my iCal events. I keep losing them after syncing my iPhone to iCal on my iMac. If I put a date into my iPhone and later sync it to my computer, sometimes it works. However, after other subsequent syncs, I end up losing quite a few events. I have no idea why. I have my settings in iTunes to automatically sync when I plug in my iPhone. Aren't I supposed to be able to add events via my iPhone and have them sync properly to my computer and vice versa? Is something wrong with my settings? Please help! Thank you!

I am having similar problems and no one at Apple seems to be able to help. When my calendars sync, they change the time of the appts. It is driving me nuts as I rely on my calendar for work appts. It doesn't seem to matter where I enter the appt, Iphone or on Mac, they are still changed. I've missed appts because of this.

C:\Windows and C:\Windows\System32 folders are empty after Deployment

I hope you won't find me crazy because of this question, but I have the weirdest thing !@#
We deploy Windows 7 x86 SP1 in our organization.
Our image is a WIM file that is deployed with SCCM 2012 OSD and we are "Baremetaling" PCs. nothing is being migrated or saved from the current PCs
we configured the driver packages for 4 different hardware types (All of them Lenovo) and all are pilots were successful.
we just started not long ago to deploy the image in the production.
the problem is:
All of the PCs work just fine after deployment. after a day or 2 , randomly, some of the PCs boot automatically to recover mode and fail on the startup repair action.
When I browsed the local disk I was amazed to see the folder C:\Windows contains only the C:\windows\System32 folder AND BOTH OF THEM ARE EMPTY!!
in this mode I can't even debug logs, event viewer, DaRT.... everything is lost!
it happens so far on 3 of 4 of the different hardware models, so we know it's not hardware related issued or driver.
I know it is very foggy information but I thought maybe someone else has ever ran into this issue and what was the cause
our guess is an update \ software on the base image that causes the damage, though it's a very similar damage for any opinion
any help will be appreciated! thanks

Hi Tamir Levy,
How can you check the C disk, we need to know the C: is a System disk not a 100M System Reserved partition in this situation.
I also would like to confirm, if you can run system restore from System Recovery boot prompt. If no, what the error message you get.
In additoin, I would like to suggest you try the following steps to check the issue:
1. Run Check Disk from a Command Line to Check for and fix Disk Errors
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ee872425.aspx
2. I suspect it may be related to malware. You may try to make a full scan with an AntiVirus Scanner like Microsoft Security Essentials.
Microsoft Security Essentials
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security-essentials-download
3. Use another system image for a test.
Meanwhile, you can collect smsts.log file and detailed progress of OSD TS to get more details to check which problem you are having.
I would like suggest to you post the question on Windows System Center Configuration Manager Forum for further help.

Hope it helps.

Outlook 2007 calendar events font changes after syncing with iTunes

I use Outlook 2007 on a Windows XP PC. I have no problems syncing Outlook calendar events with my iPhone 4 other than for one highly annoying detail. My default font in Outlook is set to Times New Roman 12 pt. Whenever I sync, all of my calendar events' text in Outlook is changed from Times New Roman 12 pt. to Calibri 11 pt., and sometimes more recently, to Arial 10 pt.
It's driving me nuts as I find Calibri to be hideous-looking. In addition to the font change, all other special formatting such as bold and italics are removed.
Has anyone experienced this before or know what's going on? Many thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Has no one experienced this issue? I can't understand why this happening. It's been almost two months since I posted this.
To reiterate: After syncing with iTunes (the newest version), all custom text formatting in Outlook 2007 calendar events are changed to Calibri 11 point, and sometimes more recently, to Arial 10 point. My default font is set to Times New Roman 12 point.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

IPhoto events are empty now

I just bought a new iMac and imported about 5,000 pictures into iPhoto. They were there fine but now they are no longer showing. The events are all still showing but are empty now. What could have happened and is there anyway to find my pictures? Some albums are still showing with pictures in them from an earlier import but not the ones from my most recent import.

