Ical dupe deleter mac#

I bounced back and forth between iCal and iPhone technicians. I spent 1.5 hours on the phone with Apple Support. I'm fearful of remnants lying about that will make this error come back.) (I have not gotten brave enough to rename the new calendars to the old names. Don't sync the old calendars with the original names! Then check the box to sync only selected calendars. Say 'yes' to remove / delete the calendars on your phone. Uncheck the box to 'Sync iCal Calendars'. On iTunes: connect the iPhone, and go to 'Info' for your phone. Import the old data into the newly created calendar. Name it something different, for example, if the original was 'holidays', then make the new one 'holidays_recreated'. Still on iCal, create a new calendar for each one of the ones exported. On iCal: export each calendar, one by one, into. The fix (summary): export the data in all iCal calendars, create new iCal calendars, import the data into the new calendars. My problem: something was corrupted in iCal, but it only showed up on the iPhone, not in iCal. I was only sync'ing via iTunes, not MobileMe, not iCloud. However, with hundreds of entries that are affected, I'm looking for a more elegant and less time-consuming solution. Given this, I have been able to go in and manually delete the entry with the new date/time, and after syncing, only one entry with the correct date/time remains.

However, I have discovered that if I change the date or time on one of the duplicate entries in iCal on my Mac (remembering that they don't appear as duplicates in iCal, only on the iPhone) a second entry then appears in iCal with the original time, suggesting that the iCal calendars have somehow duplicated multiple entries for the same event on the same date and time. None of these activities have corrected the issue. I have synced with Time Zone Support both on and off.I have confirmed the Date and Time on the Mac and iPhone are the same.I have synced with or without the 'Replace information on this iPhone' option in iTunes.I have saved backups of my iCal calendars, deleted them all from iCal, imported them back in to iCal, and then synced to the phone.I have removed all Calendars from the iPhone by unchecking the Sync option in iTunes, syncing, and then re-selecting that option, and syncing again.

I have synced the phone multiple times.

I have rebooted and reset the iPhone I have restarted iCal and my Mac.

In iCal, there is only one copy of each affected calendar, and on the iPhone each affected calendar is listed only once, and both are listed under 'From My Mac.'.

Calendar entries added via iCal on my Mac since this started appear only once on both the iPhone and in iCal on my Mac after syncing.

Not every entry from the 2 affected calendars is duplicated, but it is the vast majority some of the entries that aren't duplicated were created before the iOS5 upgrade, and some were created after.

I am syncing only through iTunes and always have been.

However, after syncing my iPhone to my Mac about a week later I now suddenly have duplicate entries on 2 of the 5 calendars being synced from my Mac, while the other 3 are unaffected. After upgrading to iOS 5.0 on my iPhone 4 and OSX Lion 10.7.2 on my Mac, everything was fine at first.
