The exact process depends on what application you are using. But in general the process is pretty straigthforward. If your calendar application is configured as the default calendar on your computer, no special tricks are needed.

Step 1

On the Kalendere page, select a calendar you like and click Abonner.

If you are not logged in to WebCal.Guru, the button will be labeled Last ned. You will not be able to modify subscription settings and you will have significantly smaller selection of calendars. In this case, jump directly to Step 4.

Step 2

Adjust the subscription settings if needed and click Legg til mine kalendere.

Step 3

You will be taken to Mine kalendere page. On the calendar you just added, click Last ned.

Step 4

Your browser will ask for your permission to open your calendar application. Click Allow to send the calendar data to your calendar for processing. From now on your calendar application handles the subscription.

If automatic subscription fails (for example, if you use a different calendar application than what your browser suggests), you will need to subscribe manually.

Step 1

On the Kalendere page, select a calendar you like and click Abonner.

If you are not logged in to WebCal.Guru, the button will be labeled Last ned. You will not be able to modify subscription settings and you will have significantly smaller selection of calendars. In this case, jump directly to Step 3.

Step 2

Adjust the subscription settings if needed and click Legg til mine kalendere.

Step 3

You will be taken to Mine kalendere page. On the calendar you just added, click and select Last ned.

Step 4

Open your calendar application, and look for a command to add new calendar (or a new calendar subscription). Paste the address in Subscription URL or similar field. All applications are different so it is impossible to give instructions for all of them. If you can't find it, send email to [email protected] and we'll resolve it together.

Calendars are processed by your calendar application and that's where they're unsubscribed. Each application is a bit different, but in general you simply select the calendar to unsubscribe, then select Edit > Delete. Below in this help you will find more detailed instructions for most common calendar applications.

Most calendar applications remove alarms from calendar subscriptions. In order to see the alarms, in most cases you have to turn enable alarms in the subscription and remove filtering in your application. For details how to do this, take a look at the Help section for your platform/application below.

Step 1

On the Kalendere page, select a calendar you wish to enable alarms for and click Rediger.

Step 2

Click on the tab Alarmer and adjust the alarm settings as you like.

Step 3

Click Lagre.

Step 4

Now you must prevent your calendar application from removing the alarms. By default they do not show alarms, so this has to be done for each application. If you can't find how to do this, please take a look at the instructions below for most common calendar applications. You may also send us email to [email protected]. The new settings take effect the next time your application downloads the calendar data, usually within a couple days. You may also do it manually to receive the update right away.

Alarms can be disabled either by having the calendar application remove them, or by disabling them at WebCal.Guru. This process shows how they are disabled from the subscription at WebCal.Guru. Note that disabling the alarms can be done with any device.

Step 1

On the Kalendere page, select a calendar you wish disable enable alarms for and click Rediger.

Step 2

Click on the tab Alarmer and set both alarm settings to Ingen.

Step 3

Click Lagre. The new settings take effect the next time your application downloads the calendar data, usually within a couple days. You may also do it manually to receive the update right away.

If the calendar can't be generated for any reason, its content is replaced by the error message. For example, if you have deleted the calendar subscription from WebCal.Guru, your calendar application will display an error.

WebCal.Guru can't remove the subscription from your calendar application. If you do delete a subscription, you must remove it manually from your calendar application.

Unwanted ads in your calendar come from an spam calendar import or subscription. By far the most common way is the calendar subscription method.

The technology is the same as WebCal.Guru uses, but spammers use it for evil instead of good. These calendar subscriptions can't appear automatically, but the user must accept them. But if you do not expect a calendar subscription confirmation, it is easy to accept it unintentionally.

Fortunately it is quite easy to get rid of the spam calendar.

Step 1

On the home screen of the device, tap Calendar.

Step 2

Turn the device vertically and tap Calendars at the bottom of the screen.

Step 3

Look for the calendar you wish to unsubscribe and tap on the icon beside it.

Important! Make sure you delete the right calendar. Usually it is named to something inconspicuous, such as Events. You can find out the calendar by clicking open one spam calendar event.

Step 4

Scroll down and tap Delete Calendar.

Step 5

Tap Delete Calendar.

When subscribing calendars to Apple devices, it can be done either directly to the device or via iCloud. The main difference is that when the subscription is done via iCloud, the subscription is automatically shared with all of the user's Apple devices. Usually this is just what the user wants.

On an iOS device (iPhone/iPad), it is not possible to subscribe via iCloud. All subscriptions done on an iOS device will be stored on that device only. Therefore it is recommended to subscribe using a Mac computer, and then the subscription is automatically shared with the iOS devices as well. Note that even if the subscription is done on a Mac and therefore shared with all of the user's devices, it is still possible to hide it from those devices where one does not want them.

