These following are notes I made for myself when the same thing happened to me last year. It all came ok in the end although I'm not sure how! I now make regular backups using the 'options'. Hope that's some help but I don't remember any more details.

The Reminder Fox calendar is synched to your Google calendar at logon (if you have a Google account and a good internet connection)
But to be safe, make a back-up from: Options/General/Reminder Fox backup. Put the backup file in the usual place under the Reminder Fox folder. Restore can be used from same menu.

The /ics.bak files seem to be saved in:
:C\Users\Toshiba\Documents\Desktop\Old Firefox Data\xhdtvv5g.default\reminderfox

On one occasion Reminder Fox was completely blank and I had to somehow reinstall this from the Reminder Fox Roaming profile. Not sure how I did this! Perhaps it just synched itself to the Google calender?
Best to make it do a 'Sync Remote Calendars', 'Sync all active remote calendar accounts' and check by logging in to Google

Hi Just updated to Reminderfox 35 and of course forgot I HAD to back up all my data. Cant find an older .ics file on my computer to restore. Are you telling me that the old file is deleted when you upgrade? Whats the point of that? HELP

Hi!

Do you mean that you updated to Firefox v35?  ReminderFox has been stable for the last few weeks.

Where did you look for the reminderfox.ics file?

It's possible that Firefox created a new profile during its update, so check http://www.reminderfox.org/documentation-faq-troubleshooting/#r5 for some information on where to look for the Firefox profile.
