My pulldown menus and bookmarks have disappeared. How do I get them back?
Today, without doing anything to the browser, Firefox's pulldown menus and my bookmarks have all disappeared and I can't figure out how to get them back. I still have the icons for the basic tools, like the home page, but all the regular pulldowns, which I use frequently, are gone. Any ideas?
I have already downloaded the newest version of Firefox to see if this would work and it did not. Anybody?

For details of how to restore the menu bar, see menu bar is missing. This article shows how to bring back the menu bar and other missing toolbars such as the bookmarks toolbar. If the bookmarks themselves have gone, see lost bookmarks.

Thank you! This worked perfectly. What a relief.
If ALL your menus have disappeared, press F11 (you may have to hit the Fn key simultaneously). If only one or two of the menu bars have disappeared, hit F10 (again, Fn key may also be needed, depending on your settings). This will bring the menu bars back temporarily--until you click on something else on the screen. While they are showing, hit View/Toolbars and check whichever menu bars you wish to appear. Unless you have a deeper issue, this should fix the problem.
Thank you for the link... the alt key was the trick I needed to get my menu bar to show back up and then I simply checked it to always be there, My life is good again :-)
