After upgrading to 9.0.1, I now have space at the top of my screen -- whole page used to be filled, with tabs at top. How to get back to how it was before.

My screen saver shows for a few inches in back of the on-line application I'm in now, after upgrading to 9.0.1. How do I get its appearance back to how it was before? My tabs are at the top, which they were before. But this 2 inch space at the top is distracting.

Check that that space is coming from a toolbar that doesn't display properly.
