My iPhone calendar data got wiped

I think i trashed my iPhone calendar data, and not sure how to get it back.
iphone 4, 5.1.x, using Apple Calendar app on iphone, iCloud backup.
i use gmail as my primary/main email app , but apple calendar. All was fine UNTIL...
i wanted to sync my calendar to GOOGLE calendar so i could see it online on the web/google....
i went to systems settings, edited my entry for google, turned ON the blue switch for calendar.
then it synced and since my google CAL was empty , it appears that it WIPED out my calendar data on my iphone, and since my iphone is syncing with iCloud, it appears that it synced an empty calendar with the cloud.. so now i have NO data in  my calander on google, none on iphone, and none in icloud.
i dont have a TimeMachine backup, and i dont have a backup on my macboook as i primarily use over the air syncing, and thought icloud WAS the backup.
how do i get my data back?
am i correct in thinking this is what trashed it?
anyone able to assist?
Thanks
-Mike

  • IPhone Calendar data nit synching with MobileMe

    Since installing Snow Leopard my iPhone Calendar is not syncing with MobileMe. Contacts, bookmarks, and email all synch fine but not my calendar entries. This means the data is missing on my MPB and Power G5. Anyone else experienced this? Any solutions or do we have to wait for Apple to do something?

    In iTunes, select the iPhone.
    Click the Info tab, scroll down and select what you want to sync.

  • How to over-write iCal data with iPhone calendar data?

    As of tonight, my iPhone 4's calendar will not merge to my iMac.  The Mac with push to the phone, but not the other way around.  I know for a fact that the "correct" calendar is the one on the iPhone (lucky this week I know that!), so I'd like a way to over-write the computer version with the iPhone.
    So, problems to solve:
    (1) Tell me how to reset the sync history in the newest version of iTunes
    OR
    (2) Tell me how to over-write data as described above (and pray it works the next time bi-directionally)
    OR
    (3) Point me to a fix for the original non-sync problem that I haven't discovered yet.
    Your help is GREATLY appreciated as I've spent WAY more time on this than intended already.  1 minute sync --> 4 hour issue.
    Thanks!

  • My iPhone calendar dates get deleted after I synch

    When I synch my iPhone, I periodically discover that the dates for my current month are preserved but those from past months are deleted. However, the dates are preserved on my computer in iCal. I would to be able to save the iCal entries on my iPhone indefinitely. Can anyone tell me if there's a setting I should be changing?

    I found no settings on the iPhone which could make this happen.
    Did you sign in to www.icloud.com and check if you have accidently activated Rules (or Forwarding)?

  • Error while updating software on iphone and it got wiped out, now what?

    I was updating my iphone software through iTunes, and there was an error.  Now my iPhone won't even show a screen, just an image of a USB cable pointing to an iTunes logo.  I rebooted both phone and computer. Nothing.  I uninstalled iTunes and all related software per Apple instructions and reinstalled iTunes.  Reconnected and...Nothing.  Now I am screwed.  I can't even use my phone as a phone let alone anything else.  Good news is I do have everything that was on it backed up -just how do I get my phone to work again?

    What is the error when you try and restore the phone after connecting to iTunes? Use this support document to decide what to do for specific restore errors. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694

  • Iphone data completely wiped off

    I had set a passcode on my Iphone 5, to avoid my kid tampering with the iphone. My complete data got wiped off my iphone recently, probably due to my kid typing in the wrong passcode more than 10 times. When I contacted Apple technical support, I was told that the wipe data option is 'off' by default and Im dead sure that I havent turned it 'on' (as I never knew this option existed before this incident!). Is there anyway I can know when was this option was enabled, so that I can know who may have done this? Im sure my kid would not have turned it on by mistake, as you need to enter the passcode to get into this option.

    Thanks for your response. On that particular day, when i checked my phone, I was directed to setup a new profile. and all the data, including contacts, photos and videos were erased. I assume that my kid may have typed in the wrong passcode more than ten times, which had triggered the erasing of data.
    This is a personal phone and nobody else has access to the phone except me.
    The other thing that intrigues me is that the 'Erase Data' option can be accessed only once we enter the Passcode Lock screen after keying in the right passcode. There is no other person who knew the passcode, hence there is no other way that somebody else would have turned the 'Erase Data' on. And assuming the 'Erase data' is 'off' by default, how did my data get erased?

  • How to sync an iPhone calendar to an iPad?

