After noticing that provider had stopped working I checked and found that the old Google API had been discontinued. The provider author advised to change to provider 1.0.2 as an interim measure but to await 1.0.3. I did this and Thunderbird crashed every time it started. the solution for me was to upgrade to latest 31.2 Thunderbird and then opt to accept latest lighting add-on during the set up. Result is every thing now back to normal. Whew that was scary! Many Thanks to the provider author for posting the note about demise of old Google API. My system was running Win 8.1

I prefer CalDav. Then you don't need Provider and that's one less thing that has to be kept to the appropriate version.

Note that this web page:

https://blog.mozilla.org/calendar/2013/09/google-is-changing-the-location-url-of-their-caldav-calendars/

is over a year old, so the version numbers given there are out of date. However it is still good for the process of connecting your Calendar.

Past versions of Lightning are here:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/lightning/versions/

which is useful if you ever need to run other than the very latest Thunderbird.

Thanks Zenos, Its just as well you posted your response as several days later a bug showed up in new provider 1.0.2 that has been acknowledged by the author. the Google calendar events dissappear even though the sync is working without error. The author is working on a fix. In the mean time I took up your suggestion to set up a caldav link to Google calendar (note there is a new caldav address as old one was changed by Google). After some fiddling around with the address and inserting my Gmail address into the caldav address string (I missed this the first time reading the notes on the link) it works great. So all back to normal. I disabled the provider exentsion for now and deleted the original calendar uaing that link
