I have two calendars in Google, but have none locally in Thunderbird. I expect to be able to respond to event invitation letters by accepting, declining, etc. and saving said events to one of my calendars (provided by Google). The problem: When I receive an event invitation letter, the toolbar showing the Accept, Decline, etc. buttons is missing (it's there if I have a local calendar). This prevents me from sending out automatic responses and saving the event to one of my calendars. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set up a Google Calendar and integrate the service with Lightning. 2. Delete your local calendars. 3. Receive an event invitation letter. Actual Results: The Accept, etc. buttons are not shown for the event. Expected Results: I would expect the Accept, etc. buttons to be shown, as normal. The issue can be worked around by dragging the letter to the Today pane, but in this case Lightning sends out invitations to this event to the other attendees! The Notify attendees checkbox can't be unchecked. The other attendees can be manually deleted, but that's tedious work for simply accepting an invitation...

It seems like the main issue is that Provider for Google Calendar / Lightning can't accept an Outlook/.ics invitation into anything except a Local Calendar. Is that correct and by design? My problem is that the invitation isn't being sent to my gmail account, so having gmail automatically accept invitations doesn't help. The invitations come into a work account (we're not allowed to use gmail for work), and I need to get them accepted into my gmail calendar (which I can use...). Currently, I can accept an incoming invitation using Lightning/Thunderbird, but it saves it to my Local Calendar. Then, I have to copy the event into my gmail calendar (in Lightning/Thunderbird). What I don't understand is why there's not an option, or it's not possible, to just configure Lightning to accept the invitation directly into the gmail calendar? Thanks very much.

First, create a new CalDAV Calendar in Lightning that points to your Google calendar using the following when prompted: https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/ [ your Google Calendar ID ] /events Where [ your Google Calendar ID ] occurs above, use your Gmail login name. Continue through the setup, and you'll eventually be prompted for your password etc. Now, your Google Calendar should show-up in Lightning. To accept the ics file, YOU MUST have Thunderbird Email client set to view attachments INLINE. If you do so, the Accept Decline ect buttons will show when you open the email. ALSO, I've found that you must actually open the email, not just look at it in the preview window. Hope this helps - it's working for me.

I dismiss all and then they re-appear 3) A warning, saying modification failed, is also appearing when trying to dismiss the reminders. On the positive side appointemtns appeared in TB and new events were created. I didn't get around to teting the original problem until I can get the calendar working properly any thoughts thanks Malcolm (In reply to comment #7) > I think I can help. > > First, create a new CalDAV Calendar in Lightning that points to your Google > calendar using the following when prompted: > > https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/ [ your Google Calendar ID ] /events > > Where [ your Google Calendar ID ] occurs above, use your Gmail login name. > Continue through the setup, and you'll eventually be prompted for your > password etc. > > Now, your Google Calendar should show-up in Lightning.

We use CommunigatePro for our email server which has a CalDAV calender. Everything worked great in older version, could accept invitations, saved properly to our calendar. Now when I hit the accept button, it just goes away. If I add a local calendar, it pops up the calendar selection and if I select local, it works, but if I select my network calendar, nothing happens... I can drag the invitation into the today panel and that works....
