Re: [Evolution] Problems with importing outlook calendar into Evolution

[Axel <wintera yahoo com>]

Hi! In effect Plaxo also does Calendar, so does Thunderbird on Linux and Windows and of course outlook.Â

Evo has the new Google Calender Plugin. It should not be difficult to use outlook plaxo >> plaxo to google cal >> evo ... I did not try it, but I could imagine this works.Â

OX, you should be able to use IMAP and/or Exchange to integrate. However, If you are backend is OX and other imap services you may like to try KONTACT or Thundberid/Lightening and compare it to Evo, before your settle. The data export/import might also be simpler ...Â

Thanks for the hint - unfortunately I'm not using ms-exchange, but a simple IMAP-account.

BTW: is there a possibility to connect to an OX-Server? something like an OXtender for Evo? Does anybody knows something about that?

regards

Patric

I did not read all the mails on the topic, but for calendar and exchange I moved all my off line calendar entires to the online calendar. In Evo you just add your account and all entries are there.

There are other sync tools for contacts and calendar (eg, plaxo, google cal) which can make the cross-porting fairly easy.

Big Email Archives can be a pain in my experience. but I used the Windows to Thunderbird way ... there might be better options now.

Have you selected the right calendar to import ? If you had selected
tasks by mistake, they would not have been imported. Please try to
import again by selecting the calendar and see if it works properly.
