I have no awesome bar with firefox5

Since installing both Firefox 4 & 5 the url or awesome bar does not appear . If I want to enter anything or confirm from an e-mail link I must go into I.E. , not very convenient .

have you tried moving your mouse to the top of the screen to see if anything happened? Also try pressing F11 and looking at the question of another user that I think would really help - [https://support.mozilla.com/questions/769761#answer-122810 how to turn off fullscreen mode]

  • How to get Awesome bar with Mac

    I have a new Mac Mini. No awesome/location bar is displayed. How can I get this?

    H nancybishea2030,
    You should try going to ''View > Toolbars'' and enable the ''Location bar'' and the ''Bookmarks toolbar''.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • I've downloaded mozilla3.6, why don't i have the 'Awesome Bar' still?

    i do not know how it all changed. usually when i log into Mozilla, my search engine would be Google with its signature 'Google' word image there. now it's just 2 'arrows' which i suppose links to 'dvdvideosoft.com'. I've never even heard of this site or search engine before! my Mozilla web-page isn't user friendly at all!

    The information provided by the browser that you used to post here indicates you still have that old 3.0.11 version installed. Did you actually install 3.6.x, or just download it?
    If you are sure that you installed 3.6.x, see this: <br />

  • I have a tool bar with "file, edit, view, history, bookmarks, yahoo, tools, & help" at the topp of may FIREFOX, How do it get these moved to a different line?how do I move

    The listed features "file...help" were in different places on a prior version of Firefox. About three weeks ago, I tried to get some updates to Firefox. A few days later I noticed the changes were made. How and why that happened, I don't know.

    Can you attach a screenshot?

    You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden.<br />
    You can hide the Menu bar via View > Toolbars, also accessible via Firefox > Options.<br />

  • I not longer have a back button. How do I get the Awesome Bar back?

    For some reason I do not have the Awesome Bar on my computer? No back button. I have to get off the internet in order to go back. I see all the features, but no way to obtain it.

    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"
    *Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them 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

  • I do not have Windows Tool bar featured and need to add a new printer to Firefox. How do I do it?

    When I access another web server, there is a tool bar on top "File, and with other functions. I do not have this tool bar with Firefox. I bought a new printer, I need to conect to Firefox in order to print.
    How do I have the bar and conect the printer

    Hi pastore27-
    You should be able to print documents from webpages using Firefox. The print button should display by default. However, it is possible it was removed during an upgrade or due to custom preferences. The way to fix it:
    # Firefox > View > toolbars > customize
    # Select the printer icon and drag it to your browser window
    I also found a Support article on restoring toolbars, as you said the toolbar was missing:
    [[Back and forward or other toolbar items are missing]]
    I hope that helps!

    Thanks.

    you can't have 3 shortcuts as they wouldn't fit properly, but you could try Favourite app from the Ovi store ?

  • One Page Scrolling Site with anchors and a navigation bar with submenus

    Hi,
    I create a one page scrolling site with some anchors.
    Now I want to have a navigation bar with submenus, i.g. one navigation leads to "projects", but within projects I need 6 submenus for every project.
    How can I realize this in muse?
    Thanks,
    Michael

    Create a Manual menu and link to the anchors.
    Widgets Library/Menus/Horizontal
    In the Options pull out screen: Menu Type: Manual
    Mark each menu box you create and link to the specific anchor.
    Refer to this section of a site I created that mimics what you want done:

  • I am having a strange problem with the awesome bar

    The awesome bar/location bar is no longer as awesome as it used to be. When I start typing in an address it seems like it no longer checks through my history and gives a list of possible matches but just gives the stem of an address. For example, if I type in 'goo' it will complete this to 'google.com' if I then append this with an '/a' it will complete this to 'google.com/analytics' but that's as good as it gets, as I say, no list from the history or bookmarks.
    I've checked the options and also about:config and all the settings are as they should be, as far as I can tell (and I certainly hadn't changed any of them when it started misbehaving). I've also disabled all extensions and plug-ins.
    It's driving my slightly bonkers because I quite often use sites with long addresses and can't remember each of the components of each address. I'd switch to using Chrome but I also use Firebug a fair bit so don't really want to do this.

