Installing the Andrew Calendar Client

Important Note: If you are a DSP (Desktop Support Program) client OR if your machine is Active Directory managed (you sign on with User Name, Password and Realm) DO NOT install this version of the Andrew Calendar Client. If you install the software yourself, you will not be able to logon to your computer after installation.  Your departmental administrator will handle the upgrade for you in the near future.

Read the Important Information section, then follow the instructions appropriate to your operating system.

Important information before you begin:

  1. In this version of Andrew Calendar, the address book feature has been enabled for new installations. If this is NOT the first time that you have ever installed the calendar client and you wish to use the address book feature, you will need to enable the address book option in your preferences; for help, see the Andrew Calendar documentation.
  2. If you use the Andrew Calendar Sync for Palm software (previously called CorporateSync) be sure to update both applications (Andrew Calendar for desktops and Andrew Calendar Sync) at the same time.

Windows Vista and XP+ Operating Systems

  1. Remove any previous versions of Andrew Calendar software first. To do this, click Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove programs. Scroll down until you see the item for your previous version (either CorporateTime or Oracle Calendar) and select the option to remove the program.

  2. Remove any previous versions of MIT Kerberos for Windows. Click Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove programs. Scroll down until you see MIT Kerberos for Windows and select the option to remove the program. Do NOT reboot your computer.

  3. Download the appropriate Andrew Calendar installer.
  4. Once you've downloaded the installation program, double-click on it to run it.
  5. Through the installation program, simply accept the default responses. The program will pause at different points throughout the process. Be sure to let the program run until it has completed. An "InstallShield Wizard Completed" dialog box appears. Click Finish. Then a "Finished" dialog box. Click Close.
  6. Reboot your computer.
  7. When you first launch Andrew Calendar you may be prompted, "Andrew Calendar is not set as your default Calendar application. Would you like to register Andrew Calendar to be your default Calendar? Note: if you accept, "ics" and "vcs" files will be associated to Andrew Calendar."

    Answer YES if you DO NOT use Outlook for Calendar information. 

MacOS 10.4+

  1. Be sure that you have the latest version of Kerberos for Mac running on your machine. If you do not have this application, you can download them from the My Andrew web service.
