Mac iSync data loss after synchronization & recovery
Apple Inc is known for its highly advanced & equipped devices and its upkeep its tradition of designing such products all through which is still on its way. One such application you should know off is iSync. With the use of Mac iSync, data such as contacts & calendar etc could be transferred to other computer and wide range of mobile devices.
Mac iSync program provides the option of syncing data from iCal as well as other address book used to SynML enabled system & more.

Still, a common problem novice users are most likely to face when using iSync is on account of the default setting it is set to as -'erase data on device then sync' . This very issue turns to severe situation of data loss when synchronization does not take place successfully or is interrupted in between due to some reason. This ends with data loss from the two destination arising the need of lost data recovery.
However as prevention to this problem one should consider changing the default sync settings to 'merge data on computer & device' as recommended by Apple, which copies data to the other location & the one at actual location remains unchanged.
The other way you could go with is upgrading from Mac OS X 10.4 to Mac OS X 10.4.1 & above which has the default setting of 'merge data on computer & device'. No doubt these will help you with prevention of mac iSync data loss in future, but in order to recover mac iSync data which has already been lost recovery is necessary allowing you get access to files as and when wanted to. The undelete Mac file utility is advanced & powerful enough to recover lost, deleted, corrupt & inaccessible data files back on place.
