In the Lightning calendar, all my events suddenly were deleted.
My calendar (Lightening add-on) had my appointments scheduled and listed for the next four months. Suddenly all of my events were deleted, and to my knowledge, I didn't do anything to make this happen. All previous events going back 4 years were deleted also. I have nothing now. Can someone help me?

Having mismatched Thunderbird and Lightning versions make the calendar data disappear so guessing what version you had is not helpful. Maybe Lightning was late updating and when it finally did your data returned.
Thanks for this, I appreciate it. You may be right, as T-bird updated to V. 52 shortly after the data reappeared. It could be that Lightening was in between updating, as you suggest.

Was this in an online calendar? Is it still subscribed?
What version of Thunderbird are you using? What version of lightning? This is the symptom of an unmatched pair.

Thanks. This wasn't an online calendar, but on my computer with the program.
Update on this issue: I started 'reconstructing' the calendar, but then suddenly all my events re-appeared. Although I was happy about this, I still don't want it to happen again. Any suggestions?

When this happened, I was using version 48.8.0. Lightening is updated incrementally, and so must have been the latest version.
