Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please answer these questions:
1. Is this reproducible?
2. If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug? Be as detailed as possible.
This will help us to find and resolve the problem.

Sure.
I am completely locked out from my Tasks, Memos, and Calendar in Evolution, ever since I upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10. It is very frustrating, as there is a lot of important information (100's of items) in those formats.

I'm using the 64-bit version.

This problem occurs every time I use Evolution. I have never been able to get to those items since the upgrade.

I have tried deleting all files that were not Inbox from under my .evolution folder, and then selecting the Calendar. This shows me briefly the calendar items for the week (that was my default view), but before I can open on or scroll to a different date, or search, the dialogue box comes up again, and tells me that I cannot access them. Thereafter, when I go into the Calendar (or Tasks or Memos) -- and even after a reboot -- I don't even see a list of them any more.

[Matthew Smith (mtgsmith)]

Strangely, appointments can be seen when clicking on the date on the top bar. Even with the Calendar/Appointments/Locations dialogue open, when I click on Calendar in Evolution, I cannot see anything and continue to receive the warning that it must be restarted.

Still no idea how to find the hundreds of memos and tasks lost somewhere in the bowels of Evolution.
