Top bar does not show for displaying PDFs in browser

The top bar (the one that has: File-Edit-View-Documents-Tools-Window-Help) displays when the Preference is set to NOT display PDFs in my browser. But when I set the Preference to display PDFs in my browser, the top bar does not display.
How can I get the top bar to display when my Preference is to display PDFs
in my browser? That is the manner in which I use Acrobat Reader 90 percent of the time.
I am using Acrobat Reader 9 which I just downloaded yesterday, my operating system is Windows XP (with Service Packs 1 and 2) and my browser is Internet Explorer.
Can anyone here help me? Or is there a better place to get help on this?

Well the problem is that, in Windows, the menu bar is owned by the application. When you view the PDF in the browser, the browser owns the menu bar and chooses what to show. Hence it shows only the browser items and not the Reader menus. If you view it outside the browser, Reader is running stand-alone and shows it's menu items.
I think, all you can do is show make sure the button bars you want are exposed by default.

Awesome bar does not show history

Hi all,
My history no longer shows in my address bar. I have tried several fixes I found around the internet, such as starting and safe mode and checking the settings on the privacy tab. The problem persisted in safe mode and after manually disabling all my addons and removing my themes.
I tried uninstalling and downloading Firefox again. No effect.
When the problem began, the location bar setting under preferences was set to show history and bookmarks. I tried setting it to only history, and it only showed bookmarks I had recently viewed. I tried setting it back to history and bookmarks and it showed only bookmarks again. I would imagine that this means that the location bar is not properly reading from the folder that contains my history, but I don't have the computer know-how to confirm, let alone fix, this problem.
I am rung the most recent version of Firefox on a mac.
Thanks for your help,
John

Hello,
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.
Either enter '''about:support''' in your address bar, or go to:
* Help (or [[Image: New Fx Menu]] > [[Image: Help-29]]) > Troubleshooting Information
Beside Profile Folder, click the "Show Folder" button to access the location of the file. Make sure it isn't read only. You can also install the [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/places-maintenance/ Places Maintenance] extension to run maintenance on the file. Please read the following articles first as they provide helpful hints and instructions that may be relevant to you:

I updated firefox and now everything i click on below the tab bar does not work for any website! please help

it was working fine before i updated to the new Firefox version 8. can i delete this version or can i fix this problem

Do you have AVG Safe Search installed? It blocks use of the Enter key after typing in a search string.
Disable it by clicking the Firefox button, go to Add-ons, then Extensions. You should be able to find it in there.

Remote content bar does not appear for some emails with images specifically daily Twitter updates. Changing options to allow all remote content has no effect

The broken image symbol appears in place of the images but associated web links do work ok.
Changing options to allow all remote content has no effect. Senders' addresses are in my address book and on the exceptions list.
Some emails (from other sources) load perfectly. Using Kaspersky Internet Security 2015 on Windows 8.1. Thunderbird 31.4.0
Any help appreciated.

You only need to post a URL to your web site. We can see your code in Browser.
So, your page looks OK to me in Firefox, but when I tried to check it in IE, it choked my browser and closed it.
You have quite a few code validation errors - no document type declaration, etc... Start by fixing these reported errors.

my xmarks will not synch - it just runs continually
my google search bar does not search - it just returns and does nothing - i read that having personas causes this - but i had them before
i understand there are other issues with incompatibilities in 3.6.9 - are fixes on way

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).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks.

I have recently upgraded my iMac Intel G5 iSight to OS 10.6.8 and now the internal mic does not work with skype or facebook. I can here static when playing back clips. Do I need to update firmware or reload old sys parts

I have recently upgraded my iMac Intel G5 iSight (iMac5,1) to OS 10.6.8 and now the internal mic does not work with skype or facebook. I can here static when playing back clips. Do I need to update firmware or reload old system parts. I have zapped PRAM. The blue indicator in system audio panel will appear for a second as I slide the bar for internal mic but then it disappears. Is there a fix?

The sound seems very faint but can here static on playback.

The "Awesome Bar" is not working. It does not recall anything from the Bookmarks

Just updated to new Firefox. In the past, when I would start to type a site in the address bar firefox would complete it as it was already in my bookmarks. But now it does not do anything. It just sits there waiting for me to complete the address. I could start to type Netf and it automatically finish Netflix.com
Why is this happening. Also, for the first couple days of the new version I had to go back into Tools, Options and reset things at least 3 or 4 times before they would finally stay the way I wanted them.
I would tell it Never Remember History and after while I would look and it would say, Remember History. I wanted a Blank Start page, and it kept changing it. It's okay now but the Awesome Bar is not working at all.

Do your bookmarks show up in the auto-suggest drop-down list?
''If not:'' Under Options > Privacy, in the bottom section, does it still show that Firefox should suggest Bookmarks in the Location bar?
If auto-suggest works but the autofill isn't happening, you could double-check that it has not been disabled here:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''autof''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) If the '''browser.urlbar.autoFill''' preference is bold and "user set" to false, double-click it to switch its value back to the default value of true. That should work in new tabs.
It's it already true, hmm, I wonder whether this is a private browsing issue? (I didn't test with automatic private browsing.)

Just upgraded to iTunes 10.6 and now it says it does not support Quicktime

Just upgraded to iTunes 10.6 and now it says it does not support Quicktime. Not much more to add. It's a MacPro running Lion.

So, I have managed to fix the problem.
I found that the upgrade had replaced my library files with empty ones.
So I restored the backup I made of them before the upgrade and
now all my media is back.
Great..
For those who run across this therad and haven't taken the effort to make a backup here is another approach that should work.
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

In Photoshop Element 9, when opening the Organise section, the top bar does not show File, etc.?

Just reinstalled Photoshop Ele,ents 9 onto Windows 7.
In the Editt part,on opening, all is well. This clearly show the top bar where youcan call and enter from the file to work with items on your computer.
However, on the Organise section, this to bar does not show at all, therefoere you are unable to do any work as you cannot import items from anywhere.
How do I get this to work now.

You should ensure your font/text size is 100% or 96 dpi in the Windows control panel or you may need to adjust the native screen resolution of your monitor. Alternatively try keyboard shortcuts to access the menus.

HT4061 iphone 3GS screen locked, slide bar does not work

Iphone 3GS. The slide bar does not work, ie the screen lock does not unlock. I have tried to reset (power and home buttons) and also to restore my iphone several times using iTunes without any success. Any suggestions? My son uses the phone now for games, so it has no carrier.

A reset can be done by tapping and holding the Home button and the Sleep/On/Off buttons at the same time for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears.

The location / awesome bar is not autocompleting anything

After upgrading FF to version 4, the awesome / location bar does not display/autocomplete any history, bookmark, etc. Of course, I check the settings and they are OK (when using location bar, suggest history and bookmarks). And I'm not talking about my previous FF3 history, but also the new history is not showing.
I upgraded from one of the latest 3 version, in Mac OS X 10.5.8

This is still an issue with Firefox 8.0.1 on all versions of OSX 10.5, 10.6, and 10.7 when using NFSv3, NFSv4, and AFP home directories. This has been an issue for all versions of Firefox >= 4. For some reason, the Awesome bar works in the latest versions of the Firefox 3 series. We don't want to rely on that because we don't know when you will stop updating it.
