I need to see the orange Firefox tab AND the Menu Bar all the time.
I saw info on how to see Firefox orange tab OR Menu Bar. I need to see BOTH. I often do searches during which I select and copy which is a function of the Edit button. That button is 'grayed out' when I click on the orange Firefox tab. I do not want to have to do three extra steps each time I find what I need. Assistance in setting this right is greatly appreciated.
Go to View (or just right-click on any empty space of Firefox's panels - for example, near the tabs) and turn off the Main Menu Panel. You'll see what you're looking for.

I have lost the orange firefox tab (top left) and don't know how to recover it
I'm not very computer literate, and I was trying to figure out how to manually update my computer. I was reading instructions, and then clicked on a drop-down menu that said 'full screen' (I think), and then the orange "firefox' tab disappeared, and I have no idea how to recover it to my desktop. THANKS for any help.
Full Screen Mode:
*the F11 key toggles Full Screen Mode on and off
*ALT+V+F will toggle Full Screen Mode on and off
*'''''when in Full Screen Mode''''', move your cursor to the top edge of the screen, right-click in the blank area on one of the toolbars that slide down and choose "Exit Full Screen Mode"

I've lost the orange firefox tab with the arrow, that was in the top left corner: how do I get it back?
In current Firefox releases (29 and later), that have have the Australis user interface, the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three-bar Firefox Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar and this button is always visible, whether you have the menu bar visible or hidden<br>A consequence of this location is that you no longer can hide the Navigation Toolbar
*There is a star like button to the right end of the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu.<br>You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at the bottom of this drop-down list
*It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu on the toolbars to have menus like the Bookmarks menu
*<br>*If you bookmark a page then "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu changes to "Edit This Bookmark"

I can't get the Firefox tab in order to access all the choices there. Where is it?
In the Mozilla support, it keeps telling me to click on the orange Firefox tab at the top of my screen. I don't have one and can't find how to make it appear. Any advice?
For new installs, Firefox on Vista and higher will show an orange Firefox button. For users who upgraded from Firefox 3.6, I think you kept the classic menu bar.
If you want to switch: [[Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar]]
If you want to find the Options dialog on the menu bar: it's on the Tools menu -

There are more than one Applications folders. At the root level of your system is an Applications folder for all users, where most installations go. Every user, including you, also has a separat Applications folder.

I just recently purchased the iPad wireless keyboard and I've followed all the steps, but everytime I type in the code to pair it, it says it cannot be paired. I've kept in close range, pushed the connect but it won't connect. What do I do?
AS Tesserax said you must
disconnect your laptop from the existing wifi network
Connect to the default Apple Networkxxxxxxxxx - that is your AEX open network
Go to the Airport Utility and set the AEX router to extend the Existing Network >> in the AirPort Tab > Wireless Tab >> Wireless Mode - choose your Linksys network and enter credentials - your AEX should now join the Linksys network
Then switch back to your original wifi network and your AEX should show in the AirPort utility as well, extending the range of your Linksys network, green light on
PS: Win XP support for WP2 authentication downright *****. Even with SP3, get ready for some "cannot connect" warnings. My Dell laptop from work would have major issues connecting to my home's AirPort WPA2. I had to downgrade to WPA at some point. -
My very expensive 2010 MacBook Pro hard drive died over a year ago. I finally synced my iPhone to the replacement laptop pc and it wiped out all the music on the phone including most of the purchases. Can I get the music back (restore didn't help)?
Okay, I finally got the couple of songs left on the phone to play by uninstalling and reinstalling itunes on the pc and re syncing. The last version I installed (just prior to my original post) failed to start due to some unspecified error?!?. Great!. But I still couldn't sync the itunes purchases from the PC to the iPhone. Then, after about an hour of googling and reading assorted posts mostly about using google to resolve the issue, I finally figured out that I have to actually download ALL the purchased albums from iCloud back onto the iPhone! There are hundreds of them, and some are not even available anymore.
Why do I have to do that when I originally purchased and downloaded all the music to the phone? Why are they all on the PC to begin with and why won't they go to the phone via the USB cable? Why didn't all the music get wiped out on the phone when I synced with the dodgy itunes I had to uninstall. never mind.
I accept that all my original music from cds and shared collections is gone on the failed mbp hard drive, but how come this once okay experience has become a trauma? Hundreds of songs to download all over again, sheesh, this has not exactlybeen a "That Was Easy" experience guys. -
I installed Firefox 33 after Tumblr stopped working on 16.0.2, but now everything is jumbled. i tried Classic Themes installer and most things worked great, except for one thing: the orange Firefox thingamabob in the location bar. I can't change it back to the short, unintrusive globe it was in 16.0.2. Here is how it looked then and looks now, for comparison. (Also, the open tabs now have no border and the bars are a different color!)
http://i.imgur.com/aIiwfvc.png
Also, the Awesome Bar doesn't work anymore! Before I could type, say, the letter 'i' and it would show my a bunch of imgur pages. Now it doesn't do anything when I type anything, and won't work when i hit Enter to search. What is going on?Hello, I have the same... well... "opinion".
The Firefox logo in the address bar is intrusive and takes away a lot of sorely needed horizontal space in it, for no reason but to display the Firefox icon a third time (in the address bar, on the tab, and on the window in my case where it doesn't bother me).
The screenshot the starter of this topic made illustrates perfectly what I mean - it unnecessarily clutters and overcrowds the horizontal space within the address bar. This is especially a problem for people who cannot use high screen resolutions due to being damned to forever keep using old CRT displays since all flatscreens cause excruciating eye pain (a minority no one cares about, I know - still where's the harm in making it optional?).
Does anyone here know of any Add-on that can remove this said clutter in the address bar? I would really appreciate it and be grateful. Or any (other) way to remove it for that matter... make it an option, whichever...
Kind regards -
Can i have the orange firefox symbol AND the firefox menu bar showing at the same time?? and how??
hi, i just downloaded firefox 16 and would like to know, can i have the orange firefox symbol thats at the top left corner of the page, AND the firefox menu bar showing at the same time??? i'm new to this, and old, and hope i can do this..thanks for your help...joan albert
Here are two "Menu" add-ons which alter the Menu bar into one button.
With this one you can move the new "Menu" button into the Customize Palette, and then when you hit the '''Alt''' key the "Menu will open down from the Titlebar on the left. Won't affect the action of the Firefox button when you de-select the Menu Bar.<br />

