Lost all iCal data when installing isync

I tried a trial .mac account and lost all of my iCal info.. I know this happened through the sycronize process... Is there any way to revert this disaster?

I have just had the same arroying experience. I had mobileme and iCal on laptop working fine. Could see calendars in both. Then got iPhone 3G and it synch'ed the calendars to it fine. Went and stupidly upgraded to 2.0.1 and low and behold come to use iCal on G4 laptop (leoprd 10.5.4) and have no calendars. Look on mobile me - no calandars....eeek. Look at iPhone - still there - sighs with relief - assumes can restore to iCal on mac - wrong. Doesn't work. Odd. So read a few posts on here and someone recommended going into settings and turning off calendar syching in mobileme account. BAD move. Gave me the option of turning off calendars when I did that - turning off mind...not removing...so I said OK (surely they would say if this was going to delete them)....then turned back on....silly me. Boom! the iPhone synched with mobileme and replaced the good calendars with no calendars. So I've managed to remove all cals from all places - quite an achievement. Thanks Apple.
Any ideas how I go about restoring the calendars?

    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 didn't back up and have lost all my data when updating to iOS 7 :(

    I didn't back up and have lost all my data when updating to iOS 7 I have an iphone 4s.  Is there any way at all i can recover the data?! Help pls!!!

    Actually, if you have never backed up your iPhone with iTunes or iCloud manually, there are still possibilities that iTunes or iCloud has backed up your iPhone automatically: every time you sync the iPhone with iTunes, iTunes will back up your iPhone automatically; if your iCloud backup was enabled, every time your iPhone is connected with Wifi and a power source with screen-locked, iCloud will create a backup automatically. If you find the backups, but the backups are not up to date, and you don’t want to lose the data generated after the backups, you can extract the lost data from the backups using the iPhone backup extractor.
    In addition, you can also try to use the iPhone data recovery software to scan and recover the data on your iPhone directly even if you have no backups of your iPhone.

  • Lost all my data when tried to restore windows from image backup. What to do now(for free)?

    Dear Friends,
    My Server: HP DL380-G7, OS: Win Server2008 (original).
    10 days ago when one of my web application is not working I tried to restore my file in old state. So I apply "Windows image backup" services. After completing the process I found that I can't boot. And later when I installed a new OS I discover
    all my data from dives gone even from my attached USB hard drive.
    HELP ME!!!!! Its my greatest mistake in my 7 years career.
    What to DO!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi,
    Above all, whether the USB disk is also included in your system state backup? If so, the restore will also restore the USB disk back to the status when creating that backup.
    As data is gone from the USB disk, please make sure there is no any new file wrote onto that disk. Then you can try some third party data recovery tool which could help get the files back. Generally such kind of applications are not free but you can still
    search for any application with free version or trail version. 
    If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected]

  • I lost all my data after installing ApplCare Protection Plan

    I just recently adopted my first IMac. Everything was going along fine until I installed the AppleCare Protection Plan and I lost all my emails, addresses, pictures. I tried uninstalling but nothing. Is there a way to retrieve my lost data? Thanks.

    An Apple Care protection plan is purchasing an extended warranty that extends the Mac's 1 year warranty to 3 years. There is nothing to install. It involves registering your Mac's serial number on line with Apple along with the Apple Care registration code. However, Tech Tool Deluxe is a 3rd party app that comes free with Apple Care. Could that be what you tried to install, Tech Tool Deluxe?
    Explain how you went about installing it please?

  • Lost all my data while installing os4, how to restore?

    iTunes performed a backup for about 12 hours when I tried to install the new os4. After the installation was completed, it asked me to type the password for the backup to be restored. What password? I hadn't entered any password for the backup. So I went to the apps tabs and restored the apps. Then I tried to restore again and BIG SURPRISE, the 12 hour backup was no more there. There was only a backup of the new empty iPhone.
    I even looked at C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup but there are only backups of the new one and not the 12 hour one.
    WHERE CAN I FIND MY DATA????

    yeah... did all that... latest version is iTunes, backup before installing os4... didn't interrupt anything. OS updated juuuuust fine. Data, did I actually have data on my iPod? Apparently not. I only thought I'd been entering things for the past many months.
    All my apps were there from the start after the upgrade, but zero data for anything. **** thing can't even find my own wireless network. Restore from backup only offered contacts and a couple other normal iTunes things - made no mention of actual app data and restored nothing else. What's the point of the backup if all your app data can simply go away?
    Anybody have any bright ideas past starting to enter data again? Is there a way to actually back up app data or is that just oh well area...

