Calendar entries & Outlook
It is possible to transfer calendar entries (.ics, .ifb, .iCal, .iFBf) downloaded from the Internet to your own digital calendar. For example, you can download the timetable from services.unibas.ch as an ics file and then import it into Outlook - in this case, all booked events are automatically displayed in your calendar. But you can also import events that you find on university websites directly into your calendar. On this page you will find instructions on how to do this.
