When I try to import an ics file into the Calendar I receive a message "Cannot import from Downloads/appointment.ics. There are no importable items in this file." I found some articles where the line endings were not correct, I checked they are OK. I checked for invalid characters, there are none. So how I import the ICS file? What is not correct in the file? The file is: BEGIN:VCALENDAR VERSION:2.0 PRODID:-//Sabre//Sabre VObject 4.3.3//EN CALSCALE:GREGORIAN BEGIN:VEVENT UID:sabre-vobject-40eef33e-ae8f-4ebd-bae1-1e7f9b11a28f DTSTAMP:20220603T193644Z SUMMARY:Appointment - mymeeting DTSTART:20220707T133000Z DTEND:20220707T140000Z LOCATION:6875 Bd Rue Mycity Canada ORGANIZER;CN=1: ATTENDEE;CN=1: END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR

rename the file to remove the / or \ from the file name which will be interpreted as a folder delimiter.

It will be looking in a downloads folder for an appointments file.

The full text of the message is Cannot import from /home/gordynorth/Downloads/appointment.ics. There are no importable items in this file. As can be seen the ics file is in the downloads folder.
