And what happened when you tried to import the file -- error messages, other symptoms?

The error message I get when importing a Mozilla (5.0) ics file is
"vCalendar/iCalendar import failed. The input file may be corrupt." I have
also tried comma and tab separated (Mozilla did not create any csv or txt
export file, so I had to convert the ics file) and others. The csv and txt
imports appeared to be working, but no data was imported. I was prompted to
"Map custom fields," but cancelled as I only used standard fields.
I was able to import some calendar schedule entries by importing a vcs file,
though the recurring entries did not import as recurring, but as single
events (start date only), and none of the task list entries could import
(Mozilla does not seem to have an export function for these, so the original
ics file has to be used). I imagine the problem is on Mozilla's end, since
their calendar has a lot of problems, but if anyone can think of a way to
import all the entries, including the task list (so I never have to use
Mozilla calendar again), that would be appreciated.
Thanks.
