Can someone help me with Firefox browser problem?

UndisputedChamp · 08-May-06, 10:18 PM

I'm sure one of you pimps can help me out. For some reason whenever I use my Firefox, I don't have the traditional address bar on top and the back and forward buttons. I'm not sure what happened; the address bar and the back and forward buttons don't even show up. Everytime I reset the computer or exit out the Firebox browser and then I open up a new window, I still don't see the address bar and the back and forward buttons.

Can anyone help me out?
Thanks for reading this post and thanks for the help.

Try hitting F11. Or if that doesn't work go to view toolbars and check them.

yea...or just right click up in that top area and hit navigation toolbar

on the subject of firefox, I have an query, see if anyone knows how to sort it out: I would love to get Windows Media player to have 200% zoom on all the time, any ideas how to do this?

Hey thanks guys for the replies. I tried hitting F11, but that only makes the page blowup more. I tried fooling around in the Cutomize section, but still no luck. I tried spacing in customize, etc. but I still see no address bar. I can't type in the name for a website; anyone have any other suggestions?

Oh and Haier I'm not sure how to get to 200% on all time. Usually clicking on the video for me (while using Firefox) gets it bigger.

Not sure if you want to do this but it would be a quick fix. Uninstall firefox then reinstall it. It should use the default settings on the new install.

Pffft Firefox...

Hate to say it, but even the Beta 2 release of IE7 is much nicer. Plus it doesn't just randomly decided to loose all your bookmarks whenever it feels like it...

Wow WDog, I was thinking just that. Going to have to go through the painstaking process of deleting FireFox and reinstalling it, but anything for my default settings

. On it right now.

The freakin' beta release of IE7 looks AMAZING. When you minimize a page and you point the mouse to the minimized window, you get to see a small miniaturized version of that page. SO you don't have to click on every minimized window to see which page you were browsing, but instead point your mouse arrow thing on the minimized window, and boom the page shows up. That's ingenious.

I like firefox, its setup is better i think than IE. I havnt seen anything for the new IE so I don't really have an opinion about it. Now seeing that I can pick up a beta I might check it out.
Ive never had firefox delete my bookmarks BUT I have had compatability issues with java scrips and movies in browsers before resulting in firefox error and closing all firefox windows. arg. OTHER than that im happy with it.

Champ let us know if that worked.

Freaken English men

I actually found the soultion to that. Let firefox crash, and it will never crash again.

have you tried checking to see if the address bar is actually there just being pushed off to the side by whatever bar has decided to take over the browser bar space. could be just stuck on the edge of the screen.