    I've got an iPhone with a calendar full of events. Don't need a desktop calendar since the iPhone is always with me and does a great job.
    Got an iPad and can't get the calendar on the iPhone to sync with iPad anyway.

    For me the ideal solution I'm in search of bypasses the requirement of centralizing my calendar on some desktop PC app, or Google Calendars, or Mobile Me (although I would pick Google Calendars if I had to choose since I already use Gmail).
    I just want to have the "bulit-in" iOS calendar app data sync between my iPhone and iPad (without paying for MobileMe). This really should be a no-brainer with iTunes being the hub but I am stuck.
    Even if I did make a move to centralize around say Google Calendars to act as the sync hub, how would I export my iPhone calendar data to import to Google Calendars? What would be the steps?
    Regarding the restore question: iTunes does a backup with every daily iPhone sync I do. I had to restore the iPhone in 2009 but was able to restore from a backup file so I didn't loose any calendar data or any data for that matter (eg, Notes, SMS messages, etc.)

  • IPhone Calendars Missing

    Today I woke up and noticed that my iPhone calendars were missing. I'm hoping I can find a way to get them back.
    Background:
    I have a laptop (MacBook Pro - 10.6.4), an iPad, and iPhone (iOS v4.0) and my email accounts, contacts, calendars and bookmarks are synchronized between all the devices.
    No updates to the iOS happened in the last three days.
    Launching iCal on the iPhone shows the network activity icon (appears at the top of the iPhone next to the wifi icon).
    Symptom:
    Tapping on iCal from the iPhone shows a blank calendar. The correct day is selected, however no events are displayed. There is no option to select or filter calendars (option is typically available when there are multiple calendars to choose from.)
    My iPhone seems to be the only device in the group that doesn't appear to be working. Oddly enough, all other content is syncing fine on the iPhone, laptop and iPad. Changes in contacts, bookmarks and everything else seem to work as expected. Calendar events, however do not show up on the iPhone but do show up on the Laptop and iPad as expected.
    The iPhone does not show any of the available calendars. In fact, the device doesn't allow me to create a new event because there are no available calendars to choose from, and the phone requires this information.
    What I've tried:
    - Restarted iPhone
    - Launch iCal on iPhone and wait (hoping calendar info is loading)
    - Verified that the information is correct and available on me.com - it is - calendar data is not lost.
    - Verified the settings on my iPhone (calendar data set to push along with contacts, bookmarks, etc)
    - I've attempted to delete and reset the MobileMe account responsible for the push data on the iPhone. Interestingly I receive a warning that there are calendars on the phone that will be deleted.
    - I've attempted to reset Sync History on the Laptop (primary data source)
    - I've restored the iPhone with a complete reinstall and new sync after the restore (data still missing)
    - Turned off syncing on iPhone. Restarted device and turned syncing back on. Receive message giving option to "merge" or "replace" calendars currently on the iPhone (attempted both with no luck).
    My guess:
    If I had to guess, it seems that I have a corrupt calendar file on my iPhone. The trouble is I have no idea how to remove the bad file and replace the existing data. I thought restoring the phone would do this, but it didn't.
    Also, it may be helpful to note that I could not restore from the backup which was conducted just prior to the os restore. I had to do a fresh sync from my laptop to get the contact, bookmark and email data back on the phone.
    Any thoughts on what I could try next?

    Well, I got my calendars synced by going in to settings and telling the phone to manually sync to the computer but that doesn't answer the question of what's wrong and why thinks disappeared or if everything will double up.

  • How to sync iPhone calendar with iCal on Mac?

    When I migrated to iCloud, I lost all iCal data on my computer, but still have it on my iPhone. Any way to force iPhone calendar data onto my Mac? I have tried refreshing the calendar and turning the calendar on and off in my Mac's iCloud preferences.

    Your profile indicates you are running Leopard v10.5.8.
    You mac must be running Lion v10.7.2 in order to enable iCloud on your Mac.  Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices
    If everything is up to date and you've tried turning off Calendars and turned it back on and that didn't work, go to ~/Library/Preferences
    Move the com.apple.systempreferences.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac.

  • Syncing iPhone calendar to brand new MacBook Pro iCal.

    How can I add my iphone calendar data to iCal on my new macbook? I feel like if I do it through iTunes, it will wipe my iphone calendar and I'll be left with nothing.

    You need to do it through iTunes. Copy the iTunes folder from your Music folder of the old Mac to your new Mac. There is an entire forum area devoted to the iPhone here:

  • Had iPad and just added iPhone. iCloud offered to sync my calendars but it wiped out all my data that was on my iPad!  Can I get it back?

