65 | I cannot sync Outlook with Sharp-DTM. How can I get my data from Outlook? | ||
66 | A: | ||
67 | There is a tool called Outport. | ||
68 | With that tool you can export your Outlook data to many small .ics files. | ||
69 | To get one big .ics file to able to import the data quickly in KO/Pi | ||
70 | you can do the following on Linux: | ||
71 | cat *.ics > mycalendar | ||
72 | mv mycalendar mycalendar.ics | ||
73 | Now you have one file, but kopi cannot read it. | ||
74 | You have to remove all lines in the file | ||
75 | (take a texteditor where search and replace is done quickly ) which are: | ||
