I have a similar issue.  This is what I did - but it STILL does not
work - but works the very first time you use iCal - then when you quit
and restart - it doesn't work....

1) Use Finder - Search for anything iCal in your USER directory (ie
John if you are John) and delete it.
2) Use Finder to find all .ics files and delete them.
3) Sync with your Treo (make sure that you had the settings set to
"sync" and not use desktop or something crazy like that)
4) After sync, start iCal - watch as the HOME and WORK show up, then
in about 5 or more seconds - all of your stuff "appears".
5) Check it over - wow - it looks great and you are happy it is
working again - whew.
6) Quit iCal and open iCal again - ... oh.. it's all blank again - but
not really...  Click on the to-do's.  Then you will see your calendar
start to show up - sort of.. but there are no categories on the left,
etc.

SCREAM and yell because it's all screwed up AGAIN.

Repeat steps 1-6 - and NEVER quit iCal and it all seems to work just right...

Seriously.. it appears that "something" happens when we close iCal - a
data-cache or something - and that is when it get screwed up again.

I also noticed that even after I deleted "anything with iCal" in it,
Markspace progam still "remembered" all my categories.. hmmm. don't
like that.  I think that is what is causing the problem...

I don't like it one bit.
