I download the .ics file from ical.mac.com, but when i try to open in oulook
or import the file, i get the error meesage "This error can appear if you
have attempted to save a recurring Lunar appointment in iCalendar format.
To avoid this error, set the appointment option to Gregorian instead of Lunar.
More information about this error message online." I went online and
folowed all the help messages i could, still get messages. Can you help me?

Some .ics files just aren't compatible with Outlook. Exactly why isn't clear. Opening the file in Notepad and hacking at it might produce a solution.
