Question? How does one save a back up of google calendar?
I am disabled, I share my google calendar with hubby. If google were to have a melt down, we have no other calendar. So how does one back it up, or can one back up a google calendar to a hard copy?
Have a friend who lost data on her phone and fortunately she keeps a calendar that you write on still, so was able to see what they were doing when. With my physical health I can no longer write.
ideas please? Saved contacts just on computer and can print them but don't want to as not in any cloud. So surely one can do this with google calendars?
thanks,
Belinda
