One computer lost calendar events

Since the Mobileme update On my other 2 computers I figured out how to quit and reopen iCal to make the events show up, but on the Mac Mini, I keep getting the error message:
*The server responded with an error.*
*The server did not recognize your user name or password for account “[email protected]” Make sure you enter them correctly.*
Is it because of the "mac.com" to "me.com" switch?

Emmett,
What happens if you go to iCal>Preferences...>Accounts, delete the CalDav account listed and create a new account?
Try different combinations. I use [email protected]

Lost calendar events from pc and hand held

I am searching for anyone who has any other ideas to help me find my lost info. I have spoken to tech support and 1 other person on the forum, all have been very helpful, but I have not been able to fix yet and figured I would also post my question for all to see to see if anyone has anyother ideas. I am not very computer litterate but am desperate to hopefully get back some of my info. I have the Palm Zire 72. I have the program loaded in my pc at work and open it everyday for the last 3-4 years. When I opened it up on my pc on Thurs I noticed all of my calendar apts, notes were gone except for some recurring things. I also keep track of my sons schedule under his user name, but all of his info was intact. My contacts were also fine. I grabbed my hand held and did a sinc, I got the error have have seen others have gotten about the memory being full and it erased all the info from the calendar on my hand held also. Needless to say I freaked. I called cust sve, they had me change the .bak file to .dat and .old, all of that. It did not put hardly anything back on the pc.
I have only done 1 sinc, the one that lost it all from the handheld. When I look on the hand held under space, it shows like I have over 4,000 recs on the calender, but I dont see them. Could it be stored somewhere else on the handheld or is it all lost and I should just give up?
I am going to tey the fix download I was told about, but my boos looked for me and says there is nothing in my datebook file on my pc. I dont understand how the information would disappear, where it would go, and why it would erase it from my palm when I did a sinc. And only for my user name?
In the info of the palm it shows 4000 records, but on the actual calendar they dont show. Does it store it somewhere where I can at least view them and write it all down?
Any miracle workers out there???
My pc at work is using windows and I have the version Palm 4.1
Thanks again to those who have tried to help me up to now, I am just pulling at strings now, hoping to see if anything else can be done. Maybe it is hiding on my palm somewhere

Thanks - initially the calendar seemed to be totally empty. I then did as you suggest and discovered the events prior to 2013. It is almost as if there was an incomplete synch and then it synched again and took the incomplete version as the correct version - loosing all 2013 events and some of the events prior to 2013!

Lost calendar events....

I just tried to sync my ical on my iPad with my iPhone and lost all my events! Is there a way to retrieve those events?

Do you currently use Outlook on your PC for calendar events? If so and you wanted to sync your iPhone's calendar with Outlook's calendar, why would you select Calendars for replace info on your iPhone? If this didn't replace your iPhone's calendar events with your Outlook calendar events, this indicates you are not currently using Outlook for calendar events.
Do you have Outlook 2003 or 2007?
If you haven't synced your iPhone with iTunes again since this happened, do not sync your iPhone again. Try restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup.
If this restores the calendar events and contact info on your iPhone and it should, if you have Outlook 2003 or 2007, before syncing contacts and calendar events with Outlook, enter one unique contact and one calendar event in Outlook. Make these up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt when syncing this data with Outlook, which you want to select.

Lost calendar events after sync

Q: how do i recover my approx 900 calendar events from time capsule into my calendar on macbook without copy and paste 900 of them into their respective date on my now empty calendar?
appreciate help

I can't get my iPhone 3GS to sync calendars with either iCal or Outlook. Everything I entered into my iPhone calendar is GONE. The data I previously entered into and synced from my iPhone is still in my Outlook calendar, which used to sync seamlessly, but I can't get iCal to import the Outlook calendar, either (my assumption being that the iPhone would be more apt to sync to an Apple device more than a Microsoft application). The only calendar events that sync from my Mac Pro to my iPhone are the few that are in iCal. Office 2011 for Mac just had a big update, too - I wonder if there are multiple culprits here.

Synching 2 iPods with one computer (lost library)

I have a classic iPod with about 55 Gb of music that I've been using with my computer for a couple years. Recently I purchased a Nano. After synching the Nano with the same computer I find that my iTunes library has been "trimmed" to contain only what is on the Nano. So I've lost about 45 Gb of material.
The iPod Classic, however, still has the entire 55 Gb original library. How can I restore what's on the iPod Classic to my iTunes library?
Thanks in advance,
Dylana

what's the point of synching? Everytime I synched it erased what was on my ipod and put what was in my library in my ipod. Seems kinda pointless. There's now way I'm gonna have 8000+ songs in my Itunes library.

