My firefox toolbar has disappeared and a stupid Yahoo one is there now

I went on Firefox tonight and my toolbar has disappeared and been replaced by a Yahoo one. There are no icons at the top, no Firefox icon, and my bookmarks are gone. I didn't do anything! Help!

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br />
If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.
If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key to make the menu bar appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"

  • My AVG safesearch toolbar has disappeared and I cannot seem to make it reappear.

    I have two problems.
    1.I finally downloaded the latest version of Firefox, which I had been trying to avoid since the last time I did so I had numerous problems. Now that I have done so, my AVG safe search toolbar has disappeared.
    2. In addition, when I previously visited secure sites, I could tell because a yellow padlock symbol would appear in the bottom right hand corner of the page. This has now gone, so I have no way of knowing if I am on a SSL site or not and I am worried by this as I do all my banking and shopping online.
    Can anyone please advise me on these matters? Thanks.

    Latest update: AVG has released an update version; 2012.0.2126 which fixed the AVG Safe Search add-on. If you upgrade to this version, your AVG Safe Search add-on will be ENABLED again by FF. Also AVG had added another add-on called "AVG Do-Not-Track". You can install it if you want it, which is an option when you upgrade.

  • Links toolbar has disappeared and can't get it back

    My "Links" toolbar has disappeared. I use the xmarks addon and it has not been able to fix it. This has also happenned on Internet Explorer on the same machine. I run the same version of Firefox and IE on another machine and laptop and the toolbar is there.
    When I rightclick next to the menubar, the Links Toolbar is not there to enable. Seems like some registery setting has been altered if it has affected IE as well as Firefox.
    Any ideas? Help would be most appreciated.

    Thanks, how do I view the photos titles as a list then as opposed to having to view them as small previews all the time? I was sure that at one stage I was viewing them as lists as opposed to a small preview each. I can't work out how I was doing that.
    Cheers,

  • I have installed bearshare and now when I open firefox, my homepage disappears and the my google search engine is now bearshare which I don't want.

    I installed bearshare as my program for downloading music, but after installation, my homepage has disappeared and my google search engine has changed to bear share.
    I want google as my default search engine.

    To revert to Google as your preferred search engine, please do the following.<br><br>
    * In the location bar, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter.<br><br>
    * In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL'''<br><br>
    * Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q=<br>
    The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "Copy Link Location" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.
    '''To reset your home page, do the following'''.<br><br>
    * Go to the site you want to set as your homepage.<br><br>
    * Click the orange Firefox button and go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''.<br><br>
    * Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu.<br><br>
    * Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen.<br>
    After you complete the above steps, install this add-on to prevent another search engine from modifying your preferences: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/browserprotect/
    ''''''EDIT'''''': After you complete the above steps, go to Add/Remove Programs and remove the Bearshare Media Bar. It may be called "BMB".

  • My Yahoo toolbar has disappeared and also my "bookmarks". How do I get them back on both gmail and yahoo?

    Hello Firefox:
    I am quite dismayed at changes that have recently been made on my two email accounts; gmail and yahoo.
    My yahoo toolbar has completely disappeared along with the bookmarks of which I had several.
    Not long ago my "favorites" list disappeared and I had to replace it with "bookmarks".
    WHAT IS GOING ON?
    I also do not like the e-mail changes with the send box having the "send" and other tools on the BOTTOM. How awful. Change doesn't always mean "better".
    Will you please advise me as to how I may get my toolbar and bookmarks back?
    ALSO, the e-mails do not fit my computer screen and many times I have shut down the e-mail and re-enter my passwords in order to get out of a page. CAN YOU FIX THIS? Everything worked so well before.
    Please tell me where I can get help with these items. I AM A VERY UNHAPPY CUSTOMER.

    Click Firefox (orange) button > Preferences > [x] check the yahoo Toolbar
    Press CTRL + SHIFT + O to show all the Bookmarks

  • Since the 3.6 upgrade, my bookmark toolbar has disappeared and I cannot add any bookmarks. The places.sqlite file is gone as is the Firefox folder in application support. It has been replaced by a Mozilla folder that has nothing in it.

    Firefox will not recognize the backup file for bookmarks. It says "unable to process backup file". There is no places.sqlite file to delete. There is nothing in the profile folder

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • My Firefox history has disappeared and I need help trying to restore it. Please help!

    CCleaner, out of no where, decided to delete most of my Firefox history the last time I used it. There's a tiny part of my browser history that's still there, but most of it's gone. If someone can PLEASE help me, you have no idea how grateful I would be.

    Firefox doesn't keep backup copies of the history like is done with the bookmarks, so if you didn't create such a backup yourself then you are probably out of luck.
    I don't know if Windows keeps previous (shadow) copies of the places.sqlite file.

  • The bookmarks toolbar has disappeared and will not show even though it is checked in the toolbar list.

    I did install the 4 beta, but went back to 3 because I hated the interface changes. I don't know if this is related or not.

    Check that you still have the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * Make sure that you have the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" then click the "Restore Default Set" button

  • My settings changed without notice and without my intervention. Yahoo is my homepage but I can't make it my homepage again. I get Google instead. Also, my bookmarks are messed up and the toolbar has disappeared and I can't recover it.

    I think that is enough detail.

  • The icon for Norton Identity Safe has disappeared and I can't figure out how to get it back on my toolbar.

    I use Norton which has a feature called "Identity Safe." In the old version of Mozilla, the icon for this feature was available on my toolbar. Now that I have converted to the latest version of Firefox, the icon has disappeared and I cannot figure out to get it back. I can still activate the Identity Safe by opening Norton, but I want to restore the shortcut.

    Symantec have made an update for their add-ons to work in Firefox 4, but they only listed them as compatible with Firefox 4.0, they need to update them to let them work in Firefox 4.0.1, they have indicated this will be happening soon.

    when i am on my home screen or locked screen, my battery usage and service toolbar has disappeared. How can i get it back?

    Yeah there's no setting for that. So either you don't have an iPhone, or your iPhone is jail broken. If it's jail broken, just restore to factory and all will be fixed :)

  • My Shape tool, which used to be in the left toolbar has disappeared. How do I get it back?

    I have PSE9 and have used PSE to edit screen shots. Some screenshots have required that I place an arrow to point to a specific location. I have used the shape tool for this purpose. For some reason, the shape tool has disappeared and I cannot figure out how to get it back. How can I restore the shape tool to the toolbar?

  • My graphics toolbar has disappeared (FrameMaker 11 on Windows 7).

    My graphics toolbar has disappeared (FrameMaker 11 on Windows 7).
    In View > Toolbars, the Graphics Toolbar item is checked.
    Clicking Graphics > Tools does nothing whatsoever.
    HELP!  I need to get the graphics toolbar back.

    Matt, Thanks for responding.  I finally found the graphics toolbar. It was docked--and hidden--in the row at the top with all the other shortcut icons. It was so far on the right that it was out of sight. It was revealed only after I (accidentally) stretched the FrameMaker window way out to the right and into my second monitor.  I apparently docked the toolbar there without realizing I'd done it.
