00:00 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Address Book in Mozilla Thunderbird. |
00:06 | In this tutorial, we will learn how to add, view, modify and delete contacts from the Address Book. |
00:14 | We will also learn how to: |
00:16 | * Create a New Address Book. |
00:18 | * Delete an existing Address Book. |
00:20 | * Import contacts from other mail accounts. |
00:24 | Here we are using Mozilla Thunderbird 13.0.1 on Ubuntu 12.04. |
00:32 | What is an Address Book? |
00:34 | An address book works the same way as the Contacts feature in your mobile phone. |
00:39 | You can use the Address Book to create and maintain contacts. |
00:45 | There are two types of Address Books in Thunderbird: |
00:48 | Personal address book allows you to create new contacts. |
00:53 | Collected address book automatically collects the email addresses from outgoing or sent mails. |
00:59 | Click on the Thunderbird icon in the Launcher. |
01:02 | The Thunderbird window opens. |
01:05 | Now, let’s learn to add contacts in the Personal Address Book. |
01:10 | From the Main menu, click on Tools and Address Book. |
01:14 | The Address Book dialog-box appears. |
01:17 | In the left panel, you can see both the Personal and Collected Address Books. |
01:23 | By default, the Personal Address Book is selected in the left panel. |
01:28 | The right panel is divided into two parts. |
01:31 | The top half displays the contacts. |
01:34 | The bottom half displays the complete details of the contact selected at the top. |
01:40 | Let’s create a new contact. |
01:44 | In the toolbar, click New Contact. |
01:47 | The New Contact dialog-box appears. |
01:50 | Click the Contact tab. |
01:53 | Let’s enter first as "AMyNewContact". |
01:57 | Enter Email as USERONE at GMAIL dot COM. |
02:02 | Note that the field Display Name is automatically updated with the First Name. |
02:10 | Click the Private tab. Use this tab to store the complete postal address for the contact. |
02:18 | You can use the Work, Other and Photo tabs to store relevant information and even the photograph of the contact. |
02:26 | Click OK. |
02:29 | The contact is added and displayed in the right panel. |
02:34 | In the same manner, let’s add two more contacts "VMyNewContact" and "ZMyNewContact". |
02:48 | Let’s suppose we want to sort contacts by name. |
02:52 | From the Main Menu, click on View >> Sort by and Name. |
02:58 | Notice that the contacts are sorted in the ascending order, by default. |
03:04 | To sort it in the ascending order- from the Main Menu, click on View >> Sort by and Ascending. |
03:13 | Alternately, in the Address Book dialog-box, from the right panel, simply click on Name. |
03:19 | The names are now sorted in the descending order! |
03:24 | Now, let’s search for a contact. |
03:27 | We can search for a contact using the Name or the By Email. |
03:33 | Let’s search for the name "AMyNewContact". |
03:37 | Go to the Address Book dialog-box. |
03:40 | In the Search field, enter "AMyNewContact". |
03:45 | Notice, the Search field. |
03:47 | Instead of the Magnifying glass icon, a small cross icon is displayed. |
03:54 | Only the contact "AMyNewContact" is displayed in the top right panel. |
04:01 | Now, in the Search field, click the cross icon. |
04:05 | All the contacts are now visible in the top right panel. |
04:09 | Pause this tutorial and do this assignment. |
04:13 | Search for emails by Subject. |
04:16 | Suppose the contact information for "ZMyContact" has changed, |
04:21 | can we edit this information? Yes, we can! |
04:26 | From the right panel, let’s select ZMyNewContact. |
04:30 | Now, right-click for the context-menu and select Properties. |
04:36 | The Edit Contact for ZMyNewContact dialog-box appears. |
04:42 | Let’s change the name to "MMyNewContact". |
04:46 | Now, let’s change the field "Display Name" to "MMyNewContact". |
04:53 | We shall also add a Work Title and Department. |
04:57 | Click the Work tab. |
04:59 | In the Title, enter "Manager" and in Department, enter "HR". Click OK. |
05:06 | Look at the contact details in the bottom right panel. It has been updated. |
05:13 | Now, how can we delete unwanted contacts in Thunderbird? |
05:18 | First, select the Contact. |
05:20 | Right-click to view the context menu and click Delete. |
05:25 | A confirmation dialog-box appears. Click OK. |
05:30 | The contact is deleted and is no longer displayed on the contact list. |
05:37 | Thunderbird also allows you to create your own address book. |
05:41 | This is in addition to the two default books, that is, Personal Address Book and Collected Addresses. |
05:50 | Let’s create a new Address Book. |
