I finally found it easier to import the (readonly) Google calendar (from the net, and no UN/PW needed) as ICS (not as "Google calendar") by right-clicking the [ICAL] button (between [XML] and [HTML]), then "Copy Link Location" and pasting that. But the instructions on [[Calendar:GDATA_Provider#Accessing your Calendar|the attached content page]] were extremely useful to <u>get</u> to that button. --[[User:Tonymec|Tonymec]] 00:15, 11 August 2009 (UTC) | I finally found it easier to import the (readonly) Google calendar (from the net, and no UN/PW needed) as ICS (not as "Google calendar") by right-clicking the [ICAL] button (between [XML] and [HTML]), then "Copy Link Location" and pasting that.

Perhaps this should be a question in [[Calendar:GDATA Provider|the FAQ]], or should be explained on the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/4631 main page] of the extension. As far as my experience goes, Google Calendar can be used with Thunderbird+Lightning ''without'' GDATA Provider. I have been trying to find any difference, but apart from the additional radio button in the 'setup new calendar' screen, and the ability to use the XML link instead of the CalDAV link, I see no difference whatsoever. And I don't see a functional difference between XML and CalDAV... | |||
Could someone please make a little list of the functions of GDATA Provider? It would be appreciated. [[User:Jim Danner|Jim Danner]] 18:16, 9 December 2009 (UTC) | |||
