The Firefox idon on the top left does not contain any of the items the instructions say to use to manage settings. Where are they?

more options

The firefox icon button on the top left has a drop down menu that contains only "restore", "minimize", maximize and close. There are the other items needed to manage settings and controls?

You need to look for a button that actually says Firefox

If you do not have that you will probably have the file menu toolbar displaying instead.

more options

Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible.

  • Firefox menu button > Options
  • View > Toolbars (press F10 to display the menu bar)
  • Right-click empty toolbar area

Use Toolbar Layout (Customize) to open the Customize window and set which toolbar items to display.

  • check that "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
  • if "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette into the Customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
  • if missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
  • if you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar setup

You can check for problems caused by a corrupted localstore.rdf file if the above didn't help.

I think that you are pushing the wrong button.

Are you trying to click screenshot number 1 or 2?
