Archive old iCal calendars using this software. Easily create new archives and keep past schedules organized.
To use iCal Archiver, simply launch the application and select the source calendar you wish to archive events from. You can choose to archive events from all calendars or a single one. Then select the archive date, which specifies which events should be copied to a new archive calendar and deleted from the source calendar.
Once you hit the Start button, iCal Archiver will create a new archive calendar and copy all events prior to the archive date to it. The progress of the archiving process will be displayed at the bottom of the window. Depending on the size of your calendar, this process may take a while, so be patient and allow plenty of time for it to complete. And don't use or quit iCal while iCal Archiver is running.
When the archiving process is finished, iCal Archiver will display an alert recommending that you export and delete the Archive calendar from iCal. To do this, select the archive calendar in the source list, choose Export from the File menu, and save the calendar as an ics file. Then control-click the Archive calendar and choose Delete. After you've deleted the Archive calendar, quit and relaunch iCal to save your changes and refresh the iCal database.
Once you've completed these steps, iCal's database should be much smaller and require less memory, resulting in faster performance. If you need to access the events on the Archive calendar in the future, you can easily import the calendar by double-clicking the ics file. Overall, iCal Archiver is a great tool for Mac users who need to clear out old events and improve the performance of iCal.
