Normally you don't actually download the .ics file you put the link into your calendaring program for it to periodically check it. Depending on what email/calendaring program you use there will be a place to add a network or internet calendar, this is where you put the link (you can manually download the .ics file and use that but it won't be automatically updated if you do). The calendaring program will then re-download a new copy of the .ics file every so often (every day at least or maybe every 30 minutes depending on the preferences). I use the Lightning plugin to Thunderbird https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/lightning/ There are some simple instructions under "Importing the calendar into Lightning" at the bottom of this support page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/using-lightning-google-calendar -- "Believing men would act in their own interest was not cynicism, it turned out, but sheerest optimism; in reality men do not meet so high a standard." -- Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality (Chapter 84) http://hpmor.com/ Reece Arnott Dunedin New Zealand _______________________________________________ DunLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ethernal.org/listinfo/dunlug DunLUG Wiki - http://dunlug.kallisti.net.nz/
