If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.

Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"

  • If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
  • If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
  • If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

I am not very computer oriented, but I did get the back and forward arrows to appear again---by trial and error with your instructions. Thank you. A lot of my problems stem from my lack of knowledge of the terminology. For instance, what is the very top bar called with-----file, edit,view,history,tools and help? I use to have FAVORITES in this bar, but that disappeared. How do I get this back on that bar?