Lost all events on calendar

I accidentally deleted my iCloud calendar. I am able to restore from my iCloud back up but then a few seconds later, it syncs it back to the deleted version. Any advice?

Re: Lost calendar events on iPhone but they are still on Mac
Your instructions: "If the calendar on your iMac is correct you can replace the calendar on your phone with the calendar on your Mac using iTunes. To do this, connect your phone to iTunes, click on the name of your phone on the left side andgo to the Info tab to the right. Here, confirm that you have checked Sync Calendars. Then, further down under Advanced Replace Information on this iPhone, check Calendars. Click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone. This will transfer you iMac calendar to your iPhone. When finished, eject your iPhone and confirm that your calendar is restored."
I tried following your instructions (above). It appeared to be syncing, but nothing on calendar appeared. However, when I made an entry to my calendar for today, and clicked "Done", all of the events for this month pop up. However, when I go back one month, there is nothing-all days appear empty. But, if I click on an event that shows on the bottom of the page for that day, open it, and go back, rest of calendar events for that month show. Wish there was a way I could get it all done so I don't have to go back month by month and restore. Don't know why this happened or how to prevent it in the future.
Your 'fix' was very helpful. If you have any ideas how to totally restore, I would appreciate it. Thank you.

Calendar event updates without sync

Can iPhone be set up to receive changes in one's Outlook calendar events without plugging the phone into one's desktop computer in the same way that iPhone gets mail messages? Most of the current Mobile Windows phones and I believe all Blackberrys do this. If not, is anyone aware of why not and when Apple may fix this?

This is called over the air syncing (OTA) for short and the iPhone does not support this.
I believe this would involve Apple licensing ActiveSync from Microsoft with no way of knowing if Apple has any plans to do so.

After syncing and updating my iphone my iCalendar on my computer lost most of my information. Including wiping out an entire calendar group. When trying to readd the calendar group it won't let me add events to my calendar under that category.

After syncing and updating my iphone my iCalendar on my computer lost most of my information. Including wiping out an entire calendar group. When trying to readd the calendar group it won't let me add events to my calendar under that category. A message pops up that says: "You can't add events or to do items to a calendar group. Select an individual calendar in the calendar list, then create your events or to do items." Any help here would be greatly appreciated! I would like to either retrieve the old information or find a way to add the category back in to start over. Thanks in advance!

Our home network has multiple devices connected by iCloud. Having problem with Calendar. On one iMac, all the events are duplicated. How can I correct that problem? Under the Calendar accounts, I had my Apple id listed and also just iCloud.

Our home network has multiple devices connected by iCloud: 2 iMacs, 2 iPhone 4s, 1 MacPro Laptop, and 1 iPad 2. When using Calendar, all the events were
duplicated on my husbands iMac. On his computer, under Calendar accounts, I had included iCloud and also my iCloud ID. I thought that because I had two accounts listed that were connected to iCloud, that might be the cause of the duplication. When I deleted ithe calendars from one of the accounts, it resulted
in deleting all of the events on all of our network devices!
I have since entered some new events into Calendar from my iMac and from my iPhone. These appear correctly on all devices except my husband's iMac where they are again all duplicated.
I have two questions: 1) How can I eliminate the duplicated events on my husband's computer and 2) How do I retrieve the old wiped out Calendar events from
Time Capsule. I don't know how to find Calendar in the Time Capsule. If I find the Calendar information in Time Capsule, how do I transfer it to my current Calendars?
I was obtaining phone help from one of the Apple techs at Apple Support, but our call was disconnected part way through. Didn't know how to reconnect with the tech.
Thanks for any help.

In setting up ICloud on my new Iphone 4s, I lost most of my calendar events in my Outlook 7 calendar in my Vista PC. I used to have MobileMe but in the set-up process was told to turn that off, which I did but now most of my calendar events have disappeared after syncing with ICloud. How can I get my missing calendar events back? They are still on my 3Gs Iphone which I have not yet updated to IOS5.
Thanks for any help.

Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

Overwrote Library from one computer to another - items lost?

