Missing Outlook 2013 Calendar and Contacts, Mail is Okay

Like the title says, we are missing Outlook 2013 calendar entries and contacts.

We are not using Exchange, but we are using an ost file. I did an Outlook scanpst, and Outlook repair. Some of the messages were gone, so I deleted the .ost file to allow it to rebuild. Although all the email messages have returned, the Outlook Calendar entries and contacts are gone. How do we get those back? This is just one PC that is affected. Thanks.

IMAP.

Also it is our own domain name, not gmail, etc.

No, there is no web interface.

I was able to recover the contacts/autocomplete via the .nk2 file.

I still am trying to recover the calendar.

I found a program that will convert OST to a PST and I see a lot of calendar entries, but in order to restore, I have to buy the program, about $100.00 . Is there another way to do restore the calendar other than a 3rd party program?

in the original question you said you deleted the OST

Yes, I deleted the OST file because all the emails weren't showing up. By deleting it, I rebuilt the OST file and the old emails started populating the folders. But the calendar did not.
