The navigation toolbar is broken in firefox 4.0b6 for mac PPC. How to fix?

I’m running an eMac G4 with system 10.5.8. The entire navigation toolbar on firefox 4.0b6 is “broken.” The buttons are grayed out and will not function. Typing in an URL will not work either. In fact, nothing works. Is there a way to fix this or do I have to wait for the next incarnation of Firefox to be ready for release?

Firefox 4 will not work on the PPC Mac. The system requirements for Firefox 4 on the Mac are:
* 32- and 64-bit builds (universal binary)
* minimum version: Mac OS X 10.5
* CPU architecture: i386, x86-64

Where do I find the option "save frame as" in Firefox 4.0 for MAC ?

In Firefox 3.6 for MAC I used the option ''save frame as'' from the FILE-menu to genereate a file called ''Container.aspx.html'' which I could open afterwards with Excel. It was good solution for not loosing the format of columns in html when going to Excel.
Now I have upgraded to Firefox 4.0 for MAC and it seems that the option "save frame as" is no longer available in the FILE menu? Thanks in advance for helping me out.
Kind regards,
Joeri

Thanks for the help but I press customize and I see the bar I want
with a how do tab, the bar I want (Reload button next to Stop button)
and a bookmark line.
I tried something and didn't work.
So had to Restore Default.
Saving the url so I can get back here.
Any takers to make an easy procedure as I review all the
above again. Thanks again everyone.
ED: Yeah I read the help on the buttons again and the drag and drop
solution is just too vague and no attention to the presentation to what
is puzzle to behold. Hey I DO NOT see all those button choices.

Java broken in Firefox after Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 3

After having updated my mac this morning with the latest Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 3, Java in Firefox is no longer working. When I open a site that contains a java applet (like javatester.org) I get the following output in the Console, and then Firefox hangs.
21.10.10 11:44:15 [0x0-0x33033].org.mozilla.firefox[649] ### MRJPlugin: getPluginBundle() here. ###
21.10.10 11:44:15 [0x0-0x33033].org.mozilla.firefox[649] ### MRJPlugin: CFBundleGetBundleWithIdentifier() succeeded. ###
21.10.10 11:44:15 [0x0-0x33033].org.mozilla.firefox[649] ### MRJPlugin: CFURLGetFSRef() succeeded. ###
Any ideas??

Problem solved!
For some reason I had an additional "Java" Folder (/Library/Java) with a different Java sdk. After removing this folder and (just to be sure) replacing it with a symlink to /System/Library/Java everyting works again.

After installing 9.0.1 twice on Win7, Firefox does not open websites in the navigation toolbar. Nothing happens when I put in any normal web address.

Firefox now takes an enormously long time to open now that I have upgraded to 9.0.1. The bigger problem is that the navigation toolbar where I enter web addresses does not function when I hit the enter key or by selecting the small arrow key right next to the web address. Win7 64bit, no detectable viruses.

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

In Firefox 4 the dropdown menu next to the forward button in the Navigation Toolbar that allowed the user to select another page in the history to go back to is gone. Why?

In Firefox 3, the user could access a dropdown menu by hovering over a small black arrow next to the forward arrow in the Navigation Toolbar. This allowed the user to go to earlier pages in the browser history, rather than using the back button to go to the immediate previous page.
After updating to Firefox 4, this menu disappeared. Was it moved? Was it removed?
I found this feature to be very useful. Why was it changed?
Nick

There are two ways to get this: (1) Hold the back button until the menu appears (2) Right click the back button. See the screenshot below for reference.

In Firefox 36.0.1, can I show ONLY copy and paste in the navigation toolbar without showing cut?

In Firefox 36.0.1, can I show ONLY copy and paste in the navigation toolbar without showing cut?

Do you only want this to happen if you right-click in the location/address bar?
You can ddd code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/userChrome.css
<pre><nowiki>@namespace url("https://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#urlbar menupopup menuitem[label="Cut"] { display:none !important; }
</nowiki></pre>
The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
*Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
*Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in the chrome folder (file name is case sensitive)
*Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window
*Make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
*Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css. Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file

How can I get the 'recent pages' feature back in the navigation toolbar Firefox 4.x?

I use Firefox 3.6.17, Dutch version. At home i've updated to firefox 4. But I miss in this version one of the nicest features (i think): In the navigation toolbar on the left side (in version 3.x), you can browse back and forward and also there is a small arrow that shows the pages that you have visited (I don’t know the name in English, but in Dutch it is called recente pagina’s, literally translated recent pages). In version 4.x this little arrow has disappeared.
How can I get it back in version 4.x?

Click-hold the unified Back / Forward button, or right-click it to get the Back / Forward history for that tab.
Or install this extension to get the old "drop-marker" button restored.

The "Go back one page" button on the Navigation toolbar doesn't work on certain web pages.

== Issue
==
Firefox is having problems with certain web sites
== Description
==
The "Go back one page" button on the Navigation toolbar doesn't seem to work on certain pages. On clicking this button, the focus stays on the same page and does not move to the previous page. The previous page does not appear even in the right-click context menu of the Back button. However, I am able to go back one page using Internet Explorer.

Try to open the right-click context menu of the Back button and see if you can go back further.
The current active entry in that list has a bullet in front of it.
If you hover an entry in that session history list then it shows the direction by adding an arrow at the left.
You can left click an item to open it in the current tab or middle-click or Ctrl left-click an entry in that list to open that link in new tab, just like you can with other links.

In the navigation Toolbar following the yellow bookmark star you find a small blue triangle. When you click it a number of bookmarks show up. How can I add new booksmark to be displayed out of my unsorted bookmarks? Thanks.

