After updating from v28 to v29.0.1 I was able to set Firefox back to the way I had it configured except for a few minor things. One thing that I used a lot was the orange Firefox button with the drop down in the upper left. I thought that this might have been removed from v29 but when I accessed the help, (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tabs-organize-websites-single-window) it clearly showed the orange drop down menu. Has this been added back in v30? The menu with the 3 horizontal lines on the top right in v29 does not contain all the items that are in the orange Firefox menu.

One more thing with Firefox is when will it be compatable with the Acrobat Pro 9 plug-in the is installed into Internet Explorer 8 that gives you the 'Convert to PDF' and other pdf functionality?

Thanks

In current Firefox releases (29 and later), that have have the Australis user interface, the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three-bar Firefox Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar and this button is always visible, whether you have the menu bar visible or hidden
A consequence of this location is that you no longer can hide the Navigation Toolbar

  • There is a star like button next to the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu.
    You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at the bottom of this drop-down list
  • If you bookmark a page then "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu changes to "Edit This Bookmark"
  • You can make the title bar visible via the "Title Bar" button at the bottom left in the Customize palette window

It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu of a toolbar to have menus like the File menu with Print (Ctrl+P) and Print Preview and the Bookmarks menu available.

You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.

  • You can check out the settings of the CTR extension via its Options/Preferences button on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" page.
  • You can find extra toolbar buttons and more toolbar settings in Customize (3-bar Firefox menu button > Customize)
