I lost the menu/toolbar at top of Firefox window. No 'File', 'Bookmarks' etc. How do I restore it?

I was trying to find the Edit Options button referred to in the ADOBE READER INSTALLATIONS INSTRUCTIONS FOR MOZILLA FIREFOX, and clicked on the first toolbar listed under the Tools button I think, because I did not see what the instructions were saying to look for. The menu/toolbar is gone, so I cannot access my Bookmarks etc.
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== About ten minutes ago.

The instructions on the Adobe site are outdated and do no longer apply to current Firefox versions and you can ignore those instructions and save the Adobe installer to your desktop and start the installation with a double-click on that file.

I deleted the tabs across the top of my screen that contain Bookmarks. How do I restore it?

See above.

View > Toolbars - Bookmarks Toolbar = is it check-marked?
If you can't see the View menu item, Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.
Hit the '''Alt''' key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark. <br />
The F10 can also be used on most PC's to temporarily reveal the Menu bar.

I have yahoo toolbar installed. I tried to clean out some cookies and then my icons (shortcuts) disappeared on the yahoo toolbar. It will not let me open them. How do I restore them?

There is a "wheel" next to the search bar on yahoo toolbar. Clicking on it usually opens up the icons (such as Facebook, yahoo mail, YouTube, etc). But it no longer opens up any of them.

thankyou. THANK you.

How do I lock the bookmark tool bar AND the menu toolbar

Why don't you allow one to LOCK the Bookmarks Toolbar? Why don't you allow one to LOCK the menu toolbar?
This is insane. Sometimes my bookmarks toolbar is here, sometimes it disappears. There is no way to lock it so it stays in sight. Don't blame my anti-virus program, the tool bar stayed locked in place until you "Updated" firefox, and now you can't find a darned thing. It's so frustrating I may go back to IE...at least there, I knew I"d always be able to find AND lock a tool bar.
Your support doesn't.
I'm not the only one having problems with this.
FIX THIS BUG.

I was using open office spreadsheet today and inadvertantly clicked on a menu item that caused the Apple toolbar to disappear when I am in open office. How do I get it back at the top of my screen? I am currently using OS 10 Lion.

Click on the Menu bar and go to View . Or, hover over where the Menu bar shiuld be and click on it when it appears. Try quitting and relaunching Finder.

Firefox screen totally blackout, menu &toolbars on top displayed in gray color

After open the firefox browser in my notebook(running MS Window 7)
1. menu & toolbars on top of the screen displayed in gray color, cannot view the menu & toolbars.
2. content of the firefox browser (previously can displayed the Ask search bar) now totally in black color, cannot view the Ask search bar.
3. only the restore, minimize & close buttons displayed clearly on top right corner of the browser screen.
4. Pause my mouse pointer on top right corner of the screen(area below close button) , Open menu displayed, click Open menu button & its content displayed, then click Help button & Help window pops up, but the help screen has the same problem as described in Point 1&2 above.
4. other browsers such as IE & Google Chrome operated as normal in my notebook computer, no screen display problem.

hello GYW_Chan, other users with this problem all had an embedded intel hd3000 graphics card with an old driver present. in case this also applies to you, here would be a link to update the driver, which in turn should also address the black firefox problem: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23764 (for win7 64 bit)
in case this doesn't solve the issue or does not apply to your system, start firefox into safemode '''by pressing the shift key while the application is launching''' & disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).
[[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]

Now that I'm a paid up supporter Maybe you will fix Firefox and return "Close File" to File on the menu toolbar.

I just degraded from Firefox 3.6 to 9.0.1 and found that one of the most useful tools is missing. On the Menu toolbar under File, "Close File" has been eliminated. Why? Why do I have to close the site I was looking at and go back to my Firefox home page and start all over? Why was "Close File" eliminated? It was one of the most useful tools in Firefox. I'm hoping I haven't gotten rid of the CD that has 3.6 install on it so I can upgrade to a great version of Firefox.

Some menu entries in the main menu bar are hidden if you use the mouse and only appear if you use the keyboard to open the menu (Bug 626825).
You can see the difference if you use Alt+F to open the File menu or other menus like the Edit menu (Alt+E) and Bookmarks menu (Alt+B) and compare that to what you see if you use the mouse to open the menu after you have made the menu bar visible by tapping Alt or by pressing F10.

You are using Firefox 29. The changes used the code name ''Australis''. The Firefox button is now replaced with a new button on the right

You could revert to the Release channel and still have the Firefox button for a few more weeks or just try the new button as a lot of effort went in to the new design. You may grow to like it. If not then addons usually are able to remove some feature regressions have a look at this one

HT3180 hi guys, have lost the menu on my apple tv, only gives me computer and settings, its onlu 5 months old, can anyone help me please

hi guys, have lost the menu on my apple tv, only gives me computer and settings, its onlu 5 months old, can anyone help me please??

I called Apple support, no support. Called my Internet support, no support. If your Apple TV is connected up to your Internet via wireless...... hard wire to your Internet turn it on and poof it connects. Disconnect the hard wire from your Internet and it still will work. For what ever reason my wireless was not cutting it for updating the time and date which seems to be really important to Apple TV.
Good luck

Menu/Toolbar Display Corruption Upon Resizing Window

We're experiencing an issue with one of our workstations where when the Adobe Reader X (10.1.3) window is resized, the Menu/Toolbar displays become corrupt and garbled on the screen (see the attached picture). The Toolbar appears on the top, the frame around the application disappears, and the menubar has to be hovered across for items to appear.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader, updated the video card drivers, and ensured all Adobe/Microsoft updates have been applied to this workstation.

Was curious to how you were able to change the display resolution - I am unable to even see anything on my desktop... I have connected my power book to another monitor but have the same result.

Somehow your bookmarks that normally appear on the separate Bookmarks Toolbar (the part on the left) got onto your main Navigation Toolbar. To move them back, return to Customize mode and drag "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" to the Bookmarks Toolbar. Then click Done and hopefully that will stick.

You changed the order of the menu for "Open in a new window" or "Open in new Tab", How can I change it back? Or how can I omit any reference to tabs? I do not use them at all.

IPad running iOS 5 has on the menu bar only have 4 icons, being: back, forward, bookmarks, and the "add to bookmarks", but is missing an icon after the "add to bookmarks" arrow, that is a "show all open browser windows" icon. How do I get it in my safari?

What you are seeing is how Safari works now in iOS 5. There is no way to get that icon in Safari now. There other much better browsers available in the App Store. Look at iCab Mobile, Mercury, Atomic, ....
I have been running iOS 5x for so long now, that I don't even remember if that icon did appear in earlier iOS versions
