Manually sort folders

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

On TB 115 you can use the beta 3.2 from the github page (see: github.com/protz/Manually-Sort-Folders/issues/199). Thank a lot for the Add-On, I use it since some 10 years :)

FoxToPhone

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Installed this Add-On with expectations, installed the old apk from Google Play and set it up on my Samsung S4 with CM12.1 but it doesn't work.
I get this: "Fetching request token failed. Status 404"

I installed then also the Chrome extension and here I get the well-known bug (issue 319) when I try to login, a empty page with only:
Redirect...
Nothing happens after, no redirect coming.

No, this has nothing to do with the time zone, I guess it is broken and as the development has stopped for a while, that was it.
I will uninstall it.

Provider for Google Calendar

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Thank you for this Add-On, I use it since long with lightning.
Since some days I noticed that there is no entry anymore and I read here about it. I just needed to delete the google calendar in Lightning and recreate it, then I was asked to allow the Add-On to edit the Google calendar and again it worked.
It is a new system now, previously access was through the XML string in the calendar settings on google, now it is through a session string I guess.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0.2). 

Folderpane Tools

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

This Add-On is now forever broken, it seems.
So I looked around and like another here posted (user "RDL"), the only reason why I used Folderpane Tools was to set the Local Folder on top position.

Always I used the much better Add-On "Manually Sort Folders", which I thought just could not set the Local Folder on the first position, but this wrong!

It only has to be set as Default Folder (on the first tab right side in the middle) and after TB restart the Local Folder is the top one.
See this on github: https://github.com/protz/Manually-Sort-Folders/issues/30

So no need at all to fix this Folderpane Tools, just use the Manually Sort Folders Add-On for good :)

Contact Tabs

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Sehr nützliches Add-On um die verstaubte Bearbeitungsmöglichkeit von Thunderbirds Kontakten erheblich zu erweitern.
Version 2.0.4 hat ein kleines Problem mit dem Chat-Tab, aber das wird bald behoben.

When installed with neglecting the TB version this extension seems to work, but doesn't.

German Dictionary, classical spelling standards

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Bei mir stand erst:

"Nicht verfügbar für Thunderbird 2.0.0.23"

Ich musste dann in den Thunderbird Einstellungen (about:config) die Einstellung für: "general.useragent.override" auf den Standardwert zurücksetzen, dann ging es wieder.

Danke für das Add-On.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.1.8). 

Google+ Tab

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

This is the message (german) I get:

"Ihr Browser wird nicht mehr unterstützt.

Ihr Browser wird von Google+ nicht mehr unterstützt. Bitte aktualisieren Sie Ihren Browser. Weitere Informationen"

This means that the browser (Thunderbird 17 inline Browser) is not supported anymore.

Please fix this Add-On for Thunderbird 17

Thanks.

Edit Bookmark Plus

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

This Add-On is not doing much.
The only interesting feature is the resize of the bookmark PopUp Window.
I had previously "Add Bookmark here" but this is broken at the moment with Firefox 16, the folders don't expand, so I tried this Add-On.
Unfortunately there is no description and no shortcut field, two of the most important fields I know from Add Bookmarks Here.
So uninstall and waiting for a fix on Add Bookmarks Here :(

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.2.3.1-signed). 

MinimizeToTray Plus

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

There is no way to fix this "MinimizeToTray Plus 1.0.8 could not be installed because it is not compatible with Sunbird 1.0b1." and codefisher.org is dead as well.
This is really annoying. I updated to Sunbird 1.0b1 from 0.9 and now my calendar is not anymore compatible, but without MinimizeToTray I dont want Sunbird.

This user has a previous review of this add-on.

MinimizeToTray Plus

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

And it is NOT WORKING for Sunbird 1.0b1!!!
When installing I get:
"MinimizeToTray Plus 1.0.8 could not be installed because it is not compatible with Sunbird 1.0b1."
Change in the rdf-file didn't help anything, it just doesn't work.
Support forum is dead I guess.

Saved Password Editor

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Very useful Add-On!I use it in FF and TB.
A thing what could be better: normally when using this Add-On i want to see the password. So each time i open it, i have to additionally click the Button 'Show Passwords'. At least the cursor jumps to the default 'OK', but there could be a setting to show it initially.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.5.3).

Like the others said: i wouldn't install an Add-On if i don't know what it does.

SyncPlaces

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Could be exactly what i was looking for.But makes problems when there is a .htaccess-file in the folder, reached by ftp.Didn't synchronize at all Firefox-Bookmarks on two different machines ("Ungültige oder zerstörte Lesezeichen empfangen").Giving up.
EDIT 2011-05-14: After switching from JSON to XBEL the above problem was solved.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (4.0.7). 

MinimizeToTray

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

You have to open the xpi with e.g. 7zip, WinRar, Winzip etc. and edit the install.rdf.
Write:
3.*
where you find something like 2.*
Save the changes and zip it again to the xpi.
Now you can install it.
You also can use Mr. Tech Toolkit to disable the compatibility-check, but this is unclean.

CheckPlaces

Very useful!
Great Addon!
Thank you!
I didn't know that so many of my bookmarks were out of date :-)

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.3.1).
