The sprocket at the upper right end of the bookmark toolbar is missing--how do I get it back?

While attempting to figure out how to get the dotted square or blank icon to turn into a favicon, I noticed that the subject of my question was missing. I do not mean the internet options sprocket that is in the drop down menu under the 3 lines icon at the right end of the address/search menu bar.
Also, if you can give me any clues to how to fix the favicon issue, I would appreciate that.
Thank you.

I'm sorry but I don't remember there normally being a "gear" or "sprocket" icon on the right end of the Bookmarks Toolbar. Mine generally has an overflow icon (>>) which shows more bookmarks in a drop-down list. Do you have that one?
Do you have any bookmark-related add-ons that might have added the other icon? Perhaps it needs an update. You can check the status of your extensions and check for updates on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then:
(1) Make sure any bookmark-related extensions are enabled. Disabled extensions cluster at the bottom of the list on a gray background.
(2) Use the "gear" button above the list to Check for Updates.
Any improvement?

  • Upgraded to the 4 version and now my identity safe feature for norton is missing how do i get it back

    I upgraded to the newest version of Mozilla Firefox, and once it was installed and ready for use, my Identity Safe feature for Norton is missing. I do not know how to get it back in the toolbar area. So I retro-graded back to the 3.6-16 version of Firefox, and wallah it's there even the updated version too. So why doesn't my Norton Identity Safe appear with the new version????

    Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
    I do not know about the time scale for updates for other Norton products. Pending the update by Symantec, if you want to use the Norton add-ons you will need to downgrade to Firefox 3.6.
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

  • After upgrading to Firefox 6 the organize bookmarks command is missing, how do I get it back?

    In the old version of Firefox there was a way to move and organize bookmarks by clicking on the "Organize Bookmarks" link in the Bookmarks menu.

    Firefox: Please change the name back. "Show all bookmarks" does not mean the same thing as "Organize bookmarks". Why on earth did you think that the new name was better?

  • The mall grid button in the upper-right corner of the page that toggles the images on and off in a new tab is missing how do I get it back?

    I had a problem with some malware/adware by the time I got it removed it had altered much of Firefox.
    I have managed to correct everything apart from the thumb nails of frequently used sites on a new tab. I know there should be a 3 x 3 grid in the top right corner but it doesn't show. How do I get it back, please?

    You can reset the <b>browser.newtab.url</b> via the right-click context menu to the default value (about:newtab) to get the new tab page with the thumbnails.

  • I just upgraded to the iOS 5 and icloud, but now all my pictures are gone! How do I get them back?

    I have an iphone and just upgraded to the iOS 5 and icloud, but now all my pictures are gone! How do I get them back?? It's weird because it said with the upgrade your photos would be kept, but apps would be erased, yet my apps synced over and not my pictures...

    I have EXACTLY the same issue.  I would appreciate the response also.  Was not prepared for this.

    Did you backup the iPad first? If you did - restore from the backup in order to restore the photos in the Saved Album on your iPad. If the photos were synced to the iPad, then sync them back again via iTunes.

    If you did backup first, you will be restoring your most recent backup and you should be OK. But know that when you restore from a backup, you restore everything that is in that backup onto the iPad .... All documents, device settings, all data and so on. You cannot just select photos to restore to the iPad. It's all or nothing.

  • I can't start AE. Ae always shuts down. There is a Problem with the "AEDynamiclinkServer". I tried everything. But it doesn't work. How do I get AE back to work?

    What "everything" have you tried?
    What exact version number (down to the last decimal) is your AE?
    What OS are you using?
    What are your other system specs?
    When did it work last? What happened between then and now?

    You may have accidentally put it in a folder instead of deleting it. Check all your folders to see if it is in one.

    You could try emailing iTunes support, giving them your order number, etc. or you could just take the hit and pay the 99p.  I know what I would do.

    I have CS6 it use to have the Acrobat XPro now it is gone. Where did it go and how do I get it back?

    We can't know. You are not offering any system info or details on what product/ suite you are actualyl referring to by "CS6" nor do we know what update or install procedures on your system you may have done recently. There was an Acro update last week, perhaps it bombed and destroyed your Acro install...

    The music i've put into an imovie project has stopped working. How do I get it back?

    As far as I am aware, I have always used the standard keyboard and texting apps that came with the phone.  There is no swype option on the keyboard any longer. The keyboard is just standard numbers and letters that have to be pressed individually. When I go to settings to try to change anything in swype, it looks as it would if swype were working - it shows all the settings for swype are correct - it just doesn't show up when the keyboard pops up for any apps or function on the phone.
    I placed the phone in SafeMode and still not able to use swype.

  • The New Tab button on the right side of the last tab is missing.How do I get it back?

    The New Tab button on the right side of the last tab is missing on the Tab bar How do I get it back?

    For now, you can try using Ctrl + t to open new tabs if you can't open them otherwise, but try right clicking the tabs bar, clicking "customize," and then in the window that comes up try clicking the "restore default set" button. I don't know if it will work in your case but it wouldn't hurt to try.
