Can't dismiss sync'ed calendar events from Yahoo calendar

timhoward

I was finally able to get Lightning to sync with my Yahoo calendar. That worked great until appt reminders started popping up and Lightning can't dismiss them. I can click the "Dismiss" buttons but it doesn't do anything.

I'm running Win 7, and Thunderbird 45.2.0 with Lightning plugin.

Any suggestions?

how did you add your yahoo calendar? It sounds like you have added a read only ical file.

You are correct. I checked the Properties and It was Read Only. I could uncheck but when I rescyned it came back as Read Only again.

I deleted it and went back and reinstalled teh Yahoo calendar properly and it works great. Thank you!
