It still works that way. What is keeping you from doing that?

If you just drag and drop it moves the contact from one book to another. To copy you need to hold the control key while doing it. A plus sign will appear to indicate a copy instead of a move.

This doesn't work for me, but it did before.. Is there some specific setting that must be selected?

No. Can you drag and drop in other applications?

You are just trying to drag and drop the contacts and not the entire folder correct?

When was the last time you closed Thunderbird and rebooted your computer?
