Manual of google Calendar and ThunderBird


Keywords: google calendar, ThunderBird, Provider for google calendar, add-on


Software: Thunderbird 2.0.0.9, Add-on: Lightning 0.7 Add-on: Provider for google calendar 0.3.1



(pasted from http://bfish.xaedalus.net/?p=239)


Now, the last piece of the Pie is to tie our Google Calendar into our Lightning Calendar. First of all, you will need to log into your Google Calendar account. Once you are at the main page, click on "Settings" from the Top Right Menu:


Google Calendar - Settings


Once on the settings page, you need to drill down into the "Calendars Settings" screen and then click on your Calendar from the list (I only had a single calendar.)


Google Calendar - Select your Calendar


Now, finally, you need to copy the URL of your Private Address XML Feed into the clipboard.


Google Calendar - Private Address XML


You're done in Google Calendar for now and we can head back to Thunderbird to finally wrap this tutorial up ;). Once you are back in Thunderbird, you need to create a new calendar in Lightning. You can do this by clicking on the following Menu item:



File -> New -> Calendar…



Creating a new calendar in Lightning


Upon clicking the New Calendar menu item, another window will appear. The first option is the location of your Calendar - select "On the Network" and click Next.


The next option allows you to specify the Format of the Calendar, slect the "Google Calendar" radio button (if you don't have a Google Calendar radio button, make sure your Provider Extension is installed correctly). In the location input box, paste in your Google Calendar Private Address XML Feed that we extracted above, and click Next.


Specify your Calendar Location


The next window asks you to give your new Calendar a Name and a Colour, I will leave these entirely up to you ;)


Finally (yes, at last) you will have a "Google Calendar Login" window which will ask for your Google Account login. If you only have a single Google Calendar, Provider will have automagically extracted your username from the XML feed you just specified; however, just double check that it reads @GMAIL.COM. Then enter your usual GMail password.


Well done, you can now enjoy the many benefits of being able to view and update your Google Calendar directly from Thunderbird - nice work ;)


The end result

Update google calendar by sunbird


Keywords: Google Calendar, Mozilla Sunbird, Provider for Google Calendar


Sunbird have two network calendar built-in providers. One is iCalendar(ICS), another is CalDAV. You can use ICS to subscribe the google calendar, but it is not allowed to update into google Calendar by this way.


Privider for google calendar is an extension of Sunbird and ThunderBird. It will provide another format to support sync google calendar.


Pay attention to the extension and sunbird version. If they are not compatible, there is not Google Calendar format in the create new calendar wizard of Sunbird.


But, at present Provider for Google Calendar 0.31 is out of work in sunbird 0.7
