Why does a calendar reminder open in edit mode when you select it. If you go to the calendar and open it you are presented with the information and the attachments. If you click on the reminder you must click on details and then you must select "Edit only this occurrence" or "Edit all occurrences" and then select "Attachments".

Why is there not an option to have the reminder open as it would if you selected it in the calendar?

I'm trying to list future events in the T-bird Calendar without including my numerous daily reminders (mostly when I'm supposed to take my meds). Is there a way to suppress their inclusion? Or is there a way to enter daily events as a separate class that won't show up in the standard future events list? Thank you.

For many years I have had a Thunderbird Calendar, and have a large number of Tasks set up in it. I have now decided it would be convenient to link it to my Google calendar, so that it also shows on my new Windows 11 machine and on my laptop. I've gone through the process described in the "Create new calendars" article, to link the calendars, and the Google calendar is now appearing in the Thunderbird calendar, but not vice versa. How do I get the Tasks in the Thunderbird calendar to appear in the Google calendar?

I am running Thunderbird 140.7.1esr and Firefox 147.03 on my Windows 10 machine, which I used to set up the link. My Windows 11 machine has the same Firefox build, but Thunderbird 147.0.1, and the Google calendar display is the same, but I haven't yet set up the Thunderbird calendar on the new machine.
