Thunderbird Community Forum

Thunderbird locked up. Followed forum advice to reload Thunderbird. Identified legacy abook.sqlite and history.sqlite files but these will not import to reloaded Thunderbird. Confirmed these files are not read only. Any advice much appreciated..

I want to sync my Contacts data from Thunderbird email to Zoho. Google advises a two-step approach. 1) export contacts from Thunderbird to computer drive, which I did. 2) import that data into Zoho. The problem is that Thunderbird's zip file it too large; it exceeds 500MB.

Possible solutions: 1) divide the zip file for manageable, multiple imports to Zoho; 2) or can thunderbird export in Zoho's preferred formats (CSV, LDIF, or VCF)? 3) or can the zip file be converted to either of these formats.

I have called Zoho's tech support, but they cannot assist. Now, I am stuck.

Please advise.

Comment créer une nouvelle liste de contacts de type excel.

Rmq générale ... Thunder évolue et c'est bien. Apparaissent de nouvelles propositions et sous-programmes / nouveaux noms sans les définir préalablement , ce qui suscite la méfiance.

I'm still learning Thunderbird after years of using/supporting Outlook. So far, so good. Today I wanted to create a Mailing List. I found a support article on this dated 2/13/15. It said:

Create a mailing list

   Open the Address Book.
   Select File > New > 'Mailing List'.
   Enter a suitable name for the mailing list.

In version 156.0.1 this doesn't seem correct any more. I've uploaded an image of the menu I get. There doesn't seem to be any Mailing List option. 2015 was a long time ago, so I'm guessing this Article is WAY out of date and Mailing List creation has changed. Any guidance?

At least two of my contacts contain more than one email address, but not all of the email addresses appear in TB; the relevant cards in TB contain some but not all of the addresses in the macOS address book.

I am working on a Mac mini 2018, with Sequoia 15.7.5 installed, with Thunderbird 156.0 installed as my e-mail client. Every year about this time, I have to update the members of a couple of groups. This has always smoothly worked if I make the changes in iCloud's contacts, then wait a couple of hours and it syncs to Thunderbird. Not this year. No changes occurred. I have (more than once each) removed the iCloud address book and attempted to reinstall by creating a third party app password (Thunderbird freezes up after I enter username, URL and password and won't let me go further); closed thunderbird and reopened; uninstalled Thunderbird and reinstalled; attempted to export my iCloud contacts and import them to Thunderbird (nothing happened). At this point I'm worried I may have to manually enter a whole new address book for Thunderbird by hand. That would likely be several hundred addresses. Anyone have any suggestions?
