On the Mac, clicking “Subscribe” on the calfeed page is usually enough – the Calendar app opens and offers the subscription. Alternatively, set it up manually:
Set up the subscription manually
- Copy the calendar URL of the calfeed (how to find it).
- Open the Calendar app and choose File → “New Calendar Subscription …” from the menu.
- Paste the calendar URL and click “Subscribe”.
- In the following dialog choose:
- Location: “iCloud” (subscription appears on all your Apple devices) or “On My Mac” (local only).
- Auto-refresh: e.g. “Every 5 minutes” – the fastest way to receive changes.
- Confirm with “OK”.
Change the refresh interval later
Right-click the calfeed in the sidebar → “Get Info” → choose the interval under “Auto-refresh” (from every 5 minutes to weekly). The Mac is the only common platform where you control this interval yourself – more about freshness.
