in bug 478422 the user "removed Lightning version 0.9 add-on and then reinstalled.  This seems to be a work-around."

does that work for you?
if not, does it work if you go back to lightning .8?

This also doesn't work for Sunbird.

I've quite the same bug using Lightning 0.9 with Thunderbird Portable (2.0.0.23) on an USB key (windows XP).

When launching, I got an error message:
"An error was encountered preparing the calendar located at moz-abdirectory:// for use. It will not be available."

Detals:
Error number: 0xTypeError: Component.classes["@mozilla.org/calendar/calendar;1?type="+type] has no properties
Description: TypeError: Component.classes["@mozilla.org/calendar/calendar;1?type="+type] has no properties

And in console, I've (H:\ is my key drive):
Error: Assert failed: An error was encountered preparing the calendar located at moz-abdirectory:// for use. It will not be available.

Seems that you created a calendar using the ThunderBirthDay extension and disabled/removed the extension without removing the calendar in Lightning first. Reinstall ThunderBirthDay, remove the calendar from Lightning, uninstall ThunderBirthDay.
