Buttons in the navigation bar are moved around.

The Home button is to the far right of the search bar (Google..Yahoo..etc) and the Refresh button and Cancel button (X) are between the search bar and the WWW (World Wide Web) browser bar.

You can move them to where you want, for details see the [[How to customize the toolbar]] article. They would have been moved when you used Firefox 4 beta, if you plan to use both Firefox 3.6.13 and the Firefox 4 beta you should create a new profile (location where user data is stored) for Firefox 4 beta. Using the same profile for different versions can cause problems.
For details on doing that see these links:

A new programme has installed a button on the navigation bar that I can't remove by the usual method

I recently installed freemake video converter. It has put a button on the navigation toolbar which I can't remove by the usual drag and drop method customising toolbars. It has taken the place of my bookmarks button at the right hand side of the navigation toolbar.

You can't remove it by drag and drop in customize toolbars because it is only for Firefox components, not 3rd party extensions.
I am sorry, either you need to un-install the extension using the Add-ons Manager or contact Freemake. You can also look out if you can disable that button by going to Add-ons manager and selecting Options button FOR Freemake extension.

Where has the recent pages button on the navigation bar gone?

On the V3 navigation bar we had a "go back one page" a "go forwards one page" and a "recent pages" button. The latter has disappeared in V4, which is inconvenient when I want to skip over several pages to get back to the one I wanted. Is there a way to retrieve this facility?

The back/forward buttons should still be there by default, to restore them see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Back+and+forward+or+other+toolbar+items+are+missing
When you have restored them, there is a small change in functionality. The small dropdown marker next to the back/forward buttons has been removed. To get the list of sites, you can either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or hold down the left button until the list appears.

Suddenly, my custom url buttons disappeared from the navigation bar and I can no longer add new ones. FF22

I am using Firefox 22 (I like its features and do not want the features added in later version.) I have added a handful of custom URL buttons to the navigation bar that allow me to go instantly to websites I visit frequently. There was/is a function in Firefox for adding such buttons. This morning, after leaving my computer on all night, I found that the custom buttons had disappeared and I could no longer find the function for adding new ones. Can you tell me what has happened and how I can add custom URL buttons? I will appreciate your help. Thank you.

I solved my own problem. This function was added by Google Shortcuts, which somehow became disabled. After fussing ariound for a few minutes. I was able to restore it.

How can I pin the ONLY link I need (Bookmooch java) to the navigation bar instead of opening up a whole new toolbar?

I sent a better written request with an incorrect email address before ...
I would like to add a single URL link as a button to the navigation bar, instead of having to open a whole new toolbar for it alone.
I have moved all my add-ons to this single visible toolbar with the help of an add-on, but there isn't one for the Bookmooch bar. The official one can only be dragged into the bookmarks bar which I never use.
If I created a whole new bar and moved all the preset tools (home, back, etc) onto it, could I combine them with that URL button?
Or is the only way to fiddle with the registry and replace bits of the Mozilla code?
The link to the only person offering custom toolbar icons (I managed to find) won't load.
Help? Thank you!

When you are in the Toolbar Customize mode, move the '''Bookmarks Toolbar Items''' to the Navigation Toolbar. Then hide the now empty Bookmarks Toolbar.

Fixing resp. pinning the navigation bar to the top of the browser

Please help... I would like to fix the navigation bar on the top of the browser, so when you scroll down the page this navigation bar is staying always on the top of the browser. In this thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/4782547#4782547 heathrowe offered this solution:
Check the code for the Stage > compositionReady, as follows, that makes an element 'move' when page scrolls
$(window).scroll(function(){
var element = sym.$("sidebar");
element
.stop()
.animate({"marginTop": ($(window).scrollTop() + 30) + "px"}, "slow" );
Download sample here
http://www.heathrowe.com/edge/scrolltop3/ScrollTop2.zip
It is nice, but the navigation bar is moving, and I would like to have it ALWAYS on the top.
Anyone knows how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance...
Stanko...

hi there,
I found the solution for scrolling behaviour, but now I have (very simple) problem that I don't know how to access the main timeline from within the symbol.
In order to connect scrolling behaviour to some spots on the one pager you have to define simple shape, name it (in this case "three") and put the click behaviour, here the code for that:
var element = sym.$("Three");
// No Animation
//$(window).scrollTop(element.offset().top);
// With Animation
$('html,body').animate({scrollTop: element.offset().top}, "slow");
Now my buttons are in the naviBar, say in a symbol, and I don't know how to access the shape on the main timeline from within the naviBar Symbol.
Please help...
here the zipped file:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/0yy9uvnixmxww43/heelbopps_2.zip
You will see, if you click the shape with scroll down on it, it works, but if you click the star in the naviBar, it doesn't.
Regards...
Stanko

The link previews in the navigation bar no longer show up in Beta 11, is there a way to re-enable them or have they been permanently removed?

After downloading Beta 11, the link previews that used to appear in the navigation bar are just gone. Has the feature been permanently removed or is there an option to re-enable it? If the feature has been removed, is there another way to display link previews?
*Edit - I accidentally typed status bar when initially posting, I meant navigation bar.

This "hover link URL display" feature location has been changing a lot recently, like with every Beta version release. As '''''TonyE''''' has said, in Beta12 ''(if there is one)'' or the RC, it looks now like it is going to be an "overlay" / "tooltip" type of display in the lower left-corner of the browser, very close to where is used to be on the old Statusbar.
As '''''cor-el'''' mentioned, the Status-4-Evar extension allows you to change the "hover link URL display" to suit your desire - a number of options are in that extension.

