Hello, I am attempting to switch my personal email/calendar app to Thunderbird. My ISP is Shaw Cable in Canada. Email is working great but I also want to use the caldner service. It appears from reading Shaw support pages that they don't support the CalDav protocol necessary for Lightning. Not sure what the problem is as it works on iOS and Outlook.

Any one have success using Shaw Calendar with Thunderbird lightning? Or perhaps offer me an alternative calendar?

Thanks in advance

Both those things natively support Microsoft proprietary calendar interface. Interestingly, your provider is paying more to provide that proprietary interface, because they must use Microsoft operating systems. So your service is essentially costing more than it needs to.

However there are some choices i the way of add-ons to get you where you want to be. I would guess this add-on will do it for you. https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/tbsync/

Apparently, Shaw doesn't support CalDav access for residential accounts. I tried to add a calendar with TBSync, but it failed to autodiscover the settings, confirming the first sentence. It works with iOS and Outlook because, unlike TB, they support ActiveSync protocols.

Google calendars are an option.
