I can't get this to work on my Mac OSX 10.4.11 it always gives me an error. It works "AWESOME" on my PC's, but the Mac "Not so much" - Please if you have any solutions. Also the SMS thing. Great work so far...

Fantastic Idea! Just need to get the kinks worked out.
As for just making changes to your own Google calendars it appears to work well. However from time to time it "forgets" passwords. On the other hand when using it to view and or make changes to another persons non public Google calendars, even thou you have permissions to view and or change, it seems to "forget" the login and passwords every 30 minutes. Sometimes reprompting you over and over and over again within seconds of typing the password and using the remember passwords feature. Eventually you can make changes/add events to another's calendar for which you have permissions. But the password prompts seem to be never ending.

There is a sync system for Outlook that seems to remedy this issue. However for those of us who hate using "Out Broke" I would much rather get this terrific Thunderbird add-on up to par.

Without an SMS option it looses substantial power to be used as a valid com tool.

Overall this add-on has the potential to be a fantastic Google powered Lighting enhancer. Look forward to new releases soon.

Thank you very much for this add-on. I have a problem with synchronisation when I add events from TB's calendar. Events do not appear in Google's Calendar, whereas Google Calendar events do appear in TB's Calendar. Can I ask why? TB's Calendar allows me to choose whether the new event should be marked as HOME or GOOGLE. Only GOOGLE events that are created through TB's calendar can be also seen on Google's Calendar.

Hello Sicom IT and others,

I am working on multiple reminders support for Lightning/Sunbird in general. I am nearly there, just a few bits missing. Please check out [1] for the bug on multiple alarms, which also implements SMS and EMAIL alarms for Google.

There is already a Lightning xpi for Linux that supports multiple alarms linked there for testing. Please backup your profile before using this version though. I cannot give support since its pre-pre-release.

Great idea; lousy implementation - far too buggy. Worked ok for a day (but slow). Then the multiple password requests started and never stopped. I had to uninstall it. Hopefully, a later version will fix the bugs. This has the potential to be a great add-on. Time will tell...

I think one of the most important features of Google Calendar is SMS Reminder and with this extension you still need to start a session in google to change the reminder because it's not possible to select reminder type from Sunbird through the extension.
This reduces drastically its functionality.

Love this plugin. Now that alarms work better with reoccurring events, it is much better!

Good add-on if you use Google Calendar.
However it is not possible to modify the nature of reminder which is a bit of a problem since I mostly use SMS alert.
I hope this will be implemented in the next version!

Great app, exactly what I was looking for, and integrates very easily. However it doesn't integrate entirely, since alerts set in google don't show up in sunbird. I'd really like to use Sunbird primarily, with google as my online access and backup, but I use SMS alerts all the time, and need the ability to set and see google alerts in sunbird.

To be honest I am unsure on what to do in order to make this addon work. I've downloaded it, installed it on sunbird and now what? There is no options on the addon and no help file in this addon page

This works really well with Thunderbird Portable- I just had to recreate my calendars with the Google Calendar option and not the iCalendar option I had used before.
