Outlook 2011 for Mac – subscribe to iCalendar feed

icsmicrosoft-outlookmicrosoft-outlook-2011

Similar to the question Add ics file to outlook 2011 (Mac) as new calendar, but rather than importing a static ICS file, I'd like to subscribe to an ICS feed (like iCal can). Is this possible with Outlook 2011 for the Mac?

In help I only see the note about "drag the .ics file to the Outlook Calendar grid or list", but that's going to be a one-time snapshot of the ICS file, rather than a dynamic polling of an iCalendar/ics feed.

I found this article for Outlook 2007, but I imagine it is specific to the Windows version as I don't have an 'Internet Calendar Tabs' under Accounts: View and subscribe to Internet Calendars.

Best Answer

Assuming your organization uses an Exchange 2010 Server, you can subscribe to '.ics' feeds using OWA:

  1. Login to Outlook Web Access
  2. Go to 'Calendar'
  3. Right click 'My Calendars', then left-click 'Add Calendars'
  4. Supply the URL to the '.ics' feed

Outlook for Mac will sync the calendar automatically.
