I really want to like Thunderbird but it just seems to be kind of a mess. I am trying as hard as I can to avoid subscribing to Office just to get Outlook but so far haven't found a 3rd party email/cal/contacts app(s) that (1) meet my needs and (2) actually work right. Ironically, I can get Oauth credentials from AT&T, which is otherwise awful, but not Google). Doing some research I tried TbSync and whatever-the-extension-to-that-that-works-with-Google-is-called (I forget) but it wants, I guess, some sort of OAuth credentials and I have no idea how to get those from Google (I don't have a Cloud account, don't want to and know nothing at all about Google's APIs which the online resources I've found all talk about. It's there but I don't see any way to connect it to Google. So that's useless.Īnd I don't know how to get contacts working at all. So far email seems to be working OK (I think) but I can't get the built in calendar to work right - it seems to connect and lists all ~10 of my Google calendars but only actually shows like maybe two of them. All I've set up so far is my main Gmail account (I need to be able to access a number of different email accounts on several different servers but am starting with just my main personal gmail account to keep things simple). After trying several email clients (including paying for them) and getting annoyed I am back to trying Thundebird with the new 91 release. It syncs contacts from iCal not from Thunderbird.So after trying to switch from Mac to Windows at home earlier this year I am still having issues with finding a Windows 10 email/calendar/contacts clients(s) that don't suck. T-bird 'additional email' field = iphone 'home' email field T-bird 'email' field = iPhone 'other' email field Once everything is set up, you can use the T-bird add on to sync the T-bird address book to funabol, and then use the iphone app to synce your iphone to the same funabol account. Open Thunderbird and click on Address Book option in the Menu. This account will be used as a 'go between' between T-bird and the iPhone.Ģ) Download the T-bird extention for MyFunabol here:ģ) In iTunes or from the iPhone download the funabol iphone app at:

Heres how I do it:ġ) Set up a free account at my. but Google has limitations in its CardDAV API : categories removed, list synchronized but not correctly displayed in a web browser. I have been able to sync Thunderbird and iPhone contacts very well. yes it’s possible : Add New Address Book, then remote, then Google.
