iPhone 3.0 upgrade: Google Sync contacts and calender gone!

I just updated my iPhone to the new 3.0 oper­at­ing sys­tem it looks like it emp­tied the iPhone’s local cache of con­tacts and cal­en­dar entries from Google Sync. To get them synced up and work­ing again just go to ‘Set­tings’ > ‘Mail, Con­tacts, Cal­en­dars’ > [Your Google Sync account] and turn off Con­tacts and Cal­en­dars. Your phone is ask you if you want to delete all local con­tacts and cal­en­dar entries (this is OK, there are none to delete any­way). Then, turn these both back on. This per­forms the ini­tial sync to pull all of your con­tacts and cal­en­dar entries.

  1. Yes, i just updated my 2G iphone to 3.0, and dur­ing the synch process, bye bye 850 con­tacts. Then blew them away on my lap­top and then our server. Apple store tech worked 4 hours and couldn’t solve issue and on top of that, blew up my prior iphone with the backup con­tacts, so now i’m dead.
