Description

[A.]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120122 Firefox/3.0.5
Build Identifier: 0.9 I don't know exactly, but downloaded it today

If I import the Old calendar (ics)  from Sunbird 0.2 , that does not work.
Instead it shows the Following error:

Unable to read from file:K\MozillaCalendars\CalenadarDataFile1.ics
[Execption... "Component returned failure code: 0x8000ffff(NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED)
[nsIScripableUnicodeConverter.convertFromByteArray]" nsresul: "0x8000ffff
(NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED)" location: "JS frame ::
file:///C:/Programme/Mozilla%20Sunbird/components/calItemModule.js ->
file:///C:/Programme/Mozilla%20Sunbird/js/calIcsParser.js :: ip_parserFromStream :: line 185" data:
no]

How can I ever get this ICS File working?
I need the data of the file .

The error message could indicate that the ics file is not UTF-8 encoded.

Probably an utf8 error, yes.