If you still want to subscribe on the iOS device, please follow these instructions.

Step 1

On the Kalendere page, select a calendar you like and click Abonner.

If you are not logged in to WebCal.Guru, the button will be labeled Last ned. You will not be able to modify subscription settings and you will have significantly smaller selection of calendars. In this case, jump directly to Step 4.

Step 2

Adjust the subscription settings if needed and click Legg til mine kalendere.

Step 3

You will be taken to Mine kalendere page. On the calendar you just added, click Last ned.

Step 4

You will be presented with a confirmation to subscribe the calendar. Tap Subscribe.

Step 5

Tap Done.

Android does not support calendar downloads natively. However, there are applications which do just this. One which works great is ICSx⁵. Once you have installed that (some devices have it pre-installed), proceed with these instructions.

Step 1

On the Kalendere page, select a calendar you wish subscribe and tap Last ned.

Step 2

Adjust calendar settings if needed, then tap Legg til mine kalendere.

Step 3

You will be taken to Kalendere page. On the calendar you just added, tap Last ned.

This depends on which application you are using to subscribe to a calendar. The most common of these is ICSx⁵. This application will be used as an example how to unsubscribe.

Step 1

Open the ICSx⁵ application and tap on the calendar you wish to remove.

Step 2

Tap .

Calendars are processed by the calendar application and that's where they're unsubscribed. Unsubscribing can only be done in the macOS Calendar application, not at WebCal.Guru.

Step 1

If the calendar list is not shown, click Calendars.

Step 2

Select a calendar to delete.

Step 3

Right-click on the calendar and select Unsubscribe.

The macOS Calendar application can add its own alarms to events in subscribed calendars. To remove them, follow these instructions.

Step 1

Open the Calendar menu and select Preferences.

Step 2

Select the account where the subscribed calendars are (usually iCloud or On My Mac). Make sure both Events and All Day Events are set to None.

Alarms can be disabled either by having the macOS Calendar application remove them, or by disabling them at WebCal.Guru. This process shows how they are disabled from the subscription at WebCal.Guru. Disabling the alarms can be done with any device. Note that the macOS Calendar application may also add alarms to events even though the calendar does not contain them. Please take a look at the previous section I have not enabled alarms but I still get them. Why? as well.

Step 1

On the Kalendere page, select a calendar you wish disable enable alarms for and click Rediger.

Step 2

Click on the tab Alarmer and set both alarm settings to Ingen.

Step 3

Click Lagre. The new settings take effect the next time your application downloads the calendar data, usually within a couple days. If you wish, you may tell the Calendar to refresh the data immediately. Open the Calendar application, open the View menu and select Refresh Calendars.

The Mac version of Outlook does not support subscribing calendars. However, you may add a calendar subscription via Outlook.com (see Outlook Web below). Note that if you are using a corporate address, your Outlook webmail address is probably different.

If the calendar cache of the Calendar application gets corrupted, it may cause all sorts of weird behavior. Typically calendars have stopped synching to/from iCloud, or some calendars are not shown at all (although the events in the may still show). This can be resolved by clearing the calendar cache. When the Calendar application is reopened, it will regenerate this cache.

Step 1

Quit the Calendar application.

Step 2

In Finder, press the Option key down and select Go > Library.

Step 3

Select the Calendars folder.

Step 4

Select File > Duplicate to make a backup of the folder, just in case something goes wrong.

Do only if something goes wrong later in this process. You can restore the backup by moving the folder Calendars elsewhere, and renaming the duplicate Calendars copy back to Calendars.

Step 5

After the duplication is complete, select the original Calendars folder again.

Step 6

Drag these files to the trash:

• Calendar Cache
• Calendar Cache-shm
• Calendar Cache-wl

Step 7

Open the Calendars application. It will be empty, but don't be alarmed. It will be filled automatically, but this may take surprisingly long. Minutes, hours or even a day.

Google Calendar updates calendar subscriptions every 12 or 24 hours. There is no way for the user to force Google Calendar to update more often. You can either just wait up to 24 hours for Google Calendar to update, or you can change the subscription identifier. When the identifier is changed, Google doesn't find the calendar in its cache and is forced to download it.

Step 1

First, delete the current calendar subscription from Google. Log in to Google Calendar, take a look in the panel in the left side. If needed, open Other calendars by clicking to show the calendars. Then click to unsubscribe from that calendar.

Step 2
