Has there been any progress on this issue? I am willing to help troubleshoot or code if someone can point me in the right direction.

Thanks,
Sarah

most of the code is in:

CRM/Event/Page/ICalendar.php
CRM/Utils/ICalendar.php
templates/CRM/Core/Calendar/ICal.tpl

We've spent way too much time trying to get it working without any success. You might want to compare CiviCRM's ical output with meetup's ical output. The meetup calendars seem to work in google. That might help you out.

I was able to reproduce the error from Google using my own PHP iCalendar file. ( created with the output from CiviEvent). I was able to correct the issue in my PHP file by removing charset=$charset; profile=\"ICalendar\" from the content header.   

If I fix the content header to:  header( "Content-Type: $content_type;" );  then Google will accept my URL.

Could you try fixing the file at /CRM/Utils/ICalendar.php ? I do not have the latest patch applied to CiviCRM.
