      Did you get the npm run install-mm done after verifying node version was correct?

          @angeliKITTYx looks like you didn’t do that in the MagicMirror folder

          cd ~/MagicMirror
          npm run install-mm

            I did it originally in the MM folder, but I ran it again and still getting the same errors

            I did catch this before the entire terminal filled up with “: ical.expandRecurringEvent is not a function”

              @angeliKITTYx that means the install-mm did not work

              Please do again and show the output

                        it’s booted again and no update notifs (:

                        …but none of my calendar events are populating. this morning, it took about 20m and they eventually showed up. I’ve had it open for about 10m already and don’t see anything. I’ll keep an eye on it.
                        update - I backed out and saw that I got all of these errors still…
