Recovery calendar from old back up?

**sonread2** · 02-07-2009 02:13 AM

Hey is it possible to recover my calendar from an old back up? Or would i have to sent up my phone again to do that? I'm familiar with ssh so if that is needed I could do it.

If you have a Mac you could do it with mdhelper

Hi
I haven't seen a tool like it for a PC

All I can suggest you do it locate the itunes backup on your windows PC

Find a friend with a Mac & put your backup in /Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/

Then rum erica's tool & it should extract your Calendar data to his desktop

There is an even easier to use app called iPhone Backup Extractor (iPhone / iPod Touch Backup Extractor). It is free but Mac-only aswell.

here are the locations where the backup is:

Mac OS X
~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/

Windows XP
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

Vista
C:\users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\AppleComputer\ MobileSync\Backup\

Yep, there is so much information in all those files. It is more than obvious why it is not recommended at all to sync on a computer you do not own...
