Close tab icon missing
Normally, each tab has an 'x' to close each tab - it is missing and I have to left click and close the tab - suggestions appreciated.
Thank you
How many legs were open?
If there is a lot of tabs open only the active tab has a close button.
Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).
- Makes no changes on the start safe mode window.

Firefox 4 the "Close tab" button is missing from the "File" menu drop-down
In Firefox 4, the "Close tab" button appears not in the "file" pull down.
This button appears in Firefox 3.6.16 but is now gone.
I need when I have two windows open, each with one tab open and I want to close a window.
The only option presented to me is "Quit", that closes both windows...
It would be good [if they insist on the order being missing] to have SOMETHING beyond the CTRL-W command [which fortunately works again]. I thought it was a windows application and not BACK. I hope that the command is available in a menu drop down, especially because it has a long history of existence in a rational place.
It will be interesting justify how to remove a menu command dropdown is somehow "better".

All my tabs are missing! Rename and copy/paste the files did not help
I accidentally opened two windows of Firefox and closed one with all my tabs pinned first, then the second tab. After Firefox reload all my tabs are missing and I tried to rename files, copy and paste files, etc. as suggests these forums, but nothing has worked. I have myself screwed on?
Check first the Menu history for any tab restore options.
In the second place.
If you have already restarted Firefox and have a copy of the files: close Firefox- Open the profile folder profiles - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data
- Save the previous.js recovery.bak and recovery.js under another name
- Place the recovery files in the profile folder.
So that this does not happen again change your tab Preferences and settings or try Session Manager add and save your profile.

Menu from the top (minimize/maximize/close buttons) is missing
In the view of the main Thunderbird Inbox, all above the tabs is missing. It is transparent, but the area is still part of the Thunderbird window and clicking it keeps the focus in this window. I'm under 24.3.0. I met two possible fixes for this (was related to themes, but I use the original theme, the other was to hit toggle full screen - in my case, F11 appears to be disabled or broken), but have not been able to solve the problem. I'm running Windows 7 Pro SP1, x 64
For anyone else knows this bug (Matt, it's a bug - almost all Windows apps should have at least a red 'X' button close and Thunderbird is without expection), the problem was solved when I updated to 24.4.0 (Win 7 SP1)
Thank you for taking the time to respond, guigs2 and Matt.
Note that a very similar question is continued here:

Why the new tab icon keep disappearing once I closed everything except a tab?
The new tab icon appears to the left of my tabs, but as soon as I close all tabs in the browser until there is just one left, the new tab button disappears. I tried to reset the default customization and add a new tab button but no work. After that I opened a new tab (via CTRL + T) icon reappears?
in this case, you can either reset your old profile (which will keep your bookmarks and passwords) or hover over the most important personal data from your old profile to that newly created: recovery of data from an old profile

When I open a tab/icon on my computer is much too large for my screen and I can't use my computer; 3 boxes at the top right corner with the-, square and X are too far to the right to do anything. How can I fit on my screen, so I can use my computer?
Hello
Please contact Microsoft Community.
This problem is limited to any icon or it happens with all?
Did you change to the computer?
I suggest to refer to the following methods and check to see if it helps:
Method 1:
Install the latest display driver and check
Uninstall the driver from Device Manager display.
a. close all programs. This will ensure that the programs do not interfere with the update of the driver.
b. right-click on my computer, and then click Properties. This will bring you from the System Properties menu.c. click Device Manager
d. expand the display column of cards by clicking on them. This will show the graphical current map that is using your computer.
e. right click on the adapter, then select Properties.
f. click on the driver tab. This tab displays information about the current driver, as well as options to update, delete, uninstall, and back the driver.
g. click on uninstall
h. restart the computerYou can install the latest display driver for download on the site of computer manufacturing, same driver will reinstall automatically after the restart, if the computer is connected to the Internet.
Method 2:
I suggest you try the system restore. Restore the system to a restore point when your computer was working fine
You can also check the Device Manager to see if the video card has a yellow exclamation on it with an error any:

I hope this helps.

FF42 - View Page Info - Media tab is missing
I used right click and View Page Info - Media inside tab - to see pictures, backgrounds, and other media on a specific page. Now after the upgrade to FF42, this tab is missing, the only other three tabs are always available.
It seems that there is a problem with the all-in - One Sidebar extension. There are discussions here:

Y at - it a shortcut to 'return' or 'close tab', according to?
When you browse a topic, I often Google it, then command-click on the links to open them in new tabs. While they are loading, I can continue browsing the Google page for more links.
Then, when I start to visit the newly created tabs, I click on links in them, sometimes with and sometimes without, command. This generates a tree of Web pages, some on a tab and some different tabs, but all on the same subject.
When I want to cut a branch of the tree, I can use the shortcut "command-[]" (back), if the arrow is dark, or "command-W" (Close Tab) if the arrow is gray. Very practical, but there may be a change that would make it even more manageable...
Is there a single shortcut which will do either, depending on the darkness of the arrow?
I went through the documentation and it's probably not there. But I found a few things that do not exist (command - click here to open a link in a new tab and in the background is very convenient), so I thought I'd ask.
-Gil
I'm not aware of an extension to get this behavior.
You can open all links in a new tab.
Then you just close the tabs and do not use the back button.You can open links in a new window.
Then the closure of the last tab in a window closes this window if you have not changed this setting. -
Undo Close tab does not work in windows 7 for firefox latest version 29,0
You can do this via CTRL + SHIFT + T as well.
You can try to start Firefox in Mode safe to see if Firefox works correctly without error? You can start Firefox in Mode safe below:
- Windows/Mac: choose Help > restart with disabled modules
- Linux: run firefox-safe-mode in the Terminal/Konsole
If Firefox opens fine with no problems, it is probably one of your extensions that is causing the problem. You can reactivate your modules one by one until you find the one that is causing the problem to be re-activated.

My new tab icon does not work anymore, how can I solve this problem?
When I click on my new tab icon nothing happens. It started recently. I rebooted my machine and Firefox restarted all to nothing will do.
Or not work Ctrl + T, or the new tab menu item. I hate having to go through Internet Explore. Help, please. Thank you.
Could you try Mode without failure of Firefox? It is a standard diagnostic tool in order to avoid interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.
You can restart Firefox in Mode safe help
Help > restart with disabled modules
In the dialog box, click on 'Start mode safe' (not Reset)
Any difference?

12 Firefox just installed on MacBook Pro, OS x 106.8. FF looks great, seems faster too. BUT on the tab menu, the small triangle (to list the information on the tab) is missing; I can't find a way to reinstall using view-> toolbars-> Customize option. Can you help me?
You will see only the "List all tabs" button in Firefox 12 + if it has that many tabs open you get the scroll bar tab buttons appearing.

Cannot close tab groups. Close button fails even with an empty window.
When I create groups of tabs, I can't close. The red X close tab group button does not work. I can resize, add or remove sites, or even remove all sites. But I can't get the button close the tab of the function group.
Thanks for the tips. I traced the problem to theme Noia 4 v 1.6.7. I don't know how to advise developer or where else to post this information. But in any case, I will delete it.
