Firefox menu doesn't work

When I click on the word "File" on the menu bar, no drop down menu appears. In fact, nothing happens when I click on any of the menu options. I can print only by using the keyboard shortcut. I can't even tell you what version of Firefox I'm using, since I can't access the "Firefox" or "Help" menus.
Also-- where are my questions listed on my account? I just submitted this question five minutes ago, but after i activated my account, I can't find the question.

'''''"I cannot get Tabs from previous session back when I reopen Firefox"'''''
Be sure that you are not using Private Browsing or are in permanent Private Browsing mode. See: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Private%20Browsing (2nd and 3rd menu items on that page)
Be sure you are not clearing history during a session or when closing Firefox. See:
*Clear Recent History: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Clear%20Recent%20History
*Clear History when Firefox closes: un-check "Clear history when Firefox closes" on Options > Privacy panel (the first item under "History" on that panel must be set to "Firefox will: Use custom settings for history" to see that item to un-check)
'''''"there is no Firefox Tab at the top of my open Firefox window - only a menu bar"'''''
The Firefox button is supposed to be on by default only in Vista and Windows 7.
In Firefox 4, you have your choice of using the Firefox button (orange or gray) in the upper left corner or the Menu Bar (''File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools. Help'').
*The selections on the Firefox button are different from the selections on the Menu Bar.
*You can easily switch back and forth between the Firefox button and the Menu Bar or leave one or the other active.
*The one being used depends on whether Menu Bar is checked
**Menu Bar '''checked''' = Menu Bar '''on''', Firefox button '''off'''
**Menu Bar '''un-checked''' = Menu Bar '''off''', Firefox button '''on'''
When the Firefox button is displayed and '''you want to ''temporarily'' display and use the Menu Bar''', pressing the ALT or F10 key will display the Menu Bar and you can make your selections from the temporarily displayed Menu Bar.
To check (or un-check) Menu Bar, do one of the following:
*using Firefox button: click Firefox button > Options > Menu Bar
*using the Menu Bar: click View > Toolbars > Menu Bar
*HOLD down the ALT key while pressing the keyboard letters VTM

  • Safari menu doesn't work

    I have a strange Safari bug... After about a day of using Safari 2.0.4 (the latest stable version), the main Safari menu stops working. I can still pull it down, but selecting anything in it does nothing.
    For example, I can pull down the Safari menu and select Quit, but the app doesn't quit. I can pull it down and select Preferences, but no preferences appear.
    On the other hand, I can type Cmd-Q and Safari will quit. I can type Cmd-K to toggle pop-up blocking. But selecting any item in the menu doesn't work.
    All the other menus work fine. Safari itself also works fine. The application menu in other apps work perfectly.
    The problem crops up after about a day or so. If I quit Safari and re-launch, the menu will behave correctly for a while. Then, sometime later, it will stop working. Safari has been doing this for at least a year -- perhaps two.
    I have tried trashing Safari's preferences. A Mac Genius suggested installing Safari 3 Beta, then un-installing to restore Safari 2, but that didn't help.
    Any ideas?
    PowerMac G5 Dual   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

    This might be worth a try:
    Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
    Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
    form values
    download.plist
    Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
    com.apple.Safari.plist
    Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
    Safari has been doing this for at least a year -- perhaps two.
    And you never to question it? I have never seen that behaviour.

  • DVD menu doesn't work right in DVD players

    I've created a DVD in Encore for Mac.  It plays fine on my Mac and on Windows.  However, once it is inserted into a stand alone DVD player, the menu doesn't work right.  I have four text menus.  In the DVD player, none of those are navigable.  Arrowing up or down doesn't work.  You have to click a number on the remote keypad and then play. This also causes "Channel 1" or "Channel 2" and so on to display.  Any ideas how I can get the arrow keys to work?  I don't have a stand alone dvd player to test against.
    Also, in Windows, I have someone that wants to duplicate the dvd.  They're using Movie Maker.  It gives an error that the codec is not installed but doesn't say which codec.  Any ideas on that?

    The only time I recall similar problems was the issue Jeff was asking about above (Mac, Encore CS3, certain OS).  If you don't solve this otherwise, I'd experiment with that.
    You appear to have confirmed that there is button navigation.  (In button routing, each button points to another.)  Where does it break down?
    On the Mac/PC, are you using the mouse?  In the computer DVD software player, there should be a "remote" that you can use to see if the button navigation is working.  Does the computer "remote" option work?  If so, it makes it not working in a standalone player even odder.
    If not, then look at whether the project works before you burn to disk.  Does the "remote" work in the Encore preview?  Or build to a folder, then play the DVD from the folder.  (I don't know how on Mac; on PC, I find the first .ifo in the VIDEO_TS folder, and play that.)

  • Since updating Firefox, Dashlane doesn't work, but I am told you are working on it? When can I expect it to work again?

    I updated Firefox and started to use it again, after having problems with it freezing and crashing. I had used it for years, but suddenly it was not working well and I went to Safari. When they indicated an update to Firefox, I updated it and started to again use it, as I always liked the way it worked and most of my Bookmarks were still good. I found that Dashlane did not work with it and I have been told you are aware of this and working on the problem. Please notify me when it is solved, as I want to continue to use Firefox but have to switch back to another browser to get to my bank or stock brokers site. For the record, I use a MacBook with OS 10.6.8.

