Why does my file upload fail?

Common reasons for upload failures include:

Incorrect file format - Ensure the file is an HTML file saved from UC Davis Schedule Builder

Corrupted file - Unstable network connection during save may cause file corruption

File too large - File size exceeds the 8MB limit

Incomplete page content - Ensure the Schedule Builder page contains your registered or waitlisted courses

Solution: Revisit Schedule Builder, ensure stable network connection, and save the page again.
How do I use the generated calendar files?

The generated .ics files can be imported into various calendar applications:

Google Calendar - Import via web interface or mobile app

Apple Calendar - Import on Mac or iPhone

Outlook - Import via desktop or web version

Other calendar apps - Most applications supporting .ics format can import the files

Tip: After importing, you can edit course times and add reminders in your calendar application.
