Lost Evolution's calendar contents, what do I copy from my 9.04 tar backup file?

[Rick Berger-2]

Just updated to 9.10 the other day. I just clicked on Couchdb->Ubuntu in
Evolution's contacts got a message to the effect that something is not
specified. Then a little later went the check my calendar launcher panel
and it looks like calendar contents are now lost. I did get another
message I found under other open windows saying calendar was not
responding. Given I did a Evolution backup under 9.04, what do I copy
from this tar backup file to get my calendar contents back?

I am impressed with the other fixes in Evolution in 9.10.

From Nautilus, double-click the evolution-backup.tar.gz file and open in
the archive manager. Double-click the .evolution folder & you'll find
the the calendar folder. Single-click that folder and then 'Extract'.

I've replaced all the file in their appropriate sub-directories in
"calendar"  from their backups and nothing appears in Evolution's
calendar. Could there be something I've accidentally switched off?

Maybe. Look in the upper left corner of the calendar screen. Under the
Heading "On This Computer" there should be various entries. These are
your calendars. Do they have checkmarks beside them?

Yes they were unchecked, I should of looked the obvious. Everything is
there.  Thanks for the help, it's really appreciated.

Then perhaps updating from the evolution-backup.tar.gz is the best option.
