Running Thunderbird 115.6.1 (64-bit) on Windows 10. I can add an EVENT to any of my 5 calendars in the dropdown. But when I try to add a TASK, only 4 calendars are offered. Naturally, it's the missing calendar (xxx@gmail.com) I need!

Suggestions would be deeply appreciated.

Thanks, Jeff

Hi, I'm trying to figure out what is the correct procedure (if any) for migrating calendar/task data between different profiles WITHOUT using the UI (since upgrading to version 115, Thunderbird's UI became irresponsive when started with my existing profile , so I'm no longer be able to access my data nor to trigger the export procedure via the UI.

Can anyone point me to the right direction?

Thanks in advance for any answer.

Specific 'Calendar' topic, but could also be considered to be about updating (improving) the Thunderbird controls/options/addons.

Is this a Feature Request, per say? If so, is it in the right place here? If not, where to put this?

Platform: Windows 10. Issue: Thunderbird (Lightning/Calendar) keeps aggressively stealing focus, i.e. putting the Reminder window on top of whatever else I am doing. This is incredibly annoying and unproductive. The only option is to completely disable Reminders, which defeats the purpose of course. See also, for example, https://www.reddit.com/r/Thunderbird/comments/185c727/how_can_i_prevent_the_reminders_window_from/. Requirement: I would like to still hear the Reminder sound, and it would be great if the application also 'gets highlighted' (in orange) on the Taskbar (like many applications that have something new going on, but do not immediately push themselves to the foreground) to get a visual Notification, as well.

In any case, this overly dominant behaviour of the application should NOT persist.

Would it kill ya to add a simple link to Google Maps (or even other map sites), if a calendar event contains an address? I use the Calendar a lot and make sure that I have addresses associated with events. This allows Google and Android Auto to pop up a notification asking me if I'm going to XYZ event. I then tap Navigate and off I go. But sometimes when I'm on my desktop I look at a calendar event and wonder where exactly I'm going to be driving to and I have to open the event and copy and paste the address into a browser set on Google Maps. It'd be way more convenient to just tap a link on the TB event notification or maybe in the right-click menu of the event on the Calendar or alongside of the address in the event details.

Been wondering about this for years and finally got around to submitting the request here.

I use Calendly.com for scheduling my meetings. I'll receive a meeting confirmation email when someone books, and linked from that email is an .ics file I can import to Thunderbird calendar. This all works fine except that meetings imported don't respect the default reminder setting. No reminder is set at all for these meetings - I have to edit each event manually to append the reminder to match what I have saved in the Reminder Defaults section of Settings (15 mins).

Meetings added to my calendar in other ways (i.e. an invitation direct to my inbox) respect and apply the 15min default. This places the blame on Calendly so I looked at the .ics files I'm getting from there and find no TRIGGER reference at all. I imported an unrelated sample .ics file with the TRIGGER explicitly defined and this works, but in the absence of a TRIGGER reference in the Calendly files, my expectation is that the default reminder time would be applied.

Any advice on what may be happening?

Thanks

In every version from 118 beta to the latest, the Calendar View Events filter option is limited to max 1 year. In previous versions, there was a filter option to view All events. I need this option in filter to be re-instated because 1 year is not enough. I want to see all events to manage my calendar more effectively.

Is there any way to select other than the "home" calendar as standard? Have tried to change order in the calendar setting, but when I accept a meeting invitation it always place the meeting in the home calendar. I would like to select the syncronized Google calendar.

The syncronization with Google calender works perfect when manual enter something.

Best regards /Mike

Google Calendar on iphone - I want to have it available on Thunderbird on my PC. Advice please. Can't seem to find any comprehensible instructions.

IanM PS I am 83 years old

I used to have 3 calendars. now everything shows in one calendar named 'calendar'. how do I get to display one calendar at a time. In the current display under column 'calendar, name' I see 3 different names and the items in the display are pink, green, and yellow. I think at some time I hit 'synchronize' by mistake.

Thanks for your help.

This is probably not the best place to ask. But I would like to know how thunderbird parses icalendars. Is there is place I can see this file?

