Apparently there is a file size limit, of about 1MB or 1.5MB on import files. The solution is to manually split up the .ics file into multiple parts.
Basically, the format of an .ics file is
To split it up into multiple parts, you need to keep the
BEGIN:VCALENDAR
andcalendar settings
andEND:VCALENDAR
, and split up the VEVENTs into multiple files. So, you can create a file 1.ics that hasand another file 2.ics that has
Now import 1.ics, then import 2.ics, and you'll be good. You might need to split up into more than 2 files; split it up into files that are each smaller than 1MB.
