One important note, though-in older versions of OS X, this process would duplicate events onto the calendar you imported them to. Select “OK” afterward, and you’re done! The events from your exported calendar will merge with whichever one you chose in step 5, and then you can safely delete the original calendar by selecting it from the sidebar and pressing Command-Delete. A pop-up window will appear, asking you which calendar you’d like to import the events to. Within Calendar, choose File> Import, and then pick the. Save the resulting file out somewhere on your Mac.Ĥ. From the menus at the top, choose File> Export> Export.ģ. From the list on the left, select the calendar you’d like to export the events from.Ģ.

I am nothing if not paranoid about your data, dear readers!Īnyway, here are the steps for merging calendars:ġ. If something goes horribly, horribly wrong, you’ll at least have a way to recover your stuff if you do that first.

I strongly suggest that you make a backup of your calendars before you get started with this process. If you want to have fewer calendars, though-or you’d just like to merge the existing events from one calendar onto another-there’s a really easy way to clean things up. I like separating my work and home life as much as possible, and the Calendar program provides a neat way to do that. If you’re like me, you’ve got tons of color-coded calendars for organizing different types of events.
