I need someone to help with lost Calendar information

I last week was upgraded to Mac OS HighSierra. I never used iCloud. But after the upgrade, when I performed Synchronisation with my iphone vis USB connection, I lost a the last few months of calendar entries, on both the iMac and the iPhone11. I am trying to find on my external memory (WD Elements) but am unable to find the calendar entries. Can someone tell me what the calendar content file is? I presume in the Library ....

And many previous entries on the calendar are "locked" - cannot move, edit, or delete.

iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.13

Hello ruth2011,

Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities, and we'll be happy to help in any way we can. We understand you're having issues with missing Calendar entries. Try the steps listed here to see if they resolve the issue: Refresh calendars on Mac

"Refresh calendars on Mac

If you publish or share calendars, you may want to refresh them so that others can see your latest changes. Or, if you subscribe to calendars, you may want to check for updates periodically to be sure you have the latest information.

A published or shared calendar has a Share Calendar button next to its name. A calendar you subscribe to has a Subscription button next to its name.

Refresh calendars

In the Calendar app on your Mac, choose View > Refresh Calendars.

Refresh a subscribed calendar

Subscribed calendars can be refreshed automatically.

In the Calendar app on your Mac, Control-click the calendar’s name, then choose Get Info.
Click the Auto-refresh pop-up menu, then choose an option.

Refresh shared calendars in an account

In the Calendar app on your Mac, choose Calendar > Settings, then click Accounts.
Select the account, click the Refresh Calendars pop-up menu, then choose an option.
If you choose Push, the account is updated automatically when you make a change on any of your devices that use the same account, or when someone makes a change to a shared calendar in that account.

Refresh a calendar you publish

In the Calendar app on your Mac, Control-click a calendar below On My Mac in the calendar list.
If you don’t see the calendar list on the left, choose View > Show Calendar List. If your calendar list doesn’t have an On My Mac section, your calendars are in an account, such as iCloud.
Choose Get Info, then select “Publish changes automatically.”

If you see a warning symbol next to a calendar you published, shared, or subscribed to, Calendar is unable to connect to the calendar account. Check your internet connection and try refreshing or updating the calendar again.

Also, make sure the calendar hasn’t been deleted or moved. To see the calendar’s web address, Control-click the calendar’s name, then choose Get Info.
