    Hello everybody. I come with very good News ! I find a solution without the people from MagicMirror.

    1. My old google calendar was too big (850k) and I search earlier for a solution to delete my old calendar entries in the google calendar, e.g. everything before 2017, but there were no function or button at google.
    2. I export my old and heavy ics File from google to my Computer.
    3. I wrote a short python script, which takes the ics header from my ics file, delete everything that is older than 2017 and ended with the original ending from my ics file. The new file is 85k :)
    4. I create an test calender to import the ics file - everything is ok.
    5. I delete every !! entrie in my Maincalender (my heart goes up) and import the new light ics file - everything goes fine and the new calendar is shown in the MM calendar.
    6. Delete the test calender
      Another nice thing is, that there are now no old datas in the google calender. For further information, just contact me.
      Yours
      Peter

      Thank you Peter for this idea, it will help to mitigate the issue. But this is only a workaround and not a solution, I want to keep my old entires …

        Is no one else having this issue? Besides the couple of us on this thread.

          @sacha81 thats no problem. Export your large an old calender on your PC. Create a new calender an import the data. Delete all the data in your main calender and import the small calender, sort by my Python Skript. So you got one calender with your old data and one small with your 2017 datas.

              I am still having this problem, but it might not be total related to size. I have a 2.43MB calendar that works fine and a 1.38MB calendar that will not display, both worked before the update. Has anyone found anything that works?

              Thanks.

                  I removed all items until today, now my calendar (Google private ICS) has just events in the future and still does not load items on the mirror. Wondering whats changed in this version with the calendar :-(

                    Hi,
                    I am experiencing the same issue since the update to the current MM version 2.1.1 . I should have checked for issues beforehand :-/
                    EDIT: I have all my calendars on my owncloud on the same LAN. All of them work fine except a calendar with all birthdays.
                    Since I have no time to troubleshoot myself for the next month, I will have to wait for an official fix…
                    Let’s make MM great again ;-)

                      I fixed my issue. Some searching led me to this:
                      https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues/791#issuecomment-289306407
                      No dates before 1970 are accepted - but in my birthday calendar I have created birthdays e.g. in 1946…
                      Thank you @amcolash

                      This is how you can check if this is why your calendar is not working:
                      ssh to your pi

                      cd /home/pi/MagicMirror
                      DIAPLAY=:0 npm start dev
                      

                      If you see this in the output, you have dates in your calendar before 1970:

                      Whoops! There was an uncaught exception...
                      Error: dates lower than Thu Jan 01 1970 00:00:00 GMT+0100 (CET) are not supported

                          at Request. (/home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/request/request.js:1171:10)
                      MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
                      If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues
                      

                      What I did to fix my birthday calendar: Edit this file

                      /home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/rrule-alt/lib/rrule.js
                      

                      Go to line 56 or search for the first occurance of “ORDINAL_BASE” and change this line:

                      ORDINAL_BASE: new Date(1970, 0, 1),
                      

                      set it to a lower year like 1900.
                      Then restart your magic mirror (pm2 restart mm)

                      And it’s (hopefully) GREAT AGAIN :-D :clap:
