Why isn't my menu and toolbar working in Mozilla Firefor 7?
My drop down menu that has File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Yahoo, Tools, and Help isn't working, i can't even print from this browser. The toolbar that comes with the installation of mozilla firefox isn't working either.
Chosen solution
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

In Firefox 4 and later Safe mode disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.
- Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

YES!! Thank you, it is working now. However, my bookmarks still aren't, the bookmarks only work if i right click on the mouse button and choose the "open in a new window" option, would you know how to solve that problem? Thank you so very much for your help.
A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
You are AMAZING!!! Thank you so much, all of your suggestions worked!! I now have everything back working as it should. Well, except for one thing, i used to be able to open up pandora in firefox but now its saying something about installing newer version of flash player, which i did, but pandora still isn't working. However, pandora will work in IE.
You're welcome

There may be other plugins interfering.
You can try a test and only leave the flash plugin enabled to see if that works.
Ah, i got it, flash player plug-in wasn't enabled. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I was so frustrated because everything wasn't working properly, its back in action now!! Thanks!!!!!
