Add-ons Manager does not list add-ons

I have upgraded to Firefox 6.0. Since doing so the Add-ons manager does not display any add-ons (whether installed or those that have been disabled by the upgrade).

The Add-ons Manager simply shows a 'Loading' hourglass and no progress.

A number of my add-ons were not suited to Firefox 6.0 and were disabled during the upgrade process butsince the Manager screen doesn't load so I cannot see a precise list of those installed or those disabled. They are listed in the Troubleshooting Information.

Chosen solution

Make sure that the "Get Add-ons" tab isn't selected on the about:addons page.
You can click the Extensions tab to see the installed extensions.

Yes, the issue was not with the extensions but with the Add-ons tab. This tab wasn't loading.

But I resolved it all by using safe-mode with the extensions disabled and then reenabling them all and now the Add-ons tab seems to work too. ;)
