The MacMost Question and Answer Forum is a place where you can ask how-to questions about your Mac, iPhone, iPad and other Apple products. MacMost specializes in tutorials, tips and techniques of the “how-to” variety, as opposed to “fix-it” questions that are more about something not working as expected.4/20/10

Wondering if there is a way I can convert a .vcs calendar file from my on-line work scheduling software to an .ics format that I can import into iCal.

Gary,
