You can synchronize the Esprit Timetable to your calendar program on your computer, your device, Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook and possibly other calendaring apps. Here's how:
What calendar app are you using?
Older Mac systems call the application iCal; newer ones call it Calendar. We'll call it "Calendar" here, but the steps for both are very similar.
Use Calendar's Subscribe feature to subscribe to the Esprit Timetable. Do this:
You only have to do this once. The Esprit Timetable will now be linked to your calendar on your Mac. Every time you refresh your calendar (or whenever it auto-refreshes) you'll see the latest information. If you don't see it right away, you may need to scroll to May.
To subscribe to an external calendar like the Esprit Timetable, you have to add the calendar to your Account Settings. Do this:
You only have to do this once. The Esprit Timetable will now be linked to your calendar on your iOS device. Every time you refresh your calendar (or whenever if auto-refreshes) you'll see the latest information. If you don't see it right away, you may need to scroll to an appropriate date.
Google Calendar lets you add external calendars, such as the Esprit Timetable, to it. We assume you have a Google account already set up and that you're reasonably familiar with Google Calendar. Here's how you do it:
You only have to do this once. The Esprit Timetable will now be linked to your Google Calendar and will show up on your computer or via the Google Calendar web interface. If you don't see it right away, you may need to scroll to the appropriate month.
To get the calendar to show up on your Android device, see the next section.
The default calendar on Android devices is Google Calendar which is linked to your Google account. Making the Esprit Timetable appear on your phone is a two-step process.
First, follow the directions above to add the Timetable to your Google Calendar account.
Next, sync your Android device to your updated Google calendar. Do this:
Instructions and testing are in progress. Patience, please!
Most calendaring apps have a way to import calendars from other sources, and most can read iCalendar format files. iCalendar is an Internet standard for exchanging calendar information, and is the way the Esprit Timetable is exported.
The URL for the Esprit Timetable file is
https://info.espritgala.org/calendar/ical.php
This file is recreated every time you access it so the information is always fresh. The data doesn't change very often, though, so we recommend that you turn any auto-refresh rate OFF.
Consult your calendar app's documentation for more information.
