How do I get the Adobe PDF navigation bar to automatically appear at the top of my screen again instead of when I move my mouse?
Before I upgraded my computer to Windows 7 and updated Firefox to the latest version, when I opened a PDF document online, the PDF navigation/menu bar would automatically appear at the top of the screen. Now it only appears at the bottom in a blue bar when I move my mouse around.

cor-el, thanks for the tip. While I certainly scoured Adobe's preference settings to look for something relating to that exact thing, I never went to their help site until I got your post. I found out that the floating toolbar appears because the PDF opens in Read Mode, which you can turn off for all future documents by doing this:
- Quit your internet browser
- Launch Acrobat (or Reader)
- Choose Edit>Preferences
- Click on the Internet category on the left
- Deselect “Display in Read Mode by default”
- Click the OK button.
- Relaunch Acrobat
Something important to note, if you have both Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader, you need to do the above in both programs (same steps).

Hi agraham,
Thanks, but this does not solve the problem. I am trying to get the PDF toolbar to stay docked at the top by default (see image).
Did you check the Adobe Reader Preferences to see if there is a setting to choose between a floating bar and the classic toolbar at the top?
