Lost calendar and contacts on iPad

Hello
New to this and first post.
Since mailbox got moved from Yahoo to BT my email address got changed from Openworld to Btinernet. I was updating my iPad to try and get my mail and I have now lost my calendar and contacts.
Any suggestions. I cannot find anything on the website.

Is this any help?

See this bit,
"After we move you to BT Mail, your iOS device settings need to be updated so that they will sync with BT Mail. Look out for an email from us to say you've been moved to BT Mail, as it'll give you a link to instructions on how to set up your calendar and contact syncing for BT Mail."
There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

Syncing Calendar and Contacts between iPad and iMac

I receive invites to meeting on multiple email accounts (I often have accounts on client site). All invites (to date) are *.ics which as I understand is not supported by Mac (ughhh).
In any case, I use entourage 2008 on my iMac, I have the latest version of iTunes and the lovely tether that came with my iPad. I also have signed up for a trial of MobileMe.
All emails end up in Entourage in the iMac where they are automatically placed in the calendar application in Entourage. So if I look at this calendar or my BlackBerry I am up to date!! Awesome.
Now I have enable calendar and contact sharing in Entourage which I thought would automatically populate iCal (not so). (if anyone know of a great application for ics please share!!)
As for the MobileMe - I have not figured out how this puppy works yet - I was again hoping that this would automatically update - i.e. a push system.
When I plug the iPad in to the iMac iTunes opens up (lots of i's - starting to feel narcissistic) - I then ask it to sync my calendar and contacts - at this point it is hit and miss ... it seemed to capture some of the entries one time ... then the second time I did it it captured only the first ones that were already on the iPad and duplicated them - now I have two of each appointment. Same thing happened with music but less important at this point.
I checked on MobileMe and it also only has the few appointment from the first sync and no new ones ...
I was hoping someone could provide a "made for dummies" step by step process on how to effectively and automatically as possible sync my iPad (I realize it is not a computer but I have to rationalize the 1000 bucks I spent or the boss (my wife) will not be happy.
If you could start the process with how to delete all appointments/contacts on my iPad so I can start fresh that would be great!!
Please do not assume I a actually know too much in the process (as you can see I am a bit of a newbie to syncing)
Great Appreciation in Advance!!!!

So I have begun the step by step:
Notes as I went (I wish we could do screen captures in here ...)
+*Set up sync from Entourage to iCal and Address Book Set up sync with iTunes or MobileMe, not both.*+
When I go into sync in entourage it gives me the option to "Synchronize contact with iTunes and MobileMe" (not one or the other just both - I have it checked)
*+First, on the iMac, run iSync, choose it's preferences, and reset sync services. That cleans up the sync database on the iMac+*
Reset Sync Service under the Advanced section is "greyed out" and as such I can not activate it? Running V3.02 --- OK turned off Entourage and iSync - when I restarted iSYnc it allowed me to reset.
+*In Entourage, open Preferences, go to Sync services, and choose to sync the Calendar and Contacts.*+
It prompts me at this point to Combine, Delete entourage, or Delete iCal and MobileMe (I chose Combine for lack of a better choice)
+*If you want to use MobileMe, then switch off syncing in iTunes. Open the MobileMe preference pane, and on the sync tab, hit the advanced button and reset again. When asked, choose to overwrite MM with the information on the iMac*+
I could not find a place in iTunes to turn off syncing? The only thing there was syncing og iPod but it was greyed out.
Let's try ....
OK - contacts seem good.
The caledar is stillhit and miss. I noticed I had created an invite to myself in the calendar - sort of a reminder to do something but still created an invite - this one does not show up and few others that are series not showing up?
I am closer however and will see how this works ...
Apple - it would sure be nice if you would just get with the worked on the *.ics files --- this is a huge issue on both the business and consumer side ...

Desktop v 6.2 Lost Calendar and Contact functions, Handheld Tungsten E2 still has the data and functions

May 12, 2011 I decided to upgrade Desktop 6.1 to 6.2 on my home Win 7 Desktop, the download and installation appeared to work correctly. Since I use the handheld daily (for everything) and backup at work and home every 2-3 days. I did not notice that the Calendar and Contact functions on my home desktop had disappeared for a few days. Normally at home I use the Desktop to make adjustments and additions to my data in other applications. I did not realize that Calendar and Contacts had dropped off the home PC, until I needed to update my calendar from notes at home..
I have tried to download the software and repair the installation. Still failed.
So after downloading ver 4.1.4, I uninstalled the 6.2 version. I was unable to find the installation program for the prior 6.1. Version 4.1.4, lacks what I had for my home desktop.
Post relates to: Tungsten E2

I use the Tungsten E2 & had upgraded to 6.2 (Access) OS. I had all filed backed up to another folder on the PD. I lost the DATE, ADDRESS, MEMOS & TO DO categories on the Palm Desktop. I tried to re-install 6.2 (the categories were still lost); I uninstalled 6.2 & installed 4.1 (but could not import files from my backed-up files).
The solution was to uninstall 4.1 (I used Windows uninstall) & to re-install 6.2. The missing categories were still missing. Right click on the Palm Desktop shortcut, click on Properties, click on Compatibility, put a check mark in the Administrator Box, click on Apply & click on OK. The missing categories returned including the data that was in them.

