Unreadable Calendar

Post by BettyRubble »

Hi!
After the 91 update, the calendar suddenly broke. It shows only one line of events in the field which makes it completely useless for work. Is it possible to return somehow to the previous version when the description of events was wrapped and filled the space in its window?

Sounds like the sqlite database (local.sqlite in calendar-data) used by the calendar might be corrupt. Do you have a backup? If not you could try importing a *.ics file if you have one, or backup the existing sqlite file and replace with either a renamed copy of cache.sqlite (if the "Cache" option was enabled in the calendar properties) or a renamed copy of storage.sdb (older sqlite file maintained for compatibility)

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Go_back_to_an ... hunderbird if you want to go back to an older version of Thunderbird. I suggest you don't use a version earlier than 78.* to avoid issues with how the address book is stored (switched from *.mab to sqlite) and changes to profiles.ini.

Unfortunately the KB wiki is locked so the KB article hasn't been updated. But the description of how the setup files are organized is still valid, and the links to where they are stored is still valid. It just doesn't deal with other issues that occurred after version 60.
