All of a sudden, can't find the firefox tab(with arrow)to view bookmarks, history,etc

'''bold text'''
At the upper left corner there used to be a firefox tab with an arrow. When clicked, we could find our history tab, bookmark tab,etc. It is now missing.

Please give the following a try, in order, until resolved:
Turn AirPort (OS X) on & off: You do this via the AirPort icon on the OS X menu bar.
Make sure your internal AirPort card's firmware is up to date: You can check by going to the Software Update menu.
Delete and recreate your wireless connection in System Preferences > Network.
Create a new Network Location in System Preferences > Network. Log off / log on, and then, try using the new location.
Change the DHCP auto setting to manual on the Mac via System Preferences > Network > Wireless. Manually enter an IP address outside of the DHCP range in use. For example if your AirPort is providing IP addresses in the 10.0.1.2 - 10.0.1.200 range (the default), choose 10.0.1.201 for your Mac. Also enter the appropriate DNS servers on the DNS tab.
Flush the DNS cache: Lauch Terminal and enter the following: dscacheutil - flushcache
Reset the PRAM: Reboot your Mac and hold down the Command+Option+P+R keys during restart until you hear a second chime, then let the Mac boot as usual.
Delete the wireless configuration files: Go to ~/Library/Preferences. Delete com.apple.interntconfigpriv.plist and com.apple.internetconfig.plist. Reboot your Mac.
Delete your Home directory's SystemConfiguration folder: Go to /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/. Move the SystemConfiguration folder to the desktop. Restart your Mac. (Note: OS X will rebuild the files that are now sitting on your desktop. If this doesn't resolve the issue, you can move the folder back to it's original location.)
Finally, try resetting your Mac's System Management Controller (SMC): Shutdown the MacBook Pro, remove the battery, disconnect from power (if connected), and then, hold down the power button for 15 seconds. Replace the battery, reconnect to power, and then, reset the PRAM (per the previous step).

  • I can't find the Firefox tab that takes me to edit and print et al. unless I have a little bitty screen.

    I just got a new computer and got changed to windows 8, and the guy set it up with internet explorer when I was accustomed to using firefox. My son put it on firefox, but I can't find the firefox tab with access to edit, print, print preview, etc. , except when I have the firefox box on three quarters of the screen, which is too small. How do I get it to fill up the screen and still give me the little box so I can print? Please don't answer with an avalanche of gibberish, because my computer understanding is negligible.

    Hi Senyax, how are you enlarging Firefox when you want it larger? These will give you different results:
    (1) Maximize the window (middle button between _ and X)
    You should still be able to see the top bar of the window with the orange Firefox button. If you can't see any of it, one of your Firefox settings files might be corrupted.
    (2) Full screen (F11 key or orange Firefox button > Full Screen)
    By default, nothing other than the website shows in full screen mode. Although you can have the tab bar and toolbar display (slide your mouse to the top of the screen and right-click a blank area of the tab bar, then uncheck "Hide Toolbars"), you cannot use the orange Firefox menu button in this mode.

  • I have one folder with several projects all of which Aperure can not find the original.  I do not use referenced files.  I can't make any adjustments like cropping etc. What can I do to print any of these photos?

    I have one folder with several projects all of which Aperure can not find the original.  I do not use referenced files.  I can't make any adjustments like cropping etc. What can I do to adjust or print any of these photos?  IO have no ther projects with this problem.  My Aperture Library is automatically saved to two external drives.

    I have one folder with several projects all of which Aperure can not find the original.
    Have you checked inside your Aperture library, if the original files are still there?
    Try to find out, when the images in those projects have been originally imported, then open the Aperture library by ctrl-clicking it and using the command "Show package contents" from the pop-up menu. In the window that will open, select the folder "Masters" and browse the contents. You need to find the subfolder with the year you imported the images, then the folders with the month and the day.
    Are your original files still there?
    If yes, copy them to a folder on your desktop for safe-keeping, and then try, if repairing the permissions and the other Furst Aid tools will help Aperture to connect to these missing files again - see this link:  Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library: Aperture 3 User Manual
    If the First Aid Tools don't help, then check, if Aperture has moved the missing images to a "recovered folder". If not, reimport the images, you saved to your Desktop and use the Lift&Stamp tool to transfer any adjustment and captions to your reimported images.

  • Can't find the Reminders tab in Mail

    Hello All:
    I'm having trouble syncing Notes from my iPhone 3GS to my Mac Pro running 10.6.8.
    I can't find the Reminders tab in Mail. Sync Notes is checked in iTunes. Any way I can find/add the Reminders tab?
    Thanks!

    If you update to iOS 4.3.3 you should then see it in the App Store app. If you have iTunes 10.3 on your computer you can also do it there. Otherwise I think that you'll have to go through your purchase history on your account in iTunes on your computer.

  • I switched to fullscreen mode and now I can't find the app tab to put it back to normal?

    I wanted to see what fullscreen mode in the new beta looked like and now I cannot find the app tab with the print, history, bookmarks, options, etc. It used to be up in the left top corner, and said "Firefox" (it was orange). I don't like this style of screen, now that I've seen it, and would like to go back to normal, and assume I need to uncheck it in that app tab. The regular Shift+F11 (or F10, or F12, whatever it is - I just keep hitting buttons till it works) that works for most programs on PC does not work.

