Migration of evolution

Asked by Jan Sander

Transfer of Evolution information"

I'm trying to upgrade my PC with larger disks and migrate to UBUBNTU Breezy from Mandriva.
How do I transfer calendar & addreess book information? Email files worked OK by copying the .evolution folder but in "contact" area only one group (personal) came across and none of the calendar data.

Any advice appreciated.

The calendar you should be able to right click and then Save to Disk. This will export it so you can then easily import it. You can do something simular with the contact, however I'm not 100% certain how to do it for all contacts at once (if just one at a time you can right click on them).

This only works however if you have access to the Mandriva box still.

I'm suprised that copying the .evolution folder didn't work.

Can you help with this problem?
