My wife and I use Google Calendars to keep track of future events, like upcoming doctor appointments or sports events or races we don't want to miss. We access those through Thunderbird, our email clients. The connection is with the Provider for Google Calendar add-on. We've used this combination for many years, perhaps even decades by now.
My connections to my calendar and hers are working fine on my Thunderbird client. But about the time of the change to version102 of Thunderbird, it became impossible for me to access our calendars from Thunderbird on a new installation. I configured Thunderbird on my wife's new laptop, and was unable to connect it to her calendar.
When I've created a VM and installed Thunderbird on it, I can connect with my email accounts with no problem, but when I install the Google calendar add-on and try to access the calendars, none of them show up to be selected. A tall, narrow window appears, but then disappears instantly. Then this window appears. There should be a long list of calendars here, from which I would normally select a few.
Although the account name and password are correct, nothing shows up here. There should be my personal calendar, schedules for several local sports teams and racing championships, and the calendar of US holicays. I haven't been able to figure out why nothing is listed.
On my laptop, I didn't install the new version of Thunderbird, but just let it migrate when version 102 was added to the Solus repository. The upgrade worked perfectly, including connecting with the calendars I'd used before with the old Thunderbird. But my wife wasn't using email at the time of that upgrade. And after configuring it for her now, and adding the Google add-on. I'm unable to use it to connect with her calendar.
Not being able to access calendars from VMs was not a big problem, so I didn't try to solve this issue when it first appeared, and I assumed it would be fixed in a weekly update. But not being able to connect my wife's email client to her Google calendar is a big problem now. As everybody knows, when Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy.
I've searched the web, but so far haven't found anything that works for me. If this sounds familiar, and you know of a solution, would you please let me know? Thanks!
