Thunderbird 31.3.0, Lightning 3.3.2, Provider 1.0.3, Windows 7 Pro

Working fine as of today, 12/31/14. On Dec 13 I submitted a review labeled HORRIBLE STILL. At that time I was highly frustrated. But I connected to the support forum and was able to find the cause of my problem, it seems like a few lines needed to be removed from my config file. I removed Provider and Lightning. Then I removed lines in config with "calendar.google.calPrefs", reinstalled Lightning and Provider. I was able to use the newer, friendlier, GUI to install 9 google calendars and they have been working like did for the past few years. Hopefully this info will help anyone else who is having problems with 1.0.3. But I think mine are history, and my Provider is great to have back again.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0.3).

Results don't work, but the new interface is ideal format.

Been waiting for 1.03 for too long. Does not work! Here is a history of what I did:

11:13 PM Saturday, December 13, 2014
Provider 1.03 for Google has blanked out all Outlook calendars.
Tried to delete calendars and reinstall them, NO GOOD. After selecting calendars, Next hung.
Deleted Lightning, and Provider and restarted Tbird 31.3.0
Installing Lightning 3.3.1, restarted Tbird.
Installing Provider 1.0.3, restarted Tbird.
Three calendars are listed, Ingram/Legacy/CERT, no events are showing.
Deleted all three calendars.
Added 8 new google calendars, On Network/myname@gmail.com
Legacy/CERT/IRL/Sprint/Ingram/Nationwide/Bob-Gmail/Holidays.
11:30 PM - Clicked on Next ..... nothing happening.
11:32 PM - Clicked on Next ..... nothing happening.
11:33 PM - Restarting Thunderbird.
Legacy shows in list, not checked. Checked box, still no items showing.
11:35 PM - Restarting Thunderbird. No change, Legacy in list, no dates, no other calendars listed.
Have added Google Calendar Tab as a temp work around, but really want the features that Lightning provides.
Should I have chosen Ical or ICS and used XML code instead of selecting google calendar? Need a beta tester, contact me!

Too bad, this was such a great program for so long.

Edited on 12/31/14 - Problems fixed. See new posting.
