1. How do I know if my calendar is saved to the cloud? 2. How do I access the cloud to retrieve a calendar if needed? 3. Do I first need the Lightning add-on? If so, which one? The first one on the list is simply marked "Lightning", but a warning reads: "This add-on is not compatible with your version of Thunderbird." I have the current TB version 78.9.0 4. Is there a way of increasing all day events to more than 5 events on any single day? Any event over 5 all day events simply disappears. Thanks for any help!

You'd need to set up a network calendar in the cloud with the calendar provider of your choice. So if you did I suppose you'd know.

2. How do I access the cloud to retrieve a calendar if needed?

That depends on your calendar provider. Typically you'd access a network calendar via CalDAV.

3. Do I first need the Lightning add-on?

As of TB v78 the calendar is built into the application. No add-on is needed anymore.
