I bit the bullet just now and installed Thunderbird just to access the Calendar part.
I don't know what they heck I'm doing to tell you the truth.
I was just expecting everything to simply work.
I don't know if Thunderbird or SeaMonkey would be a better fit for me,
I just thought I'd install Thunderbird and see what happens.
Well there is the Calendar on my screen but nothing is working.
I can't change to Month mode (or any mode)
I can't Import my Sunbird calendar.
I can't do anything right now, basically.
Any help would be appreciated!

Re: Calendar
Well I just closed the app and re-opened it and now I was able to change modes (month view etc.).
All the other features were now available.
So that's good.
Can I Import my Sunbird calendar into this one?
I didn't see an option for this anywhere.
I did see Export Calendar.

Re: Calendar
On the Calendar tab, Events & Tasks, Import... Press Alt if the Menu Bar is hidden.

Thanks for trying to help!sfhowes wrote:On the Calendar tab, Events & Tasks, Import... Press Alt if the Menu Bar is hidden.
If I press Alt a menu does appear.
I select Tools/Import...
but nothing shows up offering me to Import a calendar file.
Everything applies to e-mail.

Not Tools/Import, but Events & Tasks/Import.

Re: Calendar
OK thanks.
I was there earlier today and chose the file to Import.
I got the following message:
Loading items....
Import All / Cancel
I waited a bit and then chose Import All (with nothing showing above).
This time I did it again, but waited several minutes before selecting Import All.
(Still nothing showed above, as to what was being imported)
I have a fast computer and figure a few minutes should be plenty to capture all the data.
What should I see in the box above 'Import All'?
Will it always say 'Loading items....' and nothing more?
Or will stuff be listed there?
Thanks!

Re: Calendar
Maybe the Sunbird calendar format is incompatible with TB 91. You might get more advice in your topic on the Calendar subforum.

I just figured it out.
I had been trying to import the default format .ics,
I tried .csv and it worked. Go figure!
