This is usually due to Windows ClearType not being turned on. # In Windows, click [[Image:Small Vista Logo]] and type ''cleartype'' in the search box. #Click {menu Adjust ClearType text} to open the ClearType control panel. #Check '''Turn on ClearType''' and then {button Next} to fine tune your settings. #After you fine tune the ClearType settings, click {button Finish} to accept them. For more details see, [[Fonts look blurry]]. It's also possible that you are also experiencing issues related to outdated graphics card drivers. See [[How do I upgrade my graphics drivers?]] for more information, including how to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox as a possible workaround. {/for} =Some of my add-ons were disabled. What can I do?= {for =fx4, =fx5, =fx6, =fx7} After upgrading, Firefox checks for new versions of your add-ons and disables those that are no longer compatible. By default it will continue to check for new versions periodically. For more info about re-enabling add-ons, see [[Add-ons are disabled after updating Firefox]].<br> {for win}[[Image:Incompatible - Win]]{/for} {/for} {for fx8} When Firefox updates, it turns off add-ons that are not compatible with the new version. In addition, add-ons that may have been automatically installed by other programs without your knowledge (third party add-ons) have been disabled.

See [[Google Toolbar is not compatible with Firefox]] for information about accessing your Google bookmarks and add-ons that you might find helpful. =Where are my bookmarks?= Relax. If you were using the Bookmarks Toolbar to hold your favorite sites you may just have to turn it back on: *{for win,linux}Right-click{/for}{for mac}Control-click{/for} on an empty section of the Tab Strip and check {menu Bookmarks Toolbar} in the pop-up menu.<br>{for win}[[Image:Bookmarks Toolbar - Win]]{/for}{for mac}[[Image:Bookmarks Toolbar - Mac]]{/for} You can also view and organize your bookmarks in the Library window. *[[Template:OpenBookmarksLibrary]]<br>{for win}[[Image:Bookmarks Button win]]{/for} For more about using bookmarks, including tagging and organizing, see [[How do I use bookmarks?]] =Why are tabs on top of the location bar now?= The main reason is that it just makes more sense — especially with features like [[What are App Tabs?|App Tabs]] and the [[Customizing Firefox with add-ons|Add-ons Manager]]. For details on this change, see [[Why are tabs on top?]] ==How do I put tabs back like they used to be?== *{for win,linux}Right-click{/for}{for mac}Control-click{/for} on an empty section of the Tab Strip and uncheck {menu Tabs on Top} in the pop-up menu.<br>{for win}[[Image:Tabs on top - Win]]{/for}{for mac}[[Image:Tabs on top - Mac]]{/for} = Why does my home page say I need to update Firefox when I have the latest version?= Older versions of Firefox used www.google.com/firefox as the home page. If you are still using this page, you will see the message, "You're not on the latest version of Firefox. Upgrade today to get the best of the Web!" at the bottom of the page. You can fix this by restoring the default home page. See [[How to set the home page]] for instructions. [[Template:ShareArticle|link=http://mzl.la/MIMBUI]]
