Happy Monday! Had a couple of inquiries from users on Friday experiencing difficulties with the sharing functions of our conference SCHED, specifically the mobile versions and the iCal sync. Have been in touch with SCHED tech support and they report that the mobile versions should be working fine and that the issues with the iCal sync function were fixed earlier this weekend. If anyone is having specific difficulties with SCHED features please feel free to email me directly (not the entire listserv please) and I'll try to assist you with troubleshooting the problem.
