autofill not working on thunderbird

This is a MAJOR problem. I need my auto fill to work or I will drop Thunderbird. This is a deal killer. Please respond IMMEDIATELY.

The problem turns out to be Card Book. Any suggestions other than disabling it.

autofill of what - password, email address, xxxx?

Somewhat unlikely to be caused by Thunderbird. Does it reproduce in Help > Troubleshoot Mode?

THE LAST UPDATE SCREWED EVERYTHING UP . . . . FOR MAC OSX WITH THE NEW MAC OSX UPDATE. BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM, NOTHING WORKS RIGHT WITH THUNDERBIRD AUTO FILL.

PLEASE FIX IT.

Autofill doesn't work at all.

It cannot be caused by another application. Not possible.

None of the email address load from the address books.

You are on to something . . . it does work in trouble shoot mode

Now what do I do??

It still does not work in regular mode.

Read https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-mode-thunderbird#w_starting-thunderbird-in-troubleshoot-mode, and pay particular attention to what it says about add-ons.

Please be open to people providing replies here. And please don't yell with CAPS. Thanks.
