In Gnome shell calendar menu, when I click on "Open Calendar" it tries to open Evolution - even if it's not installed - Is it possible to change the default calendar?

Gnome Shell Calendar

P.S. Gnome shell Calendar does not follow default calendar application

Type the following in a terminal.

For Thunderbird:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.default-applications.office.calendar exec thunderbird

For Chromium

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.default-applications.office.calendar exec "chromium-browser 'https://www.google.com/calendar'"

This also doesn't work at the moment due to bug 841409. – WarriorIng64 Oct 25 '11 at 5:59
