Firefox Buttons

I'm getting old, forgetful, and lazy. I did an update within the last week, not sure when it started, and now the back and forward buttons in firefox are not displaying the right icon. I've ran into this once before but can't for the life of me remember what I did to fix it. I'm using KDE for my desktop.

  • On Android 4.2.2 on a Nexus7 tablet - No Firefox button and most text entry fields do not work at all

    I installed Firefox 19.0.2 and appears to be ok, but I don't see a Firefox button anywhere, so I cannot access any of the functions that it controls, such as bookmarks, which is why I installed it!
    The ASUS Nexus 7 tablet shows up as a supported platform.
    I set it as the default link browser, but quickly realized that I could not enter text into any data entry fields, so I reset the default back to Chrome, which works fine for that.
    I installed Firefox because bookmarks in Chrome are very lame, but I can't use bookmarks at all in Firefox, so again Chrome wins.
    Any suggestions, before I uninstall it?

    I am now a Democrat supporter. dccc.org does accept text input from my mobile.
    The forum problem I mentioned earlier is apparently a known issue but only affecting legacy phones.

  • How do I install a foxit button on my tool bar? I recently upgraded to the latest version, but my tool bar does not contain a firefox button which is need for certain tasks, such as private browsing.

    I had an existing laters 3 point whatever version of Firefox and recently upgraded to Firefox 10. This new version still has the old toolbar across the top, but there is no "Firefox button" which one has to use to activate certain action such as "private browsing." Is there anyway I can install the button on the toolbar, or is there a way to change to the new version 10 interface which includes the Firefox Button. I would prefer the former (the old configuration with the tool bar on top, but if that cannot be done, how to I migrate to the new configuration which apparently puts the tools on the side, if I'm not mistaken.
    Thanks for any help you can provide. I have Windows XP.

    If you have the old fashioned toolbar, you can still go into Private browsing by clicking Tools, then "Start Private Browsing". All the options that are in the Firefox button are in the old style toolbar, just maybe a little more hidden.
    To enable te Firefox button, go into View, then Toolbars, then uncheck "Menu Bar". You should have the Firefox button.

  • I am unable to find the Firefox button referred to in the following: At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button and then select Options

    Every instruction Mozilla offers to find or to do something contains a term or a phrase that is indeciphrable.
    I have been trying to change "Cookie Settings" so of course Mozilla advises me to click the Mozilla button at the top of the page. And of course there is no Mozilla button at the top of the page. Then after wading through Mozilla's arcane and moronic help sections I end up at the following:
    Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar.
    Why don't I see it? (the Firefox button)
    Apparently the Firefox button is a new feature added in Firefox 4 to replace the Menu Bar. The menu bar is displayed instead of the Firefox button to make Firefox look like other Windows XP programs. Windows XP? Are you kidding me? Windows XP. Earth to Mozilla: Have you heard of Windows 8 or Windows 8.1?
    Then your instructions go on to refer to Windows Vista and Windows 7. JFC!
    Then, under "How to get it?" Mozilla offers the following gem:
    Right click on an empty section of the "Tab Strip" and uncheck "Menu Bar" om the pop-up menu.
    WHAT IS A TAB STRIP; and WHERE IS THE TAB STRIP? Again, JFC!
    Since these instructions refer to Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7, apparently these instructions haven't been upgraded for more than 2 years. No wonder Mozilla is a non-profit organization. There is no way that this organization could ever be profitable under any other structure.

  • Firefox just upgraded my computer to version 5.0. I do not have a what is referred to as a firefox button. How do I fix this?

    Is there a way to get the firefox button? When version 5.0 installed for some reason I don't have it. Is there a way to change this? I have looked everywhere and do not see a way to get the firefox button.

    Right click on a toolbar space and uncheck Menu Bar. This will display the orange Firefox button. You can toggle from one to the other with the right click.

  • When clicking a link normally - a new tab would open, but in this version a new window opens and there are 2 blue bars - the bar at the top of the browser and on the left hand side is a orange firefox button - Next time i start firefox it crashes!!!

    This window looks weird: there are 2 blue bars(the upper blue bar - normally there is 1, with the current page name and - Mozilla Firefox written in white inside of the bar) plus in the 2nd bar there is an orange firefox button, on the left hand side.
    I have already asked this question and was adviced to start in safe mode - this did not help either.
    Please help me quickliy, it is really annoying.

