I was getting the same Cannot verify or add the calendar error as you guys. I found the solution to be a two step process. Change the https to webcal like stated above, but also change any @ signs that have been encoded as %40 in the html code back to the @ sign. Wirked great for me and changes I make in google calendar are now syncing to outlook.

If you have the error “Cannot verify or add the internet calendar to Outlook”, please see the link below for advice which might help if you enforce HTTPS for your Google Calendar service:

Yes, but how do you get your subscribed calenderas to show up in the To-Do Bar?

Hi the above method did not work for me until I tried it a different way.

The Google iCal link starts with http:// Microsoft seems to want webcal:// . At any rate adding the calendar kept failing with the error ” Cannot verify or ad the Internet Calendar in Outlook. Verify the link is a valid calendar lin: ”

until I simply pasted it as a URL in my web browser. As soon as I did that, Outlook grabbed the calendar and we were all set, great !

Daniel,

Your solution is the only one that actually DOES WORK and it updates nicely. Big thanks for that!

Google Sync tool does not work for me but I’m just one of thousands who have got an issue with that. Google guys always say on the forums that they are ‘working on it’ – whatever it means as it is taking forever.

Thanks Afzar – I was having trouble with the “Cannot Verify or Add…” error. Switching the prefix to Webcal worked, and I don’t have to change my Share settings. I use the Google Sync option for my primary calendar, but if you have created more than one calendar in Google, this doesn’t sync them all. Adding the Private ICAL helps.

Make sure you share your calendar to be public before you do this, otherwise, outlook 2007 will throw an error message
