Actually they did, but the sun does that every 11 years. 2012 happens to be the next Solar Maximum.
You're confusing the 11-year solar cycle with a magnetic pole shift. Two different animals. The sun does not reverse it's magnetic field every 11 years.

February 15, 2001 -- You can't tell by looking, but scientists say the Sun has just undergone an important change. Our star's magnetic field has flipped.
The Sun's magnetic north pole, which was in the northern hemisphere just a few months ago, now points south. It's a topsy-turvy situation, but not an unexpected one.
"This always happens around the time of solar maximum," says David Hathaway, a solar physicist at the Marshall Space Flight Center. "The magnetic poles exchange places at the peak of the sunspot cycle. In fact, it's a good indication that Solar Max is really here."
The Sun's magnetic poles will remain as they are now, with the north magnetic pole pointing through the Sun's southern hemisphere, until the year 2012 when they will reverse again. This transition happens, as far as we know, at the peak of every 11-year sunspot cycle -- like clockwork.

sorry if i repeat any information... i made it through the first 3 pages before deciding to reply.
The mayans predicted many events w/in their own cultural time.. including the arrival of the spanish and the end of their own culture.
The problem with finding out what other predictions they made, is that almost all of their written works were destroyed by the church as Christianity made it's way through their land... only 4 written documents survived. Who knows what sort of predictions and astronomical information was destroyed.
The 12.21.2012 date seems to be significant, imo, because it's also the day that the earth will pass through the universal hemisphere. Scientists don't really know what this means... but it is possible that the earth's poles will shift on that day... basically throwing the earth into climactic chaos. Would that be the end of all life on earth? probably not. But, what could happen? People and animals will survive, but civilizations as we know them will be so undone as to have to undergo a drastic rebuilding. Land masses will change due to flooding and, possibly, volcanic activity. Most modern communication will probably be knocked out... which is probably one of the single most devastating things to the world as we know it.
As someone said, the mayans never say the world is going to end.. just this phase of civilization and society.. and a new one will begin.
I personally believe that crossing the universal hemisphere is going to have a huge effect on the earth, the sun and the moon... and that the above mentioned changes are going to happen...
of course, we'll never know until the date arrives... i just plan on being somewhere temperate and away from the ocean or any large glaciers.

If I remember correctly, unlike the earth which has one magnetic pole, the sun has zillions of non-aligned constantly changing magnetic poles.

Actually, the earth has more than two poles, I guess I need to dig up a reference for this too.
The sun has many minor poles but two major ones just like the earth...

Correction: One major magnetic field with two poles. There are probably many very minor ones due to clumping of iron ores and such.

The earth's magnetic fields have little to do with it's iron content and more to do with the solar wind...

Yep, I stand corrected. For some reason I though you were talking about the Earth's magnetic field.
Nevermind.

The Mayans predicted that by 2012 somebody would have updated their damn calendar.

It is the rotation of the liquid iron core that causes Earth's magnetic fields.... The solar wind is deflected (except at the poles) by the magnetics, but they can snap the magnetic field bands if there is a strong enough solar storm....
That is why Mars is fucked, it doesn't have strong enough magnetic fields to deflect the solar winds, thus losing it's atmosphere....

So it has been happening every 11 years (or so) since the birth of the solar system, yet this time (drum roll) it is different?

And that won't change in 2013, either.
