I don't have the new Firefox button

I've upgraded our XP pc to Firefox & I don't have the new Firefox button - I've still got the old File - Edit etc menu at the top. The Tabs etc have all changed - it's just the button that hasn't appeared.
My husband has a different XP user on the same pc, and he does have the new button, rather bizarrely (since, presumably, we're both running the same software!).

The Firefox button is only a default feature for Windows Vista and 7. To have the Firefox button in Windows XP, go to:
View > Toolbars and UNCHECK the Menu bar. Then the Firefox button should appear. Please read this article for more details:

  • 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.

  • I am missing the new firefox button. how can I see it?

    I have upgraded to Firefox 4, and the new Firefox button (should be on right topmost corner) is missing.
    How can I configure Firefox to show it?

    you can simply disable the display of the menu bar (right click in any toolbar and then disable it) and then the new firefox futton will appear.

  • Just downloaded Firefox 4. Running Windows XP. Some of the new features are mising such as the new "Firefox Button" and the new location for the bookmarks button. The look is almost like Firefox 3. Why is this happening?

    Hi. I just downloaded Firefox 4. Some of the new features are missing such as the new "Firefox Button" and the new location for the bookmarks button. It almost looks just like Firefox 3. I am using Windows XP on this desktop computer. On my laptop, running Windows Vista, Firefox 4 has all the updates advertised. Why is this happening? How do I fix?
    Thanks

    Thanks so much!

    I downloaded the new OSX mavericks in my macbook and why I don't have the new i-life and iWork

    Have you checked the Software update page at the App Store?
    And do you have iLife '11 and iWorks '09 installed? Only these versions are eligible to be updated to the new versions.

  • I have a m-audio producer usb microphone and since the update on Dec. 22, 2013 Logic hasn't been allowing me to record with it. Logic is reading the microphone as the input but the audio tracks don't have the record enable button. What's wrong?

    I have a m-audio producer usb microphone and since the update on Dec. 22, 2013 Logic hasn't been allowing me to record with it. Logic is reading the microphone as the input but the audio tracks don't have the record enable button and won't let me select an input for the audio track on the inspector panel. What are some possible solutions.

    Certain M-Audio USB devices (along with some other USB2 class compliant devices that don't use drivers) no longer work with Logic Pro X 10.0.5
    At this time it is unknown as to why this has happened. Nor is it known if Apple will need to fix it or if it is up to the Developers of said USB2 devices  to remedy the problem.
    In the mean time, assuming you made/could make backups prior to updating to 10.0.5.... the solution is to roll back to LPX 10.0.4...

  • I downloaded firefox 6, and restarted computer, but the message under the search window says I don't have the latest firefox. I tried twice. thank you

    I downloaded Firefox 6 and restarted computer, but the message under the search window says I don't have the latest Firefox. I tried twice. Thank you.

    I have a similar problem; but I think the cause of the "already running" message is that my computer crashed.
    I rebooted before I learned to look for the parent lock file, but even when I knew to look for it, I found my original profile folder to be empty.
    So I created another profile folder, and FF works, but I cannot access my old profile folder. When I open the location where it should be, nothing's there. But if I go to profile manager, I see my original profile is still there (and it has a location, it's where it should be - and where it's invisible, but even if I type in this location, nothing comes up).
    I tried making all folders visible (I run Windows 7), but this did not make my old profile visible.
    I want to find it because of the bookmarks I bookmarked recently.

  • I downloaded Firefox 4 and don't have the new features. This was also the case with the Beta version.

    I went through the tutorial, but I don't have the features that are shown. I had tested the BETA version and this was true with that. I use Window XP. Do I need something else to have the new features of Firefox 4?

    Follow these steps to fix it:
    Firefox Menu > Options > Toolbar Layout > Place your Reload button to the left of the Stop button and they will integrate after you close the Customize Toolbar box. Do the same, but place them to the right of the address bar and they will integrate into the address bar.
    Hope this helps!

  • Even when I download and install the new version of firefox, I get the messsage that I don't have the new version.

    how do I know if I have the new version installed?

    Hi janeginsburg,
    Looking at your system details, you are running the latest version. You may see that message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page. That page is no longer being maintained by Google.
    You should try changing your home page to:
    about:home
    If you don't know how to change the home page, you should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]].
    Hopefully this helps

  • HT5312 I cannot authorize my new Macbook Pro, I can't deauthorize my old computer; I don't have the authorize/deauthorize button on my account. I created a new Apple ID hoping this would fix the problem, but didn't realize I now do not have access to my m

    So, I bought a new Macbook Pro which i cannot authorize my itunes for. I don't even have the button indicated in the support section to authorize or deauthorize. I only have one device authorized to my account. I cant remember my security questions and cannot figure out how to change them; I think this might be the reason why i can't authorize my new device. The only way to access my itunes from my Mac is to have my iphone plugged in. Someone please help! I am a complete tard and would like to avoid a trip to the actual Apple store.

    Call Apple Care for your country and request that they assist you in resetting the security questions.
    To authorize/deauthorize a computer, go to the Store dropdown menu in the iTunes app.

  • My operating system windows xp : downloaded firefox 4 but dont have the new firefox menu button?

    Im running windows xp sp3
    just upgraded to firefox 4
    browser doesn't show new firefox menu button ?

    The new interface is only default on Windows Vista and Windows 7. To get it on Windows XP you need to hide the menu bar. To do that in the View menu select Toolbars, then click on the "Menu Bar" entry.
    If you need access to the menus you can press either Alt or F10 to temporarily display them.

  • Is there a way to have the 'new tab' icon on the toolbar AND have the "new tab" button at the right end of my tabs, as before? It seems to be either/or.

    Under the previous version of Firefox I had the "new tab" option in both locations. When I upgraded, the one at the end of the tab line had disappeared. I used the suggestion from the forum to reset to default and it did reappear, but the icon in the toolbar had disappeared. Since there is no + in the customization window I cannot place a new one, and if I drag and drop from the tab bar it moves to the toolbar, but will not duplicate itself. I use either of these interchangeably, and having only one or the other is a real annoyance, and does slow me down when doing multiple searches or otherwise utilizing multiple tabs.

    Hi, I have a similar problem with 12.0 of Firefox. The 'Add New Tab' tab has moved from the righthand end of open tabs to the left hand end.
    If I right click on an empty tab area and select customize the "Add New Tab' tab disappears and an Add New Tab icon appears at the right hand end. I can drag and drop this icon into the Customize Toolbar window.
    However if I drag it from the window back to the Tab toolbar area on the right. It initially appears on the right. Then clicking 'Done' on the Customize Toolbar window converts the icon to a tab but places it back at the left hand end of the tabs.
    I'm sure this didn't happen before - so it's a possibility I have messed something up but I can't seem to correct it?

  • I do not have the main Firefox button on top of tabs, as shown in user video

    When shown the video of the new version, there is a Firefox tab that controls many options. It is to be located in top left above the tab buttons and url bar. I do not have that button. suggestions?

    To get the new user interface you need to hide the menu bar. To do that in the View menu select Toolbars, then click on the "Menu Bar" entry.
    If you need access to the menus you can press either Alt or F10 to temporarily display them.
