Using a shared folder
When the calendar file is stored on a shared folder, you may also have several Thunderbird instances opening the same calendar file, provided the proper extension is installed.
Since a standard iCalendar protocol is used, even other calendar supporting products, such as Microsoft Outlook, may share the same calendar.
However, when using this method, only the first instance opening the calendar has modification rights.
