I believe I've identified the problem and have released updates to gContactSync (2.0.11) and Contact Photos (1.1.12). If you need it to work before the update is reviewed you can disable all other add-ons and restart Thunderbird.

I think I found your post, and it was in the incorrect group (Other Add-ons instead of gContactSync) so I missed it. You probably chose to sync All Contacts And Groups. When you do this and create a new contact you must copy it into the My Contacts list in Thunderbird if you want it to show up in your default contacts list in Google. This has been addressed several times in the forums. There is an outstanding feature request to automatically add new contacts to a default group that will be in version 3 or 4.

If you only care about My Contacts, then I recommend only synchronizing that group.

I believe this has been resolved in the release channel since early January, and in 2.0.10 since mid February based on feedback from others in the forum. In all cases that I've looked into a different e-mail address was used in the account wizard than what was used to authenticate, causing Google to reject the token when used with the wrong e-mail address.

You waited 4 days for a response during the holiday season, which I'd consider very reasonable for a free product. I've been waiting well over a month so far to hear back from you on whether it worked, however... ;)

This is a limitation of Thunderbird, not gContactSync. It actually syncs 4 e-mail addresses: the two included in Thunderbird and two additional e-mail addresses that gContactSync adds. When I started working on this add-on there was a feature request for TB to add support for n phone numbers, e-mail addresses, etc. but it was never finished.

Merge support is experimental, though it works pretty well if your contacts have names and e-mail address fields filled in. Could you e-mail me with more details?

In the meantime Gmail has an excellent tool for removing duplicates. If that doesn't work you can revert your contacts to before the dups were made and sync with an empty address book.

EDIT: Read-only mode applies only *after* the first sync. Otherwise your contacts from TB wouldn't be sent to Google during the initial sync.
