Restore my calendar

Restore calendar

You might provide more info. Do you want to perform a restore? From what? icloud or itunes? You tried to do a restore but it didn't work? It worked by didn't restore everything?
You can't just restore a calendar, you have to reset your device and then do a full restore. This assumes you have been making frequent backups to itunes or you set your device to do automatic backups to icloud.

I am trying to restore my calendar from my Time Machine backup. I can get through the process, but at the end I get a message that Calendars cannot be amended as it is required by OS 10. There is no facility to authorise a change. How do I get round this

I just upgraded to the new mobile me calendar and now all my calendar entries on iCal have been erased. As I type this the calendar entries are still on the mobile me and iphone calendars. How do I restore the calendar entries to iCal?

Please always post your System details when you have a query. The upgrade to the new MobileMe calendar produces different results, and different problems, with different versions of OSX.
Snow Leopard: during the upgrade process your iCal calendars should be moved to MobileMe (this can take some time and you have to wait for it to happen). Once done, your iCal reads the calendars from MobileMe so any changes made in either place will be visible immediately. If this has not happened then this Apple Tech Note provides instructions:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3397
Leopard: when the upgrade is completed iCal on Leopard will not be able to see the MobileMe calendars until an additional process is carried out, detailed in this Apple Tech Note:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4330
Tiger: iCal on Tiger cannot read the MobileMe calendars, period. The only workaround is to upgrade to Leopard, or Snow Leopard if possible (Intel Mac required).

How do you restore iCal calendars in Time Machine

I recently updated to iCloud from Mobile Me and when I opened iCal I noticed that the Mobile Me calendars and the iCloud Calendars were the same, so I deleted all my Mobile Me calendars and to my horror realized after reopening iCal that all the caledars were deleted in the iCloud calendar as well.
How do I restore those calendars via Time Machine? I am running OS X Lion and although I have made the terminal change so I can see my user Library folder, within Time Machine it does not show up.
Help!!

Well, I guess they're not really ical backups, per se.
When i went to migrate MobileMe to iCloud, it said "make sure you back up your calendars first" and I almost didn't do it because I figured I have TM if I need it, but decided just to be safe...
so I did file>export>export for each calendar.
Then after the migration seemed to go smoothly, I deleted them.
Then got into this snafu.
Fortunately, was able to TM back to the desktop from right before I erased them.
so I restored them, then imported them one by one, and so far it looks like everything is good. Knock on wood.
It's still frightening to me though that an accidental deletion from the cloud turns into a day of screwing around to restore things!! It shouldn't be that easy to just permanently erase so much important data. I shouldn't have to manually export all my calendars every day if I want a backup...

My calendar information is accurate in iCloud but has disappeared from my iphone. How do I restore my calendar information back onto my iphone?

My calendar information is accurate in iCloud but has disappeared from my iphone. How do I restore my calendar information back onto my iphone?

On your iPhone go to Settings > iCloud.
Turn Calendars off for over the air syncing. If you are provided a prompt to save any calendar events locally on the iPhone, decline.
Wait 5 minutes or so followed by turning Calendars back on for over the air syncing.

How can I restore my calendar from yesterday's version on my Mac?

How can I restore my calendar from yesterday's version on my Mac?

I wasn't syncing it with anything. I had plugged in an upcoming drs appt, apparently something was still open on my calendar when I received a call. Took the call and after I hung up I had my phone face down on my lap in the car. Had intended to go back to the calendar when I reached my destination. When I got there and looked at my calendar, absolutely nothing was on it.

How can I restore my calendars from TimeMachine in Mavericks?

I have lost all my calendars (except birthdays) in messing with icloud. How do I restore my calendars from Time Machine. I don't have an active iCloud account.

Solution;
What fixed it for me... as long as you still have this data on another device, (computer, ipad) I did a true "shut down of iphone" by holding the power and home buttons at the same time, restarted it and went to calender and hit "calendars" and like magic there all back
My Situation:
I had this same problem, i had deleted my "calenders" on my iphone in an effort to consolidate.

How do I restore my calendars from time machine? I'm in iCloud.

I had been getting double entries on my calendar function on my macbook pro. I went into the calendar tab and deleted one of the duplicate calendar sets, one by one. But the resulted in the elmination of both sets of calendars, so it's now all blank. It's also blank on my phone, my ipad, and my imac, as well as on icloud.com.
This happened yesterday and I restored the calendar by hand. What gives? How to fix?
Thanks.

Never mind. I found out how to do it from a previous post. Sorry.

Hi. I upgraded our Ipad2 and we have noticed there are several calendar items missing which were there prior to the upgrade. Can I restore historic calendars from itunes/pc or icloud?

