• 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

  Are you sure that your question is about Firefox and not on Thunderbird?
  Firefox does not use a file history.mab

• Request for information/blackBerry Smartphones: where is the address book/contacts stored in the BB Torch 9800

  Hello everyone, could someone tell me where exactly is the address book / contacts stored by default in the BB Torch 9800, IE; in memory of mobile phone, the SIM card (I don't think) or in the micro SD card card (multimedia card)? Thanks a lot for your answers. Best regards, Eric

  Edit: Deleted email. At any time if you provide personal information to any other Member of the community. Please visit the Community Terms & Conditions and community support guidelines for more information.

  More precisely in the device memory. Not in the media card or the SIM card.

  It is where they are stored by default and cannot be changed.

  You can save contacts to your SIM card, but only one number per name, no address, no email address, etc.

• Save the address book

  using tb 31.2, ow to save the address book or is it saved profile? also, how to make contact groups?

  Open "address book".
  Select the address book that you want to export.
  Tools > export

  See the first picture below

  This should open a window "Export Address Book".
  Usually, he chooses a generic file location that can be accessed before saving files. See third picture below. In your case, it seems that you see this window with the profile indicated instead. No worries, simply select the right directory.

  If you see the profile folder - you do not want to export an address book in your profile - it's already there as a mbox file. Do not select this place - you have to choose a location outside Thunderbird.

  First, you will need to choose where to save the file. Select the correct directory and folder where you want to export the file to. Identical to save any document you have to choose where to save it.
  See the second image as an example on the choice of a different location or use the left file pane to select.

  In my example - see third picture below.
  I chose a folder that I had previously created called my backup files, a folder that is located in the same place in the form of Documents, downloads etc.
  Give a name appropriate to address book file.
  Save as Type: choose LDIF or comma separated .csv
  Click on the button Save.

• I can't find my outlook express address book after you migrate successfully from the old computer. The "Address book" tab shows that local address book empty.

  I move from a Windows XP computer to a Windows 7 computer. My old computer has Outlook Express. I've migrated successfully my emails and messages archived in Thunderbird on the new computer. I also migrated the Outlook Express address book using an external hard drive, but I was not able to understand how to find the Outlook Express address book in Thunderbird. The only way that I could find the Outlook Express address book, is to go to 'tools' and 'import' and then import the Outlook Express address book. When I do this, the Outlook Express address book features, duplicate entries (because I imported twice now). When the Outlook Express address book shows, it works without problems and I can use it to send emails. But once I close the Outlook Express address book, I can't find him. Other messages, I see that the "Address book" tab in Thunderbird should open a window containing a list of available on the left side address books. But this window in my computer does not display a list of address books. There is just a blank window for the address book personal (it has no contacts inside) and there is nothing on the left side.

• Why won't save the addresses I enter the address book?

  Since we had Thunderbird, we were not able to add all of the addresses in the address book. Strange thing is, we added an address when we started, and the address is saved! But after that and since then, no other addresses are saved when add us them. Here's what happens: we add a new contact, enter the information and click OK. Thunderbird is always open, contact seems to be stored in the address book and can be accessed. But as soon as Thunderbird is closed and reopened, the address disappears and we are left with only only one address, that we've added when we started and nothing more. I hope someone can help with this!

• How to open the address book in the address book already used?

  Previous versions of ThunderBird would open for the last opened address book address books. Now, it always opens to the gathered addresses. Can I make it open to the specific address book that I used last time?

  If you use the latest version 38.2.0
  Previously, the 'address book' would always open on the default "personal address book" value as it was the top of the list.

  Then, after many requests by a group of people who wanted to be able to search all their address books in a go, a virtual address book called "All address books" was created.

  This meant it would always default to opening on the ' address books all the "whenever you opened the 'address book' even in the same session of thunderbird.
  A bug request has been filed requesting the opportunity to be able to establish a default address book of choice, and it is developing.

  At the same time, we discovered that the window 'write' Contacts Sidebar me remember a selected address book providing Thunderbird had not been closed - only not forget in this session. Thus, they are also looking to set a default address for this as well, so that Contacts sidebar does not auto by default to "All address books" every time thunderbird is closed and the end of the session.

• Add address of the sender to the address book using filtaquilla?

