Been struggling for a bit on this. Would have been nice though for a heads up on the time this stuff takes to complete. Took a full 18 hours (64982.27 seconds) to repair! 1 user had wiped their entire calendar events when they connected their iPhone for the first time through iTunes... I needed to restore just his mailbox from the previous night's backup. It would seem that in the question of Mac vs PC, even the devices are at war :) Awesome article.
