When I open Firefox start up page....I get the Firefox/Google Search page at start up. In the past there was a field at the top of the page that allowed me to type a URL address. This field no longer appears at the top of the start up page so I have no way of typing a specific URL address that I want to go to.

Can you please tell what I can do to have this field appear at the top of my start up page?

It sounds like either the navigation toolbar is hidden or the location bar has been removed from the navigation toolbar. For details on fixing that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Back+and+forward+or+other+toolbar+items+are+missing
