The address window has shrunk. How can I make it longer so I can see the address (or most of it at least)?

I have updated to Firefox 3.6.23 for Mac. I have OS 10.4.11. Immediately I noticed that the address window has been reduced to about half an inch. The search window is long, like the address window used to be. This is not good for me. I usually use the address window to make changes and move to a new page. I cannot do this now. How can I make the address window long again? Can I go back to 3.6.22? I need that long window.
Sincerely,
Gerald E. Strickland

You can place the mouse between the location bar and the search bar and it will become a resize icon.<br />
Press the left mouse button and drag it to the right to make the location bar wider.
You can also reset the relative wides by deleting localstore.rdf in the Firefox Profile Folder

  • The Safari address bar has disappeared how do I get it back?

    The Safari web address bar has disappeared, how do I get it back?

    Thanks Roger I can now see the name of the website and if I right click on the name it shows me the web address. I used to be able to see the web address e.g. "https//google.co.uk" in this bar without having to right click on the name, is there a way of bringing this back?

  • I backed up my ipod during a windows backup.  how do i find those ipod files(not itunes) in the windows backup files? i've tried searching and i can't find

    i backed up my ipod during a windows backup.  how do i find those ipod files(not itunes) in the windows backup files? i've tried searching and i can't find

    so i plugged in my ipod and it asked if i wanted to backup the files before restoring it. 
    Do you mean iTunes asked if you wanted to backup files before restoring? If so the it is in the location I posted. You don't need to navigate to the backup. Once your restore your iPod it will ask if you want to restore from a backup and present you with the backups made before hand.
    To restore information from a backup, use one of the following methods after connecting your iOS device to the computer with which you normally sync:
    -Click the File menu and select Devices > Restore from Back up.
    Or
    -Open the iOS device's Summary tab. There are two ways to access this:
    -Click the device button in the upper right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper right corner. The device button will then be visible.)
    -From any view in iTunes, click the View menu and select Show Sidebar. Select your iOS device in iTunes under Devices.
    -Click the Restore Backup button.

  • My school has a website.  The professor uploads files in Word.  When I click on the link at home using Pages, the download window opens with nothing in it and Safari opens with a blank in the address book.  What Could be wrong?  Wrong set up?

    Hi Jo,
    If I'm interpreting this correctly, the Word file downloads correctly, but when you open it in Pages, the link(s) which your instructor has embedded in the Word file are not correctly translated into Pages.
    If the link shows the actual address, you should be able to copy that and paste it into the location bar in Safari, press return, and get to the website that way.
    An alternate route might be to download one of the open source Office applications, OpenOffice.org, LibreOffice, or NeoOffice. These are written to more closely emulate the behaviours of MS Word than Pages, and may provide better support for links embedded in Word files.
    Regards,
    Barry

    You should also ask this in the iPad forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

    Have a 802.11n time capsule, the range of the wireless network has shrunk down to nothing over last few days. Used to be able to use wireless network anywhere in house, but now can only use in my office. Will not connect to iphones, ipad, itouch, or notebook. Worked fine last week, but over weekend just started having issues.

    It is very possible that you may have some form of Wi-Fi interference that has appeared recently that is preventing your Time Capsule (TC) from providing a clean RF signal.
    I suggest you perform a simple site survey, using utilities like iStumbler, or AirRadar to determine potential areas of interference, and then, try to either eliminate or significantly reduce them where possible. Look for other Wi-Fis that may be operating nearby. Note those with the strongest signals and which channels they are operating on ... then change the channel used by the TC to be at least 3-5 channels away.

  • How can I make a shortcut which will enter my email address in an input widow of a web page?

    how can I make a shortcut which will enter my email address in a website window.

    That is controlled by the web browser you are using. It is called Auto Fill in most of them. I don't use Safari so I'm not sure how that works in that browser.
