A FAQ in the Wiki.

The official FAQ is at: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/faq.html

Files

Where is my Calendar file?

Select the "Calendars" tab in the upper right area of the screen (above the "Tasks"-list). Right click on the calender and select "edit Calendar". The file name and path are shown in the label next to "Lokal File Location".

How do I save my Calender-file on a FTP

It's tricky at first to figure it out but this is the way to proceed:

  1. Create a local calendar.
  2. Add an event and exit calendar.
  3. Copy the new calendar file to the FTP server (under another name if you wish).
  4. Return to calendar and fill in the "remote server URL" field of the new calendar. (ftp://user:pass@domain/filename)

That's all! It should work now!

The trick is that at least one event have to exist in your new calendar, otherwise, the file is empty and seen as "invalid".

Installation

How can I install calendar in my current Version of XY? It doesn't work.

Download the most recent calendar.xpi. Open it with your favorite zip-program. You might need to rename the .xpi to .zip. But don't forget to rename it afterwards. Extrakt the install.rdf and edit the var <em:maxVersion> of the Application you want to use to the Version you are using. I.e. 1.0 -> 1.0+ or 1.0->1.1 or whatever. Repack the install.rdf. Now you should be able to install it. Warning: This shouldn't do no harm, but don't do it if you have no idea what you are doing.
