So I finally got around to moving my domain to use google apps for your domain. So far I like it, but migrating from 2 years of Gmail use has been tough. I haven’t moved much email yet, though I’m pretty sure that a temporary upgrade to a pro account can take care of that – steps will come in another post once they are completed.

So now it’s time to move my calendars. I run out of 3 calendars, one for timetables (hours worked, uni classes etc), one for due dates (projects, assignments) and one for everything that doesn’t come under either of thsoe 2 categories like personal dates.

I expected it to be an annoying and arduous task, but low and behold, it is extremely simple!

First you need to log into your Gmail account, click settings up the top rightm, choose the calendars tab and export all your calendars.

Unzip the file and keep the .ics files somewhere handy.

Next, log into your Google apps calendar and create the neccesary calendars.

Then click the little arrow next to Add and choose import calendar

From here you select the file you want to import, the calendar you want to import to and voila! Calendar moved from Gmail to Google Apps for your Domain.
