I recently updated to version 78 of Thunderbird. I was using gContactSync (which is no longer compatible). I have switched to TBSync.

Now my question:

In my Thunderbird Address Book. I have my contacts in groups/folders. i.e. Family, Friends, and Business. In my Google account I have the same set up but with labels. I had to do a lot of messing about to get gContactSync to maintain the groups.

I am concerned if I turn on the sync in TBSync for the Address Book that it will trash one or both the address books in Thunderbird and in Google! Would this happen?

Also what is the difference (in TBSync) between 'Contacts' and 'Address Book'? Contacts seems to be read only.

Thanks.
