Synching Thunderbird with your Google calendar is wonderful! The procedure is not intuitive nor well documented, but was quick and simple. Here is what I did:1. Open the Add-ons window (Tools/Add-ons) Add the following extensions: - Lightening - Provider for Google Calendar (bi-directional access) - Google Calendar Tab2. Click the Preferences button for Google Calendar Tab extension, select the second radio button (Google Apps for your domain), and paste the URL to your Google calendar (to do this, just open your Google calendar in a browser to get the URL).3. Quit Thunderbird and restart.4. Select Tools/Google Calendar.Your Google calendar should open in a new tab within Thunderbird and you should have bi-directional access to edit it without ever having to leave Thunderbird. Nice! (You may need to login the first time but you can then tell Thunderbird to remember your login credentials.) Unless you close the Google calendar tab, Thunderbird should open default to open with the Google Calendar tab. If you close the Google calendar tab, simply re-open it by selecting Tools/Google Calendar.
