Just follow these steps:
1. Go to: Firefox > Look at the 'Options' drop-down menu (not the actual options menu)
2. You will see an option called 'Menu Bar', tick this option
3. The normal menu bar should now return
If you ever want to get back the 'Firefox' button:
1. Go to: View > Toolbars
2. Untick the 'Menu Bar' option
By the way if you have the 'Firefox' button and want to view the normal menu briefly, just press F10 in Firefox
If this was the answer you were looking for, please click 'Solved' -- Thanks.
I did that (I think I did) however the confusion is that I get only part of the menu and not the most important menu items like "file" "edit" etc. with all the drop downs. It is so freaky - my other computers have no problem like this and I and show the menu bar or not just like you described. I really doubt anyone really understands my problem with it. I took some screen shots of the good computer version and the bad one so someone can "see" exactly what I am seeing. This may be a one of a kind gremlin issue, LOL. Anyway, without those menu items, I am very limited on the usefulness of FireFox on that computer so I have to rely more on Chrome for those features and use the FireFox with Billeo and other tools that still work. Someday it may magically fix itself, LOL. Of the two images, one is the good computer and the other is the bad. The bad one shows the only way to see the menu items however they disappear after I am done with the custom menu and no other time can I get the items to "appear" it is like they are there but cannot get them to show when in the normal menu bar mode.
you say "1. Go to: Firefox > Look at the 'Options' drop-down menu (not the actual options menu)" but there is no such 'Options" drop down menu available on my unit - that is why I am asking for help so I can get those useful menu items to show up. The tabs show up when I have the menu bar activated but no items other than the tabs and not much else. Those items used to be at the very top of the browser window and I recall that I could move them to other places at the top or near the top of the browser among the other "bars". I will go in and look at it again but I recall looking at all the so called options to find nothing that would bring those items back. I will plan to restart the computer too. Pray for magic!!! LOL.
Well I tried. No such options on that S3 Computer (that is its name) everything works fine on the S0 computer. You see the Tools and other items at the top on it and most instructions address turning on and off the menu totally or should I say convert what show as a bar to a "FireFox" button that looks like a tab at the top of the window which allow drop down and switching back to the bar type menu with all the goodies. The two views of what I see are attached here. When I drop down from the FireFox Tab, nothing their allows me to get to items like "File" or "Tool" among other menu items. What a quirk of a situation.
- Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions 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.
- https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode

Please tell me more. If I do not make changes, what good does it do? I will try it but this is making me a bit insane, LOL.
If you do not make changes the first time you use Safe mode then nothing can go wrong if it isn't caused by an extension.
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
- Use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
- Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
I am not at that computer now but I will plan on trying that to see if it solves the problem with that computer & FireFox. Not sure till I somehow open it in Safe Mode what I will run into or be able to access those controls since most of the link steps are missing in the regular (non-safe mode) version that is running on that computer. Thanks for your patience and tenacity!!!
I also had this problem after installing Yahoo Messenger. I uninstalled yahoo toolbar from the windows control panel but still had the problem. What fixed it for me was going to, in Firefox, Tools/Add-ons and selecting the Yahoo Toolbar to uninstall. This cleared the Yahoo off of the File, Edit row.
