Cannot add Calendars or Events in Korganizer

  • 772

My Korganizer is not usable. I am unable to do add calendars or events.

When I launched it the first time, it showed two calendars - Birthdays and Personal Calendar.

I tried setting up another local calendar. But it would not let me.

When I was trying different options, I accidentally deleted both Birthdays and Personal Calendar.

I tried getting them back, but could get only the Birthdays. There is just no option for Personal Calendar.

No Personal Calendar

No option to add it, either

And now, when I try to add an event, it gives an error like this:

Korganizer is unusable!!

How do I get this working?

There is no data is Korganizer currently. So, I do not mind a complete reset as an option. How do I do that?

  1. Your screen shot of adding an event shows no choice for a calendar in the dropdown box. That is the cause of the "Select a valid collection first." message. Your main Calendar window shows Birthdays and Anniversaries which should show up in the Event Creation box Calendar dropdown box. It doesn't - which indicates a corruption in your configuration. As you do not have any events yet, I recommend uninstalling and reinstalling Korganizer using your Software Center client (e.g., Discover in Kubuntu). In setting up your calendars anew, it might be helpful to work your way through the Korganizer Handbook:

  2. I had some time to figure out how to add more calendars . The only one way i found is :

    1. Install korganizer
    2. Export default personal calendar to some folder.
    3. Then close the program
    4. Right click on .ics file and on context menu choose open with korganizer
    5. Choose NO when asked to merge things
    6. Go to configurations menu and chose configure korganizer
    7. On calendars tab choose new created calendar and choose modify
    8. There is an option display name , put your calendar name there
    9. Apply
    10. Done
