This addon is really useful, but it's totally unusable if you also have the ThuderBirthday addon: in the dialog to add a calendar, the page used to choose a Google calendar is empty.

Fortunately, the fix is easy: remove the ThuderBirthday addon since it's not needed anyway: in the new version of "Provider for Google Calendar" you can just synchronize the birthday calendars that Google already has.

The below post written by logen_fk:
"Working Solution for sync problem. Takes 1-2 mins :) Works for me! Rated 5 out of 5 stars by logen_fk on October 18, 2014"
...worked! I think the key steps were 1) deleting any Google calendars and 2) going into the preferences and deleting the old passwords that have been stored. In my case, there were about 10 or so passwords saved for the same account! Not sure why Thunderbird was storing so many - but this was probably causing issues. After I deleted them all - and deleted the calendars - and then went through the process of creating them all again, everything worked as it should. (Previously when it went to the step of asking me to select the calendars I wanted to display, it was blank.)
Thanks!
Brilliant add-on, by the way - thank you so much, Philipp!

UPDATE: 21/10/2014 - it's stopped working again today. Suddenly none of my calendars are available. I tried to remove and re-add - but now the "select calendars" box comes up empty. Back to square 1. :-(

In Lightning, I use the provider to add my calendar, however; the page never finishes loading.

Below is what I just wrote about Lightning and how I now use Provider for Google Calendar to obtain perfect synchronization with my Windows Phone:

As Outlook got bulkier and bulkier for my mere contacts and calendar, and since I've use mozilla mail since the Netscape days, I was delighted to find the Lightning option. I have been using it over a year now. Optional Lightning add-ons like Tabs, etc. also.

I love the full control including colors for types of events, appointment times to the minute if needed (try THAT LookOut!) and calDAV compatibility (try THAT LookOut!)

In fact, the only issue I've had is of my own choosing. That is I love my Windows Phones, but MS refuses to recognize the calDAV standard on their calendar. You have to enter calendar data online, on one's device, or via LookOut with the "Hotmail Connector." All very unsatisfactory options. I got by for a year by having my live.com calendar subscribe to my Yahoo calendar, which was synced to my Lightning. However it synced only once per day and was read only for my calendar apps.

I do not "do" Google because of their evilness in many matters, but today I had to let the monster bite my foot. Using the Provider for Google Calendar, I now have full synchronization between my PC and my phone.

I exported my Lightning calendar as an ics file, imported that into Google Calendar, then using Provider, made a new calendar back into Lightning.

About the only thing I had to correct were the colors, since no online calendar does this, and my tasks.

All well now, sweet! I contributed $10 awhile back, and will now support Provider!

Thank you, mozilla team! Who needs LookOut? Not me!

I removed this add-on, restarted Thunderbird, installed this add-on, restarted Thunderbird, removed the calendar, removed the password from the "options", restarted Thunderbird and added the calender again. It does not ask me for a password. Is this because I used the old reference from Google?

Kind regards,
Kelly

the solution doesn´t work for me.
I am stuck at:
Add a new calendar, "Google Calendar, paste the XML Link, click next, give it a name and a color, click "next" and nothing happens. I can click a gazillion times on "Next", but nothing happens.
TB 31.2.0

Not sure where you got those instructions, but the xml link is no longer required. Just enter your email address when asked. If you have the Thunderbirthday extension enabled please disable it temporarily.

I have yet to update all documentation.

I had been struggling with the same issue. This is THE solution what was written by an other user (gegmar) on 15th of Oktober 2014:

"Since I read a lot of ratings complaining about issues with Google's Authentication service, I want to share my solution to this problem:

After updating to version 1.0.1 my calendars stopped syncing. So I first uninstalled and reinstalled the addon and then deleted my google password from the thunderbirds known-password-list (Extras->Settings->Security->Passwords->saved Passwords).

Then - after deleting all remained old google calendars - i added a new google calendar. The Addon asks for Authentication and then provides a list of your available calendars.

I hope it helps some of you with this issue. I really like this Addon because I have not found any other solution, that allows me to write to an online calendar (very useful for calendars used on muliple devices)"

I love it.

Here is a bug.

Preferences->Security->Passwords->User master password

This conflicts with the addon and makes thunderbird almost unusable. I had to remove the add-on, remove the master password and reinstall the add-on.

Hello,
the new events are synchronised with google but the old one disappeared. So I export them from google agenda and reimport in thunderbird. All is OK now. I think is due to a change in the google agenda API.
So I continue with the module.

I had to remove this and lightning, update TB and reinstall. Lightning is installed, but this gives the message that something wrong happened, try again, when I try to download.

Since I cant even download, I cant use any support form or mail to the developer...

Can you please help? Please send help via nummerskivan(at)gmail.com too, since I can't find it here if there comes to many new refs.

Hello All,

I was also searching solution after Google change the API URL and after this module comes some problem.

I build up one own cloud server (for example synology not soo expensive) which is support as well CalDaV ( and another very useful services), and very easy to set up. Now it is working well without google all of my calendars storing now there. With TB the synchronising working without problem.

So if anybody else would like to change from google calender, I offer this solution.

For publishing the calendar there is also some easy solution for example phpcalendar or the CMS system (drupal, wordpress) mainly giving module for publish calendars.

Works again - but Offline-Support not available

Thank your for the great add-on. The new versions works again on my computer. But the proble is, that the offline-support of the calenders are not available. Is theire a possibility to get it back?

bye bye google!

Thank you for this great addon, which I used until google changed their API.

Instead of reconfiguring all our computers to point to the new Google URL, we decided to switch to a self-hosted caldav server (like baikal, owncloud or radicale...).

After Google changed their API, the addon had some problems. However it seems that the developer has worked really fast, fixing the bugs related to the new API.
I have been using this addon for more that a year, and it works most of the time really great with all my google calendars (I blame googles old API, when there were problems).
Happy to see that the developer keeps working on the project.

Had nothing but trouble with ver. 1.01 - kept losing sync with Google calendar, events disappearing in Thunderbird, repeating event parameters garbled, etc. Rolling back to ver. 0.32 fixed everything.
