Isisombululo esikhethiwe

Hit the Alt key to show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar and Navigation toolbar, so they have a check-mark.

I checked & all three toolbars were ticked. Unticked & reticked & restarted FF. No change. I do not know where my dashboard is located. I have seen it previously but do not know where. It is hard to say it does not exist if I do not know where to look. Only been using FF 4 days. Where does one normally view "my dashboard"?? Thanks.

That is not called the "dashboard". Each toolbar can be shown separately, as shown here. Menu Bar, Navigation Toolbarbar, and Bookmarks Toolbar

Firefox 4.0 versions have a new "Firefox button" which allows to user to hide the Menu Bar, and if that is showing you can have the Menu Bar appear temporarily by hitting the Alt key. Then you can click on the View menu item and open Toolbars.

If that doesn't solve your issue, try the Firefox SafeMode - you may have an addon that is causing your problem.