  • I lost all my data when updating to iOS 7.0.6

    Hi, umm i was updating my phone to the recent software the ios7.0.6 is it? well anyways i havent backed up my phone for almost a year now, and when i updated it, it told me to restore it, and i dont want to do that but I had no choice because i cant use my phone until i connected to the itunes to 'Restore', is there any ways that i can change it back to the previous one? i really have important things in there and really need it .
    Last time i lost my data, i was so devastated, now im experiencing it again... can anyone help me? Apple team can you help me? or any computer geniuses, im no computer whizz so please help me, Im now desperate that i had to join this Apple support community....

    Fool me once, shame on you.
    Fool me twice, shame on me.
    In other words, after your first experience with data loss, there is no logical reason you should have been neglecting to backup your data regularly.  iCloud backups are free and can be set to backup automatically.  iTunes backups are also free.
    I'm sorry you lost your data, but this falls solely and squarely on your shoulders.

  • Lost all calendar data when upgrading from 10.4.11 to 10.6.1

    So I bought the "MacOS X Boxed Set" for SNow Leopard, and installed it over my former 10.4.11 install on the main drive of my Intel-based iMac. Everything seems to have made the transition just fine -- my desktop icons, my emails, my dock, etc. Except for iCal. I open it and it's blank! Why? How do I restore all the recurring events and such that were in iCal previously?

    I have the same problem migrating from a G4 iMac running 10.4 to an intel iMac running 10.6. Cannot even import calendar files exported from the old machine. Help!

  • Problem with iphoto 09 (lost all faces/locat) when installing Snow leopard

    Hi,
    Before updating to the new snow leopard I did a back up using time machine so I am safe with regards to all photos I have. I first use to use Aperture 2 but found it not useful and when Iphoto 09 came I bought it and imported all photos from Aperture library to iphoto.
    I then spent days and days updating the face recognition and also updated the locations on all photos, I have about 10000 photos so it took a while..Then I made a back up with everything and updated to the new snow leopard. Now all my faces and locations are gone. The photos are still in the old aperture library but I really do not want to spend another 3 days or so updating all the faces again.
    Also one small issue, I am not able to update my aperture to version 2.1.4 as when I click on aperture it says you have version 2.1 and it is not compatible with snow leopard. tried to download the 2.1.4 but that also does not allow me to update...
    Any idea on what to do??

    What do you see in the iPhoto Window?
    tried to download the 2.1.4 but that also does not allow me to update...
    Where is Aperture? All the Apple apps need to be where the installer puts them. In the case of Aperture that's loose in the Applications Folder, not in a sub-folder and not anywhere else.

  • I lost all my data after clicking F11

    Hi everybody!
    I have lost all my data when I clicked F11 and  factory recovery was executed.
    Is there any way to return back the data? They are very important. 
    They were all my data, very important including all data from university - for more than 4 years. 
    Please help me. I need an urgent help. The operating system is Windows Vista Business Edition - it is licensed.
    Best Regards,
    Manuel

    Hi Manuel,
    Unfortunately I  have bad news for you.
    F11 invokes the Recovery Manager, where you have a number of options. The following two options are under the I need help immediately section.
    Microsoft System Restore is a nondestructive process. If you make a mistake you can roll your system back to a restore point on a date that works for you.
    System recovery is, on the other hand, a destructive process which deletes all data. Before the process begins it does warn you.  
    You may be able to recover your data by contracting a data recovery company. It will be quite expensive and without a guarantee of success.
    Did you not have your university data backed up on an external drive?

  • I cant seem to download and install the latest iphone software update. I have tried since the release and have been unsuccessful on more than 7 occasions and lost all the data on the process. Anyone have that problem an how do I fix this problem?

    I cant seem to download and install the latest iphone software update. I have tried since the release and have been unsuccessful on more than 7 occasions and lost all the data on the process. Anyone have that problem an how do I fix this problem?

    Hi
    Thanks but I have tried doing the above - when I said 7 times I was modest, its more like 15 times.
    And I am referring to the 5.1 software update. I dont have wifi so I guess I will have to try that seeing that my husband also has the same problem - he has also tried downloading several times. It always times out en says that the connection is lost but yet there are always an internet connection and a decent signal once it stopped. Think it said error 32052 or something!
    I am disappointed because the update includes inprovement on the battery life - did you guys notice any difference?

    Hi Steve,
    If this is dot mac or Mobile me you can still use IMAP eMail in the iCloud.
    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    MAKE A NEW ACCOUNT - DO NOT TRY TO ALTER YOUR EXISTING ACCOUNT.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
        •    Server name: imap.mail.me.com
        •    SSL Required: Yes
        •    Port: 993
        •    Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
        •    Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
        •    Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
        •    SSL Required: Yes
        •    Port: 587
        •    SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
        •    Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
        •    Password: Your iCloud password
    Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria:  8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers.  If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message.  Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
    Thanks to dpepper...