You need to start a new thread as your problem is nothing the same as the thread you threadjacked
It also is not helpful to threadjack multiple threads - simpy start a new thread, supply the information needed to help you (what you have (version), what is happening and what recently changed)

All my iCal events are duplicated after migrating to iCloud

I upgraded my Mac to 10.7.2 at first and migrate my iCal to iCloud.
And then I upgraded my iPhone to iOS 5.
After that I found all my iCal events are duplicated.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks~~
I don't have MobileMe.

When you sign back in to iCloud on the Mac the iCloud calendars should be there if they are also on the web-page iCloud calendar. Did you
Restarting the iCloud merges On My Mac with iCloud calendars (deleting On My Mac calendars in the process). This is why it is so vital to have .ics backups.
I think you must be missing a step somewhere. Here's what to do:
- Create .ics backups on iCal using Export
- Open iCal>Preferences>Accounts>iCloud and delete the iCloud account
- Open System Preferences>iCloud uncheck Calendars and Sign Out
- Import into iCal your .ics calendars, they will be listed as On My Mac on the iCal Calendars list
- Sign back into iCloud, check Calendars, Agree to Merge despite the warning that calendars will be removed from the Mac
- Check the web based iCloud calendar and see if the calendars are there.
- Check iCal under Calendars and be sure that the iCloud calendars are checked in the list (or they will not display).
If this doesn't work you should make an appointment with an Apple Genius.

In iMovie, all my files are empty after upgrade. How can I find them?

I went into iMovie today to look at some old videos and notice mostly all my files are empty. I'm not sure how long its been this way, but it seems like it happened over the summer sometime. I only have files from June to the present. Where can I find them?
I tried to read up on others with similar problems and tried some of the suggestions, but no luck.

In the Event mode you an sort the events this way:
In the Photos mode (without Event titles displayed) the photos can be sorted this way:
For organizing your photos this post by Terence Devlin is has some excellent suggestions: Better way to organize my images?: Apple Support Communities.

New events are empty, should contain photos

This morning, I downloaded a bunch of vacation photos to iPhoto. I created several events (which are showing in iPhoto) and I even used some of the photos this morning in a printed document. Since then, my husband signed onto the mac mini as a guest...and then I agreed to the iTunes update this morning. Now, the events are showing in my library but no photos are included in any of them. And of course I deleted the photos from my cameras. I have iPhoto 11 and a mac mini running Mac OS X version 10.7.5. I'm not well versed in computer language, but I'm really hoping to figure out what the heck happened to my photos. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Make a temporary, backup copy of your library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

All music in my library are missing after sync.

All music in my library are missing after synch, but it seems that its still in the phone cause I checked memory usage and it doesn't add up. And when I connect it to itunes and checked the memory usage bar in the bottom, it seems that my music was categorized in "Others". I'm using iPhone 5s with the latest OS.

This has just happened to me, I've had songs in Music on my phone for years and suddenly, and randomly, they're greyed out and unplayable. This applies to some playlists and not others, to songs I've played on my phone even in the last week.
Damned infuriating and I can't yet find a resolution - Apple, what have you done this time!

Imovie '11 mixed up my events and some events are empty in iMOvie.

iMovie '11 arranges my movies by date and they are all mixed up now. For example, 2012 December has events 120708 (a july 2012 event) and 120711, 120812. Also when I open over half the events, all the clips are missing.
1. I have all movies on external hard drive
2. I have just added all photos (221 GB) to the same 2TB hard drive
3. Movie events are missing when I try to look at them in iMovie but if I click open my hard drive (like in finder) I can see the clips in each movie event there.
Thanks for your input,
Lara

CanyonMan's comments worked in another line.
rename the iEvent and it will Optomize, the video appears and iMovie reorders them by date.
All I did was change one letter in each event to a capital and it took another look and fixed it.
thanks CanyonMan

HT1386 Why are Notes in Outlook empty after syncing with my iPad Notes?

I have tried syncing my iPad Notes with Outlook, my Gmail account, and my iCloud account thru the USB connection. The iPad notes remain unchanged but no notes can be found anywhere else.

