I'm using version 21.0. The new tab button does show up in the Bookmarks Toolbar, but not with the open tabs. Why?

Chosen solution

Use Toolbar Layout (Customize) to open the Customize window and set which toolbar items to display.

  • Firefox menu button > Options > Toolbar Layout
  • View > Toolbars > Customize
  • if missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
  • if you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar setup

You can check for problems caused by a corrupted localstore.rdf file if the above didn't help.
