There is no location bar to type in web addresses on any firefox screen. I cannot use the web unless the address is in my bookmarks or I go to google with the website and then choose the website from there.

Hi pkeoughan,

It sounds like the navigation bar was just accidentally turned off. Don't worry, it's an easy fix. Take a look at Navigation buttons like back, home, bookmarks and reload are missing for details. You can also go to View > Toolbars and enable the Navigation tollbar and the Bookmarks toolbar.

Hopefully this helps!
