I don't see the cogwheel icon after opening Firefox--how can I get it?
I have a new computer and I have installed Firefox, but I don't see the cogwheel icon. Can anyone tell me how to find/retrieve it? Thanks!

The icon for Firefox's Options page?
It's usually on the application menu, the one that drops down when you click the "3-bar" menu button. If it's not there, a couple things to try:
(1) Tap the Alt key to activate the menu bar, then
Tools > Options
(2) Type or paste about:preferences in the address bar and press Enter
(3) Try the Customize feature to put the wheel icon where you want it. See: Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars
