I was finally able to get Lightning to sync with my Yahoo calendar. That worked great until appt reminders started popping up and Lightning can't dismiss them. I can click the "Dismiss" buttons but it doesn't do anything.

I'm running Win 7, and Thunderbird 45.2.0 with Lightning plugin.

Any suggestions?

You are correct. I checked the Properties and It was Read Only. I could uncheck but when I rescyned it came back as Read Only again.

I deleted it and went back and reinstalled teh Yahoo calendar properly and it works great. Thank you!
