From: Ary on
I'd like to subscribe to my son's school internet calendar. However it says I
must be using Mac OS X version 10.2.3 or later. I do not have the ical. My
operating system is windows and I have Outlook with which I tought I could
open those kinds of files. But when I click the subscribe link on the
school's page it only prompts me to save or open a file with a ".ics"
extension, which then my outlook does not open. The instructions on the
school's page say that ical app should open when I click "subscribe" but how
do I get that If I don't have Mac??? Help please!

Which Outlook do you have?

This function is native in Outlook 2007.

This may solve your problem if you are using an earlier Outlook:

That page is actually a dead end.

Here is the download page:
