I lose the minimize, restore and close down buttons in the top right corner when removing the Menu Bar.

I am using Firefox 28.0 on my Windows 7 64-bit PC. I would like to remove ONLY the menu bar and keep the orange Firefox tab. But when I uncheck the Menu Bar box, I not only lose the menu bar, I lose the three buttons on the very right of the screen as well - the minimize button, the maximize/restore down button, and the red 'X' close button. The space where these buttons ought to be is black. When I recheck the Menu Bar box, those three buttons on the right of the screen reappear!
I would like to know how I am to remove the Menu Bar but keep the minimize button, the maximize/restore down button and the red 'X' close button.
Eagerly waiting for your reply! Thanks much! ♥

Hello again, cor-el,
Thank you again for keeping up with me on this! I really appreciate your time!
I tried your suggestions of using Safe Mode and a different Windows theme (2 different ones to be exact), but neither solved the problem. Each time I tried disabling the Menu Bar, the same 3 buttons disappeared and I got nothing but black space. It doesn't even fill the space with any background I may have. It's just black.
Additionally, disabling all my personas did not help, either. :(
I've been using Firefox for years now and I've never had this issue. It's always worked flawlessly for me.

  • Even in Safe Mode, minimize, restore, and close buttons are missing, though the functions remain, and a dialog box now comes up when opening FF.

    Ever since I installed the latest Firefox update, the minimize, restore, and close buttons are visually missing, though their functions are still present.
    I have also started to have one of those dialog boxes asking whether or not I would like to allow a program to make changes to my PC come up when I open Firefox.

    Check that Firefox isn't set to run as Administrator.
    Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".
    Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.
    * Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
    * "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" should not be selected
    Also check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
    If you can't make the changes then you need to start Windows Explorer as Administrator.

  • Anyone have the problem of iPhone6 momentarily flashing brilliant white in top right corner when turn on?

    Anyone have the problem of iPhone6 momentarily flashing brilliant white in top right corner when turned on?

    Here's an example of what I'm talking about:
    https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2Sq_qEpEM6jMVQ4S2diVnFtNHM/edit?usp=sharing
    Again, this only happens for certain video content available in the iTunes store. This was taken from Star Wars: The Clone Wars episode season 5, episode 16 "The Lawless". More recently I've noticed this happening to iTunes store videos in iTunes for Windows (v11.1, Windows 7 SP 1), my iPad mini (iOS 7.0.3), and my iPod Touch 4th gen (iOS 6.1.3), in addition to my Apple TV (v6.0 software). Sometimes it occurs during the whole episode, sometimes just for a few seconds. It's also not consistent across devices; some will the play the same video with the green dot and some without. I'm at a loss to explain it given this lack of consistency, so any help would be appreciated.

  • Upon opening firefox the page scrolls up and I lose the menu bar

    when I open firefox the page scrolls upward and I can no longer see the menu bar. Somehow I think I clicked on 'blank page' and now I can't view the full page.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 to toggle).

  • My photo and video cant rotate something show top right corner lock simple

    please advise me how unlock

    Ensure the portrait orientation lock is off, if you still can't rotate photos & video try resetting the iPhone by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button and the home button for 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears, ignore the red slider.  Then turn back on. You won't lose any data doing the reset.

  • Why did the browser window's title bar, menu, minimize, maximize, and close buttons all disappear, and how do I get them back?

    I am literally stuck in Firefox. Suddenly the window changed to full screen mode, and the title bar and Firefox menu disappeared, along with the close, minimize, and maximize buttons. All I can access are the menu bar and open browser tabs.
    I can't even access my dock (on Mac), which usually pops up when I mouse over the bottom of the screen.
    So, the only way it seems I can get out of Firefox is to shut down my computer by pressing the power button. Unless there is some keyboard shortcut. I tried command-11 but that just switched between open my browser tabs.
    FYI i have no idea what Ubuntu is and don't think I'm using it (that name seems to pop up when I google this problem)
    Oh yeah, also I'm using Firefox 3.6.2 because my elderly Mac is running on OSX 10.4.11. Have never had any problems with it before.

    IN your iTunes library, does the movie appear with a cloud on it for downloading?
    is the movie still in the iTunes Store?
    iTunes purchases the rights to sell a movie, but those are for a time limit.  If the right expires and apple doesn't renew, the movie is no longer available for download and must be saved in your library.   I suggest backing up your movies ASAP.  Check the store for this movie, perhaps it is still available. 

  • My ITunes won't sync my ipad and closes down in the middle. I have Windows 7 Ultimate. How do I fix this problem?

    My itunes won't sync my ipad and closes down in the middle of the attempted syn. I have windows 7 ultimate. Any ideas about what to do?

    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, attempt to sync with iTunes while logged in as a new admin user. Follow these steps to create a new administrator user within Windows:
    From the Start menu, choose Control Panel.
    Open User Accounts.
    Select Create a new account and follow the instructions to complete the account setup process.
    Once the new account is created, choose Log Off from the Start menu.
    Log in to the newly created user account.
    If the error does occur in the new user account, the issue may be caused by content downloaded or created on the device, such as podcasts and voice memos. Removing content from the device may address the issue.
    If the error does occur in the new user account, the issue may be caused by content downloaded or created on the device, such as podcasts and voice memos. Removing content from the device may address the issue.
    If these steps do not work at all, I would suggest calling AppleCare at 1-800-275-2273 (assuming your iPad is stilll within support or has an AppleCare Protection Plan) and let them know you have already tried all troubleshooting steps per TS2830.

  • Every once in a while, a black box will cover the windows minimize, maximize, and close buttons, and then I can't minimize firefox quickly or easily.

    After a bunch of browsing, a black window takes over the windows caption bar and covers the minimize, maximize, and close buttons. When this happens, I can't close firefox except by accessing the firefox menu. And there is no way to minimize or maximize the window.

    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • Change the Colors of Expand, Minimize and Close Window Buttons

    How do I change the colors of the Expand, Minimize and Close window buttons?
    Red, green, and yellow are not conducive to red-green colorblind individuals, and the gray scheme in the Graphite appearance is too dull.

    If the change in theme can do it, there must be an alternative.

    Every time i try to start itunes it trys to backup my ipad and says an error stopped the program working and closes down??

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.

  • How to relocate the Minimize, Maximize and Close buttons on the window

    I am a right-hand user, and would prefer if all my Minimize, Maximize and Close buttons on the window are relocated to the right hand side of the window. Anyone got any suggestion to do it ?

    This is just something you end up getting used to, at least it was the case for me.
    It is not possible to move this, without the help of third-party software.
    ShapeShifter is offers customisation of the look of the Windows, but I don't know if it can move the buttons.

    But I don't know if it is compatible with Leopard yet.

  • Is it possible to disable the minimize, maximize and close on a Frame?

    Is it possible to disable the minimize, maximize and close buttons on a Frame?
    Is it possible to make invisible, minimize, maximize and close buttons of the frame?
    What methods would I use to do so?
    Thank You

    The minimize, maximize and close buttons are defined as the windows decoration. To disable the windows decoration,frame.setUndecorated(true);The setUndecorated() method can only be called while the frame is not displayable.
    Then you can redesign the look and feel of the rootpane and call
    frame.getRootPane().setWindowDecorationStyle(JRootPane.FRAME);

    I'm also running Ubuntu. Not sure how you got there, but you can try a Control-Q to quit. Then restart it and hope in comes back normal.

  • Minimize, Maximize, and close buttons are missing and nothing fixes the problem. What can I do next to fix this problem?

    I use windows 7. These buttons work but invisible. I saw someone on this forum that had the same problem but he uses xp so I think his solution will not work for me. Please, someone help me.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command+Shift+F).

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
