I notice that on a new empty profile in 2.53.2 the Events and Tasks
menu is available in Mail and the Lightning extension shows as
installed. On the migrated profile Events and Tasks is missing and
the Lightning extension is missing. I've tried installing Lightning
but get an error report when I start it. Is there a fix I can apply
to enable Lightning in my migrated profile?
I notice in the about:config on this computer I can see the
calendar settings, such as the URL of my CalDAV server. Those
settings will have originated in the 2.49 profile that this profile
is derived from. Is there a setting I can change to re-enable the
calendar function?

Ken, no promises, but have you looked at Tools -> Add-ons Manager to
see if SM thinks Lightning is installed and enabled?? At odd times
over the last few years, after upgrading, I've found Lightning
missing from my screen and when checking, found it wasn't enabled.
I think it then required an SM restart to have effect!
HTH!
Thank you Daniel,
Lightning absent on the profile I'm concerned about. But if I create
another, new, empty profile then Lightning is there. Suggesting the
code and plug-in is present in SM but for some reason in this
particular profile its disabled or blocked in some way.
I see two ways forward. Fix this profile or use a new profile and
migrate things like bookmarks, saved passwords from a 2.49 profile to
a 2.53.2 one. The latter may be the better option but I think the
names of the files that need migrated have changed.
Thanks
Ken
Third option is reading the release notes. Missing Lightning is
covered there for a few releases now. Lightning is also now a packed
xpi. You can just pick it from the SeaMonkey installation directory.

Thank you Frank. I'm aware the Lightning is a packed xpi in current
releases, I've read the Release Notes - several times :-)
Apologies that my messages have not been clear enough. What I'm
attempting to say is; that on a new, empty, clean profile Lightning is
there. Confirming what you have said.
The thing I'm trying to explain, is that on a profile that has been
migrated forward from a 2.49 installation Lightning is absent/broken.
Is there a way to fix that besides deleting it? Details in previous
messages....
Thanks --- Ken
