Apple iCal for Windows? Linux?
Every wish you could access or create Apple iCal calendars on other machines? You can! Mozilla has the Calendar project going on. “We are striving to build a cross-platform fully standards based calendar client based on the open iCal standard.”- Mozilla What it does is adds a calendar app to Mozilla products. This app then can read and create .ics files, or otherwise know as iCal files. I have iCal calendars published on a WebDAV server (Spymac) and I was able to subscribe to them in the Mozilla Calendar. Everything showed up great! One thing to keep in mind is the Mozilla Calendar is in beta so bugs are there and it doesn’t look as slick as FireFox’s interface. However there is an entire calendar, events, alarms and more available. All completely compatible with Apple’s iCal and usable on Mac, Windows and Linux running Mozilla, Firefox, Thunderbird or Netscape. Oh and it’s free!
Download/Install Now.
Untill then the much older Linux ical is working again.
The two aren’t related.
ical becouse at the time a bunch of Linux apps were i… (i for independent, x for X11, K for KDE and G for Gnome. the vareous GUI systems. However I and X are redundent as all the Linux GUIs are X11)
Every sense the iMac everything apple did was i this and i that.
And there is a service called ical. Internet calander.
Still it’s nice having more than one ical for Linux just as it is probably nice having more than one ical on Mac (someone ported the older Linux ical to the Mac platform).

I have looked at the mozilla stuff and it’s cool, but I want to know is the iCal software available for Windows, not other progs that support but an actuall iCal prog?

Andy - iCal, the program, is Apple only.
Jack - You’d probably have to do this manually by dragging the calendar file onto your iPod. However, I’d do some searching on VersionTrackker or someplace that may be able to good suggestions.
