My Thunderbird Ver 78 my unified emails vanish when I mouse over them

Since the new version, my unified emails vanish when I mouse over them and most times don't appear at all , The loading "blue circle " just keeps loading but no emails. In my normal inboxes it's all working ok. But I do like to have the emails come into one folder. I have looked around for answers and see many people have the same problem but can't find a fix. Can I rollback to a previous ver easily?
