My location bar, tool bar (file, edit, tools, bookmarks, help) all disappeared and cannot be restored. I have no back button, home button etc. the top of the screen is just an empty blue bar. Internet still works if I click on a hyperlink on the main page.
The problem started when I turned on the computer this morning. I tried to install Mozilla 4 from your website and that installed but I still have nothing on the top.

It may be due to Firebug. Seeing as how you're a web developer, it's very possible you have this installed. The latest version, 1.7X a10, appears to cause everything you described. I downgraded to "a8" and that seems to have fixed everything.
I also recreated a profile from scratch before trying this out, so I can't guarantee it's definitely Firebug.

edit: If you go to the Firebug forums, you'll see this is now a known problem. http://code.google.com/p/fbug/issues/detail?id=4012 for the issue tracker.

  • The "File Edit View Window Help" menu disappears after opening Adobe Acrobat X Standard

    After installing Adobe Acrobat X Standard, when I run the program the "File Edit View Window Help" menu is visible for only a brief second then disappears.  I tried to press F11 or other functions keys to bring it back.  I also installed Adobe Acrobat X Pro which I also have a license for and it would do the exact same thing. Reinstalling the programs did not seem to resolve the problem.  Is there an issue inside the registry?

    Thank you for your comment.  However, F9 does not seem to work.
    When I press F9, the menu bar appears but the words "File Edit View Window Help" are still missing.  
    When I press F9 again the menu bar will close.
    This is a screen capture before the words "File Edit View Window Help" disappear.  After only about a second they are gone.

  • I recently lost the capability to "view" the "File, Edit, History bookmarks, tools & help" bar from the top of my screen, as well as the "Start" button on the bottom of the screen.

    How do I get the "File, Edit, History, Bookmarks, Tools & Help Bar to appear on my browser. I also need my "Previous Page & Next Page" arrow... and my "Start" button to appear at the bottom of my screen. I can't navigate without these.

    Be sure you are not in Full Screen Mode. The F11 key will toggle Full Screen Mode on or off. If you have no Firefox toolbars, tab bar, etc., you are probably in Full Screen Mode; your Windows Taskbar (with the "Start" button) will also not be visible.
    *See --> http://kb.mozillazine.org/Netbooks#Full_screen
    You can choose to use the Menu Bar (''File, Edit, History bookmarks, tools & help'') or the Firefox button menu in Firefox 4 and newer versions.
    *See --> https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/common-questions-after-upgrading-firefox-36
    The Back/Forward button (''Previous Page & Next Page" arrow'') are on the Navigation Toolbar; be sure the Navigation Toolbar is checked (to be displayed)
    *See --> https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Back%20and%20forward%20or%20other%20toolbar%20items%20are%20missing
    Windows Start button and Windows Taskbar:
    *Be sure that "Auto-hide the taskbar" is '''''not checked''''' (if checked, moving the cursor pointer to the bottom of your monitor screen will cause it to slide up; it will disappear again when the cursor pointer is moved up from the bottom
    *It is best to '''check''' "Keep the taskbar on top of other windows" so that application windows like Firefox cannot cover it.

  • Location bar is not working since new update?

    With the recent firefox update I can no longer quickly go to websites by typing in the location bar. I used to be able to type a simple thing like "face" and it would give me options to select from such as: facebook.com.
    now though I can't even click the dropdown arrow for a list of my most frequently visited websites. How do I reenable this most useful of features?

    In the Tools menu select Options to open the options window. Select the Privacy panel and make sure the setting at the bottom of that dialog for the location bar "When using the location bar, suggest" is set to "History and Bookmarks".
    Another possible cause for the location bar no longer working is a problem with the file that stores history and bookmarks. For details on fixing that see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite

  • Airport Extreme and Airport Express are not found on the Airport Utility.  Internet still works.  Huh?

    Good People,
    I have an Airport Extreme serving as my wireless router with an external hard drive connected to it.  I also have an Airport Express in another room connected to a stereo for Airplay.  Neither can be found on the Airport Utility (v5.5.3), but wireless internet still works.  This happens often, with both reappearing in Airport Utility for short amounts of time periodically.  What's the deal?  Both the Extreme and Express are less than 6 months old.  It's a bit frustrating not getting tunes when you have everything set up right and not being able to use Time Machine consistently.
    All recommendations appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I've once had the same problem.
    The reason for that issue is the frequency (radio band) hopping of the station.
    On your AP-Extreme
    Enter the manual setup
    Disable Guest Network if not desperately needed
    Set a dedicated name for the 5GHz wireless (wireless -> wireless options)
    Eventually change the radio mode (if no 802.11b/g systems in your home) to "only 802.11n (5GHz) - only 802.11n (2.4GHz)" by holding down the option key *alt* while clicking on the drop down.
    On your Mac
    Disable (switch off) wireless
    Enter system configuration -> network -> wireless
    Uncheck "Ask to join new networks"
    Enter advanced options and check that your wireless name is in the first position of the list. If not, drag it with the mouse to the first position.
    Click apply
    Join your wireless again and try to connect to the 5GHz name (SSID) because the 5GHz will improve the connection speed of your Mac remarkably.
    Eventually you might change the settings on the Express too.
    Check the location of the AP-Extreme.
    It should NOT be placed: On the floor, in a corner, behind furniture, near metal objects, life high voltage wire or cordless phone bases.
    It should be placed: As high as possible (up on a shelf or ceiling mounted) with a maximum line of sight to all stations, even thru walls.
    If your home situation allows that, try to use the 5GHz band only. If you own a iPhone this must use the 2.4GHz radio.

    Recurring "connection failed" when selecting TimeCapsule in the sidebar (internet connection works fine).  Clicking "Connect As" starts the cyle over again but ends in "There was a problem connection to the server" message.  Only fix is resetting TC.
    The TC is the wifi base station, also have AirportExpress on the network, both of which work fine.  The TC has an external disc connected as well, which is also visible in the sidebar but also cannot be connected to.  Several MB computers use the network, all of which either can or cannot connect to the TC disc depending on when it is acting up.
    Any ideas other than clicking "connect as" or powering down the network every time? 

    Read up how to install 5.6 utility into ML.. it is pretty easy.
    I downloaded 5.6
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Download unpkg
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    Open the dmg to get the pkg.. drag it onto unpkg.. and it will create a directory under desktop with all the files.. drag the application to the utility directory.. or just run it direct.
    Google if you want more explicit instructions.
    Much easier with a real tool instead of a toy.
    Hold the option key when you select firmware update.. all the old ones will appear.
    But this will not work on newer Gen4.. only on every other model and early Gen4. .I do not know when they turned the corner and started this only 7.6 nonsense.

    Hi! first of all, thank you so much for your help.
    I don't know about that panel you are talking about.
    what I do is RIGHT CLICK, INTERACTIVE, NEW HYPERLINK, and a window pops up, where I paste the address (images).
    Where says URL I paste the complete address that the "sub page" gives me.
    Is that correct? (for the main page of the wabepage works correctly)

    Is it the Home button that doesn't work, or the Power (Sleep/Wake) button? If the Power button works, you can switch it off. Not sure how you have been able to do anything without the Home button working?
