Good morning I have updated Thunderbird to the lastest version 115.6.0 (64-bit) on my Mac with Ventura 13.3.1 (22E261) and now I can not see my mailboxes and folders. Have tried everything - nothing works. Rest bookmarks work. Contacts and other functions. I can create and send letters from any of my mailboxes, I can search letters in all mailboxes in search field, but I can not see on the left bookmark nothing - empty list of mailboxes. I have download the program again, reinstalled, changed Thunderbird file in Programms - same thing. Please help.

Please try this and report back on results. On the original profile....

In Thunderbird

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information
  • Under 'Application Basics' half way is Profile folder - click on 'Open Finder'

A new window opens showing contents of profile name folder.

  • Exit Thunderbird now.
  • Locate the file called 'folderCache.json'
  • Please rename this file as 'folderCache.json.old' - so you still have it but it's just not going to be used.

Thunderbird will create a new one when you restart.

  • When you want to start Thunderbird - use the right click on Thunderbird shortcut and click on the 'Run as administrator' option - I'm using Windows OS - not sure what you see on a Mac. I'm not suggesting you use that method of starting as a rule from now onwards - just this once.

Please report on results.
