new window tab doesn't appear
A tab will sometimes disappear while the tab bar remains. This happens sometimes and is somewhat unpredictable. One part that is predictable is when I have multiple tabs on one window, then drag one of the tabs off that window. That tab becomes it's own new window. But the new window has no tabs. See a screenshot here: http://www.legendsrpg.com/funkyfirefox.JPG It's particularly annoying when I then make a new tab on the new window, and only that new tab is present. The only way to tab back to the first tab is to close all the other tabs on that window. To answer your usual questions: -I have tried disabling all plugins, then restarted Firefox, and I can recreate the scenario described above. -I do have "Always show the tab bar" checked -This started when I recently updated Firefox
Oh, here's one of the unpredictable times. I had this window open, I opened a new tab in it (everything looked normal), I dragged the new tab off the window, the new tab in the new window disappeared (it's the window in the screen shot). I then disabled the plugins, restarted, and now this window has lost it's tab, just like the other one.
Any solutions? Thanks

I've seen such issues also happen with new windows.
Current Firefox version only show the list all tabs button on the Tab bar if there are sufficient tabs open to make the scroll buttons appear, so that button can't be used.
You should be able to use the keyboard navigation keys command + 1 to 8 to access the first 8 tabs.
so I opened a window so this would happen, then created a new tab and pressed command-1 and it switched back to the first tab. It sounds like that shows firefox knows the tab is there, but it isn't displaying in the tab bar...
