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

https://www.ggbs.de/extensions/AllEvents.html Hope being helpful.

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

Like the subject says 'updated from 115 to 128.1.1esr and now (icloud) calendars wont sync'

I understand tb doesnt need tbsync anymore, do i remove these? When i try and enable the calendar function, a 'authentication required' windows opens up with username and password. But fails when the correct information is entered. I read where you can go to google, which i did, and get the required information, but that fails also.

How can I sync the new 128.1.1esr with my icloud calendars?

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!

Hello,

Has anyone an short tutorial how to integrate/install the icloud calendar and contacts into Thunderbird with the latest version? I searched the Internet, but found only older information.

Thanks in advance,

Import Profile Failed. Any tools to extract calendar data from profile?

I wish they had a) kept the ability to look at prior events in the most recent version of Thunderbird b) kept the option to export calendar as csv file.

But here we are. Is there any sort of stand-alone utility or any other way for me to get at my calendar data?

I installed an older version of Thunderbird, which has no problem with the rest of the profile, but chokes on the calendar.

Hello Team,

Hope you are doing well. I just installed Thunderbird email client and have imported my Yahoo Mail account into thunderbird. Further, add-ons TbSync and Provider for Exchange ActiveSync have been installed too.

However, I cannot add yahoo calendar. I have tried creating New Calendar and proceeded up to the steps - "On the Network ; paste yahoo calendar URL etc and the bottleneck seems to be yahoo credentials are not accepted. Please help.

Also is there a way to combine my hotmail, yahoo and gmail calendars into "one" Thunderbird calendar? I am not sure if calendar events from the 3 email providers are comprehensively included in my view today. Appreciate your guidance on this too!

Many Thanks, Amlesh

Hi, I've been using CalDAV on my Synology server to synch between my desktop Thunderbird instance and handheld without problems. I recently added my laptop as a third platform which synched fine. However now I am working offline (I have an Internet connection but no remote access to Synology), Thunderbird repeatedly comes up with the message:

An error occurred when writing to the calendar My Calendar! Please see below for more information. Error code: MODIFICATION_FAILED.

The error message is maximally annoying as it steals focus from all Thunderbird windows then hides in the background, making it look like the app has disappeared entirely.

I have Offline Support checked in the calendar properties. Platform: Windows 11. I've tried deleting calender_date\cache.sqlte as suggested elsewhere but that makes all my appointment disappear.

Hi, As stated in the title, how do you synchronize the Thunderbird calendar of two machines.

I don't want to do it with google and not with cloud applications. You can find enough about that. Can you help me?

Thanks in advance. Rob

I use to be able to put in a seach term and search all events (prior, current and future). Now I am forced to choose only current and future events. Why the change? Can I change Setting to allow for searching all events again?

Getting error Modifcation_failed when importing my exported calendar.

Opened the the error log (take a look at the link)

Just wondering what I am doing wrong and what can i do to fix this situation

I added my nextcloud calendars to thunderbird by choosing "Network Calendars". It shows them as writable but those calendars with are read-only in nextcloud. This makes it a unnecessary difficult and irritating to make them read only manaully. Shouldn't thunderbird detect that automatically?

Hi!

With the new release Support for TBsync was removed or has changed and isn't working.

And we really enjoyed the convince of TBsync with Cal- and CardDAV.

As we are having our own small Mailserver we already have experience with the Autoconfig XML File.

And here comes the real Question:

Do you have something similar like Autoconfig but just for the Cal- CardDAV stuff? If not and not even planed please fix TBsync. In case you have something - even if you consider it "Beta" - give it to me, I try any way :).

After an update to Thunderbird around 8/10/24, I can still list future calendar events, but no longer past events. It is very useful for me to list past events. For example, I can quickly find out when I last had a flu shot. Could you restore this ability to print a complete list of past events, as well as future events? Thanks! Carl Lund

Running Thunderbird v115.14.0. Edit single event. No [Save] button, only [Send and Close]. This doesn't appear for a recurring event, which displays [Save and Close]. Not good.

I need to create a recurring event in Thunderbird calendar, the event occurs every month on the 3rd last business day of the month. Is there a way to do this? Or, is there any plan to create such an event function?
