Why is my address bar suddenly taking up twice as much height on my screen? How do I fix this?I

I need more window space........not less!

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

  • Why is my address bar in v 31.0 suddenly taking up twice as much height on my screen? How do I fix this?

    I try to keep toolbar space to a minimum, so I have some screen left over to see what I want to see. This impedes my ability to accomplish that!

    Sorry, I didn't realize you already have a thread going here: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1014584

  • Whenever I press F11 or click fullscreen, my address bar and tabs don't collapse as they normally do. How do I fix this?

    I recently hooked up another monitor to my laptop, which was when the problem occurred, but even after I restarted Firefox *and* my computer, it still didn't work. By collapsing, I mean when you press F11, the the open tabs and address bar appear smaller, and then they slide upwards until you can't see it (unless you mouse over it). Please help me fix this =)
    Thanks!

    Hi rattailjimmy
    So you see the toolbars in full screen mode (F11) and can't hide them to make them only appear if you hover the mouse to the top of the screen?

    You can check for problems with preferences and try to rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default values.

  • I am not able to access website if i type them into the address bar or try to access them through the history list. How can I fix this?

    The only way I can access webpages is if I search for them with search bar.

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • When I search using my address bar it comes up and say page not found jar file, how do I fix this?

    File not found
    Firefox can't find the file at jar:file:///C:/Program Files (x86)/Mozilla Firefox/omni.jar!/chrome/en-US/locale/browser-region
    Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
    Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.

    hello Kygirl, please install the search reset addon - it will revert the most common customziations those adware programs do in firefox back to the default (including the keyword search from the location bar): https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

    When trying to stream video I am getting this error message "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (st) isn't associated with any program." How do I fix this?

    Protocol error usually indicates that the very leftmost part of the URL is not recognized.
    So http://, ftp://, rtsp://, usually work.
    ableton:// would need to be added by some software somewhere...
    Can you get instructions from the vendor? Does these posts seem relevant:

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

  • Since adding Yosemite, my bookmarks bar shows bookmarks from a different computer (my work computer). How do I fix this?

    I just upgraded to Yosemite, and now I see that my bookmarks bar in Safari has all of the content from my work computer. Same with my reading list. Eeek! I want to keep these separate.  How do I fix this?

    Hi ..
    It sounds like the Mac that's just been upgraded to Yosemite has Safari enabled in iCloud to sync bookmarks and the reading list.
    Open System Preferences > iCloud then deselect:  Safari

  • Can't open any links within my emails. The display reads, "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (blockedhttp) isn't associated with any program." How can I fix this?

    Can't open any links within the emails using Firefox. I can open them in other browsers however. The message reads, "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (blockedhttp) isn't associated with any program.". How can I fix this?

    Looks like blocking software to purposely block a page by messing with the url.

  • Did reset, but now I have no bar on top with File, bookmarks etc. no printer icon. How do I fix this?

    Did a reset to fix my problem with Firefox but now I have no bar on top with file, bookmarks, tools etc. Firefox created an old Firefox data folder on my desktop. Not computer savvy...how can I fix this problem?

    hello Elainef, if you are missing toolbar buttons you can go into firefox customization mode and place them where you'd like to have them. in there it's also possible to enable/disable toolbars like the menu bar:

  • When typing in a search in the address bar i get redirected to a search assist by Teoma. How can i stop this

    Normally when i type a subject into the address bar i get sent to a website that deals with that subject. For example if i typed in "Iron Man" in the address bar then i would be sent to a movie website with iron man details. Now when i type in a subject on the address bar i get redirected to a search assist website powered by Teoma. I haven't changed my default search and I've never even heard of Teoma so I really cant stand that i get redirected there. if i cant get rid of it then i am getting rid of firefox all together because that was the one feature that it had over internet explorer that really mattered to me. How do i change that

    I believe I've figured this out. You probably don't have a virus and there may not be much you can do. What is probably happening here is that the DNS provided by your ISP is trapping the request and redirecting you to the teoma server (run by ask.com).
    When you enter "flurdl" into the address bar, first the browser (& network stack) tries to resolve it as a host name into an ip address, by contacting the DNS server. If it resolves to an ip address, the connection proceeds. If DNS replies there is no such host, the browser passes it onto your search provider to perform a search.
    Your ISP has cut a deal with teoma such that when there is no host, instead of returning that, they return the teoma address. Your browser connects to that address and teoma returns its search page. So your browser never realizes it needs to search; it thinks it hit a valid page.
    Why do they do this? Because the search engine gets paid for the "preferred" entries in the search result.
    Your options are probably twofold: 1) don't search from the address bar, use the search bar instead. 2) Find another more honest DNS provider and configure it explicitly in your network settings.

    When I maximize the screen on my Mac Book Pro it hides the menu bar and the typed tool bar at the top of the screen as well.  How do I undo this?

  • When I search my business address in VZ Navigator, it sends me in the opposite direction. How do I fix this? My business address works on Google Maps and Google Earth but not on VZ Navigator

    VZ Navigator doesn't seem to have my business address in their system. How do I add it or fix it? Right now when I put the address in it takes me to a totally different part of the city.

        emy4,
    I'd definitely be concerned if my Navigator wasn't giving me the correct location! That needs to work great for you. I'm more than happy to assist you with this today! What phone do you have? Do any other nearby addresses have issues?
