For anyone to help you will probably need the details of the bug report - what error messages do you get? what have you tried already?

Dear sir the following error is coming in evolution:--------

The information about the crash has been successfully collected. Please provide some background about what you were doing when the application crashed.

A valid email address is required. This will allow developers to contact you for more information if necessary.

Sensitive data may be present in the debug information, so please review details below if you are concerned about transmitting passwords or other sensitive data.

Pls help me sir.actually my all friends are not getting this problem.

That is a classic example of a program trying to be helpful and as a
result giving no usefull information...

In this situation I would usually try running the program from the
terminal to see if I could get more information.

Open a terminal (I don't know where that will be in Fedora) and
run the command "evolution" without the quotes.

With any luck it will output a whole load of messages. Copy and
paste those into here.

I don't use Fedora so it is kind of difficult to be specific, but
I would at first suspect a corrupt file.

The following applies to Ubuntu, it will probably be the same
for Fedora.

Close evolution if it is open
Open a terminal and run the command ps -A | grep evolution

For each of the items it returns run the command kill nnnn
where nnnn is the 4 digit process ID.

Browse to your Home directory and make sure hidden
files can be viewed.

Open the folder .evolution and rename the calender to
calender-saved

Start Evolution.

Let us know how it goes. If you are unsure about any of
the steps, please ask first.