    Have ipad2 & just added iphone5. iCloud offered to sync my calendars but it took blank iPhone calendar as default and wiped out my iPad calendar with my "life" on it!  Can I recover the lost info?

    If you backed it up to your computer using iTunes, restoring to the backup should recover it.  (Apple's documentation isn't clear about whether or nott an iCloud backup includes your calendar events but it may.)

  • All data is wiped from my iphone after internet was serverely hacked, hence transfered to my iphone and everyone elses iphones in the house

    Our internet was hacked really bad, whatever virus/ trojan it was, my two housemates & I didnt realise straight away, by then we had synced our iphones to itunes on our computers, it wasnt long before we noticed our iphones acting strange, they would freeze up, bombing out, our computers were worse, it got through the anti-viruses, activated our web cams & mics. Then one of my housemates got a settings message window pop up on his iphone screen saying "I will put it all back if you give me what I want", we freaked, we had no idea what it meant. The other iphones were telling us to sync to itunes.. We sync to itunes again, then about half an hr apart of each other- each of our phones turned themselves off, we turn them on again.... and discovered all data, apps, messages, photo's, everything completely wiped clean- gone. Most of the programs on our computers had been changed, all data on itunes was gone, we just couldnt believe what had happened.
    I never did a back up- I trusted the iphones, I didnt think that i needed to. I had tried again to sync to Itunes after I uninstalled Itunes & reinstalled it again on my main computer but nothing. I thought that I better not try syncing it to my laptop then.
    I have uninstalled most programs in my laptop & tried to clear out any dodgey data i could find. I have left what iphone files that I could find in there, but I cant tell which iphone/ apple data is what nor can I read any of it.
    I have seen on other sites there are programs or tools to try and retrieve data, but I dont trust the internet, I'm not risking being hacked again by downloading from sites I dont know.
    Can someone please PLEASE  advise me some kind of instructions as to how to retrieve my iphone data out of my laptop??
    **I'm wondering if this Apple site will publish this, because I have never found anything on the net where people have had a hack as bad as ours, so it makes me wonder if there are people out there who do talk about bad hacks- if they're story ever gets published or is our hack "1 in a million!".

    Syncing your phone will restore the iTunes content to your phone. I suspect the content has not actually been deleted from your phone, just not visible due to a glitch(it's happened before). Re-syncing will fix things.

  • ICal sycing calendar dates to iPhone

    Hi,
    When I plug the iPhone into the mac via USB and open iTunes, the calendar dates in iCal do not get synced across. I have gone into iCal and looked for a way to send dates to the phone, but without success. Can anoyone help, please? iTunes does send contacts - just not iCal dates.
    Thanks!

    I finally got it fixed with a little help from some related posts online.
    - Delete any files with 'cache' in the name that are in ~/Library/Calendars
    - Launch iSync, go to Preferences, and do Reset Sync History
    - Log out and log back in
    I don't know if it's one or both of the first two items, but it did the trick.

  • Got my Iphone unlocked recently and now when inserted new sim, all the apps got wiped out, tried syncing it again from itunes but still it isnt getting installed. Can someone help?

    Hi,
    Recently I got my Iphone unlocked. Earlier I was using it on ATT n/w. After unlock i am using it in India with a service provider here.
    The problem that I am getting is, the phone was able to pick up the network and am able to make calls and messages. Data plan is still to be activated so cant confirm on that, but all the apps that were there on my phone got wiped out on its own. Since I wasnt sure as to what happend, so I reinstalled the apps today morning. I saw the apps getting installed and then left to get ready for my office. after nearly 30 mins I saw nothing was getting syncronized so disconnected the phone and left for Office. On reaching office when I checked for my usual Apps, I could see only the apple apps and none other available there. Need to know whats the issue and how to resolve it. Please can someone help me on this?

    I can not get to iPhone screen, so no way to get to Settings. That is the problem. When I connect phone to iTunes I get screen asking to insert SIN card. On the phone I'm getting Cinfigure screen asking Launguage , Country or Region, Wi-Fi, ( I can connect to my home wi-fi), and last screen "Activating your iPhone". After two minutes of waiting IM getting message: Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server in temporary unavailable. try connecting to iTunes or try later or contat apple.com/support.
    Like I mention, I went to Bell as well Rogers store and tried to insert active SIM card with no results.
    Yes, my friend unlock the phone to use with Rogers but I don't know where
