the birthdays was on Aug. 4th, but the reminder doesn't go away . I can kill it with the cross top right, but it comes back. all other buttons do nothing, the dialog stays.
TB 52.2.1 , Win 10.

any ideas? Thanks,
Klaus

What do you want to remove? The reminder or the event?

In the "Reminders" window, when you choose an event, there will be two
buttons: "Snooze for" & "Dismiss".

In my test, if I press the "Dismiss" button, the event goes away from
Reminder. Is this what you are looking for?

If not, I have some questions and remarks:
* Your calendar is hosted in Gmail, right?

* In Gmail, a *separate* calendar for birthday is created
*automatically* by Gmail. Are you talking about it?

* Or did you create your own birthday events? And how did you create
them? I mean, in "New Event" dialog, there is the option called
"Repeat". Did you use it?

No gmail. This is a Local ICS calendar.

Dismiss does nothing.
