Calendar
Before you begin:
- Open your Thunderbird email client and click the file button in the top left hand corner
- Select New, and then select Calendar
|
|
|
- In the window that opens, be sure to select "On the Network", then click Next
|
- In the next window, ensure under format that Caldav is selected
- For the location entry, you will need to write the calendar address followed by the DAV Path
- Put a check mark beside Cache if you want to be able to read your calendars when you are not connected to the internet
- Note that you will not be able to edit a calendar unless you are connected to the internet
|

|
- At this point, Thunderbird will want you to name your calendar.
- The name is arbitrary, it can be anything that is meaningful to you. Thunderbird does not care what you name it, only that you name it.
- Choose a different colour if you wish, and deselect "Show Reminders" if you don't want them
- Select the address that will be associated with this calendar
|
- If Thunderbird pops up a warning box regarding the Security Certificate, click the "Confirm Security Exception" button
|
|
|
- For User Name, enter your full email address
- For Password, enter your email password
- Select Remember password to avoid having to enter it every time Thunderbird checks for new calendar events
- Note: if multiple people have physical access to your computer, not checking this prevent others from modifying your calendar
