hi, i’m having some trouble with my iCal feeds.

first, i’ve confirmed that the feeds work and are publicly accessible without being logged in.

in iCal or Google Calendar, i’m able to subscribe to the feeds, but nothing shows up in either application when i view the calendar.

any ideas?

It should work OK on iCal (as far as I know, it won’t work on Google Calendar because that doesn’t support VTODO events like iCal and other calendars based on the vCal format).

However, there’s a known bug with the iCal feeds breaking if you have either: 1) notes with linebreaks/carriage returns in them or, 2) accented characters like umlauts etc. Might that be the problem?

I have noticed the same thing.  I can’t get the iCal feed into my Google Calendar either.  After a few minutes it reports “failed to import”.

Hesadanza: see my comment above. The feeds won’t work with Google Calendar until Google supports VTODO.
