I just purchased a new laptop. I have copied my Address Books and all my Calendars to my new laptop. I was able to point my Thunderbird mail accounts to the mail folders I copied to the new laptop, but I do not see anywhere that I can tell Thunderbird to point the Address Books or the Calendars to a particular folder.

How do I change the default locations for the Address Books and Calendars?

Thanks, Lew

I also have a new laptop. I exported the address book from old computer to desktop and then I imported it. The Address book does NOT contain any of my groups (lists). Please help!

Thanks!

I found the following article on how to change the location of a calendar.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/changing-calendar-preferences

The only problem with this solution is that the Location text box can not be modified. The Location defaults to: moz-storage-calendar:// and I have no idea where this exists. I'm guessing that it is an alias since there is no folder anywhere on my computer with this name.

I have searched the Windows Registry for "moz-storage-calendar" but it is not found.

So, (1) where are the calendars stored by default and (2) how do I change that location to point to the calendars I copied from my old computer to my new computer?

Of course, I have the same questions for the Address Books. I have thousands of entries in my Address Books that I can not get to.

Thanks!
