Hi all,

We have some internal software that is used to book appointments for our sales consultants. They have access to their diary via a website but the tech director has added a link to iCal, he then emailed out instructions on how to set it up on Windows with Outlook, on Apple Mac and apple mobile products.

Problem is, that a lot of our sales people use Android mobile devices and they want to sync their calendars.

I've tried setting it up on Google Calendar on my PC but it requires an iCal file, not a link which means it's not updating with new appointments.

Anyone suggest any software, preferably free that can do live syncing with iCal on Android?

I seem to be finding lots of guides for adding Google Cal to iCal but not the other way

Keeping in mind that most don't have apple accounts, they just need to be able to import an ical into a calendar app.

In Google Calendar, bottom left, choose add by URL

This should then sync fine to the Google account on any android phone, and any calendar app
 
yeah found that after posting but for some reason it's not syncing. I've also tried Outlook for Android but the work accounts aren't setup for calendars so that won't work.

I've tried iCalSync and iCalSync2 and the built in calendars. No joy.

iCalSync2 is throwing a parse error so I've emailed the Tech Director to look into it, maybe it's not an issue my end.
