iCal makes its debut on the events calendar
We are proud to announce you can now subscribe to any calendar via iCal or save any individual event in iCal format. This will allow anyone to keep up with university events without having to check site every day. Just subscribe to a category of event you are interested in or a specific calendar.
Subscriptions
You can choose your calendar or subscribe to the main events calendar (really large list, you have been warned) by visiting the iCalendar page. Subsequently if you want to subscribe via RSS you can still do that at the RSS page.
Saving individual events
When viewing an event, below the contact information is this bar, with the last option on the bar a single ical file will be downloaded and can be imported into your favorite desktop calendar, Outlook 2007, iCal…

Subscribing via Google Calendar
Google calendar is a popular web based calendar and the process to subscribe it straightforward and can translate to most web and desktop calendars.
Step 1:
Find the iCal feed you would like to subscribe to at the iCalendar page, right click on the feed link and select “Copy Link Location”

Step 3:
Paste in the URL and click Add.

iCal is hot! But I got a lot of error messages when I downloaded the calendar. Is that normal? The rest of campus might be equally excited about this kind of functionality. Let’s not keep it a secret.

Michael, What calendar were you trying to download? Also what program are you downloading the calendar to? Outlook?
