What happened to moving the menu bar to the icon in the upper left hand corner ?

Firefox used to do this really neat thing where you could relocate the menu bar to the Firefox icon in the upper left hand corner of the browser. The menu itself was changed and rearranged as well. All you had to do is click on the Firefox icon in the upper left hand corner of the browser and the menu bar would appear as a menu from that icon at the same time hiding the menu bar. What happened to that feature?

That has never been a built-in feature of Firefox 3.6.* or earlier versions. Firefox 4 will introduce a button that replaces the menu bar, if you had a similar feature in an earlier version of Firefox it would have been added by an extension.
Possible extensions that you may have used are [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4550/ Compact Menu 2] or [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1455/ Tiny Menu].

  • I tried to establish the Menu Bar in Firefox 4, but the process did not work. I had to reinstall Firefox 3. Why?

    I installed Firefox 4 on my Vista based PC, and there was not Menu Bar nor was there a Status Bar. I followed the instructions in the help article, but I couldn't get either tool bar to appear. The main problem was I did not get the temporary Menu Bar when I pressed the Alt key and released it. Since I use the Menu Bar all the time, I ended up reinstalling Firefox 3. From what I saw of Firefox 4 it seems to be a good upgrade, but I need my tool bars. Is there some other way to get the Menu bar without using the Alt key?

    The Firefox Button in the upper left has replaced the Menu Bar but you can, optionally use the Menu Bar; instructions below
    The Status Bar has been replaced by the Add-on Bar in Firefox 4, by can get some of the functionality by installing an Add-on; see below.
    <br />
    <br />
    You can turn the Menu Bar on/Firefox Button off in Firefox 4. You have the Menu Bar on.
    To '''''toggle''''' the Menu Bar on/off (Firefox Button off/on), do one of the following to check/un-check (on/off) Menu Bar:
    *HOLD the ALT key while pressing the letters VTM on your keyboard
    *Using the Menu Bar: click View > Toolbars, click Menu Bar
    *Using the Firefox Button: click Firefox Button > Options, click Menu Bar
    <br />
    <br />
    '''<u>The Status Bar has been eliminated and replaced by the Add-on Bar</u>'''. You can restore some of the prior Status Bar functionality on the new Add-on Bar by
    *installing the Status-4-Evar extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/
    *Be sure the Add-on bar is diplayed at the bottom of the Firefox 4 window
    **Ctrl+/ toggles the Add-on Bar displayed or not displayed
    **Firefox button > Options '''''OR''''', if you are optionally using the Menu Bar instead of the Firefox button, View > Toolbars '''''OR''''' right-click in a blank space on a toolbar::
    ***if no check mark next to Add-on Bar, click Add-on bar to place a check mark.
    ***If Add-on bar has a check mark, it is already displayed
    *then drag 3 widgets to the Add-on Bar from the Customize Toolbar window (the 3 widgets are: Status Text, Progress Meter, Download Status). To open the Customize Toolbar window
    **Using Menu Bar: click View > Toolbars > Customize
    **Using Firefox button: click Firefox button, click small arrow to the right of Options, click Toolbar Layout
    **Note: Instead of either of the above, you can do as in the past, right-click an empty space in the Navigation toolbar and choose Customize
    *set options for Status-4-Evar:
    **Menu Bar: Tools > Add-ons, click on Status4Ever, click Options, set options to your liking
    **Firefox button: click Firefox button, click Add-ons, scroll down to Status-4-Evar, click Options, set options to your liking

    I cannot log onto the App Store, the page appears when I call it from the dock or the Apple menu and I can call the log-in box from the menu bar, but on signing in the spinning icon just keeps spinning,(not the beachball).  Using 10.6.7 and up-to-date on all software. Any suggestions?

    Could be a third party app preventing you from being able to login.
    Mac App Store: Sign in sheet does not appear, or does not accept typed text
    If it's not a third party issue, follow the instructions here.
    Quit the MAS if it's open.
    Open a Finder window. Select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left then open the Library folder then the Caches folder.
    Move the com.apple.appstore and the com.apple.storeagent files from the Caches folder to the Trash
    From the same Library folder open the Preferences folder.
    Move these files Preferences folder to the Trash: com.apple.appstore.plist and com.apple.storeagent.plist
    Same Library folder open the Cookies folder. Move the com.apple.appstore.plist file from the Cookies folder to the Trash.
    Relaunch the MAS.

  • What does the question mark in upper left hand corner mean

    what does the question mark in upper left hand corner mean

    Do you mean on a thumbnail in the organizer?That means that organizer has lost track of the original file. Usually that happens when you've done something with the photo outside of organizer, like moved it or deleted the original. If you want organizer to be able to keep track of your photos, you need to do all moving and deleting from within the organizer, not in Windows Explorer or the Mac Finder.

  • My iphone 5 has the word searching in the upper left hand corner for 3 days. I can connect to the net , but no phone service. What is possibly wrong?

    WHy cant i get phone service? The word " searching " has been in the upper left hand corner for 3 days. I have internet service but no phone service. Does any one have any thoughts or suggestions?

    When you say you have Internet service, are you connected to wifi? Have you tried a reset on the phone? Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo, then release. The phone will reboot. After it starts, see what happens. Do you have a valid SIM in the phone, one that is activated through a carrier? Have you contacted the carrier to see what they say, since phone service is a carrier responsibility?

    Question. I have elements 10 My photos have a question mark in the upper left hand corner of the photo. Why? What do i do to get rid of it?

  • I lost that orange rectangular Firefox button that used to be in the upper left hand corner of my screen? How do I get it back?

