How to drag-or-copy contact list from one TB address book to another TB address book?
1. Backed up my Personal Address Book into an LDIF file - OK
2. Blew away my TB instance and started fresh - OK
3. Importing Personal Address Book.ldif created a 2nd Personal Address Book - BAD
4. Blew away my TB instance and started fresh again - OK
5. Renamed Personal Address Book.ldif as Personal Address Book BU.ldif and imported - OK
6. Was able to drag individual address book contacts from Personal Address Book BU to Personal Address Book, but not the contact lists.
Please advise. I have over 20 lists and not about to recreate them by hand. Why aren't the lists drag-able like the contacts?

Why aren't the lists drag-able like the contacts?
All contacts are actually stored in the Personal Address Book BU. sub groups to an address book are called 'Mailing lists'.
What you can do is to recreate the 'Mailing list' name in the 'Personal Address Book'. So if you had a Mailing list called 'Personal' : Select 'Personal Address Book'. click on 'new list' Give list a name eg: 'Personal' and click on OK
Then select the 'Personal' Mailing List from 'Personal Address Book BU.' highlight all contacts Drag and drop them into the new Mailing List located in 'Personal Address Book'.
drag and drop does not work in addressbook
Not sure where you are dragging to...you cannot drag and drop into the List window.
In the images below, I have selected the 'Personal address book' I then highlighted contacts I wish to put in the Mailing list. Then use drag and drop method to drag them to the left and hover over the Mailing List name eg: Test, which is shown as a sub group to Personal address book.
thanks, drag and drop did not work after select all contacts and did not move the contacts to the other address book. it did only copy when select part of book and drag. this way it does move (and not copy) I did manage to do the job by selecting parts. Job done.
