Thunderbird and iCal and iPhone and Mac!

By Anna Medlin - Nov. 28, 2007

Hi - I have checked out Sunbird, and it is very neat. However, I am looking for something that will allow me to automatically sync my iPhone with my calendar. I currently use Thunderbird for my email, and not Mail.app. Is there an easy way in which I can keep track of 'todos' and events/appointments in Thunderbird and have them AUTOMATICALLY updated in iCal so it can sync with my iPhone.

    Sunbird (well, lightning, really) has a plugin you can download that allows you to sync with Google Calendar. You can find that plugin here:
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/sunbird/addon/4631

    Note, this is a 2-way sync.

    You can also publish your iCal calendar automatically to a local site, and you can then have your Lightning app sync to that calendar.

    Please note - the iCal publish option is one way. That means that it is read-only. You will not be able to create calendar items.
