Hello first sorry if this has been posted before and I missed it.

Been looking for an alternative email client since Microsoft is changing over to their clunky web mail app in windows.

Been trying out Thunderbird (version 115) added my Outlook/Microsoft account which works fine email wise but the calendar does not show up. I can add the same account or my google account to say EM mail or mailbird and the calendar shows/syncs up s in those programs effortlessly.

Does this not work the same in Thunderbird or do I need some extra plug ins? I seen trying to share and export the ics file but I just want to sync it like any other program.

Thanks for your help

Hi, I have multiple calendard synced with caldav, everything works fine. But from last two month most due events are removed (hidden??) from thunderbird calendar, I think after dismiss them, but not sure...

I can sync my calendar without problem. In my caldav server and mobile devices this events are there, so I think they are removed o hidden in thunderbird, but can´t find a reason/option for that, is there any?

Thanks

Thunderbird 102.12.0 (64-bit) Arch Linux

Using fastmail as my email provider and their caldav server. I can create and generally edit calendar events. Changing the calendar itself in the event appears to save but the color of the calendar and the edit doesn't reflect the change. This is the same manually using (or not) the synchronize button. There is no read only setting on for this caldav calendar.

Hello

My TB data spans decades, for emails, tasks & events [oh, & also contacts]. I've lost count of however many TB iterations / versions it's lived thru. It began life yonks ago in Win7, & lives now, for many years, in Linux.

For at least a couple of years, my Calendar has had this annoying problem. For many Events, but not all, it is just impossible to directly duplicate them. Both Ctrl-C Ctrl-V, & RMB-Copy RMB-Paste, simply do NOTHING [for it seems like the majority (but not entirety) of my Events].

Research lead me to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2015334 [my distro is #Arch not #Fedora, but IMO that's irrelevant]. I was galled to see that bug report was closed without action or solution; also that it was raised only with Redhat not actually Thunderbird.

In exasperation, recently i conceived this inefficient albeit effective workaround: for the target Event, RMB-ConvertTo-Task, then edit said new task to desired date for the intended duplicate, then convert said task to a new Event... then correct all the text formatting that was lost by this silly indirect process.

I've wondered if possibly the database has become corrupted somehow due to surviving all the historical TB version changes, to cause this duplication problem. So last night i thought i'd Export the Tasks & Events ICS file, then Import it into a clean TB profile elsewhere [in some vague hope that this process might magically "fix" any putative data corruption]. The Export nominally succeeded, being an 81 MB file. The Import failed every time, with the error msg per pic.

What is a frustrated TB user now supposed to do, please? [btw, current version is 102.10.1 (64-bit), in ArchLinux KDE Plasma].

I am looking for a way where my entries and invites from my work email and calendar, to be viewable when I am out of the office, on my iPhone. I know there is a way to link calendar entries from Gmail and iCal to be viewable on Thunderbird. But trying to find a way where my Thunderbird entries, can be viewed away from my desktop.

If this even possible?

Last month, my caldav accounts all stopped syncing. I get a n error stating (NS_ERROR_UNKNOWN_HOST). I am using TBsync, and have multiple calendars set up for sharing on our webhost, and all worked perfectly for about the last year. I have tried up-dating Thunderbird, reverting to an older copy of Thunderbird, running Thunderbird in troubleshooting mode, un-loading and re-loading the extensions, performing a system restore on my PC to a date before the trouble started, basically everything I could think of. Below is a portion of the error message I find in the developer tools error reporting:

[calCachedCalendar] replay action failed: <unknown>, uri=https://mail

Can you help troubleshoot this issue? We use Thunderbird on our department for crew scheduling, and are suffering without this feature being operational. Thank you, JMB

Hello!

Is there any plans in future releases to add native Exchange Web Services functionality for syncing of calendars?

Currently the only way to sync your calendar and meetings if you use EWS is to use tbsync and excange provider both by the same author (john bieling bless your heart)

https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-us/thunderbird/addon/tbsync/ https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-us/thunderbird/addon/eas-4-tbsync/?src=dp-dl-othersby

These are 3rd party extensions and therefore if there's a major new version of thunderbird... they're broken for a period of time.

I am a linux user, so my only other option is Evolution Mail, which is not bad, but it's nowhere near as good as thunderbird.

it does however have an EWS plugin that is natively developed along with it. I know Jason Evangelho works for you now... I know we've got a linux guy in there... (love you man)

Hope you do it! it'd basically make it the best email client in the linux community, just sayin'

In our company the Thunderbird calendar meeting invitations are off by an hour.

Refer to screenshots where it shows the current time in Windows is 7pm but the time in Thunderbird is 8pm.

Condition found: Thunderbird time is 8pm. In the screenshot with the calendar view you can see in the bottom right hand corner Windows indicates it's 7pm but the red time indicator in the Thunderbird calendar view is 8pm.

Desired condition: Thunderbird time should match Windows time of 7pm.

Please note that: Mexico observed summertime daylight saving time starting in 1996. In late 2022, the nation's clocks "fell back" for the last time, in restoration of permanent standard time. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dayligh.../Daylight_saving_time]

Things tried: Installed the latest Thunderbird on fresh Windows machine. Googled: [Search]

Does anyone see what I might be doing wrong?
