Recent Thunderbird auto-update to 128.1.1esr (64 bit). Now unable to search past events in Calendar. Find Events now relates only to current or future events. Previous to update I had the option to search 'All' which meant I could easily locate previous entries in Calendar, which I use as a diary and aide memoire. Settings provide no solution. Am I able to revert to a previous version kitted out with the 'All' option, perhaps? Please help. Diolch yn fawr i chi.

Hi,

The uploaded image shows the problem. When I first open Tbird and the Reminder popup opens, all reminders look normal - black text on a white background. As soon as I do anything, in Tbird or another application, the top reminder gets a very dark blue background, making it unreadable.

This has been going on since the release before 128 (124?). I waited until the next release in case it was just 124. Clearly, it isn't. I have opened Tbird in Troubleshoot mode but the issue remains.

The only possibility I can think of is that I have too many emails. That's a very long, unrealistic guess so any others would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks, sivarik

Till TB128 is fixed in a newer update, you can download the following extension from

When I try to import an .ics calendar event by dragging and dropping it onto the events pane then nothing happens. When I double click on the .ics file to import it, then I get the message: "There are no importable items in this file.", but there is an appointment in the file.

In the error console ( Tools > Developer tools > Error console (<CTRL>+<SHIFT>+J) ) I see the following error appearing: "Calendar: ParserError: invalid line (no token ";" or ":") "</body></html>"'ParserError: invalid line (no token ";" or ":") "</body></html>"' when calling method: [calIICSService::parseICS] when parsing"

The parser fails on the following line in the .ics file containing the event: X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:

Who knows what is syntactically wrong with that line? Is there an on-line parser where I can check the correctness of the .ics file for Thunderbird?

The problem appears in the following version: TB version: 115.13.0 (64-bit) Platform version: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS, Linux 5.15.0-119-generic #129-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 2 19:25:20 UTC 2024 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux VCALENDAR version in .ics: VERSION:2.0

As of 2024-8-29, my calendar had a number of entries.

When I logged back in this morning 2024-8-30, all entries were missing.

Before shutting down for the day I usually do a partial back up of files. Could someone provide the path and file name for calendar events?

Thanks

When I create a new event I have to watch as the calendar it wants to save to in "Contacts" not my Google calendar. I have to select my Google calendar. Contacts calendar does not show up when I create a new event directly in Google calendar. I can turn off the Contacts calendar but I like that is shows my contacts birthdays. Is there a way to make my Google calendar default?

In previous versions I could easy crate new message from any calendar event by right-click and choosing option "change to message" (maybe that option had another name, I use polish version). After update to version 121 there are no that option...

hi all. i'm try to find a selector that would help me style events with a definite start and end time (eg. 9am - 11am) differently to all day events. specficially, to set the background-color to transparent, and assign the '--item-background' var color to the item-time-label. but without affecting all day events.

i've seen various selectors, such as targeting categories with [categories="something"], but is there are selector or a :not all-day that i can use to put this css snippet together?

thanks in advance!