05:53 | Remember, you must keep the Address Book dialog-box open. |
05:58 | From the Main menu, go to File, click New and select Address Book. |
06:04 | The New Address Book dialog-box appears. |
06:08 | In the Address Book Name field, type: "Office Contacts". Click OK. |
06:16 | The address book we created is displayed in the left panel. |
06:20 | You can use this address book in the same manner you use the default address books. |
06:28 | Pause this tutorial and do this assignment. |
06:31 | Create a new Address Book and add contacts to it. |
06:36 | Next, let’s learn to delete an Address Book. |
06:41 | Remember, when you delete an address book all the contacts associated with it are also deleted. |
06:50 | To delete the address book "Office Contacts" from the left panel, select it. |
06:56 | Right-click to view the context menu and select Delete. |
07:01 | A dialog-box requesting you to confirm the delete action appears. Click OK. |
07:10 | The address book is deleted. |
07:14 | Pause this tutorial and do this assignment. |
07:17 | Create a new address book called "Additional Office Contacts". |
07:22 | Use the Edit option in the Address Book toolbar. |
07:27 | Delete this address book. |
07:30 | From the Main menu in the Address Book dialog-box, select Edit and Search Addresses. |
07:37 | Use the Advanced Search option to search for addresses. |
07:43 | Thunderbird allows us to import contacts from other Mail accounts too. |
07:48 | This way we can update the contacts without losing their contact information. |
07:55 | Let’s import the contacts from our Gmail account. |
07:59 | First we open the Gmail account. |
08:02 | Open a fresh browser and then type the url: "www.gmail.com". Press Enter. |
08:12 | The Gmail home-page appears. |
08:15 | Enter the 'Username' as STUSERONE at gmail dot com. Enter your password. |
08:24 | Click Sign In. The Gmail window appears. |
08:29 | For the purposes of this tutorial, we have created four contacts in Gmail. |
08:35 | From the top-left of the Gmail window, click on GMail and Contacts. |
08:41 | The Contacts tab appears. |
08:44 | Click More and select Export. |
08:48 | The Export contacts dialog-box appears. |
08:51 | In the field "Which contacts do you want to export?", select All contacts. |
08:58 | In the field Which export format?, select Outlook CSV format. Click Export. |
09:06 | The Opening contacts.csv dialog-box appears. |
09:11 | Select Save File. Click OK. |
09:15 | The Downloads dialog-box appears. |
09:18 | This is the default folder in which the document is saved. |
09:23 | The file is saved as contacts.csv, in the default Downloads folder. |
09:30 | Close the Downloads dialog-box. |
09:34 | From the Main menu, click Tools and select Import. |
09:39 | The Import dialog-box appears. |
09:42 | Select Address Books. Click Next. |
09:47 | From the Select type of file list, click on Text file. Click Next. |
09:54 | Browse to Downloads folder. |
09:57 | Click the Select which types of files are shown button and select All Files. |
10:04 | Select contacts.csv. Click Open. |
10:10 | The Import Address Book dialog-box appears. |
10:14 | Ensure that the box First record contains field names is checked. |
10:20 | In this tutorial, we shall check and match only the First Name, Last Name and Primary Email fields. |
10:28 | And uncheck all the other fields from the left side. |
10:33 | The First Name on the left is already aligned with the First Name on the right. |
10:39 | You must use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to match Mozilla Thunderbird Address Book fields column on the left |
10:47 | with Gmail Record data to import column on the right. |
10:52 | Let’s select Last Name field on the left and click the Move Down button. |
10:58 | Notice that the Last Name on the Address Book fields column and the Last Name on the Record data to import column are now aligned. |
11:07 | Now, select Primary Email and click on the Move Down button until it is aligned to E-mail Address. Click OK. |
11:17 | A message that the address book has been imported is displayed. Click Finish. |
11:24 | The Gmail Address Book is imported to Thunderbird. |
11:28 | In the left panel of the Address Book dialog-box, a new folder contacts has been added. |
11:36 | Click on contacts. |
11:38 | The First names along with the email address are displayed. |
11:43 | We have imported the Gmail address book to Thunderbird! |
11:48 | Close the Address Book by clicking on the red cross on the top left corner of the dialog-box. |
11:55 | Finally, log out of Thunderbird. From the Main menu, click File and Quit. |
