I successful migrated Outlook's contacts into Gmail contacts, but for some reason I'm not able to import my Outlook's Task's CSV into Google Calendar.

Any ideas?

  • Are you trying to copy the Calendar or the Tasks? I wouldn't expect that you could copy Outlook Tasks to Google Calendar as they are different data types. – Julian Knight Mar 06 '13 at 17:30

The process from Google detailing event importation from iCal or CSV formats is shown here, and is fairly simple - you just need to export your calendar from Outlook in an appropriate format, and import it into your Google account. iCal is the preferred format, as CSV formats might not work correctly with recurring events. The process to export your calendar in iCal format is outlined in this article.

Likewise, you might also want to see this Microsoft KB article: Transfer calendars between Outlook and Google Calendar, which outlines the process from Microsoft's perspective:

By using Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, you can import and export calendars from Google Calendar as Calendar Snapshots in the iCalendar format. This functionality enables you to transfer calendars between Outlook and Google Calendar.

    many thanks to all! yes, I'm trying to migrate my outlook tasks to google calendar, just because this way was recommended by http://www.ehow.com/how_5849305_export-ms-outlook-google-calendars.html. in fact, I just want to copy my tasks to google; I didn't see any manual for import google tasks. – Vitaly Karasik DevOps Mar 07 '13 at 09:34
  • @Vitaly did my answer help solve your question? If so, could you mark it as the correct answer? (it's bad practice to leave questions un-answered) Alternatively, if you did find the solution in a different manner, you are free to post it as an answer to your own question. – Breakthrough Mar 07 '13 at 20:26
  • sorry, no. I asked to Tasks migration, not calendar. thank you anyway. – Vitaly Karasik DevOps Mar 08 '13 at 11:52
