I switched from iCloud to Google calendar. I already transferred all my calendars via export/import to Google Calendar. Now I'd like to transfer my reminders from iCal/iCloud to Google Calendar. How can I do this?

From what I understand, Reminders are not transferrable. Each service programs them differently and there is no way (other than copying/pasting text) to easily transfer them. Hope this helps.

This script will at least help with the export from Reminders:
#!/usr/bin/osascript
tell application "Reminders"
set todo_accounts to every account
-- accounts have lists. loop thru accounts to get their lists.
repeat with i from 1 to length of todo_accounts
tell account i
set todo_lists to get every list
-- lists have reminders. loop thru lists to get their reminders
repeat with j from 1 to length of todo_lists
tell list j
set todos to (get reminders)
-- if there are no reminders for a list, then ignore the list
if length of todos is greater than 0 then
-- Write out the name of the list
do shell script "echo " & (quoted form of (get name)) & " >> ~/Desktop/todos.txt"
-- loop thru the reminders to get properties
repeat with k from 1 to length of todos
set this_todo to item k of todos
if (this_todo is not completed) then
do shell script "echo [ ] " & (quoted form of (get name of this_todo)) & " >> ~/Desktop/todos.txt"
end if
end repeat
end if
end tell
end repeat
end tell
end repeat
end tell
