Hello. I wanted to ask you about the option of switching between calendars in thunderbird I have two gmail accounts and I mainly use one of them altogether with the calendar. Thunderbird automatically loaded the calendar from the other account. I tried to switch it by going to Edit - Calendar preferences - and marking the right calendar account but it still didn't work. How do I do it? I also change the language but somehow the actions don't apply. Is there an option how to save the changes I am making?

Thanks for your answer. It worked! In my case I first needed to create a new calendar on my google account. I realised just after trying your instructions the first time. Thank you very much for your help :)

Go to your web mail by your browser. Go to google apps button next to the gear. Choose calendar. Click on your calendar. 3 vertical dots appear with options appear. Select settings and sharing. Copy your public address in iCal format and keep it in a text file.

It looks like this: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/xxxxxxxgmail.com/public/basic.ics

Logout from your google account. Open Thunderbird and go to the calendar tab. Right click, new calendar, on the network, insert your google account as username and for Location pase the public address in iCal format. This location does not ..... leave it unchecked, Offilne support remains checked. Press find calendar. Verify your google password and All done.
