It seems that I have erased the address bar and can only access firefox thru google. I am using a mac. How do I get it back?
there is an icon in the upper right corner that closes or opens a portion of the top of the page, and I accidentally clicked it, and the address bar was gone. Now I can not open the home page and type where I want to go.

Perhaps the icon is the Full Screen icon, didn't even know there was one. You can use "F11" to toggle in or out of "Full Screen" mode. In full screen mode the Firefox window fills the entire screen, and toolbars typically do not display at all.
If toolbars are showing but not the navigation bar use "Alt" then View > Toolbars > make sure Navigation bar is check marked, and you can show your other toolbars as well.
If the Navigation bar is displayed but it lacks the location bar look for it at "Alt" then View > Toolbars > Customize and drag "Location bar" to the navigation bar.
You can make Firefox 7.0.1 look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6). Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.
