Chosen solution

You mean that the navigation toolbar is gone? Are you in full screen mode? If so, hold down Command+Shift and press F. If not, pull down the View menu, choose Toolbars, and click on Navigation Toolbar to check it. If that does not make the navigation toolbar appear, it may be that localstore.rdf in the profile has gotten damaged. The easy way to find the profile is to pull down the Help menu and choose Troubleshooting Information, then click the Profile Directory - Show in Finder button. Shut down Firefox, move the localstore.rdf file onto the desktop and restart Firefox. If that restores the navigation toolbar, you will have to redo customizations made to toolbars and resize windows back to preferred sizes. If not, you can put the localstore file back into the profile.
