I am using a Mac running Coronado. I updated Thunderbird 78.7.1 Before, whenever I want to send a message or forward something, my address book appeared along the left side of my screen. Now the address book on the left side is missing and there is no address book button in the toolbar.

How can I get my address book running back along the left edge of my message I am composing?

It's also under the View menu on the Menu Bar. Make sure you F9 in a compose window, not the main window.

Press F9 to show the Contacts sidebar in a new message window.

Again, this is a MAC. I press F9 and nothing happens, nothing changes