My iMac calendar and contacts no longer sync on iPhone and iPad?

I updated iTunes on my iMac a few months ago. Since then my calendar and my contacts on the iMac have not been syncing on my iPhone and my iPad. My memory says there used to be an "Info" button at the top of the iTunes interface when I had my iPhone or iPad connected to the iMac for syncing. Do not see that button any more? Have been looking and looking for some new way to sync my calendar and my contacts, but have not found anything. This is one of several disappointments with the new iTunes. How do I get my iMac, iPhone, iPad calendars and contacts to sync??
It's been a real pain to have to enter calendar and contact information into all three! My iMac runs on Maverick, my iTunes is 11.1.3, and the iPhone and iPad run on iOS 7.0.4

Hello Bev76,
Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like contacts and calendars on your iPad are not being synced to your iPhone 5, but the data syncs from iPhone to iPad.
If you are using iCloud for your contacts and calendars, start with the troubleshooting steps in the "iOS" or "Troubleshooting on iOS devices" sections of these articles:
Get help using iCloud Contacts - Apple Support
iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar - Apple Support
All the best,
Jeremy

I want to upgrade my phone to the 4 or 4s. My macs are still running Tiger. If I bought an iPad 2, could I sync everything to it from the 4 without using a Mac at all, and then be able to iCloud my calendar and contacts, etc?

You don't need a computer to activate a new iOS device anymore. Anything with iOS 5 can be activated over a WiFi network (or cellular if that applies).

I would like to change my iPad to use the same iTunes ID as my husband's so we can share our music, apps, etc. Will I be able to have my own calendar and contacts?

I have an imac, and ipad, and now an iphone. I also have my own itunes account. My husband has an itunes account as well for his ipad. Since he has spent more money on apps, music, etc, I'd like to switch my devices to use his account, even if it means losing the few apps or songs that I bought on my account. If I do this, will I still be able to have my own calendar and contacts?

No need to switch. You can use both his apps, music, etc. and yours.

Erasing calendar and contact info on transferred original iPad

I've transferred my original iPad to my wife's computer. But she's now stuck with my calender and contacts info.
As I read the iPad manual, the reset option labeled "Erase all contents and settings" would do the trick. She could then sync with her own calendar and computer. But does it erase other things, well besides the email account information which is not a problem? For instance, does it erase apps?
Thanks in advance for any help.
John Kendrick

Is there any way to simply erase the calendar and contact info without erasing the apps?

They can't sync if the old Lotus wasn't designed to sync with the iOS.

New iPad Calendar app and E-mail, Calendar and Contacts setting crashes

The Calendar app has just started to crash. I cannot open the app at all, not even after forced quit. Tried to remove the calendar in the Settings app, but noticed that the E-mail, Calendar and Contacts section also hangs. What to do? It works fine my iPhone.
Thankful for any help.
Regards
Sam

I agree this is most needed, but also for the iPhone & iPod touch devices. They should also allow changing what day is the start of the week (instead of being stuck with Sunday). iCal actually allows you to have the week view scroll by day, so you are always looking at the next 7 days, versus some dates in the past.

Problem syncing my IPhone 5S to Mac Outlook 2011 calendars and contacts

I have an IPhone 5S running on OS7. While I have read many having same problems, I am still at a lost as to how to sync with Outlook 2011 on my Mac. Previously there was a tab beside summary on ITunes that I could specify my sync preferences. Now, no such tab..
Could someone guide me through the process so that I can again sync my Phone with my Calendars and Contacts on the Mac.
Another issues is that I cant seem to sync the same Calendars and Contacts to ICal and Contacts for Mac.
Thank you
TWmy

Hi Wogified!,
I have an article for you that may help you understand why this message is popping up:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Syncing overview
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12111
You can sync iPod touch, iPhone, and iPad with only one iTunes library at a time. You can sync other iPod models (besides iPod touch) with multiple iTunes libraries by choosing manual syncing.
