Tools buttons (not tabs!) are on Toolbars. If you can't see a Toolbar, look in the Menu for your function.

If you don't have a menu, or a toolbar, use F10 or alt+v to make a menu appear. In that menu go to View|Toolbars and tick the checkboxes. Repeat for each Thunderbird window as necessary (e.g. Compose, Address Book, message read.)

However, I am not confident for you that you'll be able to import from OE. But I have my fingers crossed for you.