I wanted to make sure my library on my laptop was up to date with my desktop, and couldn't really find an easy way to do this. So, I connected the two with a firewire cable, then copied the whole iTunes Music folder over to the laptop. Normally, I make all my iTunes Store purchases on one computer, but I did buy a couple TV shows on my laptop. I was hoping, like in iPhoto, when you import photos, it would ignore the duplicates, and only copy over the new stuff - not the case.
So, this brings up a few questions: by writing over that whole folder, did I delete the purchased TV shows that were only on my laptop? If so, is there any easy way to recover them - is there a history of purchased items that would recognize that I paid for it and download it again? Is there any easier way to update only the songs that are new without having to compare the two folders to find where there are differences? That could be an especially difficult task.
If there isn't a way, I'd like to make a strong feature request to do so - much like the way you can sync contacts and calendars, you should be able to do the same with songs on the up to 5 computers you can authorize.
G5 Desktop Mac OS X (10.4.8) Transferring to MacBook Pro

Hi Keith,
What you have done is a folder copy, which is really different than an importing process like the one that iPhoto can perform.
When you had perform the folder copy within the Finder, it should have said; "A folder named iTunes Music folder already exist, would you like to replace it?". By accepting that, you have replace the previous folder on your laptop; that means you lost everything that was inside to the profit of the new folder you were copying.
To my knowledge, there is no process to recover lost files through iTunes Music Store but I may be wrong on this. But, you should know that the backup feature Apple have had to iTunes 7 does allow a very simple process for backing up your purchased music. See:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iTunesMac/7.0/en/702x.html
For your last question, here is the answer. If you want to keep music files on two computers, you should keep seperates libraries. Library files are located within the iTunes music files and keep track of each and every songs imported by iTunes. With this library files, iTunes will allow importation like the one your mention using in iPhoto.
So, do the following if you want to import iTunes stuff; go in iTunes preferences in the advanced tab. Make sure the options "Keep iTunes Music Folder organized" and "Copy files to iTunes Music Folder when adding to library" are checked. Then, next time you want to import files or folders; simply drag them in the iTunes library window. iTunes will perform the importation as you mention you would like.
hope this help.

"Fix" for Calendar Events displaying one day early

I posted a question about this a couple of weeks ago, but can't find my original post. No way to search by user name, so I gave up looking for it after 10 or so pages. Because there are several others who have posted about the same problem, I decided to start a new discussion describing the fix that worked for me, with help from Apple Tech Support.
Background of my problem: New iPhone 4S, set up as "new phone" -- calendar events synced via MobileMe without any problems. Or so I thought. Discovered a few days later that any "All Day" event was shown on the day prior to the actual event -- US Holidays and Birthdays in particular. Events with specific start/end times were displaying on the correct day.
Checked these forums and was unable to find a solution, so I made an appointment for the following week with Tech Support to have someone call me. Fred first had me try resetting the phone. Didn't fix it.
Note: Somewhere in our troubleshooting, he had me turn off the Birthday and US Holiday calendars on both the phone and iCal on my computer, then turn them back on and do a sync. This did not correct the event dates. If I remember correctly (I wasn't taking notes), this was before changing any settings in iTunes and didn't fix the problem. However... it *might* have played a part in the final fix, so if the following steps don't fix it for you, try adding in the off/on for the calendars before changing the iTunes sync settings.
What finally worked :
Changing a setting in iTunes to overwrite the Calendar on my iPhone and doing a Sync (bypassing MobileMe entirely). Here's how to do it.
In iTunes, go to the "Info" tab and scroll down to the Advanced section. There are 5 checkboxes there and selecting one or more will overwrite the corresponding items on the iPhone during the next sync only. He had me check Calendar, then perform a Sync.
That worked! For US Holidays, but most of the birthdays were still one day off, except ones I'd entered manually in iCal. All of the misplaced birthdays are published by dates I've entered for contacts in Address Book on my Mac.
I went back to iTunes and checked Birthdays in the Advanced area and performed another sync. That overwrote the Birthday calendar on the phone and now all of my Birthdays and US Holidays are showing on the correct days.
Would have been quicker if I had checked Birthdays at the same time as US Holidays, so when you follow the steps, check both Birthdays and Holidays to save yourself some time.
Hope this helps all of you who are having the same problem I was.

All of my dates are out by one day in ical (and address book). I can change them manually (best advice I could get from Apple), but it keeps happening to me. Any help appreciated, I have 10.8.6; macbook pro, iphone 4s and am frustrated. This seems to be a common problem but I can't find a fix.
In the post above advice is to go to itunes, "info tab", Advanced...but I don't see an "info tab" -
Thanks for any help!
Joan
