Calendar is stuck in EST, how do I change it back to MST?

My understanding is that the calendar displays in the timezone that my operating system is in. When I changed my timezone from MST to EST, my calendar updated accordingly. However, I have since changed my time zone back to MST the calendar has not updated.

I have tried restarting Thunderbird. Also, I am running Thunderbird 60.3.3 on OSX 10.13.2

Yes, I'm on Mac, which explains the absence of "Options."

I found the timezone setting at Preferences > Calendar

Thanks!

There is a timezone setting under Options-Calendar-General also.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I don't have an Options menu item. I have File, Edit, View, Go, Message, Events and Tasks, Tools, Window and Help.

There also isn't an Options item under Events and Tasks.

Oh but you do. Tools-Options if using the Menu Bar or click the 3 line AppMenu button and hover over Options, then click Options when it appears a second time.


I gave up saying Tools-Options because most people do not have the Menu Bar showing and options is its own choice under the AppMenu button and not under Tools there.

Another thought... What operating system are you running? Options is a Windows thing. See this article if using MAC or Linux. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences_in_Windows%2C_Linux%2C_and_Mac
