Getting iCloud calendar to sync with HP Touchpad

So you want to display your iCloud calendar from your iOS device on your HP Touchpad (webos).

Well there is an easy way.

In the calendar on your Mac - right click on the calendar and share the calendar / make it public, and copy the url.

Paste the url into this website;

https://icaltogcal.com

Then click continue, and copy the new share url.

Add this to your google calendar;

Sign in to your Google Apps account in a web browser and open your GoogleCalendar.


In the left sidebar under Other Calendars, click the Add menu. Then choose one of the following:


Add by URL: Adds a team or company calendar someone created. Enter the calendar's address (ends in .ics).


Now it should process the url and add the calendar. It takes a few hours to start syncing, so it will be blank for a while, but after a few hours (I left it for 24 hours) it will start syncing.


Then on the Touchpad add your Google account to the calendar, and voila the calendar will appear on your Touchpad. 


Done.
