My Firefox browser is gone! My opening page is Yahoo but there is no browser for firefox, not even a 'back' button. What happened?

I am not sure how it happened but my browser is gone. I have just my Yahoo page (home page). I cannot type in a website address. Not even a back button.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-to-use-full-screen
If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key to make the menu bar appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
*Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize"

  • I am trying to set my Persona back to the Firefox default. I have followed the instructions and have gone to Tools-Add Ons-Themes but there is no selection for Default for Firefox. I've spent over an hour on this. Please help. Thanks!

    I want to remove the Persona I selected and return to the Firefox default. I have outlined the issue above. I have followed the instructions in the FAQ's. There is no selection for Default for Firefox.

    Do you see that persona on the Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes page?
    Does that persona have an uninstall button?
    If that doesn't help the reset the lightweightThemes on the <b>about:config</b> page
    lightweightThemes.isThemeSelected -> false
    lightweightThemes.usedThemes -> (empty string)
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

    Make absolutely certain that FireFox is designated as your default browser.
    Do this: Tools / Options / Advanced / Check Now / correct the setting
    OR right click on any shortcut icon / Open With / Choose Default Program / select desired Browser / check Always... box / OK

  • TS1702 i open Pages on Ipad but cannot open my documents

    i open Pages on Ipad but cannot open my documents

    Try this. It worked for me.
    I discovered the same problem.  I had an older version of Pages on my iPad. After updating it to the latest version all my previous documents created in pages for the iPad were rendered unreadable and a message stated that they were an invalid format.  Why for the life of me would a program that was created by Apple and sense updated not be able to read previous versions...well that's a whole other sad story.  Any way I discovered how to fix it but it would require that you had backup your iPad on a computer and not emptied your trash. If this sounds good than here is how you fix it... And it worked for me.
    These steps will enable you to reinstall a previous version of the Pages app so you can be able to read and edit older documents.
    FIRST: if you did backup your iPad using your computer and did not empty your trash, GOTO the trash and look for PAGES 1.4 (or other number) ipa ( that's the file extension) ie PAGES 1.4 ipa.
    SECOND: move that file out of the trash and onto your desktop.  Once you do this, double click on it and a box will come up stating a newer version has been found and do you want to revert back to older version. ANSWER YES. It will than automatically place and overwrite the older version back into the file on iTunes that contains the rest of your backed up apps.
    THIRD: and this is where it is important that your backup would have to have been on your computer. I'm not sure if backup on the cloud will work.  iCloud backup at your own risk And here's why. Before you restore you will need to remove the latest version of Pages off your iPad by doing the usual : holding down the home button until the apps wiggle and remove by pressing on X on app.  Removing off your iPad will also delete all your documents but if you have a previous backup on your computer those documents will be stored safely on itunes and will return.
    FORTH: plug your iPad into your computer and allow it to sync so iTunes will recognize it. Once iTunes is up and you can see that it recognizes your iPad, GOTO "FILE/DEVICES/RESTORE FROM BACKUP."  ******* DO NOT CLICK ON BACKUP***** click on RESTORE FROM BACKUP. This will reinstall all previous settings and documents that were their when you backuped PLUS the older version of Pages that you placed back from the above steps. Let it run through all the setups ( this could take up to 20 minutes...depending on amount of data and photos and apps).
    FIFTH: Once everything is reinstalled a message will popup on your computer stating "to leave iPad plugged in until iTunes recognizes it again" ( it's basically rebooting itself).  Once done (leave iPad plugged in still) GOTO iPad and follow the steps. IMPORTANT:  iPad will ask you if you want to SET IT UP AS A NEW IPAD, BACK UP FROM THE CLOUD or BACK UP FROM ITUNES.....press SET UP AS NEW IPAD. Follow all of the steps required. Once complete GOTO iTunes on computer, look for "IPAD" plus a little arrow ( should be on upper right corner of iTunes window, click on it ( this will safely disconnect your iPad from iTunes) . Now unplug iPad from computer and go to your iPad and look for the older version of Pages. It should be there along with all your old documents ( readable and editable too).
    Hope this helps. Good luck.

    Also, unwanted down volume change, by pressing of the volume button, can happen in many ways such as in a pocket, carrying it in your hand, passing the phone around, lots of ways. 
    As far as the phone is locked, the volume key will not function .. so this should not affect the volume level.

  • My iPhone has backed up to iCloud but when I open iCloud on my PC there is no option for photos.

    My iPhone has becked up to iCloud but when I open iCloud on my PC there is no option for photos. I have no idea where they are saved. Help?

    You can't view pictures on icloud.com, and you can't view anything in your backup without restoring it to your device.  If you want to view pictures on the web, you have to add them to a shared stream with the Public Website option enabled (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99).  This will give you a private url to view them from your browser.

  • HT201380 Yesterday this was automatically installed.  Today I can't access a document in Pages.  A prompt says I need a Pages update.  But the next screen tests for updates and informs me everything is up to date.  What's up?

    Yesterday this was automatically installed.  Today I can't access a document in Pages.  A prompt says I need a Pages update.  But the next screen tests for updates and informs me everything is up to date.  What's up?

    It's highly unlikely that the Pages update problem has anything to do with the ARD client update, since the client is not involved in any way with Software Update. I'd suggest asking for assistance with the update problem in the forum appropriate for your version of Mac OS X.
    Regards.

  • Upon launching Firefox, the opening page shows an area where I can search for info, but the search button does nothing.

    The opening page shows 2 things: a search bar and restore previous session. When I try to use the search bar, nothing happens.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See:
    * [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting&#58; Make a new profile]]
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • When I open Firefox it just says firefox on the upper left corner and apperas to be open on the dock but there are no windows anywhere.HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    One day randomly for no reason whatsoever, I opened up firefox on my mac and it just said firefox on the upper left as if it was open. the little upside down triangle appeared below the icon on the dock, like it was open. However, there are no windows anywhere. I click file and new window and nothing.
    I right click the firefox icon on the dock and it says that there windows for example, my home page, but there is NOTHING.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled and it keeps doing the same thing.
    Your website has NO SUPPORT whatsoever and it has taken me a half hour clicking around to get to this portion where I can write what the issue is and no one will ever probably see this so whats the point. I guess I'm stuck with fucking safari now.
    Firefox had been working great up to this point, I literally opened it the other day and this happened just completely random.

    Hello,
    Sorry you are frustrated. If you have improvements you would like to make, you can file them to the [[Suggestion Box]] and the Firefox logo in the top left with upside down arrow is the Firefox button containing menu items. Try a clean reinstall as instructed below to see if it resolved your issue.
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
