My Thunderbird calendar file is located on my organization's Nextcloud server. We just changed to a newer version of Nextcloud and moved everything to a new url, so my calendar updates no longer work. I need to edit the address of the calendar file. I open the Edit Calendar and can see the old url in the Location field. I can select and copy the contents of the Location field but I can't change it.

See edited screenshot

Thanks in advance for your help.

I recently switched to Thunderbird calendar and I really like it but I have just one question to make my calendar perfect.

When creatingan Event / Task Is there a way to isolate each Event / Task in their own box and fill color sollelction? When I go to print the calendar all that I see are the words. If I could color the boxes as I have done in the attachment (T-bird)from another calendar that I use to have, and the other attachment is printed from Thunderbird (T-bird-1)and it it would make it easier to see with bigger fonts and colored box.

Hello, I'm new to this Thunderbird I'm using a desktop computer with Win 10 and Office 2016. I have been having issues with outlook 2016, it keep asking for my credentials and I can't seem to be able to find any solutions so a friend recommended Thunderbird to me. I'm trying it and so far my emails are synchronized but not my calendar nor my address book. I cant seem to find where Thunderbird can sync with those two. I do not want to import into the app but sync like my iPhone is doing so if I enter an event in any of them it will show up in the other one. Pretty simple but I can not find this in the Thunderbird desktop app.

please help Kind regards Richard

Been using Thunderbird/Lightning for many years. In the latest update (115.10.1 (64 bit)), the EDIT button is not initially visible when I click on an event in my Calendar. In past releases, this edit button has always been visible in the pop-up window when I try to edit info in a New Event task. This happens SOME of the time, but not all. Any idea what changed, and is it possible to check out the code and change it back so when I double-click on an event, I see the edit button. At this time (not a big deal, but slows me down), when I go to edit an event, I have to move to a different monitor, resize the pop-up window so I can see the EDIT button, then finally click on it to edit the Event. In the past, the cursor immediately went to the EDIT button. Any info on changing this back the old way would be appreciated.

Hi there, I'd like to be able to export events as a simple .ics-file. This has various reasons (e.g. sharing with others without getting updates) and I have seen this being requested by many others before. I know there is a work-around if you copy an event and then paste it into a text editor, but this seems like an awfully crude way to do something that should be super simple. I think that would be simple yet very valueable addition. Kind regards

After the update to 115.12.2 (64-bit) installed, I made a couple of changes to tasks and TB went sideways and crashed, and continued to crash upon startup every time I restarted, even after a reboot. So, I copied a backup of my AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird directory onto the TB AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird dir. Now TB starts, but I have only Mail and I see no way to get Calendar/Tasks back. How do I do that?

I am using Thunderbird version 115.12.2 on Windows 10 and have set up about 36 different calendars. To tidy up a bit, I would like to hide all calendars AT ONCE and in the next step show each (separate) calendar INDIVIDUALLY. ONLY: HOW do I hide all calendars at once? Possibly accessible via extensions / add-ons? Which extensions would be recommended? Thanks for all your help.

I'm using thunderbird 115.10.1 on Ubuntu Linux. I've set up a second calendar and associated it with an email account hosted by Polaris Mail. That email address has worked fine within thunderbird for everything else for a long time, but I only recently associated it with a calendar. When I get a meeting invite, for example from a gmail user, and accept that invite, selecting "send a response now", no message ever arrives at the email of the inviter and no email ends up in any of my folders (drafts or sent). It is like nothing happens. The event *is* accepted and added to the calendar, but no respose is created or sent. I have another email account and calendar and meeting acceptances and responses seem to work fine.

I've looked at all the settings I can find and they seem appropriate and analogous to those with the working email/calendar. The correct email address appears in the calendar properties opened by right-clicking on the Calendar and selecting properties.

Any help? Thanks.

Hello,

I'm kicking the tires on this and the biggest obstacle for me right now is that when I view the calendar in a week view, the day starts at midnight. I would like to hide midnight to 6am.

I followed these steps, that did not work:

1. Navigate to the hamburger menu in the upper right corner. 2. Select settings. 3. In the calendar tab, I changed day starts to 6am, and day ends to 9pm.

There is no way to save this, so I assume it just works. However, when I navigate back to the calendar, nothing has changed. The day still starts at midnight.

Am I possibly looking in the wrong place? Is there a way to customize this as I've described?

Thanks for any help.

I'm setting up TB for the first time with multiple email and calendar accounts. Some are gmail / google, and others o365.

The primary TB account's calendar doesn't seem to be syncing fully. It's an o365. account. But the email is working.

I added an event on my Outlook for Android on my phone. Its appearing in OWA, and in New Outlook on my computer (so it did sync from mobile Android device to server, and from server to my New Outlook on the Windows desktop). But its not appearing in TB.

Not sure what to check or what the issue might be.

Also, I'd love to replace Outlook Android on my mobile with what I think is K-9. But can't get the same account referenced here to connect to the outbound server.

Welcome any help, and appreciate you all doing this collaborative work.

Hi Everyone!

I am currently on Thunderbird 115.10.1 (64-bit) and for a few days now, I can't open the calendar tab. The "Today Pane" is working and showing events though.

When going to "View" the items "Calendar" and "Tasks" are greyed out though.

Any idea on how to get the calendar back? The company will move us all to Exchange and Outlook soon, so I thought I might "survive", but it is pretty impractical have to open my calendars separately in the browser. You only notice how often you use something, when you don't have it. ;-)