    Could you check to make sure Dashlane is up-to-date? Two other Mac users this week reported success:
    * [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1030201 Updated to Firefox 33.1 on my MAC 10.10. My dashlane icon was grayed out (was a green dot) next to menu icon. How can I reactivate Dashlane?] - reinstalled from Dashlane site (4 days ago)

  • My Spry Horizontal Menu doesn't work

    I created my Spry horizontal menu and tried it in preview browser and it doesn't work.  I published the site to see if it check didn't work in preview mode and it REALLY doesn't work.
    I'm sure it's something simple that I am just missing, but what I don't know.  I have attached the css style sheet as I did change the spacing and colors.
    Is it something I could be missing on the individual pages and linking there?
    I apologize for being dumb, but I am a newbie to this and the tutorials I took don't go into detail about linking other than to explain the linking from your index page.  Is there more linking that I need to do?
    Here is the menu and I did place it in it's own div tag.
    <ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarHorizontal">
        <li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li>
        <li><a href="#" class="MenuBarItemSubmenu">Bar Code Products</a>

    I thought that was all there was to it.
    What am I missing.  I can link to one page, but have to click on the back button to view any other page and keep repeating that process to view all the pages.
    Boy do I feel stupid.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Needless to say I republished my friends old site because of functionality.  But I'd really like to get this one working for him.
    Thanks in advance.
    Oops

    NEVER MIND.  What an idiot.  I never copied the linked menu bar into the other pages.  My stupid.
    Thanks and sorry to waste your time.

  • Firefox 4 doesn't work on my iBookG4, how can I revert to Firefox 3 with my bookmarks

    I was encouraged to download Firefox 4. There was no warning it only works with Intel processors and so doesn't work on my iBook G4 (Power PC). I need to revert to Firefox 3, with all the saved bookmarks. How do I do it? Is there an "un-install/reinstate previous version option somewhere?

    i sympathize. there is absolutely no warning that firefox 4 will not work with my g5, and there is no way to get back to firefox 3.6. hello mozilla!!! what were you thinking?!?!??

  • The 'Sync Now' option on my desktop Firefox menu won't work, nothing happens!

    Please, will someone go to the firefox menu and see if this happens. Click the menu and then click 'Sync Now'. This is a gliche! I hope firefox fixes it!

    FYI, My Sync hasn't been working for almost two days now. It'll not sync in my Laptop, and it will not sync in my HTC EVO 4G either. I think there's something wrong with the Sync server. I have searched everywhere and couldn't find out where to get help about this issue. Though I did post my problem in the Sync Add-on Review page, I doubt anything could be done there. So I just have to wait and see. The reason I think the server is down because it used to display an error message "cannot sync due to unknown error" and now it won't even do that. And when I move my mouse cursor on the Sync icon, it did not show the last time it was synced.
    Personally, Firefox Sync hasn't been working flawlessly since it was incorporated into FF4. Many times it couldn't sync successfully, but it usually lasted for a few hours only. This time it has lasted two days so far.
    Besides Sync, I am also using Xmarks as well as LastPass as a backup.

  • Flash menu doesn't work after opening an external link.

    Hi,
    I have this problem - I made a simple website with a flash menu, that opens internal links in an iframe. However, I have a few other (not included in the menu) external links, which open in the same iframe. And after I click on one of them and it loads in the iframe, the buttons on the menu stop working. I'm beginning to think it has something to do with the internet explorer, since it works on some computers. But I'm not sure... not very good at this.
    I've been searching for an answer here and there, but still haven't found anything. Please, help.
    Thank you!

    Here it is: http://kiss4eto.is.com/. Click on the Me button, for example. It should work. Then click on the "Addicted to Facebook" link on the right and after that try the Me button again. It doesn't work any more. At least on my computer.
    Thanks, again.

  • Smartshape menu doesn't work in html5

    Hi,
    I have made a kind of menu with smartshapes that are set "rest of project" and " placed on top". There are an advanced action on each that show/hide captions, also set for the rest of project, on top.
    I have put a flash version of the tutorial. You can see at the slide #12 (until the end) what should happen: click to show caption/ click to hide:

    But when I publish it in html5, it doesn't work anymore:

    Is there an option that can cause that problem?
    thanks!

  • DVD menu doesn't work on the finished DVD

    Please, I need some help.
    I am having problems with a DVD menu.
    Several days ago I burned a DVD from the same project that I tried to export to DVD today, and I did not have any problems with DVD menu, but today, when I start to burn DVD it shows me a warning sign that tells a few DVD markers are closer than they are required, and after burning DVD the DVD menu doesn't show or work on the finished DVD. What am I doing wrong?

  • Burned DVD - menu doesn't work

    I'm fairly new to all this and have created a slideshow in iMovie and then created a DVD in iDVD. In iDVD it all works (there is just one menu item). But when I burn to disc image (or even burn a dvd) the menu link doesn't work - it just starts over the main screen. However, with the mac dvd player if I go to the menu, I can access it through "title".
    HELP!
    Many thanks!
    bchina

    Try closing iDVD and trashing the file called com.Apple.iDVD.plist located in User/Library/Preferences. iDVD will create a new file upon relaunch. Then repair permissions using the Utilities/Disk Utility app on your Mac. After deleting coded assets, try burning again.
    When you burn again, I would burn from a disk image rather then directly from your iDVD project. Open your iDVD project, Delete Coded Assets from the Advanced menu, and save your project as a Disk Image on your hard drive. The assets will re-encode, taking a little time. Play the disk image with your computer's DVD Player application and see if the menu button works on the disk image. If it does, your initial problem might be caused by bad media. Burn a new DVD disk from the disk image at 4x speed, using Verbatim or Maxell DVD-R disks. See if that works.
    Hope this helps.
