• How can I add an address book other than the "personal address book"?

  My personal address book contains only the people associated with our homeowners association. I would like to create other books such as family, friends, golf groups, etc. I was not able to find a way to do this. It seems that the only options are the collected address book and the personal address book.

  2 address books you list are the default books for Thunderbird. You can add more if you wish.

  Open the address book window.
  In the Menu bar, select file-new-address book

• Can not get the address book to display the email addresses of the contacts

  I moved BT mail using Thunderbird to access my emails. Everything went OK, until I tried to import my
  contacts. I can't get my address book to display the email addresses of the contacts. I will admit that I do not understand the menu you want to move the two columns from top to bottom after importing the csv file. Please can you explain what I'm doing wrong here. All I want is first name, last name and email showing in the address book. Thank you

  I tried to write a procedure to http://thunderbirdtweaks.blogspot.com.au/2013/03/importing-csv-files.html some time ago here. but the thing is if you change the columns in the CSV file in a spreadsheet, first match that Thunderbird expected (both in name and order), then you don't need to play with this terrible UI that aligns with the name of the field name of the field.

  It is in this dialogue if you have the family name next to the e-mail address of the family name is considered to be the email address.

• New email addresses go to the personal address book regardless of the book in which I select 'change details '.

  When I double click on the star next to a name in the header area to add to my address book to shippers, it appears a small window "edit the Contact." I select the address book I want the new address to go in and click on 'change details '. I enter pertinent information and click 'OK '. The new addresses always go in my personal address book rather than the book I selected in the original 'Edit the Contact' window. It is in Thunderbird 24.4.0. Tried it on 2 different PC with the same result. A machine is Windows XP, the other is Windows 7. Any ideas?

  I think I found a work around. Click on white star - it becomes yellow. Click again and select desired address book. Hit 'done '. Click on the stars 3 and select "change details". Enter the information you want and click 'OK '. An extra step, but it works.

• Why not work local address book autocomplete in the latest versions of Thunderbird?

  Hello
  I noticed that in Thunderbird 38 (currently using 38.0.1) the AutoComplete feature in the from: field no longer works. My preferences in "composition-> address" is located to local address book autocomplete. In the 38 versions this seemed to work perfectly. I could type in part of a name or address and I would receive a box drop-down list of possibilities. However, this no longer works. Is there something I need to do to reactivate this function? I just installed the latest version (38.0.1) in the hope that this should be corrected, but it wasn't. Is there something I can do?

  Thanking you in advance,
  Brad

  My apologies if I missed, but it is a step take almost.
  Restart Thunderbird with disabled modules (Thunderbird Safe Mode). On the Help menu, click "restart with disabled modules. If Thunderbird works as usual, there is an add-on or theme interfere with normal operations. You will need to reactivate the modules one at a time until you locate the offender.

If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attack.
