Comments on: Migrating Lotus Notes Calendar to iCal http://studio.messlinger.com/2010/01/06/migrating-lotus-notes-calendar-to-ical/ Photography and the Mac Tue, 11 Oct 2011 19:13:13 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Klaus Messlinger http://studio.messlinger.com/2010/01/06/migrating-lotus-notes-calendar-to-ical/comment-page-1/#comment-6450 Klaus Messlinger Wed, 06 Oct 2010 07:03:01 +0000 http://studio.messlinger.com/?p=1765#comment-6450 Hi Hans, thanks for your feedback. I had the same issue when "there was more than one area enclosed with BEGIN:VCALENDAR and END:VCALENDAR lines". Use your favourite text editor, search for all instances of those lines and remove them. Leave only one BEGIN:vCALENDAR at the very beginning and one END:vCALENDAR at the very end of the text, then all events will be imported in one go. And it is also a good idea to create a new import calendar first. Thus, you will be able to safely delete any import gone wrong without affecting other calendars. Hope that helped, Klaus Hi Hans,

I do understand all of your input. However, When I migrate Lotus Notes, the following happens. I get stuck with about 5 time a BEGIN:vCALENDAR and END:vCALENDAR event. Logically, iCal only imports the first vCalendar event. For now I managed to delete already imported vCalendar events and re-import the rest of the file. I do not intend to repeat this every time (5 times..). Do you have an idea how this is happening and what I can do against it?
