Lost ical data on ipod touch during sync

Using mac book with snow leopard version 10.6.8.  I closed my mobile me account after it expired.  I am not using the cloud.  When I tried to sync my 2nd gen ipod touch, I lost all my ical data on my touch.  Before deleting mobile me, I exported all my calendar data from mobileme cals and imported all data into new calendars "on my mac".  The only way I could set up new calendars was by setting up a new group.  Don't know if this has anything to do with the problem.  Everything else on touch syncs.  I tried resetting the touch.  I also reset sync history in isync.  Nothing has worked so far.  How can I get my ical data to sync to my touch?

The "Time Zone Support" in settings on the iPod said Cupertino, USA.
I've turned that off now and it seems to have fixed the problem.
NB: There is a note in the settings that says "When off, events will display according to the time zone of your current location."
Thanks for you help!

  • Why does my ical on my ipod touch not sync with my ical on my desktop if I put in an event on the ipod calendar?

    Why does my ical on my ipod touch not sync with my ical on my desktop imac ical?
    It will if I put it in on my desktop though.
    Please help,

    Probably because you did not tell the iPod to sync the calendar in iTunes.

  • I recently purchased new Mac Mini with Lion installed. Now I can't get iTunes to sync iCal from my iPod Touch (3rd gen) to my Mini.

    I recently purchased a new Mac Mini with Lion installed. I downloaded the latest version of iTunes. Now I can't get iTunes to sync iCal from my iPod Touch (3rd gen) to my Mini. Everything else syncs great, and iCal syncs from my Mini to my Touch. My Touch has the latest iOS installed. I have tried rebooting my Touch, removing the sync calendars option from iTunes>Info and checking it again after applying and closing iTunes, and restarting my Mini. Any help will be appreciated!

  • IPod Touch not syncing w/ iMac iCal

    First post! I sync my iPod Touch with my iMac thru the cable. Recently my iPod touch stopped syncing w/ my iMac. for example: the calendar events on the iMac are not transferred to the iPod. Also on the iPod when I create an event, it will only give me the choice of either Calendar [imap_.Mac]:Mail To Do or Calendar, not all my different calendars like before. I don’t know what happened to change this. I restored the iPod but nothing changed. Perhaps it was a software update?
    I went to the genius bar and was told that the next time I synced the iPod, under the “Info” page to go to “Advanced”, Replace information on the iPod and click the boxes that I needed to replace. This did nothing. I then put an event on the iPod and synced it with the computer, the event was not transferred to the computer.
    Is there a setting that needs to be changed?

    Greetings,
    Have you restored the iPod? http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/assistant/ipodtouch/

  • Lost my notes on iPod Touch!!! Please help me!

    hi all, i created a lot of notes on my iPod Touch during the night while i was on the train. i just got home and connected my iPod Touch to my Mac Mini and the notes i created during the night are now all missing. it looks like the most recent notes i created are now gone and only the notes i created a few days ago are there. i'm accessing the iPod Touch notes via 'mail' as this is the only way i know how. i just unplugged my iPod Touch and tried to access the notes i created during the night on it, but it looks like the notes are at the same point as the mac mini's. so my iPod Touch notes are identical to the mac mini's notes.
    i believe when i plugged in the iPod Touch to my mac the mac synced up the notes i had earlier so it wiped the most recent iPod Touch notes out. i remember seeing a dialogue about syncing a few days ago and i believe this started the issue. it seems like the mac mini now supersedes the notes i made on my iPod Touch.
    does anyone know i can get them back?
    thanks for any help!
    man, this ***** big time.
    does anyone know how i can make the iPod Touch the 'leading device' so the mac mini won't wipe the notes out again?
    i can't see how i can get the notes back. 

    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

  • I just purchased a new ipod touch so now I have two. I do not want the second ipod touch to sync the same as the old ipod touch - 2 people with 2 different music preferences. How do I keep them separate.

    I just purchased a new ipod touch so now I have two. I do not want the second ipod touch to sync the same as the old ipod touch - 2 people with 2 different music preferences. How do I keep them separate.

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • Will contacts deleted on iPod Touch truly sync and get deleted in AB?

    I have many, probably 100, duplicates of contacts in my Address Book and thus on my iPod Touch, which I would like to delete on the iPod Touch and then sync and have them also delete on my MacBook Pro.  Is it possible to do this?  Or will the computer try to 'save' or 'keep' these contacts? (I want to delete them from the Touch and sync it to the computer - rather than vice versa - because I am without my MB Pro for a month and would like to handle this now.)
    The Touch manual says "contacts are synced both ways between your computer and iPod Touch. New entries or changes made on iPod Touch are synced to your computer."
    This is not entirely clear because the computer could decide that these are not "changes" but deletion on the Touch and might just keep them in the OS 10 Address Book application.  Another unsuccessful possibility could be that the MB Pro syncs them back onto the iPod Touch which it might consider as doing it's side of the syncing job, which would defeat the purpose of what I'm trying to do. 
    Any clear definite answers to this so I won't have to do this process of deleting duplicate entries twice should they not delete on the MB Pro?
    Thanks. 

    Instead of deleting the duplicates on your touch, delete them on your Mac. After that, use the feature to replace all contact info on the ipod during the next sync in iTunes. You can find this option in the info pane, advanced section with your ipod connected.

  • An unknown error occurred -54 in itunes this happened after i'd bought new iPod touch and synced it to my iTunes can you not have two iPods on iTunes account??

    Please help i bought a new ipod touch and synced it to my itunes account so i had both ipod touch's on it and now i have an error flashing at me and i don't know what to do??

    == Error -54 ==
    From an OS9 reference, error -54 is a software lock on a file or a permissions error. (Some of the old codes still apply to OSX although there is no formal list of OSX error codes.)
    First, try simply restarting your computer.

  • Now that I moved my itunes to a new computer why will my iphone and ipod touch not sync?

    I just switched my itunes to my new laptop from my desktop (which no longer works).  Everything seemed to be ok after I updated to the newest version of itunes.  Now I cannot get my iphone (3G) and my ipod touch to sync at all.  In fact when I plugged in my ipod touch it erased everything I had on there.  I know these are older devices but I had no problems with syncing previously so why now?  Even the backups will not work. 

    You can only sync to one computer/iTunes library. If you switch iTunes will erase the iPod and replaces the media with what is in the iTunes library of the new computer.
    You should have done this:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    You said "Even the backups will not work.". What happens when you try to restore from backup?
