One Time Import of your iCal calendar

If you used iCal before choosing PlumLife as your details management solution, converting your data over is easy.

You will want to import your data calendar by calendar from iCal to PlumLife so that you keep the data separated and color coded as you have it in iCal now.

You will make a copy of the data as it exists today in iCal and then import that file into PlumLife.
After this import, if you make changes to your contacts from iCal, those changes will not display in PlumLife. Likewise, if you make changes to your contacts from PlumLife, they will not display in iCal.

So, we hope you'll just use PlumLife as your primary contact management system from now on.

SUGGESTION: It is recommended you import your contacts before your calendars to avoid creating duplicate contacts

To Import into PlumLife, follow the steps from the MY ACCOUNT page (find this in upper right corner of the screen) by selecting the button that is called "One Time Import of a Calendar" and has the iCal logo on it.
