Chosen solution

Hi

If you open your Address Book, select All Address Books on the left hand side, then select Tools, then Export, you have the ability to save the address book in a format you can restore at a later date.

If you wish to make a paper copy of your address book, select the address book in question (or All Address Books), then select File where you will be able to see Print Address Book and Print Preview Address Book options.

If you are looking to back up your emails and calendar entries, you may wish to take a back up of your Thunderbird Profile. You can read how to do this here.

I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.
