How To Merge Apple Calendar With Google Calendar

Do you use both Apple Calendar and Google Calendar for your scheduling needs? Are you tired of manually updating both calendars with the same events and appointments? Well, you’re in luck! In this article, we’ll show you how to merge your Apple Calendar with Google Calendar seamlessly.

Step 1: Export Apple Calendar

The first step is to export your Apple Calendar. To do this, open your Apple Calendar and go to File > Export > Export. Choose a location to save the exported file and click Save. This file will be in the ICS format, which is a standard file format used for sharing calendar data.

Step 2: Import Apple Calendar to Google Calendar

Next, log in to your Google Calendar and go to Settings > Import & Export. Click on the “Select file from your computer” button and choose the ICS file you just exported from your Apple Calendar. Choose which calendar you want to import the events to and click Import. Google will then import all the events from your Apple Calendar into your Google Calendar.

Step 3: Sync Google Calendar with Apple Calendar

Now that your Apple Calendar events have been imported into Google Calendar, you’ll want to make sure any changes you make in Google Calendar are reflected in your Apple Calendar as well. To do this, go to Settings > Calendar Settings in your Google Calendar and click on the calendar you just imported your Apple Calendar events to. Scroll down to the “Private Address” section and click on the green “ICAL” button. This will generate a unique URL.

Question: What do I do with the unique URL?

Great question! Copy the unique URL and go back to your Apple Calendar. Go to File > New Calendar Subscription and paste the URL into the “Calendar URL” field. Click Subscribe and choose a name and color for the new calendar. Click OK and you’re done!

Question: Will my Apple Calendar events be updated in real-time?

Unfortunately, no. The sync between Apple Calendar and Google Calendar is not real-time. Changes made in Google Calendar can take up to 24 hours to be reflected in your Apple Calendar.

Conclusion

Merging your Apple Calendar with Google Calendar can save you time and ensure that all your events and appointments are in one place. By following these simple steps, you can easily sync your calendars and stay organized!
