I need to be able to export a calendar to an external person. I have
copied the public folder to my calendar, but when I try to export to
a csv file, it just using 100% of my processor and shows the
transferring files icon but it just doesn't complete.


If this external person also uses Outlook, the approach I'd take would be
to create a new PST (FileNewOutlook Data File), then copy the public
folder Calendar to that PST, and send that PST to the external person by
whatever way is expedient. It can be mailed, for example, but you'd have
to close it in Outlook first, stop and restart Outlook, zip it (or change
its file type to something other than ".pst") and then send it. The
recipient can extract it from the zip archive or rename its extension back
to ".pst", then open it in their Outlook with FileOpenOutlook Data File.
If you both use the same Outlook version, you both use different versions
but both are Outlook 2002 or earlier or Outlook 2003 or later, or your
recipient uses a later version, there should be no issues. If you use
Outlook 2007 or 2003 and your recipient uses an earlier version, then
you'd have to make sure the PST you create is a 97-2002 PST.
