husky princess Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Any ideas why or how the search bit (where you would type in a web address) would have disappeared? I can now only use the homepage & not access any other sites. (I'm putting this up by using my phone) thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

husky princess Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 No just the homepage (eBay) but the top task bar isn't included so I can't change it to another website. So basically it's just the lower bit of the page without the very top bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lebe03 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 The following may help: Menu bar is missing If the menu bar is missing, it is usually because it has been hidden (either by you, a Firefox extension or another program on your computer) or because the file storing your toolbar information has become corruptFirefox is in full screen mode or not the selected application. If other toolbars or buttons are missing, see Back and forward or other toolbar items are missing. Mac OS X If Firefox is in full screen mode, move the pointer to the top of the screen, and click on the Full Screen icon to restore the Firefox menu to normal size and show the menu bar. If Firefox is not in Full Screen mode, the menu bar will be visible. The menu bar always includes the Apple icon and the name of the current program. To see the Firefox menu bar, click inside any Firefox window. Hidden menu bar Firefox lets you hide the menu bar to give you more screen space. It's also possible that a Firefox extension or another program on your computer has hidden the menu bar. You can show it again using the mouse and keyboard. Press Alt on the keyboard and release. The menu bar will appear temporarily. On the menu bar, click View, go to Toolbars, then select which toolbars you want to see. Corrupt toolbars and controls If the file storing your toolbar information has become corrupt, use Firefox's Safe Mode to reset toolbars and controls. Press Alt on the keyboard and release so that the menu bar will appear temporarily and then follow these steps: Close down Firefox completely: At the top of the Firefox window, click the File menu, and select the Exit menu item.Close down Firefox completely: On the menu bar, click the Firefox menu, and select the Quit Firefox menu item.Close down Firefox completely: At the top of the Firefox window, click the File menu, and select the Quit menu item. In Windows, click Start, open the All Programs list, and navigate to the Mozilla Firefox folder. In the Mozilla Firefox folder, select Mozilla Firefox (Safe Mode).Hold down the option key, as you start Firefox.Go to your Terminal and run: firefox -safe-mode You may need to specify the Firefox installation path (e.g. /usr/lib/firefox-3.5). Firefox should start up with a Firefox Safe Mode dialog. Note: You can also start Firefox in Safe Mode by clicking Start, selecting Run (or use the Start Search box in Windows 7 and Vista) and then entering the following in the text field: firefox -safe-mode When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears: Check mark Reset toolbars and controls. Click Make Changes and Restart to restart Firefox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