    What else can I say? I used to have an orange rectangular box or button with Firefox on it, in the upper left hand corner of my screen. When I clicked on it a drop down pad appeared. IT'S GONE!

    Right click menu bar, untick "menu bar" in the options that you see.

  • My Firefox drop down box located in the upper left hand corner is no longer there. How do I get it back

    The only thing that appears above is the URL and the tabs that have been open. I have no other bars across the top of the screen. I especially need the Firefox Box in the left hand corner which includes commands to print, commands to bookmark a page, commands to clear History.

    Hi,
    Enabling / disabling the '''Menu Bar''' via '''View''' ('''Alt '''+ '''V''') > '''Toolbars''' alternates between the Firefox drop down box and the menu bar. To temporarily view the menu bar after the Firefox drop down box is activated, press '''Alt''' or '''F10'''.

  • Why can't I open pdf file?  Get a black box with a white x in the upper left hand corner that won't

    Why can't I open pdf file?  Get a black box with a white x in the upper left hand corner that won't open either

    I get the same thing... no matter what site i try to pull a pdf for IE10, it gives me the black x... if i use chrome it works, but my client does not want to use a different browser.
    I followed the guide that Pat posted... nothing worked... I have uninstalled and reinstalled Java, Adobe reader, Adobe flash,.. upgraded to IE11, then back to IE10 due to medical software that is not compatable with IE11...
    The kicker is that my Admin profile works just fine.. no issues.. so i know it has something to do with his profile....
    Please.. someone... help!!!

  • I'm having trouble formatting a book I'm writing using Pages. I need to put my name and book title in the upper left hand corner of EACH page- opposite the page number. How do I do this?

    I'm having trouble formatting a book I'm writing using Pages. I need to put my name and book title in the upper left hand corner of EACH page- opposite the page number. How do I do this?

    And if this is the new IOS Pages v2 (or the older IOS Pages 1.7.2), you click the wrench icon and then Document Setup. Tap the document header to edit it, and apply the same instructions that I gave previously for OS X Pages v5.
    The process for Pages ’09 v4.3 is slightly different. You click the Header, and enter your document title and your name as previously described. You will need Menu > View > Show Ruler. Click once in the ruler at the first or second mark after the 7 inch (roughly 18cm). This will set a tab. Now position the insertion mark behind your title and tab once to the mark you set. Now you can Menu > Insert > Auto Page Numbers ...

  • I seem to have lost the red, yellow and green dots that are in the upper left hand corner that close  or minimize the page.

    I seem to have lost the red, green, and yellow dots that are in the upper left hand corner that close or minimize the page.  How can I get them back?

    You may have to try a general OS X troubleshooting process to see if the issue goes away by doing this...
    Have you tried: starting the computer in SafeBoot mode, with shift key held down; a login screen should appear after a time, and then the regular desktop. At this point, locate Disk Utility in utilities folder, and run 'repair disk permissions' on the startup volume, usually the name given the hard disk drive as it appears on desktop. After Disk Utility is finished the permissions repair, restart the computer normally.
    ...The iTunes player has free support only through the duration of the hardware product's complementary or AppleCare extended plan coverages, so though you can download a newer version, that is not the same as free support for an issue. However, the iTunes Store or App Store has a different factor for their product.
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/
    There is an iTunes area in Apple Support Community discussions for more topics like this; except for when they involve a hardware product where an OS X is involved. If your computer is NOT a powerPC (an 'intel'-mac) the topic would more naturally need to be posted where that hardware and later supported OS X version topics get seen. So that is why one asks 'on what Mac running what version...' instead of writing four paragraphs in a wide angle reply. The details about your iMac and the OS X say more; without them, more questions arise.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • All of a sudden my bookmarks are gone, and I don't have the little firefox in my upper left hand corner

  • How to put a text in upper left hand corner for all the application?

    I want to put a text in upper left hand corner for all the pages on application?
    I don't want to put one page by another.
    Thank you.

    If you put it in a region on page zero, it will be inherited by all pages of the application.. Literally in the upper left corner? Even the login page? You could also modify the template page that your using from your theme, so that all pages would have this attribute, whichever you are more comfortable with..
    Thank you,

  • Why is it that I downloaded Firefox 4.0 but I do not have the orange firefox box in the upper left hand corner of screen. My screen still looks like the old verison of firefox. My screen does not look like the one in the video. looks nothing like the one

    My Firefox 4.0 does not look anything like the videos you show about the features of the new Firefox. My screen looks totally different than yours. It does not have the orange box in the upper left hand corner of the screen. My screen still looks like the old version. I have the logo on the top of my screen with Ask a Question a vertical line Firefox Help - Mozilla Firefox.
    Under this line I have File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. Below this line is a tab with Ask a Question Firefox Help and a +. My husbands screen looks identical to the orange Firefox Box in the upper left of screen. I would like my screen to look identical to the ones shown in your videos. I only have one version of Firefox 4.0 my husband does have the Firefox 4.0 plus the Beta version. How do I add the Beta version? I have Windows Vista running systems. Please help. Thank you

  • The flash player only shows a tiny portion of a video in the upper left hand corner of the window

    Why is the player window not displaying the video thru the whole open flash window and only uses a tiny portion in upper left hand corner to play the downloaded video??

    Hi, you can go to youtube and as soon as the video starts to play, right click and then uncheck the hardware acceleration on the Display Setting. Also being recommended is to update your grapic and video drivers to the latest version.
    This has helped other users experiencing this problem.
    Thanks,
