I've installed Thunderbird on new computer, and moved over from the old computer emails and Address Books (including customized ones). But when I start a new message, I can't get any e-addresses to appear in the To box.
What do I need to do to access Addresses?

I have previous ask questions on how to transfer profiles, local folders, sent messages, and all address from my old Windows 10 PC to a new Windows 11 PC. "David" provided a very help way to transfer the profiles between machines which helped immensely. However, I still do not seem to have the address book file(s).
Here is where I am and what I would like to be able to do.
When I first installed Thunderbird on the new PC, I set it up as an IMAP account with comcast.net. The contacts in the address book were showing. When I copied my Thunderbird profile from the old PC to get my Local Folders, the address book was gone. I repeated the install process and copying process to make sure I was not making an error. The results were the same each time.
What I would like to do is to find and directly copy the address file(s) from the old PC to the new. Is this possible and where are they located?
Thank you in advance to the time and patience to answer my question.

Hi ,
Have just joined the Thunderbirds, after two disasterous crashes of eM Client, when I lost 10 years of my emails etc.
My PC's run Win 7 (yes I know everyone says I should upgrade(?) to a later version of Windows, but I'm very happy with 7 and Thunderbird works brilliantly on it) and I'm just getting used to Thunderbird.
However, maybe it's my age or lack of observation, but I canot find a way to import my contacts, which are in a folder on my C: drive. (A later and larger database in eM Client is isolated on a pen drive with the rest of eM Client's .dat files, which neither eM Client or ChatGPT can help me restore.) Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
John
