The tool bar at the top disappeared (file, edit, view, favorites, tools etc). How do I get it back?

I even loaded the beta4 version to see if that would shake the apple out of the tree, and no luck. There appears to be no tab/button anywhere on the screen to bring it back

Be careful with using the Firefox 4 beta version on your current Firefox 3.6 profile folder as it can modify (upgrade) files and make them incompatible with Firefox 3.6 or can otherwise cause problems at a later time.
In Firefox 3.6 and later on Windows you can hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu on a toolbar.
Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

  • When I open Firefox there is absolutely no toolbar at the top. No 'File' 'Edit' 'View' 'Favorites' 'Tools' 'Help' buttons, no anything. Any idea's??

    When I open Firefox there is no toolbar at all. I have tried deleting and then re-downloading it, but when I click on the icon on my desktop, all that comes up is a page that says "Widgets, Gadgets, RSS feeds, and more." There is no search box to surf the web, there is nothing.

  • Why can't I find file,edit, view favorites, tools and help features?

    I downloaded firefox, but I can't see file,edit,veiw, favorites or tools. Why can I not see these items? and why does firefox crash so many times?

    To restore the menu bar see [[menu bar is missing]].
    For it crashing, the [[Firefox crashes]] article is a good starting place. If it submits crash reports to Mozilla, can you post some of the crash report IDs (the link above shows how to find them). The crash report IDs may help somebody identify the cause for your crashes.

  • I used to have task or shortcuts show up when I would right click on the FF Icon on the task bar. After installing 4.0 they are all gone. How do I get these back? or restore them to what they were?

    Win 7 task bar has a Fire Fox Icon. Before installing FF 4.0 I could right click on the Icon and it would show short cuts to various sights, which when clicked on would open that sight in FF.
    They are all gone now. What happened? Is there a way to get these back?

    A few hidden preferences to check to make sure that the jump lists are enabled:
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    # In the filter box type '''browser.taskbar.lists''' this should bring up a few preferences
    # To enable all parts of the jump list, make sure the following preferences are set to '''true''', if they are not double-click to them to change their value
    ## browser.taskbar.lists.enabled
    ## browser.taskbar.lists.frequent.enabled
    ## browser.taskbar.lists.recent.enabled
    ## browser.taskbar.lists.tasks.enabled

    F9. Some documents hide the menu bar deliberately, or you could have hit F9 by accident.

    You may have blundered into "Full Screen" mode, an abomination ported from iOS, the iPhone Operating System, land of tiny screens and one-at-a-time Applications.
    Try clicking the double-arrows in the extreme upper right of the MenuBar or Window.

    You may have accidentally put it in a folder instead of deleting it. Check all your folders to see if it is in one.

    i purchased songs via my ipod touch.  when I sync'd my ipod touch with my computer, the songs I purchased disappeared into a black hole... how do I get them back without having to repurchase? 

    On your iPod Touch, open the iTunes app. There should be tab named "purchased", which shows all your purchase history. Choose the "Not on this iPod" tab and you'll get a list of purchased products that are not on your device. Hope this helped.

    Did you backup the iPad first? If you did - restore from the backup in order to restore the photos in the Saved Album on your iPad. If the photos were synced to the iPad, then sync them back again via iTunes.
    How to backup and restore from a backup

    If you did backup first, you will be restoring your most recent backup and you should be OK. But know that when you restore from a backup, you restore everything that is in that backup onto the iPad .... All documents, device settings, all data and so on. You cannot just select photos to restore to the iPad. It's all or nothing.
