How do I get TBird to browse for the CSV file that I want to IMPORT? The Import Wizard is blank when it says Import . . . From: It gives me nothing to choose from. What directory does my CSV file need to be in?

Chosen solution

Open the Address Book window.

Select Tools-Import

Click Address Book in the first window that opens and then Next.

Select Text File in the window that opens and then Next.

A file system navigation window should be the next item that opens. Navigate to where you stored the file and select it.
