Any quick easy solution for this? Thanks. Ken

Quit all applications. Click on an empty spot on the desktop to activate Finder.
Hold the “Option” key down and click the "Go" menu in the Finder menu bar.
Select “Library” from the drop down.
Look for this file.
Library > Preferences > com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
Right click it and select "Move to Trash". Close Finder window.
Restart. Launch Safari.
Hope you do not have MacKeeper installed.

View webpages in full screen
In many applications on the Mac, including Safari, you can expand the window to fill your entire screen. You can make a webpage full-screen with one click, and switch to another webpage (or full-screen window in another application) with a swipe of the trackpad.
IMPORTANT:Viewing in full screen, and the Mission Control feature, are available only if you have Mac OS X v10.7 Lion or later. For information on upgrading Mac OS X, go to the Mac OS X website.

To enlarge a webpage so it uses the screen, click the arrows in the top-right corner of an application window:
To move from one window to another in full screen view, swipe left and right, or press the arrow keys on your keyboard.
To return to standard view, click the arrows in the window’s upper-right corner:
If you prefer viewing webpages in full screen, Mission Control lets you see everything running on your Mac, including your full screen windows. Mission Control presents your full screen windows as thumbnail images, making it easy for you to move from one to another.

The bar that says "File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, help" has disappeared and I would like it to appear all the time.

Near the top of the screen on the left side, the words "File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, help" does not appear consistently. Sometimes if I hit "alt" they will appear. I would like to keep those words to appear constantly. Let me know what I can do. Thanks

You can add a solid color theme to change the color of the top of the browser window, which includes the Menu Bar.

Why does the fire fox page change, sometimes it is just an orange fire fox button and othr times it says file, edit, view History, bookmarks, tools, help? I barely learn how to run one version of the page and then it changes

Why does the fire fox page change, sometimes it is just an orange fire fox button on the top left that opens a panel with all the things listed in it and then it sometimes has a bar across the top that says File, Edit, View, History, bookmarks, tools, Help? I barely get used to using one type of set up and then it changes to the other without me doing anything??

I have Firefox 7.0.1 and i need the task "File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help" in German

Since last week i Have the version 7.0.1 and its in english. How can i get it in German? I mean "File, Edit etc."

To have the Firefox interface including all menus and built-in features in a different language you need to simply install the different localized version. Note that you will not lose any of your data by simply reinstalling Firefox. You can download Firefox in any supported language here:

Where is my missing toolbar with - file, edit, view, history, bookmarks, tools & help. Where has it gone and how do I get it back?

I am missing the tool bar which goes directly underneath the blue Mozilla/Firefox banner. My other tool bar remains unchanged eg. back/forward buttons, refresh page button, etc. are still there and work normally. Where are my bookmarks and how do I get them back?

With Firefox 3.6.2 you are a few versions behind on updates. You should update to the latest Firefox version via Help > Check for updates.

After several hours of inactivity, the tabs are blank with noway to tell them apart without clicking on them. also the menu bar is there but the words 'File Edit View History Bookmarks Tools Help' are blank. also the drop down menus are blank.

The links are there. I can click on them. I'm just can not see what I'm clicking on. The info on the tabs comes back but only when I click on that tab. rebooting every 24 hours fixes the problem temporarily.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

My tool bar is now (file edit view history bookmark tools help) is a dark grey with black letters, very hard to read as is the Firefox bar above it

above details issue

Choose another theme/persona OR switch to the "Default" theme.

In 3.6 my File, Edit, View, History, Bookmark etc tabs have disappeared and I'm unable to retrieve them

Suddenly yesterday I lost my File,Edit,View,History, Bookmark,Tools & Help tabs/bar. When I lost them I gained a "Most Visited" tab & a Mozilla/Firefox "Getting Started" tab. I've tried to correct by using system restore with no success, Any suggestions??

Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.
Hit the '''Alt''' key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark. 
The F10 can also be used on most PC's to temporarily reveal the Menu bar.

hi, i have lost the bar at the top of the screen, which has file, edit, view, history, bookmarks, tools, help, how do i get it back please, will br gratefull fo any answers.

How do I get back the File Edit View History Bookmarks Yahoo! Tools Help that used to be at the top of the browser window above the taps

how do I get back the "File Edit View History Bookmarks Yahoo! Tools Help" line of text that I could click on for options that used to be at the top of the browser window above the taps

I did that (I think I did) however the confusion is that I get only part of the menu and not the most important menu items like "file" "edit" etc. with all the drop downs. It is so freaky - my other computers have no problem like this and I and show the menu bar or not just like you described. I really doubt anyone really understands my problem with it. I took some screen shots of the good computer version and the bad one so someone can "see" exactly what I am seeing. This may be a one of a kind gremlin issue, LOL. Anyway, without those menu items, I am very limited on the usefulness of FireFox on that computer so I have to rely more on Chrome for those features and use the FireFox with Billeo and other tools that still work. Someday it may magically fix itself, LOL.
Of the two images, one is the good computer and the other is the bad. The bad one shows the only way to see the menu items however they disappear after I am done with the custom menu and no other time can I get the items to "appear" it is like they are there but cannot get them to show when in the normal menu bar mode.

I downloaded Firefox 3.6 and now my tool bar is gone. No back arrows, forward arrows, file, edit, view, history, bookmark, tools....how do I get my web browser to look like a regular browser again?

I downloaded the new Mozilla web browser and I had a Bing homepage setting. I changed back to yahoo but I ever since downloading I dont have any back arrows, forward arrows, file, edit, view, history, bookmark, tools, address bar....how do I get my web browser to look like a regular browser again?

For details of how to restore the menus see [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/menu+bar+is+missing]
Once the menus are back, you can use the View menu, then select Toolbars and click on the names of the toolbars to toggle displaying them.