Why has the "Reload current page" control been moved to the navigation bar Firefox 29? I would like to be able to place it where I had it in Firefox 28.

After getting the Firefox 29 download I tried to rearrange my buttons\controls to where I was used to having them in Firefox 28 and prior. I noticed, in particular, that the "Reload current page" control is no longer available to be set in front of the navigation bar where I've had it for years now. The reason I chose Firefox in the first place was because I could customize it to my liking. I know you can simply right click and "Reload" the tab or just get used to going to the end (right side) of the navigation bar but that defeats the purpose completely for me.
Here's an analogy; Ford decides they will now replace current model cars in the US with British standard style vehicles. Every car sold by Ford will now be right-hand steer. While this may seem like a "no biggy" to some, others, especially those of us who are inclined to drive standard transmission vehicles, may be a bit resistant to that change. Not sure if I successfully made my point or not but hopefully I did.
Initially I thought I'd start by "Has someone fallen and hit their head?' or "Did Steve Ballmer suddenly take over Mozilla, in particular the build of Firefox 29, because this one smells like a Windows 8 (aka the aroma of a full sewer tank on a hot day)?" It is understood that updates are required and as an IT guy, I've been around for many a faux pas where the kinks just need to be worked out. They happen. Maybe some consideration will be made with Firefox 30 to those of us in the states that are used to left-hand steer vehicles.
I may be missing something here, and will gladly fall on my sword if that is the case, but there is no indication that I've seen from the Mozilla sight that the "Reload current page" control can be manipulated in any way as of Firefox 29. On the bright side, I now have a good reason to go back and review some of the browsers I discounted back in the day when I decided to go with Firefox.

As far as I know, [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ the Classic Theme Restorer add-on] is the only way move the Reload button outside the address bar.
# Install [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ Classic Theme Restorer] and restart Firefox when prompted.
# Open the Add-ons Manager (Ctrl+Shift+A; Mac: Command+Shift+A), then the Extensions category.
# Next to Classic Theme Restorer, click the Options button.
# On the Main tab, make sure "Movable back-forward button" and "Hide urlbars stop & reload buttons" are checked. You might also want to check "Combine stop & reload buttons". Close the options window when done.
# Right-click an empty area of the tab bar and choose Customize.
# Drag the Back/Forward, Stop and Reload buttons onto the navigation toolbar.
# Click the Exit Customize button in the lower right corner when done.
That being said, I should point out that you can reload pages in other ways.
* Right-click any tab and choose Reload.
* Right-click an empty area of the page and choose Reload.
* Press F5.
* Press Ctrl+R (Mac: Command+R).

How can I customize the navigation bar in Firefox 29? I would like to have the refresh/stop button back in front of the navigation bar!

How can I customize the navigation bar in Firefox 29? I would like to have the refresh/stop button back in front of the navigation bar!

There isn't a built in way to do that since all the navigation toolbars are on one toolbar.
You can restore this functionality by installing the Classic Theme Restorer add-on

Where did the "Stop" button go on the Navigation Bar in ff4? It isn't included in the Customize box. Is there anyway to install the "Stop" button for loading web pages or is this option compeletly gone from Firefox now?

Just installed upgrade to Firefox 4.0. Where did the "Stop" button go on the Navigation Bar. I checked the Customize dialogue box and it isn't included. Is anyone else missing it? Is there anyway to install the "Stop" button for loading web pages or is this option completely gone from Firefox now? It was a very helpful button and allowed us users to stop a web page and move on if it wasn't what we needed.

In Firefox 4 by default the Stop, Go and Reload buttons are combined and attached to the right hand edge of the location bar.
When you are typing in the location bar it will show the Go button. When a site is loading it shows the Stop button. At other times it shows the Reload button.
If you want separate buttons, right-click on a toolbar and choose Customize, you can then drag and drop the stop or reload buttons and place them elsewhere. If you place them in the order "Reload-Stop" on the right hand edge of the location bar they will be combined again. For more details on customizing the toolbar see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+customize+the+toolbar

With version 5 of Firefox, if I open more than 1 session, most of the time I cannot see anything in the navigation bar and my back and forward buttons do not work.

I open 1 session of Firefox 5.0.1 and everything seems to work fine. Then I open a second session of Firefox and most of the time the navigation bar does not show the page that I am on and the back and forward buttons do not work. When this happens, the first session always remains working. I am an internet marketer so I have at least 2 or 3 sessions going at any given time.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Bookmarks_history_and_toolbar_buttons_not_working_-_Firefox
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

My back button, print, and address bar are missing how do I get them back?

''duplicate - locking - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/865223''
tool bar went missing for unknown reason, no back button, no print button no address bar or bookmarks.

''My back button, print, and address bar are missing''
Use "Alt" to make sure the menu bar is visible, then View > Toolbars > ... -- make sure that the Navigation bar is checkmarked, if tabs on top is confusing uncheck that, if you want to see menus and title bar make sure menu bar is check-marked.
If things don't stay put on the toolbars then
see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf
You can make '''Firefox 6.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 6.0, look like 3.6)].

There is a lot more beyond those first 10 steps listed, if you want to make Firefox more functional.
