I dual boot this HP 6730b Laptop with both Windows 7 and Mageia Linux,
as shown i8n my sig file, and share the one SeaMonkey 2.49.1 profile
which is situated on one of my Win7 partitions. Recently I have added
Lightning (getting old ... memory failing ;-( or is my life getting
busier?? ;-) ) to both OS's SeaMonkey profiles.
I originally installed it to Win7 SM and it appeared in the Mail & News
Screen and I added several dates. It didn't display or remind me of any
dates that I had entered (but I'll try to sort that by posting to the
m.s.calendar newsgroup).
What I want to know here is ... it seems, each time I switch between
Win7 and MGALinux, I'm losing the Lightning display in SM's M & N
screen. Is this because I'm setting up SM/Lightning to function in one
OS and then when I change OS's, it forgets (for some reason) that it had
had Lightning installed, requiring a re-installation again and again and
again??
Is there someone out there who uses Lightning on several different OS's
that might be able to sort me out??
TIA
Set up SeaMonkey w/lighting for each OS. The install.rdf's are different
for Win and linux:

Point to the same profile (backup beforehand) and see if that solves
your problem.
I do not use the same profile on my Win10/Ubuntu linux dualboot - if I
absolutely need to ensure they are in sync I just use grsync/rsync
between them. That said, I have changed to primarily using Google
Calendar as the medium between both Lightnings (Win10-Lightning / GC /
linux-Lightning) and so far everything stays in sync w/o any real issues.
Thanks to those that replied. As I read the three responses, I started
thinking ....
"Am I doing thing wrong by, rather than setting up my Linux Profile and
then pointing to my e-mail files/bookmarks/etc on my Win7 drive, when I
set-up the Mail & News, I point directly to the files on my Win7 drive??"
So, that way, the Win7 Lightning would be in my Win7 Profile and my
Linux Lightning would be on my Linux Profile would be on my /home partition.
