Thunderbird Community Forum

For the last two days, every time I start Thunderbird, a pop-up requests me to log in into Google Calendar. I have followed what little advice I can find:

• Unsubscribed/deleted all calendars
• Deleted all Gmail Accounts
• Deleted all saved passwords, and re-entered them only for my current email accounts.

How do I get rid of this irritating and unnecessary pop-up? I have updated to v128.14 but the problem persists.

Thanks in advance.

Using Thunderbird 128.5.0esr (64-bit) on 128.5.0esr (64-bit). In calendar view, I see all my appointments with the background colour of the calendar they are in (see attached). In my inbox view, I have the Events tab open at the right. All day events have the background colour of the appropriate calendar, but ones with timings have a dot. (see attached). How do I make ALL calendar events have the background colour of the associated calendar in the mail events tab??

Some of my calendar reminders are not appearing. At least one in particular is still showing. This is a daily reminder. Other reminders whether for a set period or just a one off do not appear.

I am using Version 140.1 on Firefox.

I FOUND no close TOPIC.

Google calendar allows color-coding of events - but the display is highly inadequate. T-bird 128 calendar apparently HAS no option to color events. But events are FAR easier to see WHEN color-highlighted. Would this be a difficult option??

I successfully subscribed to an online .ics file but I found the resulting calendar entries inadequate and I want to unsubscribe but I can't figure out how to do that. I've tried searching for instructions but haven't found any.

My calendar has disappeared. I have years of important dates that are lost. . . say it ain't so, Mozilla! WTF. My "add-ons" show nothing installed. Are you kidding me? They broke Thunderbird?

Get Messages doesn't work anymore. I created another profile with the same email address and it works fine. The issue is that I lost all my info, addresses, and most importantly the Calendar. I've been messing around with this all in trying to import that info into the new profile, but failing. I copied calendar-data to the new profile, but it doesn't show up. Can someone please help! Thanks, Paul

Hi, I am trying to export a calendar from a Windows 10 PC into a Lubuntu PC. The exported Home.ics file is about 217KB. At stage 4 in the import process (which shows the file name correctly) a message in red says "No importable items found in the file" . In the main area it says "Loading items" but nothing happens. Am I missing something here? Thanks

Hi,

Someone sends me a calendar appointment for 11th of May at 16:30-18:30 and another at 18:30:20:30. I accept these appointments. In my calendar, they correctly display at these times.

When I close and re-open Thunderbird, the first appointment is now scheduled for 12th of May, but the second is fine. When I close and re-open Thunderbird again, the second appointment is now scheduled for 12th of May as well.

The times are completely different too.

I'm using Thunderbird 138 from the Arch Linux repositories but I've also tried the Flatpak package to no avail. I've tried setting my Timezone manually and using my System timezone to no avail.

GNOME Calendar, which is also synced to my Caldav server, displays the appointments at the correct day and time. The web interface for my mail server also displays correctly.

It's only Thunderbird that screws it up time and time again.

This has been going on for years and it is driving me insane. I can't use my calendar with Thunderbird because I keep thinking my appointments are at the wrong time!

Send help.

Hello, I want to change first day of the week to Monday (who on earth would have Sunday as the fist work day??) Problem: All instructions online are useless since there is no "Options" / no "Preferences" / in Settings there is no "Calendar" or anything referring to Calendar. Under Settings there is only General, Composition, Privacy & Security, Chat and Export for Mobile. Nothing for Calendar. Also in Calendar view ... nothing to change days order. All online articles seem to be outdated (2021 and older)and don't apply anymore. Someone advised the reboot Thunderbird ... ? How to do that? Just close it down at the X?

Please help.

Thanks

Hi,

I configured my account using the server's IMAP service. Every time I open Thunderbird, it asks me for the password of the calendar service of that IMAP service. But it doesn't have a calendar service. Even if it has, I don't want to use it.

I looked everywhere in the settings page, but could not find a way to disable it.

Why the app keeps asking me for the calendar service's password and how to disable it?