Restore MobileMe calendars from Time Machine

The new MobileMe Calendar and Time Machine don't play nice together. This Apple Tech Note says:
'Important: Do not rely on traditional methods for backing up calendar data, such as exporting the iCal database, Time Machine, MobileMe Backup, or iTunes backups of iOS devices. Any changes to the data in the cloud will be more up-to-date than data in those backups and override a restore done from those backups.'
So if you accidentally delete your calendars, they are deleted on MobileMe: you restore the cached versions from TM, and MobileMe promptly brings them up to date by deleting them again.
However it is possible to restore from Time Machine by following the following steps:
Turn off your internet connection. Make sure that it really is completely off.
Restore from Time Machine. This should restore your calendars to list under your MobileMe username.
Now carry out this process with each calendar:
Select a calendar listed under your MobileMe login name.
From the File menu choose Export...>Export. An .ics file will be saved at your designated destination.
Create a new calendar with the same name as the one you've just exported from, choosing 'On My Mac'.
From the File menu choose Import... Select the .ics file and choose to import it into the calendar you just created (make sure you don't import it into the MobileMe version).
Now your calendars are listed under 'On My Mac' as well as under your MobileMe login name.
Reconnect to the internet. Your MobileMe calendars will disappear as before. Now carry out the following process with each of the 'On My Mac' calendars:
Select your 'On My Mac' calendar. From the File menu choose 'Export...' then 'Export...'; from the sub-menu. This will create an .ics file at the location chosen in the Export dialog.
From the File menu choose 'New Calendar' then your MobileMe login name in the sub menu.
A new calendar called 'Untitled' will appear in your sidebar under your MobileMe login name. Change its name to that of the calendar you exported.
From the File menu choose 'Import...' then 'Import...' from the sub-menu. A navigation pane will open: navigate to and choose your exported .ics file.
iCal will ask you where to import this to. Click the drop-down menu and select the MobileMe version of your calendar (make sure not to choose the 'On My Mac' version). Import.
Your calendar contents will appear in the MobileMe version of the calendar but this may take some time. You need to leave iCal running until the rotating icon at the top of the sidebar disappears.
You can now delete the 'On My Mac' version of the calendar (control-click it in the sidebar list and choose 'Delete').
You should back up your calendars periodically by exporting the .ics files as in step 1 above and keeping them safely.

Kevin,
Can I use Time Machine to go back and restore my old calendars so I can find that data that I lost!
You may be able to find the individual events in Time Machine, but depending upon the number of "Files" in the "Events" folder, they may be difficult to identify.
I don't want to replace the information in my Calendars, only look back at some old ones!
The data will be located in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Calendars folder, which (depending upon the number of calendars) will have corresponding folders with alpha/numeric names for each one of your calendars. Open the alpha/numeric folders and you will find an Info.plist file and an "Events" folder. You can use Text Edit to open the plist file, on your current calendars which will help you to identify/narrow down the correct calendar. The "Events" folder will contain separate event files for each event with icons that display the date of the event. It will help if you know the date of your lost event(s).
Use Time Machine to recover the individual event. If/when you find the event(s) restore to your Desktop, double click the event and import it into iCal.
Also, I did a Backup in iCal. Where are those files stored?
If you did a backup using iCal, and do not remember where you specified for the backup, use Spotlight to identify where the backup file was placed. Use .icbu for the search term.
Good Luck.

Restoring iCal calendars after disk crash

OK, I haven't found this on any discussions I've read so far.
My disk died on my MacBook Pro on Wednesday. It's in the shop. Fortunately I had backed it up on the Saturday before. Now I am temporarily using my iMac. Both are (were) on Leopard.
My question is - what did Apple do to the calendar files!? Through Tiger, calendar files were .ics files, and they corresponded directly to my different calendars by name. When I went to Library/Calendars, some of those were there, but they were ones from long ago. However, there were all these .calendar folders there with an Event folder and a file called info.plist in each of them.
In the Events folders for all these are files named, for example, 00C6C072-2C48-4B99-B3A2-B3241655578A.ics, and these .ics files are the only ones iCal seems to want to import. But when I import them, they are single events, as far as I can tell and the name of the "calendar" in my Calendars list in iCal is, for example, 00C6C072-2C48-4B99-B3A2-B3241655578A. This, of course, isn't at all helpful in trying to restore old calendars - or new ones - by importing them. So, it seems to me that Import is useless in this situation or any other.
Has anyone got any info that can help me understand what they've done here and why (well, no one probably wants to know why), and how I get my calendars back?
Hopefully the tech fixing my MacBook Pro will be able to recover some data from the disk drive, and the old calendars will be among the data recovered, but even then, with this new system of saving calendars and events, how does one import calendars into the newly installed iCal?
I'm not looking forward to having to rebuild my calendars, but it's looking as if I may have to. So far, this design of iCal is not a better idea.
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me.

Well I finally solved the problem. The confusion is in the wording.
Both iCal and Address Book have functions that work well to move calendars and contacts from one machine to the other.
Menu\File\Back up Database.
Menu\File\Revert to Database Backup.
Well I was scared of the Revert to Database Backup. It works. When you do so, you just point the program to the backup that you just made from the other machine, if it's what you are trying to accomplish.
I hope this might help you.
Maybe everybody knows how to do this and I am a slow brain - Leon.

Restore lost calendar

How do I restore lost calendar information?

I am missing all the calndars I created just on my MacBook Pro. This happened when I got an iPad Mini and I was trying to sync everything via iCloud. I finally got Contacts figured out, but as I was trying to sync it all, my calendars have disappeared. I can't find a place to enable or disable any calendars from view.

Restore lost calendars

I lost all of my work Icloud Calendars twice over the past ten days. Is it possible to restore our calendars data once they have been lost?

Try this:
Quit iCal. Go to Macintosh HD > your username > Library > Calenders, and see if you have any folders and files in there. If you have items in there, your data might not be lost.
Go to Macintosh HD > your username > Library > Preferences > and remove the file com.apple.iCal.plist to the desktop. Restart iCal. If your data is restored, you're good to go. If not, quit iCal and return ther file back to it's original place.
Good luck.

How to recover/restore deleted calendar?

How to recover/restore deleted calendar?

Actually, restore deleted calendar got the same steps as restore deleted messages. You must be a Microsoft Exchange Server account.
1.In the folder from which the item was deleted, or in the Deleted Items folder, on the Folder tab, in the Clean Up group, click Recover Deleted Items.
Note: If the Recover Deleted Items command is missing
An Exchange account is required for this command to appear. If you are using an Exchange account and don’t see the command, contact your Exchange administrator.
2.Click an item, and then click Recover Selected Items .
Note: Your Exchange administrator specifies the retention time for deleted items. After this time elapses, deleted items cannot be restored.
