iCal, Firstclass email/Calendar and iPhones

[Don McNamee]

Hi All,

Like many of you, we use FirstClass as our email system. A number of staff/students are not fond of the calendar feature(s) however and would like to use iCal instead. Are any of you aware of having iCal talk to FirstClass's Sync Services - that is based on the SyncML standard?

Cheers,

Don

Don,

Were you able to find any solutions to this problem. I am currently exporting my FirstClass calendar into iCal manually and having to deal with reconciling the changes by hand.

Thanks,
AV

Hi Dan,

You can setup iCal to pull down your FirstClass calendar and refresh automatically. I found the instructions on FirstClass online. I only had to make a a couple changes in "Headermatch" document within Internet Services. It works fine except that the FC calendar is "Read only" in iCal.

Hi Hossein,

Can you post the url where you got the instructions from?

Cheers,

Don,

I got the instructions from fc.firstclass.com site. This site requires a FCOL account.

There are a couple of posts about this topic but the one from Joel Anderson on August 14, 2007 with the subject: "Re: Web Calendar Export" has the detail info.
