Why all the close tab buttons are missing?

Yesterday, I was using Firefox 25.0.1 without any problem. Today, I launched Firefox, only to discover that the buttons [X] for the tabs have disappeared! Instead, I saw a single button [x] on the right side of the tab bar, that closes the active tab. There is no changes/updates I made to Firefox between yesterday and today. I checked the browser.tabs.closeButtons setting and seen that it is always set to 1. Change it has no effect. What is going on?
Thank you

I have this same problem. Firefox 25.0.1 worked well, with tabs as usual, until a few hours ago, when they simply disappeared. As the OP, I have the "Hide Tab Bar with a tab" extension. I disabled it and the ' x was immediately visible once again, so there must be something with the extension itself which causes make them disappear.

The developer of this extension says that the next update should take care of it, and it should be in the next few hours or maybe a day. You can see this exchange here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/hide-tab-bar-with-one-tab/reviews/

  • 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".

  • New tab and close tab buttons are not enabled

    Firefox new tab page and close tab buttons are not neabled and do a right-click shows the same functions that is not available.

    Try Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there.

    A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 4.0 + by pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.

    Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.

    If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.

  • Why was the 'new tab' button option removed from research 'Customize toolbar '?

    Back in 3.x and more I was able to place a "open new window" button and a button "open new tab" in the bookmarks toolbar. This has worked well for me. Now with 4, the 'new tab' is not available, and you can open a new tab using the default button, right next to your already open tabs.

    Any chance of that open new tab button back? I would use rather than (what I'm used to) than new.

    Called options, remove them stop.

    You can find the button new tab showing as a '+' on the tab bar.

    You can open the Customize and drag the new tab, button of the toolbar tabs on another toolbar and it will become a regular tools like the new button bar button tab you have in versions of Firefox 3.

    If you would like the button tab at the right end of the tab bar then put a hose to the left of it.

    Open the Customize via "view > toolbars > customize" or "Firefox > Options > toolbars."

  • Distorted icons and buttons especially the new tab button

    Certain keys, such as the new tab button are distorted. It was the series of changes after what I noticed this (initially I was using firefox 41 on system from 21 to 64-bit fedora with XFCE desktop environment):

    -Upgrade fedora at 22

    -Installed LXDE desktop (with XFCE)

    -Theme installed atolm (http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Atolm?content=136789). Just extract the contents of the archive in ~/.themes

    -past to this theme

    -used the rodent icon theme (XFCE)

    Up to this point, that I had not opened firefox and so I do not know when this problem occurred. I decided to remove LXDE and switch back to XFCE. I thought that this distortion of the icons happened probably because of an incompatible Openbox desktop configuration. This problem persists in the XFCE desktop environment too. I tried changing themes to see if a bug with the theme is causing these things, but remained it. I reinstalled firefox but the problem still persists. There is no option in the Customize menu to solve this problem. In addition, firefox menus do not use the gtk theme.

    I have updated my firefox in another system and installed fedora-21 the same theme gtk and this one is very good. The menus are in accordance with the gtk-theme and the icons are not distorted.

    @cor-el

    I tried with the theme by default too. Did not work. I changed the icon theme and rebooted. The distorted icons disappeared!

    This seems to be a problem with the rodent icon theme.

  • How to move the 'new tab' button on one side of the screen to the other

    A settings file had somehow end up corrupt and have reconstitute default Firefox and start over with my custom toolbars. Only problem, is that the 'New tab' button wants to ONLY go to the LEFT of the tab bar. Will not be on the side RIGHT of it as it was before default. Want this back. Someone knows how to put this topic: config or what? I continue to seek my new tab on the right button and get irritated that it is on the left instead. Customize the will, not that it is placed on the right. Dragging it puts it on another toolbar, it falls on the left of the screen when you mouse on the right, or does nothing and quite the icon disappear toward the window customize.

    Well... scrap that...

    Make a toolbar missing and decided to add a few "separators" at the tab bar and all of a sudden he allows her to stay on the right side. Just carried away the separators and it actually moved where I wanted him to be. If I thought who could more quickly, have saved post here. At least it works now so do not bother it. * shrug *.
