The address book for email is all over that I can't do anything with it, why?

There is no Toolbox at the top to let me add new contacts and now addresses that I received from my email do not yet show upwards and no way to get them back?

Hi iklabunde,
I assume you are using Windows 7 or 8/8.1 and have a recent version of Thunderbird, or the latest version.

There seems to be two parties to your problem.
(1) I guess you lost your bar menu and your toolbar of the address book which is usually at the top of the address book window.
Try this. Open the address book. If it is already open, click on the window to make it active. Press the ALT key, then let go. The menu bar should appear. However, it is not permanent yet. Click on the Menu display-toolbars bar to make it permanent. Then click on Tools-Address Book display-toolbars toolbar for your tools for adding new contacts to show.

(2) I also guess that you can't see the e-mail addresses, you may have access in the past.
Try this. Click on view-page-directory component. A group of experts is expected to open to the left which has your different address books. Click on each of them in turn, and you should see your e-mail addresses reappear at some point.

Hope this helps,
Norio