This one I haven't used recently, but you can play with it to see what is possible. <br />

I have been using Google for my home page. Google has gone to Google +. I am not interested. When I open my Google Home page, blank of course, on my HP laptop, Win7, I do not see the orange tab at the left top that lets me do 'good stuff'. On my desk top, Win XP, I still see the orange tab. Why is this different? I really need that Orange tab a the top left. It is the portal to many features I use. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your suggestion. I woke up at 3:00 am and that really bugged me, so I finally found an area to click, and discovered I had accidentally hit the 'full screen' button. It is next to the +/- for text. Given how Google is messing around, I erroneously suspected them. Anyhow I will remember that. Yes, it is Firefox. Thanks again.

The orange firefox tab top left is gone. How do I get it back
Version 4.0.1 had a tab in orange Firefox at the very top left hand corner of the screen. It is now gone and I can't get it back. Please help. Thanks
In Firefox 3.6 on Windows you can hide the menu bar via "View > Toolbars" or via the right click context menu on a toolbar.
Press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the menu bar.
Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the menu bar or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide.

all the bars at the top of the page have gone missing including the back button, everything...how can I restore them?
'''Menu Bar''' (File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help)
Press ALT V T M (CTRL V T M on Macs) on your keyboard. This should restore the menu bar (Firefox 3.6) You can also restore the menu bar by pressing Alt and going to View | Toolbars | Menu bar
'''Navigation Toolbar'''
Press Alt V T N (CTRL V T N on Macs) on your keyboard.
'''Other toolbars'''
View | Toolbars | Select the desired Toolbar
'''Other steps to try'''
Try restoring the default set by going to View | Toolbars | Customize | Restore Default Set. This will put the toolbars back in the default place. This would be a good idea if you are missing specific icons on the Navigation Toolbar
'''Safe Mode'''
You May need to reset toolbars and controls via [[Safe Mode]]
Make sure you completely close Firefox first. When you get to the Safe Mode window, select Reset toolbars and controls and then Make Changes and Restart.

Problems with recordset paging and dynamic menu displaying all the options
Hi hope someone can help on this - I've posted the code on the FoEd Backend Blight - with no takers/success yet -
I've created a jobs page using DWCS3 which has a dynamic drop down menu filtering the 'countries' that jobs are located in. When I introduce a recordset page only those countries associated with the jobs on that particular page are shown in the dynamic menu above, not all of the countries listed in the database. When I get to the second page of results - again - only those jobs' countries are shown in the menu (and not the previous pages/next pages as well).
I'd clearly like a user to be able to select from the menu of countries available for all the jobs in the database, and not just those on the page. Any ideas?
On a similar strain - my country menu/filter is wrapped up in a form above the list of jobs. On loading the page, only the search and menus appear. No jobs are shown until I hit submit. Is there a way to have all the jobs display on first load, and then for the search/menu filter to work on the displayed jobs. I've tried altering the variables on the search to 1 from -1, and other options but I can't seem to get a page of content on first load.
I'd really appreciate any pointers on the above, as this would help solve the final stage of my project. The full post and code can be seen on the friendsofed website under backend blight.
Many thanks in advance.
MattI'm still stuck on getting the page to load with some actual content, however. I'm just getting the search box and country filter displaying on first load.
Pages 584-6 explain why you get nothing when a page first loads. Dreamweaver sets the default value to -1. The problem with trying to change the default value even to an empty string or % is that Dreamweaver's security function, GetSQLValueString() changes an empty string to NULL and wraps % in quotes, so neither will work.
One way to display all records when the page first loads is to create another recordset that selects all records. Wrap the code in a conditional statement that checks whether the $_GET array contains any values:
if (!$_GET) {
// recordset to retrieve all records here
This means that you need two repeat regions to display the results. Wrap both of them in conditional statements:
if (isset($fullRecordsetName)) {
// display the full recordset
} elseif (isset($searchResultsRecordsetName)) {
// display the search results
You also need to wrap the mysql_free_result() statements in conditional statements at the end of the page:
if (isset($fullRecordsetName)) mysql_free_result($fullRecordsetName);
if (isset($searchResultsRecordsetName)) mysql_free_result($searchResultsRecordsetName);
Another way to do it is to use just one recordset, but split the SQL query into two sections:
$query_RecordsetName = "SELECT * FROM myTable";
if (isset($_GET['searchTerm')) {
$query_RecordsetName .= sprintf(" WHERE searchTerm LIKE %s",
GetSQLValueString("%" . $colname_RecordsetName . "%", "text"));
This uses the combined concatenation operator to add the WHERE clause to the query only if $_GET['searchTerm'] has been set. Notice that you need a space before the "WHERE". -

When Firefox loads, both my Homepage and the 'Welcome to Firefox' pages open. How do I suppress the 'Welcome to Firefox' page/tab?
Hi Sean,
Try this:
# Type about:config in the address bar
# Click ''I'll be careful, I promise'' if prompted
# In the Filter input field type ''startup''
# Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
# Delete the text string and click ''OK''
# Close Firefox and reopen the window to verify that it has worked.
It's a bit more "technical" than most people want, but it should work.