    Hi cowtan, <br/>Sorry you are having problems with the awesome bar.
    I imagine the new behaviour may be reversed by changing some pref but I have not looked that up.
    Regardless of the new behaviour you seem to have some fault as my awesomebar still gives bookmarked items.
    As a troubleshooting step try adding an asterisk in the awesomebar (as first character or anywhere) that should then filter the results in the dropdown list to bookmarked only items, does that work ?
    * see [[Search your bookmarks, history and tabs with the Awesome Bar#w_changing-results-on-the-fly]]_changing-results-on-the-fly
    You possibly have some extension interfering with the awesome bar, try Firefox in safe mode (but do NOT* at this stage try the Reset Firefox option)
    <nowiki>*</nowiki>'''edit''' - personal opinion, if a user; such as you; is knowledgeable enough to use ''about.config'' the easy solution of ''FirefoxReset ''is probably not the best route, as it can have unwanted side effects that are avoidable.
    * [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
    Do your bookmarked items appear in safe mode ?
    <u>Try a new Profile.</u><br/>The best method for troubleshooting this will be to set up a new Firefox profile, you can then: experiment, troubleshoot, alter settings or extensions installed in that profile without changing and potentially damaging your current profile.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Creating_a_new_profile
    I suggest to prevent unexpected problems you
    * use a sensible name such as test 2012 for the profile name
    * ensure an empty folder is used & do not then rename or delete the new profile (instead add or delete shortcuts to it)

  • I recently downloaded a program and have now lost Firefox's "awesome bar" which has been replaced by the program's own search bar. How can I restore the "awesome bar" and get rid of the other search bar?

    I recently downloaded Bearshare.com which then overrode my Firefox "awesome bar". Now when I enter a search item in the search box at the upper right of my screen, I'm automatically shunted to this new search bar where I have to re-enter my search item and click return before it will begin a search. Previously, the Firefox "awesome bar" opened automatically together with my home page and I had the choice of searching using it or the default search box at the upper right of my screen. I 'uninstalled' Bearshare but it now continues to come up when I search using the right hand top search box , forcing me to use it instead of the search box at the upper right of my screen. How do I get rid of it completely so that only the "awesome bar" appears as an extra tab when I open Firefox browser?

    First, some clarification:
    * The location bar (often called the "awesome bar") is the larger bar on the left that shows you the address of the page you are currently viewing. As you type in the location bar it searches your history and bookmarks for matches.
    * The search bar is the smaller one on the right. It typically displays an icon of whichever search engine is currently selected and may display search suggestions as you type in it.
    It sounds like you are referring to the search bar rather than the location bar. You can change search engines for the search bar by clicking on the icon on the left edge of the search bar and choosing a different one. You can also choose "Manage Search Engines" to remove ones you aren't interested in using.
    It also sounds like Bearshare might have changed your homepage in Firefox. To restore that you will need to open the preferences menu (click Tools > Preferences), go to the General tab (first on the top left), and click "Restore to Default".

  • How can I get the awesome bar back. In v. 31 I have lost it and my search box has no search engines. I did use the classic restorer back a few versions, but I d

    This might be a duplicate-I neglected to click submit-so am trying again.
    Since I upgraded to v. 31, my location bar makes me type the address in exactly, or else it says not a valid address. I guess somewhere the awesome bar got lost. Also, my search box does not have any search engines listed at all. Back around v. 29 I added the classic theme restorer addon, but did not think that would have affected the location and search bars as it upgraded. Any help you can give me will really be appreciated. I have worked on this for days. At one, time the location bar was gone completely.
    Thanks in advance!

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    *Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

    A 6 year user of Firefox, and all of a sudden you are complaining about the lack of a toll-free telephone support number?
    Mozilla has '''''never''''' provided telephone support, and probably never will due to the cost involved.
    How would they amortize the cost of that type of operation, while providing a free browser to everyone around the globe who uses it?
    If you can figure out a way to do that, I'm sure they would listen to your proposal.

  • I am experiencing some major problems with my MacBook Pro. I have had some issues with it turning on/off at random times, but today, when starting, I get the grey start-up screen and a recovery bar. After filling in approx 1/4 of the way, the machine dies

    I am experiencing some major problems with my MacBook Pro. I have had some issues with it turning on/off at random times, but today, when starting, I get the grey start-up screen and a recovery bar. After filling in approx 1/4 of the way, the machine dies. After starting it in recovery mode, it will not allow me to download OS X Mavericks- it says the disk is locked. Any ideas? I do not have a back-up and do not want to erase everything before I have explored my options. Help?

    try forcing internet recover, hold 3 keys - command, option, r - you should see a spinning globe
    most people will tell you to do both pram and smc resets (google) and if you still have issues, either clean install (easy) or troubleshoot (hard)
