I am having an issue with my calendar in the iCloud whereby my years for Birthdays and Anniversaries etc have screwed up due to Japanese Calendar not being translated to the Gregorian Calendar.

Back story is, I was having a problem where the Dictionary on iPhone was being displayed in Japanese, due to having a Japanese keyboard installed alongside the English AU keyboard. The genius bar, in an attempt to fix, changed the region settings and language of the phone to Japanese, changing the date layout to Japanese year format (It is currently year 25 in Japan).
While it was in Japanese, these date's overwrote my iCloud date's changing all iClou devises to these new years for B Days etc. Despite all iCloud devises now being back in Australian English and Region my dates are now faulty...
My friends Birthday today is stating that he is 1,950 years old as it has him born in 9/02/63 - in the japanese calendar he was born in the 63th year yes but it now has him listed as born 63AD not 1988AD as it should do. How, without manually going to every date in my cal and contact list and changing it back to a gregorian date, can you think I can fix this?
