Thunderbird

Calendar

Before you begin:

• You will need to have the lightning plugin installed in thunderbird
• You will need the DAV Path found on the server or the Dave Path from some else's Calendar

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 The full value will look like this: https://cal.domain.tld/caldav.php/bob@computerisms.ca/calendar 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 See Security Certificates for more information
	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
Click the Finish button
	You can now access your calendar
