I use an apple and the iCal calendar. The other day, all my calendar events dissapeared! I did not delete them.

Also, all my firefox bookmarks dissapeared as well.


What's going on? Can I get this stuff back?
 
Are you connecting to an Exchange server or something similar? OR syncronising with anything?

sounds like a cache file went south - try a permission fix for starters. Disk utility can be found in Applications - Utilities - Disk Utility - choose Repair Permissions.

You can also try to move all of the files in ~/Library/Preferences/ApplicationsSupport and delete ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.ical.plist, doubelclick iCal and all of your events should be back.

Everything will be OK in the end.
If it's not OK, then it's not the end
 
Happened to me as well. I sync with exchange server and on two occassions I lost everything including the one on dot mac. I had backed up the night before. So I do an export once a week to make sure. Never did figure out why.
