Firefox does not display the basic menu line File Edit View etc. How do I get this menu to show. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but that does not help
When I ask for help finding bookmarks, the answer tells me to click on bookmarks as shown in the illustration, but there is no such line displayed on my computer.
'''''"Firefox does not display the basic menu line File Edit View etc."''''': That is the Menu Bar; see below.
'''<u>Menu Bar</u>''' (File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help)<br /> <u>Firefox 3.6.x versions allow the user to hide the Menu Bar.</u><br />
*Tap the ALT key or the F10 key, Menu Bar will display, click View, click Toolbars, click Menu Bar to place a check mark next to it, '''''OR'''''
*Press and hold the ALT key while pressing the letters VTM on your keyboard, then release the ALT key
*See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Menu+bar+is+missing
'''<u>Other Toolbars</u>''', see: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Back+and+forward+or+other+toolbar+items+are+missing<br />
'''<u>Status Bar</u>''': click View, click Status Bar to place a check mark<br />
'''<u>Full Screen Mode</u>''': If you have no Toolbars or Tab Bar: Press F11 (F11 is an on/off toggle). See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Netbooks#Full_screen<br />

Hi Brett 949,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has steps you can take for the error you're seeing:

I updated my Itunes the other day and now, when clicking on the itunes icon, the program does not open?? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, resetting the computer, checking permissions, running as adminstrator.. nothing is working?? Help!!
Amazing steps you've done so far! The great news is this is very unlikely an issue with your iPhone.
I've run into a similar issue lately as well. I narrowed it down to one song that was causing 30 songs not to sync. I removed the song from the sync list (unchecked it) and all 29 songs were able to sync.
You may be running into a similar issue. This may be a problem with this version of iTunes, an issue with one song or a group of songs; hard to know for sure. It's important to narrow down and isolate the cause. Most imporantly get that music back on there!
The way to narrow down the casue add just a few songs at a time (even 1, just to get that first sync finished). Manually syncing is what you'll need here.
Plug in your iPhone, on the Summary screen (shows a picture of your iPhone, the iOS version, Restore iPhone....; etc). Under the Options area at the bottom choose to Manually Manage Videos and Music then choose Apply in the lower right. The music that's on your iPhone now should be removed from your iPhone now. You're now able to sync music manually.
The link below explains how to drag the songs from the iTunes library on the computer on to your iPhone which will start the sync. Add just one song just to see if you can get 1 of those hundreds of songs on there. If you can, awesome! Keep adding until you find the song or group of songs that are causing this issue.

Please let me know how things are going.

I have tried to open Firefox, but it just sits there and doesn't load. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall but that works for a few hours and then it goes back to not loading. I don't know what else to do to get it too load.
Right-click on your Windows Taskbar and select Start Task Manager. Look in Task Manager for processes running that are Firefox-related, such as Firefox.exe or plugin-container.exe. If you see either of those, right-click each of them and select "End process". Then try again to start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. <br /><br />
*If Firefox will start in Safe Mode, select the option you are presented with to disable your add-ons and plug-ins and restart Firefox normally. You likely have a plug-in, add-on, or a combination of two or more that is causing the problem. Because Firefox allows users to customize endlessly, sometimes there can be conflicts between customized items. From the Firefox menu bar, go to<br /><br />Tools -> Add-ons<br /><br />then re-enable them one by one, restarting Firefox after each and testing after each one to see which one or combination of two or more is causing the problem. <br /><br />
*If Firefox will not start in Safe Mode, make sure you again check Task Manager and end any running instances, then uninstall Firefox and download a fresh copy from mozilla.org/firefox using another browser temporarily. Re-install Firefox (see: [[Installing Firefox on Windows]] for more help ) and try running Firefox again.
Please report back your progress. -
Last week firfox suddenly stopped working. I have uninstalled and reinstalled but still will not repsond. But when I have tried to uninstall it says it can't because it is running, but in task manager there is no indication in the window firefox is running.

I have Adobe Pro X and use a PC. My menu toolbar (file, edit, view, etc) is missing. I tried to reset the toolbars and nothing happened.
Press the F9 key to toggle the menu bar on and off. A PDF can contain a setting that will hide the menu bar automatically, which I find very annoying, but you can turn this off with the following preference: Edit > Preferences > Documents > Allow documents to hide the menu bar...

My ipod touch has lost touch with my itunes account. I appear to have lost all my audiobooks from itunes and a nook I downloaded from audible.com last week is on my itunes but I cannot syn it to my ipod. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes but this did not work and I now have a different screen with itunes which I am not familiar with. I need my ipod for audiobooks and podcasts because I have a visual impairment.
iTunes 11 does some thinks differently. See:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
or
iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
Also
If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar -
In Pages when I click the 'Sections' button then click on the 1st page I get a page that is titled "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"! Where did it come from and how do I get rid of it? I have tried deleting and "dont save" but it comes back. It is a full page in some unknown language. The only thing I can decifer is 'cupy uf cak'. Rdal
Roger,
The icon is +Sections, not just Sections, as in "Add a Section". When you click that icon you get a section break and and a new section template, complete with preformatted text called placeholder text. The reason "Lorem ipsum" is there is so you can see what the format looks like. The reason that it is Latin gibberish is so you won't get hung up on, or distracted by, what it says. It's just a display of format. Select the "Lorem ipsum" text and start typing your content.

After updating to iOS7 on my iPhone 4 I cannot enable location services. How do I enable location services? I have tried turning off restrictions but that did not work.
I finally just resolved this after not being able to enable location services since upagrading to iOS 7. Posting the solution here 'cause I couldn't find it anywhere else.
I enabled Restrictions under Settings > General > Restrictions and created a passcode (I'm not sure if this was part of the solution, but it wasn't enabled for me by default.)
In Restrictions, under Privacy, Location Services was set to "Allow Changes" (This still didn't solve the issue of the greyed-out Location Services switch though - I still couldn't turn it on.)
Also in Restrictions, I also switched "Find My Friends" to "Allow Changes"
Once I did step 3, the switch under Settings > Privacy > Location Services was no longer greyed out and could be switched on.
Hope this helps! -