  • I don't see the new "firefox button" and i can't see the bookmark button (with the drop down option) unless I'm in the customize toolbar view. How can I fix these?

    I am using Firefox 4.0 on Windows XP home, Service pack 3. I am trying to use some of the new features of Firefox 4.0 that I see on the Firefox feature page (http://mzl.la/gCFDjj) and am not having much luck. First off in the Firefox Button. It is supposed to contain all your menu items but it is not appearing on my screen. Is this a feature that only works in Vista or Windows 7?
    Second, I am trying to use the Bookmarks Button (the one that has the drop down menu) but it doesn't appear in my toolbar unless I right click the tool bar and choose "customize". The button shows up in this view already in the toolbar, as if it is hidden in normal use and no matter where I move it to, once I hit the "done" button in the customize window the Bookmarks Button gets hidden/covered up again.
    Third, I see the new "App Tabs" feature but I can't seem to find an option for this in the preferences for Firefox, if it's even supported by my browser/OS at all.
    Can anyone tell me how to use/activate these features or if I am even able to using Windows XP?

    You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden (View > Toolbars > Customize or right-click a toolbar).<br />
    If you need to access the hidden Menu bar then press F10 or hold down the Alt key to make the Menu Bar appear temporarily.<br />
    You only see the Bookmarks menu button if the Menu bar is hidden.

  • How do I get the orange firefox button to show up on the top left corner of my page?

    So, I've installed, and reinstalled the new Firefox 4. It seems like only half the features have shown up. For example, I don't have the orange firefox button in the top left corner. I also don't have the button for bookmarks. On every other machine that I've installed firefox 4 on has not had issues like this. I don't know why I'm having issues on my laptop. If there's a way to fix it, I would appreciate it. I don't mind how it is right now, but I do like the cleaner look and the orange firefox button, instead of the buttons that show up now that are labeled: "File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, etc."

  • Orange Firefox Button Is No Longer Aligned With Tabs In Firefox 28

    A few days ago I was extremely happy with the browser that I was using, although after I was forced into upgrading to what was probably one of the ugliest and most unusable interfaces ever conceived (really, what is it with the internet and thinking that forcing gigantic changes on users with no option to revert is a good thing? If I had no problems using Firefox before, then I most certainly wasn't asking for a terrible change that would completely move (or in some cases even remove) all of features that I frequently used), I had no choice but to downgrade to Firefox 28 (please don't give me a lecture about the security risks, after trying to use 29 and getting extremely frustrated about how it was far LESS easy to use that 28, I really don't care at this point).
    So, since reinstalling Firefox 28, the Orange Firefox button (which most definitely didn't need to be replaced with some other terrible button, as the Firefox Button already worked perfectly fine) is no longer aligned on the same line as my tabs, and instead floats above them for some reason. If anyone can help me fix this problem I would greatly appreciate it.
    Thanks

    The problem exists whether the window is maximized or not, although I do usually like to keep all of my windows maximized.
    Thanks for the reply.

  • I really, really, really need the orange firefox button back.

    I cannot use Firefox anymore if the orange Firefox button is not brought back. The annoyance and anger caused from this is seriously at the point that it causes me physical pain. I would like to make some observations regarding this change.
    1. Only you (Firefox, employees and owners) care about the amount of work put into this update. Work means nothing if the result isn't quality.
    2. You claim to make Firefox more customizable with this update, but you don't allow users on of Firefox's most useful and classy features after this update.
    3. The new menu button does not contain the functionality of the old menu button as the old menu button gave users the functionality of the full menu bar and the new menu button doesn't. Functionality used to be more important to Firefox than design.
    4. I get it that you just want to remove the options that people don't use much, but that is what tool bars and icons are for. When someone clicks on a menu, that needs to be the "end all" when it comes to the functionality for a program. When a user has to click around multiple places for more functionality, there is a poor navigation system. Steve Krug wrote this nice book called "Don't Make Me Think" that does a good job explaining how websites should set up their navigation system so that it aids user functionality.
    4. You (the admin/tech reading answering this question) are probably starting to role your eyes and think of how I'm just another annoying user who can't handle change and needs stop complaining and just accept that Firefox is doing something good for me.
    5. There is a 99.9% chance that my complaint will get a "I'm sorry you feel this way," response and nothing will get done about it.
    6. I didn't think Mozilla was the type of company that worked that way.
    Please prove me wrong and help fix this problem. If I want a browser with rounded tabs at the top and a mobile phone styled menu button in the top right I can use Chrome. At least their right side menu button is functional. Also, I don't know where you guys get that heat map stuff, but throughout the history of computers, everyone learns from day one that the top right is where you look to close things, the top left is where you go to find your menu.
    P.S. I would hope that anyone reading this complaint would know better than to ask what I mean by less functional, but just in case, I will explain. When I click file on the old school menu system that is still permitted, I can choose New Tab, New Window, and New Private Window. In the three line mobile style menu, I cannot choose new tab. Under the File menu, I can choose Open File, Save Page, or Email Link. Under the new menu, I can only choose Save Page. This is the definition of removing the functionality of a menu button.

