The boxes where I would type in search terms and URL are GONE! So is the BACK BUTTON. HELP!

I downloaded software to convert jpg files to pdf's, and it worked. however, I think it installed Incredimail, and I suspect that it installed Ask.com - neither of which I wanted. It was just after that that my back arrow and my boxes where i type in search terms and urls DISAPPEARED! Firefox is compatible with some important websites and has features that i need. NEED.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in Full Screen mode with all toolbars hidden.
* Press F11 to toggle full screen mode (Firefox/File > Full Screen)
If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" (Linux, Windows)
* If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
* If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

  • Where have the left and right arrows and and URL window gone from the middle of the Safari header bar?

    Where have left abd right navigation arrows and URL window gone from the Safari header bar at the top of the page?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    It looks like you hid the toolbar. Open Safari and go to View menu (on the menu bar) > Show Toolbar. If this doesn't work, choose Customize Toolbar and drag the options you need

  • Google search does not search after entering search term and pressing enter.

    When I type a search term into Google and then hit Enter, the page is inert. It does not go to search results. Or if I type a search term and select the Instant search suggested term and hit Enter, the search results page does not appear. If I go into Google settings and turn off Instant, then the Google Search works, but it is a waste of time to always have to turn off Google Instant. There is some conflict between Firefox and Google Instant because there is no problem using Google Instant in Internet Explorer.

    If that is correct, updating your system software may help the Safari toolbar issue.
    Click Software Update from your Apple menu OR open System Preferences > Software Update > Check Now
    Restart your Mac after the updates are installed then try Safari.
    If your software is actually up to date, from the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab.
    If you have any extensions installed, turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If the address bar reappears, uninstall one extension at a time, quit and reluanch Safari to test until you find the one that's blocking the address bar.

  • My computer screen keeps going blank and then going back to the box where I put my password in to start my comp. Why is this happening?

    My computer (Macbook) was working fine this am. I left it for an hour and then came back and the screen was black (always does that as the screensaver hardly ever works). I moved the mouse to wake it up and everything was normal. I went to adjust the volume and the screen went blank and the main page with the box where I put my password in when I first start my comp appeared. I put my password in and everything was normal again. I opened a window in Safari and before it loaded completely the same thing happened, the screen went blank and went back to the password box. Does anyone know why this is happening? I don't have an external hard drive or any blank flash drives so I can't back anything up right now and am afraid I'm going to lose everything. Thank you

    Sounds like hardware failure, called boot loop. Call Apple and or go on apple.com and make Genius Bar appointment to have your iphone reviewed by a Tech. Provided you iphone shows no physical or liquid damage they will take care of you, or if you have Apple Care Plus

    In the second step of bootcamp, I am supposed to either check the box where it says create a windows install disk, what exactly is this? Do I need to do this? I have a windows 7 install disk, but I don't know what this means.

    If you already have Windows on a DVD or USB drive, you don't have to tick that option. That's only for people who have Windows on a ISO file and have to burn it into a USB drive

    To input my apple ID, I went to the correct screen on the apple TV and typed in my apple ID. Below the box where the ID is typed in it says submit. How do I use my apple tv remote to trigger submit?

    Thanks for responding.  One of the previous answers resolved my problem.  You keep selecting the right arrow until the highlight move off of the letter/number board and highlights the submit.

  • Hi. I am reinstalling Macbook Pro OS X from the "question mark icon". During process, there is a question "select the disk where to install Mac OS X" but there is no option/selection in the box. I really need your help guys. I need it badly. :'(

    Hi. I am reinstalling Macbook Pro OS X from the "question mark icon". During process, there is a question "select the disk where to install Mac OS X" but there is no option/selection in the box. I really need your help guys. I need it badly. :'(

    If you got the question mark and you do not see any partition to install OS X to, it is not good.
    Close the OS X installer by pressing the red button at the top left corner of the Install OS X window, and open Disk Utility. Then, look at the left sidebar and tell me if you see your hard drive. You should see something like this:
    Do not worry if you do not see Macintosh HD or if the option with an arrow shows a different name. This is normal.
    If you see it, choose it, go to the Erase tab and erase the drive. Finally, close Disk Utility and reinstall OS X. You will lose everything if you do not have a backup.
    If you do not see the drive, it is damaged and it has to be replaced. You can replace the hard drive of a MacBook Pro without voiding the warranty, and any 2'5" SATA hard drive is valid. If you are not an experienced user or you do not want to go inside the MacBook, take it to an Apple Store or reseller.

  • Downloaded Firefox 4; type in search term; no action takes place

    Firefox 4 comes up as my start up page. When I type in a term and hit enter, the program takes no action whatsoever. In order to search, I have to use my dropdown menu to go to the previous Firefox, which then works normally. I would like to have the new Firefox 4 work or return to the previous version. I have windows 7.

    If you have AVG Safe Search installed, disable it in the Add-ons | Extensions menu (click the Firefox button to go there).
    It blocks use of the Enter key in the location bar.

  • I loaded a jZip programme, now whenever I start Firefox it open with the jZip search page and I can't permanently change the home page to my own selection. How can I get rid of theis iZip home page

    I have tried all the optons to change the home page, but when I exit from Firefox and restart, it will revert to the iZip search engine home page. I even deleted the izip search engine reference from the searchplugin directory but with no success

    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar and do a search for <i>jzip</i> via the Filter at the top of the about:config page.<br />
    You can reset all <i>jzip</i> related prefs via the right-click context menu to their default values.
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

  • Why does my iPhoto seem to get "stuck" a lot of times to the point where I have to force quit it and how do I fix it?

    Why does my iphoto seem to get "stuck" a lot of the times when I try to exit it to the point where I have to "force quit" it and how do I fix the problem that causes it?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    does this only happen when you try to quit iPhoto?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
