New to Thunderbird - Just setting up the account. I have installed all my email accounts with no difficulties. I am unable to import address book which is a cvs file in my gmail account. I even made a copy of the CVS file and moved it to the desktop but the program couldn't find it. Can you help, please?

Chosen solution

In the main TB window, Tools/Import (press Alt if the Menu Bar with Tools is hidden), Address Books...Text files... select the csv file. You may have to move the input records up or down to match them with the TB fields.