I am working on a project that uses [https://sabre.io/baikal/] Baikal

You can do a call that gets the icalendar properties but I am having trouble finding a library that can handle this. I have looked into two:

This is probably old but kind of works, however fails with malformed bad ics calendar properties link text

This one looks a little more complicated, and I think this is from some folks at thunderbird working the calendar from what I read. however fails with malformed bad ics calendar properties link text

What I do not get, is that the same ics for instance I am testing that is malformed, Thunderbird reads it like a champ and it is in my calendar. But when I try it in my own APP project, I can't get these front end libs to read it properly.

anyways, if anyone has some info on how the folks at thunderbird parse shared calendars I would love to read up on that lead.

Thanks! happy holidays!

Hi,

I have several individuals stored in my Contacts for whom I've loaded their birthdates. I would like to receive reminders and/notifications in Thunderbird when these birthdates are approaching, say like 10 days out. Is there a way to configure Contacts and/or Calendar to get these reminders/notifications in advance of these birthdates? If so, how?

thanks, Tom

I recently updated to Thunderbird 115.6.0 on Linux. After doing so I can no longer add events to my calendar. In the error console I get the message, "An error occurred when writing to the calendar ... Could not find definition for Eastern Standard Time". This seems like a rather odd error. How do I fix it?

Wenn ich den Wochenkalender ausdrucke erscheint nie der Wochentag (Montag, Dienstag usw.), obwohl diese auf dem Bildschirm in der Wochenansicht zu sehen sind. Leider finde ich keine Möglichkeit, dies zu ändern. Können sie mir weiterhelfen? Mit freundlichen Grüßen Gerhard

I'm not sure exactly when it happened, but pretty recently, my calendar started showing 6 weeks (in 6 rows) instead of less (I think it was 4).

How do I show less weeks at once (so more of each day's pane is bigger and shows more of itself), like it used to be?

I have Thunderbird for Mac v 115.6.0

Thanks, Ted

Calendar page does not fit on display window. Display is set at 100% (recommended) This was not a problem on previous versions. Day columns are wider. Can not find a way to adjust.

Hello,

I run a. Thunderbird v 78.14.0 (64-bit) on a Macbook Pro 13"mid 2012 with Mac OS 10.10.5 (Yosemite) b. Thunderbird v 115.5.1 (64-bit) on a Macbook Pro 15" mid 2012 with macOS 10.15.7 (Catalina)

How do I make happen, that I sync the calendars in both Thunderbirds constantly, i.o.w. instantly (like for example the iMAP emails do)??

I find the option for new calendars: "On the network" ... Which network is here meant??? In the help there is not much info about it. I am not using and will not use Google or any kind of "social media" (!)

Can I use my own homepage host (which has some webspace left) in order to sync? Or for example an online storage like mega.nz ?

Or could the both macs just sync the thunderbird calendars just via WiFi/WLAN directly (AirDrop ?) or via Bluetooth ??

It would be so great if calendar sync would be as easy as the emails do!

Thanks for you advice!

Best wishes, Thomas

Something changed at some point in time with the calendar file. When I started using Thunderbird I was able to set up entries in the calendar file and give them names and an associated colour. I can't seem to do that any longer. Eg. I set up entries for Birthdays which showed on the calendar as purple and Anniversaries where green. I can't do that anymore. Was that ability removed at some time?

Another situation I came across was importing .ics files. The method changed and now you have to open a file. What it does is ask where you want to put the contents, ie as an Event or a Task. I tell it where I want it put . But when I check the entry it shows as the .ics file and not as an Event or Task. Then I have a terrible time trying to remove it. Nothing happens when I tell the program that the Event/Task is completed. HELP!

Hello I am having issues with my calendar option not retaining the events that I have entered. I have never had this issue before. I have no clue how to get it to retain the entered events. Any direction would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Monique

if I schedule a meeting locally for 9am some attendees receive the meeting scheduled at 8am (1 hour earlier than actual). I have checked my thunderbird date and time settings and they are correct. The attendees claim their settings are correct but between the 2 systems (Thunderbird and Outlook) there is an hour discrepancy. This is causing clients to miss my meetings. Please assist.
