I have issues with an python script. When I run it I has this error:

 ./ics2owncloud.py
  File "./ics2owncloud.py", line 46
    if r.status_code == 500 and 'Sabre\VObject\Recur\NoInstancesException' in r.text:
                                   ^
SyntaxError: (unicode error) 'unicodeescape' codec can't decode bytes in position 19-20: malformed \N character escape

This is the script: https://github.com/buzz/ics2owncloud.py

I used python3 not 2.7 at the original script.

Try changing all of the \ to \\, or put an r in front of the string, e.g., 

if r.status_code == 500 and r'Sabre\VObject\Recur\NoInstancesException' in r.text:
                         #  ^ that right there

In general, though, running Python 2.7 code with Python 3 (or vice versa) will almost certainly not work! They are not directly compatible. Stick with 2.7 if that's what your scripts were written for.
