Google Calendar exports calendars as a .zip that contains one or more .ics files. NimbleCal imports .ics files (you can import multiple at once).
You got this
Google's export is a little hidden, but once you have the `.ics` files, import is quick.
Step 1: Export from Google Calendar
In Google Calendar on the web:
- Open Settings.
- Find Import & export.
- Choose Export.
This downloads a .zip file to your computer.
Step 2: Unzip the export
Unzip the downloaded file so you can access the .ics files inside.
Step 3: Import into NimbleCal
In NimbleCal:
- In the left sidebar under My Calendars, click the + menu.
- Choose Import calendar.
- Click Browse files.
- Select one or more
.icsfiles from the unzipped folder. - Choose where to import:
- + New to create a new calendar for the import (recommended), or
- Existing to add events into an existing calendar.
- Click Import events.
Common issues
- I only see a .zip file: Unzip it first, then import the
.icsfiles. - Duplicates after importing: If you imported the same
.icstwice, you may see duplicates. Import once per calendar export.
