I have a series of events deleted in two months last year, it hasn't been 12 months yet, not all the events were deleted, just the ones of the "personal" calendar, this were not events that I had sinchronized with email accounts or anything. Oh, and I already checked the "advance options" I had never checked the box that says delete after XX time. Those events were suppossed to just be saved in my computer. What happened? Is there a place were ical backs up this information?

Hey, I found a solution... maybe not very practical, but I was able to open the Calendar Folder, in Library. (searching for "Calendars" in my mac)


They are scattered, and organize by calendars, not easy to find single events, but I was able after a while to recover the missing events. I just dragged them from the folder into the ical window.


I'm thinking it's just a bug that they're disapearing... I hope they fix it
