      Hi, I try to "convert" my wife to UT. But she needs her calendar from outlook.com.
      I have tested her exported calendar.ics from outlook.com on my OPO (just pasted it at ~/.local/share/evolution/calendar/system).
      The entries are apparently all taken over, only the recurring dates do not appear in the following years although they are stored as such. If I edit the dates without any changes they appear in the following years. But I don't want to do that with every date.
      Is this a known bug and is there a workaround or a mistake I did?

          Thanks for opening this thread. I tried to replicate this (copying the calendar file to ~/.local/shared/calendar/systems) and it worked, but all appointments were shifted by -4 hours. Interestingly, in the clock section of the noification bar, allevents are listed

            with the correct time. My time zone is GMT -4 (and so is the timezone of outlook from which I exported the file). Any idea where this shift may never comming from ?

                @nogoogle I can confirm that behaviour and opened another issue at gitlab:
