MY FIREFOX does not have a URL box, refresh, back/forward buttons or a tool bar with file, view, tools, etc.

<blockquote>Locking thread.<br>
Please continue here: [/questions/786744]</blockquote><br>
Hi again,
There's no bar that says file, tools, view, (other?) OR URL box, reload button or back/forward buttons, so I can't even do some of the things people are suggesting, like run in safe mode. This requires using the file button. The suggestions I'm getting all require using the bar that I don't have. I also uninstalled and reinstalled firefox to see if it would change, but it didn't. I've still got the same problem.
Would LOVE to take care of this soon. It's causing me to put some projects on hold. Annette

    I selected save password; but Firefox does not have it in the list of saved passwords??

    Firefox will only remember a password if you click the Remember button on the sliding bar at the top that opens when Firefox detects a password.<br />
    If you mean a check box on a web page to remember you then such a choice is stored in a cookie on your computer.
    * Websites remembering you and automatically log you in is stored in a cookie.
    * Create an allow cookie exception (Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions) to keep such a cookie, especially for secure websites and if cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
    * In [[Private Browsing]] mode all cookies are session cookies that expire if that session is ended, so websites won't remember you.
    * Do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences"
    Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and password exceptions.

  • I want to import bookmarks from Safari on the Mac same computer. Firefox help says Menu Bar/File/Import. My Firefox does not have File/Import option. How do I import bookmarks from Safari to Firefox?

    I want to import bookmarks from Safari on the same Mac computer. Firefox
    Help says use Menu Bar/File/Import.
    My Firefox does not have File/Import option.
    How do I import bookmarks from Safari to Firefox?

    Import and Backup is the third (last) button on the toolbar in the Bookmarks Manager (Library) that looks like a star.<br />
    Other platforms show the text label, but on Mac you only see toolbar icons.

  • I can not download newer themes. It continues to say So and so could not be installed because Firefox does not have the needed files. Also.. For the newer version, where is the tools option?

    I am trying to download a new theme. Lava theme. However, it will not let me download that or any other theme for that matter.
    It continues to say, So and so could not be installed because Firefox does not have the needed files. What does this mean?
    Also, on the newer version.. I can not find the tools option..

    The Firefox versions which come with many Linux distros have the default Mozilla Firefox updater disabled and use the distros built-in updater.

  • My tools feature in firefox does not have private browsing

    My motherboard was recently changed.previous to that my desktop had the private browsing feature in firefox.but after the change, the tools feature does not have private browsing settings. it only has "clear private data" setting.now how do i create a private bbrowsing setting?'''

    You currently seem to be running a Firefox 3.0.6 version according to the user agent and that version doesn't have Private Browsing mode.
    You should update as soon as possible to a currently supported release version.
    You can find the latest Firefox release in all languages and for all Operating Systems here:
    *Firefox 10.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

  • Windows Internet Explorer 7 has a Favorites feature that Firefox does not have?

    The feature which I will like to see in Firefox is the ability to type a first letter of the Bookmark that I want to get to in the listing.
    In Windows Internet Explorer 7 favorites listing, I can easily reach the part of my favorites list by typing the first letter of that part of the list I wish to reach. Obviously this makes this easier than having to scroll down to the part of the list I want using Firefox Bookmarks.

    Cor-el:
    I know you're trying to help, but your not being clear. I don't know what you are talking about. For example: How do I open the Bookmarks in the sidebar? Where is the sidebar? How do I get to the sidebar?
    Look, let me be helpful to you in your efforts to help me and others who have this question. What you need to do is tell us step by step what to do. For example, say you were telling us how to open up the Firefox browser. Here's an example of proper instructions:
    1. Press Start on your computer.
    2. Look for the Firefox Icon in the left panel and click on it.
    3. That will start the Firefox browser.
    Look, that's a simple example which, I'm sure, everyone can relate to. What's important is that you see what I mean by giving proper instructions.
    Remember Cor-el, some users do not have your level of understanding. So, you may have to assume you're talking to someone who is sort of brand new to this browser.
    Thanks for replying anyway.

  • My Firefox does not have the regular menu items how do I get them to show?

    I appear to not have the usual tool bars and am unable to make them appear. Usually this is not a problem but right clicking aon anything and everywhere gives me useless options.

    Ubuntu 11.xx and later displays window menus in the control bar at the top of the screen with the switch to the Unity window manager.
    * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Unity
    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 (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • The new version of firefox does not meet my customization needs, because I can't hide the navigation bar.

    In the old version of firefox, my window setup looks like this: http://puu.sh/8wFeJ.png
    I can't replicate this in the newer version, even in the classic view, I can't hide the navigation bar.

    With the classic view extension provided by Mozilla, you have the ability to move that, as well as the URL bar, back down to the bottom where I usually keep them. This leaves me with an empty navigation bar but no way to hide it.

  • When using (web accessed) yahoo email, firefox does not recognize my jump drive on my computer (but i can see when in file manager). Driver issue? Help/links?

    I'm using windows 8 and try to attach a file from my jump, but it is not recognized, although I can see it in file manager.

    Additional info. After restarting firefox and my computer, I was finally able to get to recognize the device, but now when I upload the file, it says file error and does not properly attach it. Ideas?

  • My computer currently does not have Lion, if I want to install it will it delete all my files?

    I have a MacBook Pro that I got a few years ago. I have a ton of files and documents saved on here. Will upgrading to OS X Lion delete them? Thank you.

    Upgrading from Snow Leopard will keep everything untouched, just the system will be upgraded. Nevertheless, you MUST bbackup your files, especially when doing an upgrade, even if it theoretically does not destroy anything. You write: ‘I have a ton of files and documents saved on here.’ Eactly from this reason, you MUST backup these files somewhere else than the disk inside your mac. What will you do if this disk dies one good day?

  • I can't import photos from my PC as my Itunes does not have a check box from Syncing under the photos option?

    I am trying to import my photos from the computer. I went into ITunes, connected my Iphone and went under the photo section expecting to see a check box for syncing. It's not there and all I have is a note about Icloud. Can anyone help?

    Hello evilemma72,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you do not see a checkbox to enable syncing photos, and instead see a message the iCloud Photos is on, then it indicates you have iCloud Photo Library enabled on your iPhone, and the photos already exist on your phone.  To learn more about iCloud Photo Library, take a look at the article below.

    Take care,

  • I am using firefox 3.6.23 on my old computer, I have a new laptop that I would like to transfer the bookmarks from the old to the new, but the old computers firefox does not have the sync tab under options, what now?

    I have a tower running windows XP, using Firefox 3.6.23. I have a new laptop running windows 7. I have just downloaded firefox 7. Now I want to bring the bookmarks form my old tower computer using firefox 3.6.23 to the new laptop using firefox 7.0. I got the instruction on how to sync the two computers, but I cannot find the sync tab under options in the firefox 3.6.23 computer. Will upgrading the tower's firefox to a newer version give me the sync tab under options?

    With firefox 3.6 I think you may have had to use sync as a separate add-on. If so try finding and installing that. Alternativly export your bookmarks from Firefox 3.6, then move that file, using any suitable method (eg removable media, email atacchment, computer network) to somewhere the new laptop can access it and imprt the bookmarks. Remember
    * back up your bookmarks (on both machines) before doing anything
    * importing standard firefox bookmarks overwwrites existing bookmarks
    * (if you just have a few bookmarks on one machine, consider exporting as HTML, when you import those they will append, instead of overwriting the existing files)
    See
    * [[backing up and restoring bookmarks]]
    * [[backing up your information]]
    * [[importing bookmarks and other data from other browsers]]