Thanks.

The today pane shows the incorrect date details. Today it shows Thursday 23 March 2018. Today is Friday 23 March 2018. When I open the calendar it shows today is Thursday 22 March 2018 and the date in the panel at the bottom right hand corner shows 22 and not 23.

I updated from TB 115 to 116. I had to re-enter email and calendar (to Google) connection info. Calendar does not display. Email and Contacts seem alright. Is Provider still needed?

Not sure how it happened but I've suddenly lost access to my Google calendar. On the bar on the left side of my calendar display screen there is a list of two calendars, Home and my email address, which I think is a Google calendar. Even though I check "Show all calendars" it does not show my email address calendar. And if I click on only to show my email address calendar it shows nothing at all. On my Pixel cell phone I can still see both the Home calendar and the Google calendar, so I guessing Thunderbird has just lost the link, although it shows a googleapi address when I click on properties. When I accept a Zoom calendar listing it has always and still shows up on the Home calendar. This seems most mysterious. Anyone have an idea of what I should do? Is there anyway I can rebuild the link to the Google calendar?

I have been very happy using Thunderbird to access the email account of my volunteer position, I have always used the Email, Calendar and Task feature. I have the automatic updates setup on Thunderbird and until recently had no issues at all, until the last update. When Thunderbird first started with the newest update the calendar details were visible and then Thunderbird disabled the Calendar and Task and no matter how many time I click the Enable button or edit the properties to say enable Thunderbird immeadiately sets it back to Disabled. I have uninstalled Thunderbird, and relinstalled an older version - problem there doesn't seem to be a profile to match, so I just kept manually updating Thunderbird to a newer update until the absolute latest, but there were issues with the profiles again. I then uninstalled and installed the latest version available directly from the website and was able to get another profile to work for my local folders - I had saved some docs locally to conserve disk space on the email server. But no matter what I cannot get the calendar to work at all. There are no posts that cover this particular situation. Any idea how to fix this???? Thank you to anyone that offers assistance with this issue.

Greetings all!

Thunderbird version is 1.52.0

Since this morning (8:00 CET) I have to enter password for my google calendar every time I start Thunderbird. No matter what authentication options I choose, calendar manager keeps asking me to authenticate. "Don't ask again" is turned on. Gmail is set up as OAuth for both incoming and outgoing servers, and it works fine.

Things I've tried since:

- Removed legacy connection in password manager, when I was using IMAP to connect to Gmail - Revoked OAuth permission from google account for Calendar and from Thunderbird password manager - Unsubscribed from calendars and added them again after restarting Thunderbird

I don't know what more to do. Also, I don't know what happened, really, as it worked properly last night.

I have several different local calendars set up in my Thunderbird. I want to unsubscribe to a specific one. When I select "Unsubscribe from Selected Calendar" from the Events and Tasks drop down, the Calendar selected is not the one I want to subscribe from. How do I select the Calendar I want to unsubscribe from prior to selecting that menu option. I have searched through the forums and have found references to opening a Calendar tab and right clicking on the left pane to select a Calendar. When I right click on the Calendar tab, I just get the options to Open in New tab or close the current tab. I'm not understanding something and I'd appreciate any clarification on this step. I am including a screen shot that shows the Unsubscribe screen. The calendar that is selected is my Google calendar, but I don't want to unsubscribe from Google. I want to unsubscribe from a duplicate local calendar. How do I do that?

 Thanks!

Updated to 148.0 this morning and now none of my google calendars are population the calendar. I am clueless as to why. Tried deleting them and re-adding them in - Not working. If this can't be fixed I am done with Thunderbird. Kind of sick of everything breaking with updates with no warnings.

I've had thunderbird for years, for the task component. It's wonderful. I got a new computer, but now have lost all my recurring tasks. I saved the profile on our network but cannot locate where to put in the path so import the task file into thunderbird. I did not find it in the community forums; so I must not be asking the question right. Any assistance is helpful.

Thank you