If yes, the fix is with Exchange Server 2013 CU6.

ICal events all deleted after syncing with computer

I synced my iPhone and iMac two days ago, and only this morning realized that ALL my events in my iPhone's iCal are now gone!! I've been keeping track of several important doctor's appointments, my child's school events, personal medical issues, etc and now they're all deleted. After checking, it seems SOME of the events from June were transferred onto the computer's iCal, but then "stopped" there and nothing else was copied. My phone and computer have synced successfully many times, always "sharing" information but never deleting! What's wrong? Can this information be recovered? In some cases, my phone was the only place this information was recorded, so now it's gone. Thanks everyone for your help!!!

Hi there,
I'm having the exact same problem as described above, and I'm a little desperate to get my iCal entries back as well...
Concerning the question of whether I have a backup: I'm actually not sure, maybe you can tell me whether I do? The situation is the following:
I entered a (significant!) number of iCal entries on my iphone directly. The iphone, in turn, is being connected to my MB Pro at home, as well as my PC at work. Podcasts and such are updated from my PC, so I'm guessing that the PC is the primary iTunes linked to the phone. When I connected my iphone to the iTunes on my MB Pro, however, it asked whether I would like to synch as well. As I had a number of iCal entries on my MB Pro that I wanted to also see on my iphone, I agreed. It warned me (like many times before) that this would chance more than 5% of the iCal entries, but it never before had deleted any of them! When I checked again, all my direct iphone iCal-entries had disappeared.
I have Time Machine installed and made a backup of my MB Pro just a few days ago - I'm suspecting though, that if the iphone iCal entries are gone from the iphone, my MB Pro iCal did not remember any of them either, correct?
PLEASE, if someone could help explain this situation, I'd be incredibly grateful! I've never had it happen before that iCal (on either machine) deleted anything...
Many thanks in advance!

Bookmarks are lost after Sync

I was scared when using Sync if all bookmarks will be lost if it will not work sync. Now it finally came to this issue as I have main PC with bookmarks and while Sync was started ALL bookmarks vanished. I think this is not stable and you have changed something on server. These data are years of work and please help me how to bring back from last day ALL bookmarks.

Firefox sync is intended to synchronise between computers, you may therefore have good bookmarks on another machine, is that the case ?
Firefox also tries to backup bookmarks and keep spare restore sets, but''' take great care''' with these as they overwrite whatever you currently have, always make manual backups and keep them somewhere safe, eg the Windows desktop, outside Firefox program and profile paths.
I suggest you backup whatever bookmarks you have now on all machines '''immediately''', (each day you delay may loose a snapshot copy) and then again after each of any restore attempts. It is a good practice in any event to regularly back up bookmarks manually, they are after all as you say often years of work.
See
* [[backing up and restoring bookmarks]]
* [[lost bookmarks]]
You are using Firefox 4 per the system info aside, that is not supported, it would be better to use Firefox 3.6 or Firefox 8

Projects and events are empty!

Before I call support, maybe someone can help. I created a project and finished it, all locally (no external drives involved). The next morning, when I opened FCPX, the event and project NAMES were there, but clicking on them yielded NOTHING. There was no evidence of any of my imported media, either, although my hard drive still showed 10GB less space, so it was still on there somewhere. After uninstalling and reinstalling FCPX and mounting some random libraries from the "Final Cut Backups" folder, the projects and timelines reappeared, but ALL the clips were missing, and attempts to relink them led nowhere. So I RE-IMPORTED all the footage in a new library/event, and when I dragged the event into the library where the "blank" project lived, all the clips mysteriously re-populated and all was right again. This morning, opened up FCPX and the SAME THING happened. Only this time, I can't get any project/timeline to load from ANY library (including every single "backup" library). So I'm panicking that even if I re-import all the footage for a third time, I won't have a project for the clips to "find" and I'll have to start over. WHAT IS GOING ON???
Thanks!
Bill

UPDATE: The event has returned but it is still empty. I opened the Console and the following error is repeated hundreds of times starting at the time of the original crash:
