I don't have a status bar!

Somehow Oryte! and Bing got to be my browser and I didn't want that, so I asked Firefox how to get rid of it. Whatever it said to do, I did -- but I lost the Firefox status bar. I just have blank tabs without any place to enter URLs or search, without using my bookmarked Google home page. And there is no "previous/next page arrows", so I can't go back a page -- I have to close the tab, go to Google and start over! I've downloaded Firefox 5.0 setup -- but I'm so not-technical that I don't know whether I must get rid of Firefox 4.0 setup first (how?) before opening or running 5.0 (which do I choose?). JUST HELP ME CLEAR THIS MESS AND INSTALL A WORKING 5.0, PLEASE!

If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
* If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
* If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

HT3737 I have a new mac with Lion but I don't have a menu bar. How do I launch the menu bar?

I just booted up a new mac-mini that came with Lion. However, I don't have a menu bar. Is there a setting I need to change?

If it's a fresh installation that is going through its initial boot sequence then you will need to run through utilities to set up your account, which may not show the menu bar. Once logged into your account the menu bar should show up. What happens when you click the little blue smily face icon in the Dock at the bottom of your screen (this is the Finder icon)?

I have my tabs, and my Yahoo toolbar. I do not anything else. I don't have my address bar, back button, home button, bookmark button, or anything. Please help. Thank you.

I can't use Firefox because all I have at the top of the screen is the orange Firefox button, tabs, and my Yahoo toolbar. I don't have my address bar. I don't have the back and foreward buttons. I don't have the Home button or the Bookmarks button. I don't have my Google search bar. I don't have any the things that I should have and that I need to make it work. How do I fix this? Thank you.

I have been using 4.0 for about 2 months, and I know all of the new features and where everything is. But as of day before yesterday, the things that I mentioned '''are not there anymore'''! How do I get these things back? Thank you.

When I browse, then select a site - as I click on a site nothing shows and 'done' is in the status bar - what do I do about this?

When browsing and selecting a site - once I click on that site instead of opening the site the page is just blank and 'done' shows in the status bar. This has only started in the last couple of months - previously it worked fine! I installed Chrome and do exactly the same without any problems at all. I prefer to use Firefox Mozilla but had encountered this problem which is most frustrating. I cannot make the selected site open. e.g. I asked "Airports in the world" and found many sites. I selected 'azworldairports.com' but clicking on this just produces a blank page. What do I do now? Please help.

I checked the status of the server and hard drive by booting off of the 10.4 installation disk, select utilities and disk utility.
I know very little about terminal, however I'm pretty good at dos so I can figure some things out if given some commands.
Anyway, I ran some commands and here are the results:
megaraid -showstatus

Um, so I think I remebered the command incorrectly and I did -showdevices instead. Sorry.

How do i view pages side by side? i do not have a status bar at bottom of screen

I want to view two or more pages along side each other in the pages format. I have looked for the answer but they all say to use the status bar, which i don't seem to have

Hi Evamc,
What version of Pages are you running?
In Pages '09 there is a zoom control bottom left of the Pages window for Two Up.
Two Up is not available in Pages 5 as far as I know.
Regards,
Ian.

HT4796 Should I have a status bar during migration of files?

I am using migration assistant to merge my files from my PC to a new MacBook pro. I've reached the section where it says "Transferring Your Information", but there is no movement in the status bar area (on either computer) so I'm wondering if it is working. It's been like this for several minutes. Do I start over?

It may take several hours (days even if you elected to do this over a wireless connection) Don't stop, you have barely started.

I don't have the url bar at the top--is there a way to get it to appear

I recently purchased a Mac desktop and when I open Safari, I don't have the bar to type in a web address. Does anyone know how to fix this?
thank you

Hi sackss --
Go up to the top Safari menu bar on your screen . . .
Select the "View" tab, and then go down to "Customize Toolbar."
Then, take anything you'd like and drag it over to your toolbar.
The URL bar is there, and lots of other useful things.
Hope this helps.

Only in firefox, it doesnt have my status bar in facebook, it has a a bar where you have to click status, post, picture. It doesnt do that in explorer

The status bar is gone in Facebook. It has a bar where you have to click status, post, picture instead of a space to type. It doesnt do it in explorer either.

I don't have an address bar

I don't have an address bar

If you right-click (or Mac equivalent) a blank area of the tab bar, do you have the option to turn on the Navigator toolbar? That's the one with the address bar and search box.

What is the address of the Firefox homepage that has a search bar? The homepage page addresses I've found don't have a search bar--one like I find on Google

Does Firefox always use Google to do searches?
I want to see my default page but "firefox.org" doesn't have a search bar.
I want to use firefox as my default browser.
Thanks,
dee

By default Firefox normally uses Google for searches, but you have many other choices.
Also note
# That the firefox searches all use the same search as that set in the search bar. That includes the searches from the address bar, and even if you right click highlighted text in a webpage.
#You can choose the search engine or install new ones [[Search bar - Easily choose your favorite search engine]] [[Search the web from the Address Bar]]

Yahoo is my home page and now that I have downloaded your latest version, as stated in a note from you the tool bar is incompatible. So....how do I print or save a web page if I don't have my tool bar!! I'm not happy with this - please help.

You've moved stuff around so the tabs are at the top instead of my tool bar. I no longer have the means then to copy and paste, print, etc. when I pull up information I might want to keep from a web page. When I downloaded Version 4 a message came across from Firefox that the newer version is not compatible with the Yahoo toolbar. How then do I operate these functions? I'm not a techie, and was happy with my old Firefox. Not a happy camper now. Can you help???

iPHP
Wow! You know, I tried a variation of that, which was a complete guess, and of course it was absolutely wrong.
I had no idea you could stack DATE_FORMAT one after the other! I researched this for a LONG time and nothing came up like what you suggested, so thank you for this! I hope that this thread helps others who are or will soon be in my shoes. This forum is the BEST!!!
And of course, it works like a charm. Thank you.
Many incredibly sincere thanks,
wordman

How can I make firefox work wisth a windows xp computer? I don't have an address bar , a backup key. I can get away from the firefox add-on screen. It is basically inoperable

After installing the new version of Firefox on an Windows xp computer I cannot use the internet. There is no address bar for entering a URL, there's not back up arrow, I can't get away from the Firefox add-on screne.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).
If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key to make the menu bar appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
*Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize"
*If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
