You have to check each of the extensions in turn for updates to work with the new version.
BTW - where did you get V1.5 - - I have upgraded earlier this week, and it went to V1.0.6?0 -

If you go to tools and etensions and then click on "find updates" in the new window it will find any updates assuming there are some.
Often you find thsi problem with a new version that it takes a while for extension updates to coem on. I bene waiting for an update for spellbound although it works it will only show a small window for spellchecker.0 -
Extension updated never show up on the official Mozilla site for a long time after the're made (this is a constant annoyance to developers)
If you click through to the homepage for each extension you'll almost always find an update for 1.5
If something still doesn't work, you could install this extension.
This lets you mark extensions as compatible even though they aren't (It just re-labels the extension as compatible). I found it works 8/10 times. I know it looks techie but all it does is give you an extra option to 'make compatible' when viewing the extension list and installing new extensions0 -
Still can't do it with webmailcompose
Another problem I am no longer able to move my bookmarks from the bookmark toolbar onto the navigtion toolbar, with doing this I only had 2 rows instead of 30 -

The webmail compose from here works for me with 1.5:

Sorry for asking the obvious, but are you clicking customize before trying to move the bookmarks toolbar?

I installed the 1.5, and in the "About" it now says I am on version 1.0.7