Dear Sir, Mam,
In the navigation toolbar on the right side of the bookmark yellow star you find a small blue triangle. When you click it, some of the selected bookmarks show up and can be called up immediately.
I have deleted some without problem, but I could not add new ones. I would like to have there at least 10 items.
Please explain how to add new bookmarked items to this shortcut list. Thank you, sincerely Th. Brandt. [email protected]

Is that the Bookmarks Menu button ?

How to show bookmarks on the navigator toolbar using userchrome?

Hello, I am suing Firefox in the kiosk mode using R-Kiosk, and I have hidden the exit button, urlbar and searchbar in fullscreen using userchrome. I would like to put my bookmakrs instead of the urlbar, using userchrome - simple drag and drop does not work for me.

Did you try to customize the Navigation Toolbar and remove the location bar and search bar and move the Bookmarks Toolbar items to it?

You may need this extension if you want to leave the search bar.

Suddenly URL's will show in the Navigation Toolbar–stays blank

Yesterday, I noticed that no URL's will show in my navigation tool bar–it stays totally blank all the time. Also, this weird little "mozilla.com tool showed up on the Navigation toolbar. What the heck? Obviously I nedd access to URL addresses. I am using FireFox 3.6 on MAC PowerBook. Could it be some kind of automatic update? Its driving me crazy. Thanks!

No, sadly nothing worked. I've done everything but its the same. Also, having a strange problem suddenly getting kicked off my server–I know...they shouldn't be related but they both just started happening. Anyway that's why its been a few hours since I was able to respond. I see now that the "tool" that suddenly showed up IS a bookmark tool-where did that come from–how could something like that just show up? I've looked everywhere to turn it off but no go. Also still a blank navigation area )) : Man am I frustrated with this. Thanks for your help. If you have any more suggestions they would be much appreciated.

Bookmarks icon disappears from the Navigation Toolbar

There are two different bookmarks icons available for the Navigation Toolbar:
– a drop-down list version (distinguishable by its down-arrow)
– a panel version that opens the Bookmarks panel on the left side of the screen
The panel version works just fine for me if I drag it onto my Navigation Toolbar from the Customize Toolbar menu, but I prefer the drop-down list version. When I put the drop-down list version onto my Navigation Toolbar, it seems to work at first. However, when I click "Done" on the Customize Toolbar menu, the Bookmarks icon (drop-down list version) disappears!
Removing and adding it does not solve the problem.
Choosing "Restore Default Set" does not solve the problem, even though the drop-down list version is part of the default set.
Side notes:
1) The Reload and Stop icons also disappear, but I expect that, since they effectively merge into the location bar.
2) Other odd behavior: If I put the panel version icon immediately to the left or right of the Reload, then the Reload icon remains in the Navigation Toolbar (to the right of the location bar). The Stop icon does not exhibit this behavior; it always disappears. After playing around for a bit, I ended up in a situation where the Reload icon would never disappear, no matter which icon was next to it. I was only able to stop this behavior by choosing "Restore Default Set".

This might be a problem with the way Ubuntu modifies Firefox.
Does disabling Ubuntu Firefox Modifications has any effect?
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Note that you will only see the Bookmarks Menu button with the drop-down list when the menu bar is hidden and Ubuntu displays window menus in the control bar at the top of the screen with the switch to the Unity window manager.

I cannot get the STOP button to appear in the Navigation Toolbar, even after going through the suggestions; it will appear when the Restore Default Set window is open, but disappears as soon as DONE is clicked

The X for STOP loading the page does not appear in the Navigation Toolbar. If I do the right click, select Customize, Restore Default Set, it appears; click Done and it disappears. I have disabled the theme; disabled all extensions; reset the toolbar & controls; unchecked the acceleration. No luck.

Starting in Firefox 4, the Go, Stop and Reload buttons are combined in one button at the right end of the URL or Address bar. The button changes depending on the activity:
*green Go arrow when typing in the address bar
*red Stop ("X") button while page is loading
*gray Reload (circular arrow) when page is finished loading.
Separate buttons are possible:
#Open Customize Toolbar window by clicking Firefox button > Option > Toolbar Layout '''''OR''''' clicking View > Toolbars > Customize if using the Menu Bar '''OR''' right-click in an empty space on a toolbar and choose Customize
#Stop and Reload buttons will show separated between the address bar and the search bar
#drag the buttons anywhere on the Navigation toolbar
#*order Reload-Stop will combine into one button
#*order Stop-Reload will remain separate buttons
#*or drag a "Separator" from the Customize window between Reload-Stop and they will remain separate
#click Done at bottom right of Customize window to finish

After upgrading to FF 20.0 (Ubuntu Linux), some of the icons to the right of the Search Box on the Navigation toolbar disappeared - Springpad, Evernote, etc.

After upgrading to FF 20.0 some of the icons (not Favicons) to the right of the Search Box on the Navigation toolbar keep disappearing. The icons are Springpad Clipper extension, Evernote, Ghostery, Greasemonkey, Pocket. Each time I start FF some (or all) of them are missing. I tried a "Reset Firefox". The first time after the reset, after syncing, all the icons appeared. The second time (now) the Springpad icon has disappeared.

You can check for problems with the localstore.rdf file.

What should I do to keep icons from disappearing from the navigation toolbar every few days? These are icons I dragged to the toolbar from the Customize screen.

I have several icons on the navigation toolbar that I dragged from the Customize screen. Every few days these icons disappear. In order to get them back, I have to drag them again from the Customize screen. How can I keep this from happening? I'm using Firefox 8.0.1, but the same thing happened in earlier versions.