    ''''' "An example of a few options that I cannot add to the new menu are Page Setup, Print Preview, and Work Offline." '''''
    Are you aware that the original (pre-Firefox 4.0 version) Menu Bar still is just one click away? Simply hit the '''Alt''' key or the '''F10''' key to temporarily show the ''real old'' Menu Bar, which has '''all''' the menu items available, including many that weren't in the orange Firefox button - ''which IMO was a piece of garbage, with the limited number of menu items that it contained, and served to confuse users who were used to older versions of Firefox when they wanted a menu item that wasn't there.''
    IMO, that 3-bar menu button and panel wasn't made as direct replacement for the former orange Firefox button menu - its' value is to replace the now missing Add-on bar, otherwise ''IMO'' Mozilla wouldn't have made those buttons so large, and taking up so much space. <br />
    Then again, this new UI isn't made for desktop PC's, it was made for Mobile devices and then adapted to function in the desktop environment. Desktop users "got the short end of the stick".

  • How do i get the firefox button to appear (top left corner) ??

    i have downloaded the newest version of firefox on my work computer... the new firefox button in the top left corner does not appear... how do i get it ??? ....i have firefox on all other (home) computers & its there on all of them !!!
    firefox is awesome !!!!!

    You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden (View > Toolbars > Customize or right-click a toolbar).
    You can hide or make the Menu bar visible via View > Toolbars, also accessible via Firefox > Options.
    If you need to access the hidden Menu bar then press F10 or tap the Alt key to make the Menu Bar appear temporarily.

  • The firefox button used to be on the left, with tabs lined up beside it reaching the top of the screen. Now the firefox button is on its own, with tabs on the row below it. This wastes a lot of space at the top of my screen, can I put it back how it was?

    Previously, the firefox button was at the top left and tabs lined up beside it, so that the top of the tabs reached right to the top of the screen. Close/minimise etc. were at top right.
    Two days ago, it switched so that the firefox button is at top left, close/minimise etc. are still at top left, but now the tabs are on a row below, leaving a gap at the top where I can see through to the desktop. There is also a larger border than before round the whole firefox browser window, more wasted space.
    I have the windows 7 quick links bar at the top of my desktop, now that firefox has left a gap above the tabs it means it is easier to accidentally hover over the bar when changing tabs, this is annoying as it brings it to the front and disrupts the ability to change tabs quickly.

    -> Tap '''ALT''' key or press '''F10''' to show the Menu Bar
    -> go to View Menu -> Toolbars -> select/unselect '''Taps on Top'''
    Check and tell if its working.

  • I do not have a firefox button so I can't get the securety information I need how can I get it ?

    on your information page it shows a firefox button in the left hand upper corner I don't have that button.

    Firefox only shows the Firefox menu button if the menu bar is hidden.

  • HELP says: "How do I put tabs back on bottom like they used to be? At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button, go over to the Options... arrow and uncheck Tabs on Top. " This doesn't work in Win XP.

    On Win7 this HELP works. But on Win XP there is no Firefox button. Instead there is the menu bar. In TOOLS|OPTIONS there is no checkbox for "Tabs on top".
    Is there some way to move the tab bar back down where it belongs in Firefox on WinXP?
    Thanks,
    Ted

    On WinXP the Firefox button isn't shown by default. It appears when you hide the Menu Bar.
    Right-click the Menu Bar and click on Tabs on Top, so the check-mark is gone for that menu item.
    Or, you can open '''View''' > Toolbars and un-check Tabs on Top.

  • I went to your website to find out how to set up Firfox as my default browser but when I click on the Firefox button it doesn't say options.

    hello, go to ''view > toolbars'' & un-ckeck the menubar - then you'll get the default layout with the firefox button on the top left of the window...
