Hello Everybody,

*

At present, I am working with KDE 4.8.2. along with Kubuntu 11.10.

I do manage now to sync with the google calendar and address book via Akonadi Googledata. However, I still do not manage to import a local calendar into the one of Google - in spite of several months of research at the internet and at a few forums.

*

Below, I summarise what I have been doing so far in this context.

*

Of course, I make backups of my ical files all the time.

*

In K-Menu > System, I have changed settings in "personal information": especially in the akonadi configuration module. There, I have added the birthday and the google calendar resource. Aditionally, I have removed there all the other resources, including the one of the "personal calendar" - however, without deleting it's ical file. Then, I tried to import that file into the Akonadi Googledata calendar via Dolphin, via Konqueror and directly via Kontact > Calendar > File > Import > Import calendar. So far, none of those methods have been effective!

*

When importing an .ics file directly into Google, only the events get through: not the tasks.

*

*

Be so kind to provide me with your suggestions and thoughts. Thanks, respectfully yours,

Bas Roufs.

The existing akonadi-googledata is fairly busted and unamintained.
A new akonadi resource has recently been released
http://www.progdan.cz/category/akonadi-google/
It is not yet in Precise, but there is a testing package here:
https://launchpad.net/~acelankao/+archive/kde
as well as in other ppa repos

You don't have to remove any existing google resources, and once installed you
add a new resource called "Google Calendar and Tasks"

One small caveat I have found is that it will error if you try to use the
parent "<username>@gmail.com" instead of a sub-category when selecting a
calnedar to use when creating a new entry. Other wise, it is syncing my
testing events and to-do items well.

Oops, I forgot to clarify that there is an Oneiric 11.10 package there as
well.

Thanks for your feedback so far.



The existing akonadi-googledata is fairly busted and unamintained.

A new akonadi resource has recently been released

http://www.progdan.cz/category/akonadi-google/

It is not yet in Precise, but there is a testing package here:

https://launchpad.net/~acelankao/+archive/kde

as well as in other ppa repos

In the mean time, I did manage to install this new resource via the PPA indicated above.

You don't have to remove any existing google resources,
Now I have two Akonadi calendar resources running next to one another - the old one and the new one. They do not merge. But when I check/ activate the new one, nothing happens so far. What best to do?


*and once installed you

add a new resource called "Google Calendar and Tasks"

I have done so.




One small caveat I have found is that it will error if you try to use the

parent "<username>@gmail.com" instead of a sub-category when selecting a

calnedar to use when creating a new entry.
*How can I make sure to use such a "sub-category"?
Other wise, it is syncing my

testing events and to-do items *well.

Events still show up via the old Google calendar resource as well as via some local calendar.
The whole to-do list is at the local calendar.
I still do not manage to import that local calendar into the google one.


In the mean time, Clay, I see a new message from you coming in. I take a look at it now.
Respectfully yours,
Bas Roufs.

I already found and installed that one.
