Lack of Sync for Contacts & Calendar

Active Sync 16+ is now in force and Thunderbird has lost the sync via TBsync, so contacts and calendar syncing is now dead, unless TBsync is updated quickly, seems unlikely from reading their website. TB has advised that contacts and calendar are still on a dream list and no date for implementation is known. So TB is no longer a substitute for users wanting to escape Outlook. I am a long time user of TB and a donator, so why have you not pre-planned the inclusion of contacts and calendar sooner or even included TBsync into the code and kept its syncing ability uptodate.

TB with just email sync is no different to many email apps that come with laptop and tablets, so I may as well revert to using in my case Apple Mail.

See https://github.com/jobisoft/TbSync/issues/781#issuecomment-4257667440

This worked here with TB 140ESR/W11.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I will look at the various links and see if anything works for me as I have the same error code on none compatible with version 16 active sync. I find it a bit annoying for an everyday user to have to be tech savy to look at doing ones own personal fix.

Will see what happens and get back to you.

I have just updated the .xpi file for AS 16.1 on my Mac OS and all seems to be back to normal and working. Fingers crossed for a long run with out glitches.

Thanks for the initial advice.
