I use Google Calendar and contact functions and have done so for a long time so I have a large number of contacts set up already. Is it possible to import from Google into my new Thunderbird account?

You can create a CSV export from gmail.com and import to Thunderbird. You can also use the Google addressbook in Thunderbird by adding as a CardDAV link.

In Address Book, select New Address Book, Add CardDAV Address Book, enter the gmail address for Username, Continue..., enter the account password in the OAuth window to allow access, select the Google address book.
