Calendar FAQ

Where do I login?

http://calendar.google.com/a/haverford.edu

Not at this time.

How do I get Haverford’s public calendars into my Google Calendar (ex Haverford Campus Calendar of Events)?

View the About Exporting Events Page that is located on the Haverford Calendar. Once you have decided what you would like to export and by which method, read Google’s Calendar Import and Export Documentation.

Why is my Google Calendar set to “share this calendar with everyone is the organization Haverford College” by default?

By default, your Google Calendar in HaverApps is set to “share this calendar with everyone is the organization Haverford College” and your calendar is viewable as “see only free/busy (hide details).” This is the default for all HaverApps calendars to enable meeting scheduling across campus. If prefer that a generic free/busy version of your calendar not be available to the campus, you may make your calendar private.

Can I use my Google Calendar offline?

Yes! Google that allows you to access Google Calendars offline by clicking the “Offline” link in the upper right corner of your Gmail interface. This tool is useful for when you have a flaky connection, like riding the train to and from campus.

N.B. – You must have administrative access to your machine to download and install an application used to set up this lab. Also, this feature makes a local copy of your calendar on your system, so only install this feature on your personal machine.

How do I view my Calendar on my smartphone?

See the Google’s Apps for Mobile Page for details.

How do I find out more about calendars?
