This add-on provides a wonderful service to the Thunderbird application, making integration with the Google Calendar seamless. Make a change on your desktop and it automatically updates Google Calendar, and vis-a-versa. Everything syncs beautifully.
Only problem is that when attempting to move the Calendar tab to a new window, Thunderbird hangs and the only solution is to force close the application and restart.
It's not a show-stopper, but would make life even easier if the Calendar could be opened in a separate window from the email client.
Stopping the Provider for Google Calendar add-on resolves the problem, but at the cost of eliminating Google Cal integration.

This add-on work well with multiple Google accounts while the CalDAV support does not. Additionally, Google is
dropping support for CalDAV, but this addon uses not rely on CalDAV. http://googleblog.blogspot.com.au/2013/03/a-second-spring-of-cleaning.html

Hi,
I've used Lightning for many months (I can't recall when I migrated to Tbird ... :) and I'd occasionally encounter issues where I couldn't dismiss a Google Calendar reminder.
Last week it got so bad that I had 12+ reminders. I could have worked-around it by suppressing passed-due reminders but instead, I applied a work-around that was recommended: Lightning + Provider (for the actual connection to Google Calendar). Problem resolved!
Thank you!

Il faut lire la doc, ça nécessite plus que de faire 2 ou 3 clics pour en profiter. Il faut investir un minimum de temps au départ.
Une fois configuré, ça fait ce qu'on lui demande... super !

Ligthening ne marchait plus sur mon PC (Windows Vista) suite au passage à la version Thunderbird 17
En installant ce plug in, tout est rentré dans l'ordre et ma synchro Google calendar est de nouveau fonctionnelle

It works for the most part but I REALLY wish I could accept invites that have been sent to a DL, which is pretty much everyday. Google had a Calendar Sync utility that allowed for local Outlook calendars to sync with a gmail account and it worked beautifully. Is there a similar app or will this one ever work like that? If not, I'll probably have to go back to using Outlook, which sucks.

Hi
Thanks for this work, it's very usefull but...
since I update to Th. 17.0 on Windows XP my Google calendar is not visible in Ligtning (1.9)
I delete it, then I create it again : It seems ok, any error message but any event from my Google calendar is deplayed in Ligtning...
This problem doesn't exist on Ubuntu...
some help ?

Using TB17 with Lightning 1.9 and things work great. Calendars load up and can be made read-only or two way sync. Haven't had any issues at all there!
Two major annoyances at the moment though:
-- Cannot categorize events to which you were invited (not author) - which makes no sense!
-- Cannot add attachments to an event
Any chance of those being remedied in the near future?

I've been using Provider for Google Calendar for years. It generally does the job of syncing Lightning & your Google Calendar, but I have an unresolved issue. Currently, it's only syncing in one direction: Google Calendar to Lightning. Events added to Lightning don't get added to Google Calendar. I filed a report on bugzilla as others are also reporting the issue.

Ne fonctionne pas. Bien que mon Url Google Agenda (privée) soit bien identifiée (avec la bonne @ qui apparaît dans le champ de connexion) Thunderbird me demande à chaque fois le mot de passe... Sans que la synchronisation se fasse.

This is a very good beta product. Here are some suggestions for things I encountered in figuring out how to set it up and use it. 1. Turn/off disable all other calendars before installing the provider addon. 2. Install provider addon. 3. Click to create a new calendar (file new calendar or right click in the calendar bar and select new calendar). 4. Fill in information to access your calendar, xml url, email address and password and calendar name (DO NOT SELECT ANY CHECK BOXES FOR READ ONLY, REMINDERS, OR OFFLINE USE). 5. Wait for your calendar to populate in Thunderbird. If all this goes well close thunderbird and then restart thunderbird. If all is still going well, then right click on your google calendar and select properties then you can select to turn on reminders if want to turn those on. If all that goes well close thunderbird and then restart thunderbird. If all is still going well you are done. NOTE SELECTING OFFLINE ACCESS WILL CAUSE THUNDERBIRD TO LOCK UP TIGHT. If you lock up thunderbird you may have to restart it in safe mode and then remove the google provider addon and start over. After you get it installed and working properly you are basically fine for being able to read and edit alarms and appointments and deal with pop-up reminders. I like this product and think it shows great potential. There are other products out there to bring in google tasks and contacts to thunderbird, but I haven't tried them yet so can't say how they work with this addon. If you want your google calendar in thunderbird this addon is definitely something you should try. Better than the alternatives I've seen so far for sure.

The only thing that is required for a 5 star review is to sync Thunderbird/Lightning Tasks with Google Tasks, even on a simple level!
