iCal Instructions for your Apple/Mac calendar Use Apple iCal to SUBSCRIBE to our Allendale Boro 2010 Calendar Your Apple/Mac iCal calendar, included with the Apple X (and above) operating systems is a very powerful scheduling tool. In additional to maintaining your own schedule, iCal can also be used to SUBSCRIBE to additional public and private calendars. All you need is an iCal address in ICS Format. This iCal address is provided to you by the owner of any calendar. For example, many NY/NJ sports teams publish their games schedule - which you can then SUBSCRIBE to and add to your own calendar (with SUBSCRIBE-ing capability). Any calendar that is available on-line and has an ICS Format address, can be SUBSRIBEd to using iCal, Outlook, and many other desktop, mobile, and on-line calendar products. In order to demonstrate the power of using and SUBSCRIBE-ing to a calendar, I have established a calendar of services provided by the Borough of Allendale to its residents. As the owner of this calendar, I am making it available to the public by publishing its ICS Format address below. Follow the instructions below to SUBSCRIBE to our Allendale Boro 2010 calendar Step One Highlight and copy the following address below:
Step Two Open iCal on your Apple/Mac, click on CALENDAR, then PASTE the above address into the text box. After your complete PASTE, you should see the following. Then, click SUBSCRIBE.
Step Three You will then see something similar to the following below. Make sure AUTO-REFRESH is set to EVERY 5 MINUTES. Then, click OK.
Step Four The Allendale Boro 2010 Calendar will then appear within your iCal Calendar. Any changes made by Family Technology to this calendar will appear automatically. Enjoy! |
