Calendar/Reminder

Does anyone know of a portable calendar that has a daily scheduler with reminders of events?
There must be something like this.
The ones I have tried like Task manager and ToDoList are not what I am looking for.

Thunderbird + Lightning

The lightning extension for Thunderbird does everything that Sunbird used to and more. You can use Thunderbird without even setting up a mail client if you don't need it (Just add a News and Blogs account) and then add Lightning to it.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Thanks, but I found Thunderbird to be confusing/annoying!
I HATE POP mail with a passion!
I have always used an internet email account.
There was NO calendar function that I could find.
That is why I wanted a CALENDAR program with other functions,
not a program with a calendar in it.

I'll look at RedNotebook and see what it is like.

No Need To Use Email

You can configure Thunderbird not to use the email functionality and just to use Lightning. Sunbird was probably the most full-features calendar app. And Lightning running in Thunderbird is everything it was.

It is odd you used web-based email without web-based calendar, though. Personally, I'll only use local for both. And I use IMAP so all my mail accounts see all my mail on all my devices.

I tried to configure with and without an email account attached and it would not do anything either way.

I do have an email account online that can see all of the accounts. Wink GMX does that.

ReminderFox

If your focus is more on reminders, then you may want to look at the ReminderFox add-on. You can install it in either Firefox or Thunderbird.

I thought about that. Does ReminderFox work in Firefox Portable?

Certainly...

As a rule, any add-on that works in "regular" (locally-installed) Firefox works in Firefox Portable. I use ReminderFox in Thunderbird (Portable) currently, but it works pretty much the same in either Fx or Tb. (BTW, you don't need to define a mail account to use Tb; you could define one of the 'Other' (Blogs & Feeds) accounts, and it then won't prompt you again to create a mail account.)
