I just subscribed to the US Holidays calendar on the TB Holidays page: https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/calendar/holidays/ -> https://www.thunderbird.net/media/caldata/autogen/United-States-Holidays.ics

I noticed that Memorial Day is missing for all the years included in the calendar. I just ran across it, so I haven't looked thoroughly.

Is there a way to report this to someone or to correct it and submit a corrected version?

Thanks!

Hi,

For some reason, I don't see the calendar subscriptions in the Calendar view. I restarted the app, and I'm at the latest version. I did install an add-on that made things a bit wonky (a markdown plugin, but I'm not sure if that's when the calendar subscriptions disappeared). I uninstalled it. I noticed the problem after I had uninstalled the add-on.

Does this problem seem familiar to anyone? If so, how did you fix it?

Thanks,

L

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 was wondering if there's a way to include more than just 4 weeks worth of events/task in the calendar sidebar? I have increased it from 2 weeks to 4 weeks but I would like to see more without going directly into the Calendar. Thank you,

I'm getting duplicates of calendar items using the Provider for Google Calendar whenever I enter an event in Thunderbird. This doesn't happen when the events are posted elsewhere, on a Google Calendar. When I'm about to enter a new event, I can see a line labeled "Calendar" that gives me 3 choices ... 2 of them are the same, like xxxxx@gmail.com and the other is GMAIL. I have 2 gmail accounts sharing on three devices ... my laptop, my phone and my wife's iPad. Once I've finished and closed the event, I wait a bit and I get the duplicated item beside it. When I right-click on an event that I've put into Thunderbird, I see a line that says "Organizer:" with my gmail address. I don't see anything like that when clicking on a duplicate that has popped up. There is also a Related Link ... https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/event?eid=X2M5ajYyZTluNnRpajBiOWo2OWg2YWI5a2NkaGphYmIyYzhzNjRiOW02cGozaW9wcGNkaW04b2hnY2tfMjAyNDAxMTFUMTgzMDAwWiBnaGNoYXJ0ZXJzQG0 ... but it comes up as "requested URL not found on this server". I hope I've provided enough information here to get this situation resolved. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Gil

Hello,

I am getting old, my vision is much weaker than it used to be and now I have what is commonly referred to as "Eye Floaters." There's nothing that can be done to fix that, but with dark themes I can usually not see them. Due to a bug (or feature, if you prefer) in the Windows 10 Scaling and Layout settings, once you change them, there's no going back, at least that I have found. Low vision forced me to try to increase the font size in Windows, and in the (seemingly irreversible) process, I set Scaling to 150%. That fixed the problem of text being too small, but it also affected many programs in a negative way. Everything is waaay too big. For example, the menu bar and overall page header in Firefox was massive, taking up nearly a third of the top of my monitor screen. It did the same thing in Chrome only worse. The page footer was almost as big and between the two it left about two inches in the middle to view a website's content. This was very annoying to say the least.

I found a fix for Firefox, by changing the ui.textScaleFactor to 100. However, that did not work for Thunderbird. I found a way to fix it, by going back to Thunderbird 102, and now the email and address book are fine, and the calendar works fine, except for the colors with really bother me. I can't read the screen without looking away to the right of the screen. This is because the colors are too bright, and that is in a dark theme. I don't even want to look at a light theme. It would probably blind me.

Here's what I have. The 1st image is what it looks like, and the 2nd is what I would like to make it look like. Is it possible to do that? Please excuse the low quality color replacement on the 2nd image...

The last three Thunderbird updates totally erased my calendar information. I have backups which help to recover information but it is not acceptable for this to happen. Windows 10 Home latest update. Thunderbird 115.6.1 (64-bit) (erased calendar data) Hopefully this will be addressed as I really do not wish to change to another mail client as, up until now, Thunderbird has been very satisfactory.

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.

My Outlook calendar has simply disappeared from Thunderbird. It was there one minute, I blinked, and now it's gone. It's name and options still show up when I open TbSync (and the "synchronize now" button is still there and Synchronization status is showing "OK,"), but the calendar itself does not show up under the 'Calendars' tab at all anymore. I have tried "show all calendars" but it does not reappear. Running TB 115.5.2, TbSync 4.8 (updated today so maybe that's the problem?).

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

I can no longer see the .ics files that were once used. There are some sqlite files but they are unintelligible to me.

I would like to be able to read calendar entries, without modifying anything.

Would someone please point me toward any documentation, or advice.

For many years I have been printing each month with all dated information. I use that info to manage my life and meetings. The new version 115.3.3 (64 bit) will not allow me to print a month. What do I have to do to print what I need?

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.

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

Is there any way to get of duplicate scheduled items in the Calendar? Everything is duplicated! I'm not sure how they got there but it might have happened when I was trying to fix a differenct problem. Can I disconnect from the Google Calendar then reconnect?

So I was having problems changing an event to a different day. I performed an update, restarted, recheck updates, restarted PC Open thunderbird, mail appears Okay, calendar Okay Still cannot change an event (appointment) and it has lost the last appointment I added yesterday I decided to just add the adjusted even as a new event, and all calendars (2023, 2024, Holidays, birthdays) all now blank, and .ics fils are all 4.0 kb Seriously what has happened. Was working 3 days ago perfectly, now it's "stuffed". 1. Calendar is Blank 2. Cannot add anything new 3. creating a new calendar (restored from backup) is BLANK -Any suggestions? PLEASE

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

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?

Hello everyone,

First of all I would like to say that I love Thunderbird! I am also not very IT literate when it comes to manipulating software or using the correct language so please bear with me, I find these a bit overwhelming.

I was hoping someone could help me with with my calendar, I have tried to change settings on other software and it went terribly wrong and I don't want a repeat. I have read the various help files but it doesn't make much sense to me :(

I have a domain with Dynadot for my website and email, it's basic but does the job for my small business. It has IMAP abilities and an autoreply but that's about it- there's no calendar app but does have an email app... just. On my Windows laptop I use Thunderbird for all emails and calendar requirements which is great when I'm using my laptop. However, I do meet with participants and don't always use my laptop so I need a way to be able to view and book appointments using my andriod phone.

I also have a member of staff who needs access to my calendar and be able to book appointments for me and vice versa. As we are both out and about a lot the calendars need to be "live" and easy to reach, much like the paid for Outlook shared calendar.

At the moment my member of staff doesn't use Thunderbird as their main software, they have Outlook. We did try another email/calendar app but their shared calendars were just links that we had to save and keep logging into, it was a nightmare and without the updating we had some double-bookings. I don't want to go through that again, it was embarassing.

I would greatly appreiciate your wisdom in how I can resolve my issue and easy step by step guidance on how to do it properly. I am the type of person who will get locked out of everything!

Best wishes Rebecca

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.
