When FF opens the top bar with: File, Edit,... and the bar below for tabs and icons, BUT, no browser address bar come up. I cant type and/or paste web-address/URLs, as the address bar stays either hidden or is MIA. What are the steps to activate "UN-HIDE" this tool? Josef

View > Toolbars > (checkmark on) Navigation Bar,

you can unhide the bookmarks toolbar in the same manner.

BTW, you can specifically see and use the Location bar (usually on the Navigation bar) by using "Ctrl+L" which put the cursor there ready to replace whatever is there. You can also use the "Alt" key to temporarily show the toolbars.
