How to get Android Calendar to handle .ics files
HTC One running 4.1.2, Rogers
Seems like it should be simple and worked fine on my old galaxy - when I get a calendar invite, say in gmail, I used to be able to click on, say the "Yes" link and it took me straight to the Calender app with the entry ready to go. Doesn't work now, so Ok fine - the email comes with the .ics file attached. Download or launch that file, Android doesn't know what to do with it.
I've been unable to find a way to associate .ics with Calendar. Seems like it should be simple - it is not. There are a few handler apps but none seem to work, but really, we need an app to create a file association?
Google has not helped, didn't see anything here. Seems like a pretty major hole. Anyone?
