Menu button on v29 keep clashing the Firefox

Installed v29 and notice couple of issues.
First, whenever I press the new menu button on the top right corner, it clashes/closes the Firefox (as if it's a close (X) button).
2nd thing I've notice is that with multiple tabs open on the last/bottom row, only half of the tabs are visible when the window is not on maximized screen.
I've upgraded from v28 and no other settings were touched except from the previous version.
I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate on my laptop.

Unfortunately, I revert back to v28. The drop down menu has 3 horizontal lines. I don't recall seeing minimized, maximized, and close button anywhere on the v29.
On and I should mention that the tabs are set to show on the bottom of the window/screen.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • I keep running the firefox update but the next time I click on my firefox icon it opens an older version and asks me to update. What is going on?

    I downloaded and ran the update to Firefox. It said it was successful and then the welcome page etc. came up. However, after I had closed down and started up again the "old" version came up when I clicked on the Firefox icon with the usual comment that I have an old version and should update. I have tried this three times with the same result. I have a Compaq Presario 2200 laptop.
    What am I doing wrong?

    If you use the www.google.com/firefox site as home page that previous Firefox 3 versions use as the home page then you can ignore the message about not using the latest Firefox version on that page.<br />
    Google no longer seems to maintain that page.<br />
    The text about not running the latest Firefox version is in the code of the www.google.com/firefox site that previous Firefox 3 versions use as the home page and it looks that Google no longer maintains that page.<br />
    Current Firefox 4+ versions no longer use that Google website as the home page, but use the build-in about:home page as the home page.<br />
    Google assumes that you use an older Firefox version if you still visit that site and warns you that you use an older Firefox version and suggests to update.<br />
    You can use another page as the home page like about:home or www.google.com or www.google.com/ig (iGoogle).<br />

  • I am having a lot of issues but the big one is that my menu, buttons and toolbar keep greying out

    I am having multiple issues and they all seem related to the menu/settings:
    • Every time I start Firefox, my bookmarks toolbar is invisible. The box to display Bookmarks Toolbar IS checked but I have to disable and then re-enable it on the toolbar menu in order to get them to display again.
    • "Tabs on Top" keeps defaulting to off. I check the box every time I run the browser, but every time I close it, it's back off again when I restart.
    • I keep getting tabs that cease to be interactive. They are stuck open and I cannot close, move, or pin them. In fact, if I try to click on the tab, it selects the tab immediately to the right of it. It's like Firefox does not realise these tabs exist.
    All of these are frustrating but I could handle them if this also wasn't happening:
    • Periodically, all my menus and buttons grey out and I am unable to use any of them. I can't click bookmarks, I can't use my back/forward buttons, I can't access anything on the menus. I can still use the URL bar and interact with the websites themselves. It seems particularly prone to doing this while I am adjusting settings or toolbars which unfortunately I have to do a lot because of the aforementioned issues. I have not yet been able to use the browser for longer than 15 minutes before it happens. I am having to restart it constantly.
    Potentially Helpful Information:
    I have reinstalled Firefox (once as an upgrade, once I uninstalled the original one first) several times at home in hopes this would help, but it has not.
    I am using Windows 7. (at work I am still running 2k and Firefox 4 works great)
    The only addons I am using are Morning Coffee, Personas, Adblock and Noscript. I use them also at work with Firefox 4 without issue. They are all updated for the latest version. Additionally, disabling them makes no difference in the presentation of these issues.

    If you are having that many issues, and if you have tried all five of the Five Rs, then what I would do is take it to an Apple store to the genius bar and let them look at it. It surely sounds as if there might be something wrong with the iPod itself, and if there is, and they can't fix it, they will give you a new one on the spot (assuming they have them in stock).

  • I cannot seem to get the tools button to come up on the firefox box, what do I need to do?

    I cannot seem to get the tools button in firefox, where can I find it or what do I need to do. I am trying to set a couple of home pages and the help section says to select the tool option and it is not there.

    First, please update to Firefox 18.0.2 [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
    Then, you should be able to click the orange Firefox button in the upper left corner, then options. Set your home page there. [[How to set the home page]]

  • I keep getting the FIrefox has stopped working error message, i don't have firefox installed, i have installed then removed firefox but it persists.

  • My menu button has started acting as the play button therefore I cannot get to the menu screen.

    Is there anyway to fix this or will it need a repair?
    many thanks,
    Robby

    You have to send it in for repairs if you can't Reset it by
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you can see any Red mark.
    Pressing Menu and Center Button together at the same time for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON.

  • I keep getting the Firefox start page with Google search. How do I get my homepage back?

    When I click the Mozilla Firefox icon, instead of my homepage I get a starter page with Google search. How can I get rid of the starter page and get my homepage back?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Started about a week and a half ago.

    Hello Linda.
    I fear your problem may be deeper than your homepage gone missing, but you can change your homepage easily by going into Tools > Options > General and entering the address you want in the "Home Page" field.
    I should warn you, however, that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment is outdated and is no longer supported. Please install the latest version for maximum speed, security and functionality. It's completely free, as always. You can get it through Firefox update service (Help > Check for updates...) or at www.getfirefox.com

  • Rotate Menu Buttons? Or at least the Text in the buttons?

    I can stretch the button left right up down, but can't rotate the button. Or can't seem to. Does anyone know how to do this?

    You can rotate Drop Zones but not text boxes (and not that level of text control)

    You can try to workaround making text in Photoshop

  • I keep getting the " firefox is up to date " screen after updating, it usually only occurs once , but i can't get rid of it.

    Every time i access the net two screens come up, one with my home site and the other with "Firefox is up to date", usually the later disappears after the first use, but it now stays there every time i try to use the net

    Thank you for your assistance. It was a corrupted preference file and your post resolved my problem. I have had a number of problems with preference file under lion.

  • Firefox opens but nothing shows/load in the window, not even menu buttons

    I open Firefox & a window opens but nothing loads or shows up, not even menu buttons. Occasionally when you blindly click around some menus will open but options beyond that don't produce anything.
    I have (not necessarily in this order):
    Uninstalled Firefox, deleted all remaining folders, then reinstalled (twice).... didn't help.
    Reverted PC back to before Firefox updated... didn't work.
    Uninstalled, Debugged my PC, reinstalled.... didn't work.
    Turned off firewalls & switched settings to make sure nothing was blocking it from working.... didn't work.
    At this point, after surfing Mozilla support site & not finding anyone else having this exact issue I'm not sure what else to do. I love Firefox & want to keep using it (I HATE using Internet Explorer) but the only other solution I can think of is use Google Chrome or IE.
    I have Windows 7, use McAfee, & SpyHunter. My laptop is less than 5 y.o. & I keep thing updated reg. so I don't think anything should be out of date or incompatible.
    Thanks!

    Hello,
    Currently in version 33, Firefox has implemented a new, faster way of loading webpages. This new feature is called OMTC. However, there are still some tweaks Mozilla developers are making to this.
    There is a known issue that Mozilla works on very hard to fix: if you are experiencing black webpages on some sites, here's what you can do to avoid the problem in the meantime:
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    * Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    To disable Hardware Acceleration
    * Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and select ''Options''.
    * In the Firefox Options (or Preferences) window, click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select ''General''.
    * In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    Now, exit Firefox, wait a few seconds, and then start it normally.
    Please let us know if this solves the problem. Engineering is also gathering more information about the issue would request that you fill out [http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/1851506/1c87a6cf309a this survey]
    I should also mention that other users with this problem had an embedded intel hd graphics card with an old driver present. Until Mozilla comes up with a fix, if you want Hardware Acceleration in Firefox, you can try to update your driver through the appropriate link below to see if that helps:

  • I am unable to find the Firefox button referred to in the following: At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button and then select Options

    Every instruction Mozilla offers to find or to do something contains a term or a phrase that is indeciphrable.
    I have been trying to change "Cookie Settings" so of course Mozilla advises me to click the Mozilla button at the top of the page. And of course there is no Mozilla button at the top of the page. Then after wading through Mozilla's arcane and moronic help sections I end up at the following:
    Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar.
    Why don't I see it? (the Firefox button)
    Apparently the Firefox button is a new feature added in Firefox 4 to replace the Menu Bar. The menu bar is displayed instead of the Firefox button to make Firefox look like other Windows XP programs. Windows XP? Are you kidding me? Windows XP. Earth to Mozilla: Have you heard of Windows 8 or Windows 8.1?
    Then your instructions go on to refer to Windows Vista and Windows 7. JFC!
    Then, under "How to get it?" Mozilla offers the following gem:
    Right click on an empty section of the "Tab Strip" and uncheck "Menu Bar" om the pop-up menu.
    WHAT IS A TAB STRIP; and WHERE IS THE TAB STRIP? Again, JFC!
    Since these instructions refer to Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7, apparently these instructions haven't been upgraded for more than 2 years. No wonder Mozilla is a non-profit organization. There is no way that this organization could ever be profitable under any other structure.

  • After downloading firefox to a new computer and using sync I no longer have any navigation bar or menu button.

    This is on a windows computer at work. It actually happened on 2 new computers. Before the sync, both the navigation bar and menu button were there. After the sync - Gone! I have tried uninstalling firefox and then reinstalling, but when I reinstall, the problem is already there, and the bookmarks from the sync reappear automatically on the reinstalled version. Is there any way to uninstall the sync?

    Currently UI customizations do not sync. However you can add this about:config.
    services.sync.prefs.sync.browser.uiCustomization.state = true

  • My new Menu Button that came with the latest update is now missing.

    I removed the button because it was bothering me thinking there would be no repercussions but now I can't find it because it contained the customization menus. I have searched through the other menu options but the only route to the customization is now hidden in the now missing button.

    Are you using the Classic Theme Restorer extension?
    *You can check out the settings of the CTR extension via its Options/Preferences button on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" page.
    *You can find extra toolbar buttons and more toolbar settings in Customize (3-bar Firefox menu button > Customize)

    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 next to 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
    *If you bookmark a page then "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu changes to "Edit This Bookmark"
    *You can make the the title bar visible via the "Title Bar" button at the bottom left in the Customize palette window
    It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu of a toolbar to have menus like the File menu with Print (Ctrl+P) and Print Preview and the Bookmarks menu available.

  • Why isn't the Firefox button right at the top anymore?

    When I was running the beta builds (up to B8), the Firefox button was right at the top right of the windows (as it is supposed to be). After updating to FF4B9 (and on), the button is displayed here: http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w111/troop172/FF4.png
    I have tried to uninstall/reinstall FF but it doesn't fix the problem.
    I am currently running FF4GM

    *There is now one large urlbar container that contains the location bar and the Back and Forward buttons and the combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is located at the right end of the location bar.
    *This urlbar container is locked to its position on the Navigation Toolbar and can't be moved.
    *This change also has the consequence that you can no longer hide the Navigation Toolbar, so you do not see this bar in the right-click context menu of the toolbar area that shows which toolbars to show or hide.
    Firefox 29 and later versions have the Australis interface that looks different than the user interface in Firefox 28 and older versions.
    *With the Australis interface the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three bar Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar<br>A consequence of this new menu button 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
    *It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu on the toolbars to have menus like the the Bookmarks menu
    You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.
