I hadn&#8217;t done anything different for that to happen. I right-clicked and chose &#8220;Reload Remote Calendars&#8221; but the calendar stayed blank.<\/p>\n<p>So I was recalling sometime in the past when something similar was the case, I had re-installed the add-on for Google Calendar Provider &#8230; then with a restart it worked to load the calendars.<\/p>\n<p>In this case today, I realized I STILL hadn&#8217;t put my husband&#8217;s work calendar into the newer computer setup, so that&#8217;s why I discovered this problem in the first place today. I got the URL for the calendar he shares with me and added the calendar in Lightning, it didn&#8217;t load, none of my things were there either.<\/p>\n<p>I went to &#8220;Tools&#8211;>Add-ons&#8221; and checked for updated Add-ons, but nothing came up as having updates. I searched then for the Add-on in question and it couldn&#8217;t find anything, tried a few times, then gave up and went to the browser. Only thing is, no links for that Thunderbird Add-on would load &#8230; I realized then I have it sitting in my download folder from before, so I went back to Thunderbird Add-ons and &#8220;installed&#8221; it and after re-start of Thunderbird, opening Calendar &#8230; stuff started to load right away.<\/p>\n<p>I also have a Palm Pre. On it, having Google Calendars is good but bad. I share that work calendar with my husband. He owns it, only he controls it, I just share it for viewing. If he puts stuff on it I get it on my Pre. But what if he changes it? It&#8217;s not updating on my Pre no matter how many times I tell it to &#8220;Sync Now&#8221; &#8230; so that trick that works is &#8220;delete Google Calendar account&#8221; on the Pre, then add it back again. Deleting is fast, adding back in it takes a pretty long time to put it all back, but it&#8217;s back correctly. Thing is, how do I know if my hubbies calendar is wrong on my Pre? Only if I question something and tell him what mine says and he says his says different, and\/or I open Google Calendar in my browser and see that it&#8217;s correct there and my phone says it&#8217;s different.<\/p>\n<p>Now I can track it in my Thunderbird Lightning Calendar again, as I did used to on my older laptop before. My hubby didn&#8217;t have a Pre then, does now. He uses Outlook, but has CompanionLink software to bi-directional with Google Calendar. Also, he usually uses Google in the browser to work on the calendar there, so I&#8217;ve been led to believe.<\/p>\n<p>I usually put stuff on my calendar on my phone. It seems to tri-directional fine for me. I will do more tests on mine and my hubbies over the weekend. <\/p>\n<p>For him, it&#8217;s a matter of this time, he put appointments on the wrong date, then corrected them later. My Google Account picked them up when they were new, of course, and Synergy put them on my phone like that. End of story. Ridiculous, but true.<\/p>\n<p>We need to test whether or matters or not if I share to view only, or can edit, or have shared complete control &#8230; this isn&#8217;t about &#8220;invites&#8221; since I asked him a while ago not to do that with his stuff, things were getting over complicated when I shared and he also sent invites, and he wasn&#8217;t managing the information the best. I was seeing double and triple. I mean, I share calendar to see it, that&#8217;s enough.<\/p>\n<p>Calendars on WebOS phones are layered and that&#8217;s something nice, but also not always so nice. This is the case of troubles I&#8217;ve had to solve by deleting my account on the phone before. But I hate having to do that. Insane it is, nearly for sure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For some reason, my Google Calendar&#8217;s I have in Thunderbird Lightning using the Google Calendar Provider add-on didn&#8217;t load any data today when I looked at them.