  When the sender is not in the address book, I want to give the user an option to add it. Is this possible with filtaquilla?

  There is a filter action, provided by FiltaQuilla, to "Add sender to the address list", and among all the proposed locations, your address books are included.

  But I see no way easy to offer the user a dialog to allow him to choose or not to do. Perhaps a javascript maven could do something here.

  Any sender can easily be added to the address book by clicking on its name/address in the header of the received message. Maybe you can use a filter just to highlight the messages from unknown senders in order to prompt the user to consider adding to their address book. Or you can create a saved search to collect such messages. Then, their mere presence in this saved search folder would indicate their status is unknown.

• How to create a subset of the names in the address book without having to type each name separately?

  When I used to use OE as my email client, it was possible to create "groups" in the address list, with the facility to send then to the group by name, so that each recipient included in the Group of email addresses all received the e-mail in question. (For example, the group named "IVG" consisted of six e-mail addresses, owned by six members of a discussion group, as I do, and I could send all at once simply email for IVG). Now, here's my question: in OE, I could fill the e-mail addresses of members of the Sub-group by simply selecting them in my list (s) global e-mail address. In TB, on the other hand, it seems that the only way to create a "new list" in the global list existing, is to type the address of each recipient by hand - an amazingly arduous task if the subgroup is of any size. And it is not clear that, even when the "new list" is over, it can be used as a "mass mailing" vehicle like the subgroup could in OE. Can someone tell me, please, if and how I can compile a subgroup within the address list of TB in the same way that I have described for OE? (And I can deal with just like a 'name' to send e-mails to all members of the subgroup, as described above?)

  Start typing and it will automatically complete. If you do not have to type a lot.

  Or create your mailing list, close it, and then drag and drop contacts on its icon.

  As you describe with OE, use the name of the mailing list replaces the addresses it represents. You can of course just select from your address book as any regular Contact entry.

  A significant limitation of the mailing list of Thunderbird, it is that it must be created in an address book with the Contacts he made reference. In other words, if you generate a list in the PAB, it must contain only the Contacts appearing in the personal address book. If you create an entry in a mailing list that is not in his address book parent, a new minimum Contact entry will be automatically created in this address book parent. Put in official terminology, a mailing list is a subset of the address book of its parent.

• How can I get the address book to always open with personal addresses. It opens with "all address books.

  When addressing and e-mail, addresses always open with "all the address book. This book contains many addresses which are not intended for daily use for most of the mail I write or pass. I want to always open with "Personal address book" to shorten the research process. I have not had any problems with this before the last update.

  Firefox does not have email or have an address book, it is strictly a web browser.

  If you use Firefox to access your e-mail, you use "webmail". You must seek assistance from your service provider or a forum for this service.

  If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, let know us and we can move this thread to the queue of Thunderbird. This issue is currently in the queue of Firefox to get answers.

• Open the address book by clicking on ' to THE ' in new message

  Thank you very much

  By air,

  Thanks for the reply but F9 is a volume control on my laptop.

• I do not see my addresses in the address book

  Hello

  I just reinstalled Windows 7 Pro (I had to) and I managed to reinstall Thunderbird, then point it to my existing profile as my email now displays correctly.

  The problem is that my address book seems to be empty now. I checked and my abook.mab and history.mab files are located and have content (13.1 K and 16.8 K respectively) have been dated to shortly before the reinstall. When I bring my address book, however, it seems empty.

  Is there something more I should do to get my address book will display correctly?

  Unfortunately I don't have an exported backup or anything sensitive like that.

  In which case it is important:

  Windows 7 Professional
  Thunderbird 31.4.0

  I don't know if the version of Thunderbird I was running was a little different than that I just installed. My previous version of Thunderbird has been reasonably aware.

  There is a possibility that you have more than one profile. Look at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-tb#w_how-to-find-your-profile and then look in the same directory to see if there is another * file *.default.

  If so, see https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/using-multiple-profiles to switch to another profile, and search for your address book. If you find, export using the LDIF format and then switch your main profile and import addresses.
  NOTE: no matter what name you give the exported address file becomes the name of the address book when you import it!

  Still no joy? Watch abook.mab with Notepad; It is a text file. Browse down to see if you have your address book entries.

  Let me know what you find.
