Q: All my iCal / iCloud information is gone.

Help?!?

All of my iCal information on iCloud has vanished. With the exception on one caledar that we really don't use much.

I have gone to icloud .com and only the one largely unused calendar is still listed.

Are they just gone?

I tried looking in time machine, but that seemed to be a dead end.

Any ideas on how I can get my calendars back?

Thanks ,

If you have an iDevice, and if you have set automatic backups to icloud, then you could restore a previous backup to the device. That should include calendars - as long as the deleted calendars happened in the past day or two.

Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. This will erase your device. Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your device was new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.