    '''F11''' toggles the FullScreen mode, as it always has in Firefox - nothing new there.
    New in Firefox 4.0 is that orange Firefox button, which appears when the user hides the Menu bar (which was a feature that was also available in Firefox 3.6, but without the orange button). The orange Firefox button has a small menu that appears when you click on that button, and if you need to access a menu item that doesn't appear there, you can hit the '''Alt''' key to reveal the complete Menu bar temporarily. Or you can right-click a Toolbar and click on the Menu bar to have it showing all the time.

  • Can't find the 'decoder' tabe in audio console wind

    I just bought a x-fi fatalty. All drivers was installed.
    However when I tried to set the spdif passthru to an external AV amp, I can't find the decoder tab in the audio console windows as shown in below screen capture I found on the web.
    http://soundblaster.com/images/inline/articles/audio_console.jpg

    Hi adrianmak?If you use spdif don?t need X-Fi decoder, when use spdif you send signal to a external decoder. Digital Connections, SPDIF and Dolby Digital Info[/b] ?Movies wth Dolby Digital (AC3) & DTSMovies on DVD often use encoded?audio in the form of Dolby Digital (AC3) or DTS. This means that all 6 channels are compressed into a single stream of digital data. A decoder is required to extract the channels and send the sound to the correct speakers. There are three ways to do this.
    ) Pass the AC3/DTS signal to a external decoder. This is where your optical/coax connection is used. To?go down this route, you must first have a?set of speakers or a decoder that?supports Dolby Digital.
    In your DVD software, select 'SPDIF' as the audio output method and 'SPDIF Pass-through' in?your?soundcard options. What this does is?tells both the software and soundcard to leave the audio from the DVD in compressed form and send it straight through the digital outputs. Your?digital speakers/receiver will do all the decoding to give you full surround sound.
    Please note that this?is the only way to get 6 channels through an optical/coax cable.
    2) Decode the AC3/DTS with your Sound Blaster.?You should choose this option if?you don't have an external decoder. In the DVD software, select 'SPDIF' as the audio output method and make sure that 'SPDIF Pass-through' in the souncard options is?off. The DVD software will now pass the compressed audio to your soundcard, which will then decode the data. The soundcard will output the 6 channels using the?analogue connections (or digital DIN, more on this later). If you try?to use a digital optical/coax connection to your speakers, you will only hear faint sounds from the front left/right speakers.
    3) Decode the AC3/DTS with software.?If you have a soundcard that doesn't support Dolby Digital (like the SB Li've! 24-bit) and you don't have digital speakers, the only way for you to get surround sound in movies is to use software to decode the AC3/DTS. The free versions of DVD software you get with hardware often don't support this feature,? you will most likely need a full version. First select 'Dolby Digital' or 'DTS' decoding in the DVD software audio options (you must select the right?sound format for the movie you are watching). Then make sure that 'SPDIF Pass-through' in the soundcard options is off. As with method (2) you must connect your speakers with the 3 analogue cables, not optical/coax.[url="http://forums.creative.com/creativelabs/board/message?board.id=soundblaster&message.id=270">[/url]?What version you have?Try to update drivers from creative, MS Windows Update X-fi driver version?disable decoder tab.

  • Help ! I can't find the "field" tab for an object in the library

    Just starting out with the software. I want to place a text box that spans several lines and "allow multiple lines" in a form I am building. The only problem is I can't find the field tab for the text box object. The only two tabs I have at the top of the object library is "Object Library" and "Fragment Library"
    What am I missing?

    Click on the Object Library. Below that there shoudl be three libraries (My Favorites, Standard and Custom). The Textfield is in the Standard library. If all else false you can use the Insert Menu and then choose standard from there.

  • I'm trying to reverb an audio clip in my timeline and I can't find the effect tab in the browser to drag to my audio clip to reverb. I can reverb the clip in the viewer but can't it won't drag to the timeline. I'm using FCE

    I'm trying to reverb an audio clip in my timeline and I can't find the effect tab in the browser to drag to my audio clip to reverb. I can reverb the clip in the viewer but it won't drag to the timeline. I'm using FCE

    You cannot drag the effects themselves to the timeline.  You add them to a clip in the Viewer, just as you have done. 
    If the clip was already in the timeline when you  opened it in the Viewer (by double-clicking it in the timeline to open it in the Viewer) and then added the reverb effect, there is nothing further to do, you have added the effect to the clip.  You don't drag it back to the timeline.
    You only have to drag the clip to the timeline if the clip was not already in the timeline (for example, if you opened the clip from the FCE Browser; or set different In and Out points in a master clip to use a different portion of the master clip in a different location in your timeline).
    Depending on the effect you add, you may have to render the timeline after adding the effect.  But I don't think reverb requires immediate rendering.  One other note, you said you were working with an audio clip ... audio clips need to be AIFF (not MP3 or something else) and preferably 16-bit stereo.

  • Can I find the current tab in Terminal using applescript?

    Running a script from the shell by prepending
    #! /usr/bin/osascript
    as part of my .profile, can I find the "current" tab using Applescript. Most of the time, the "current" tab will not be visible, as the shell is being initialised, or re-initialised.
    I want to set the dircolors for my shell by determining the background color of the tab in which the shell is executing.

    Under the Window menu you can activate any of the palettes that you want. In your case the Field tab is under the Object palette
