My naviagtion toolbar is visible, but is not bold, and does not work. Also, my History option is no longer working, but it is visible.
Firefox automatically updated yesterday, but when I logged on today to use the computer, my navigation toolbar was no longer operating. It is visible but it is in grey colour, and when I click on it, nothing happens. Also, since this update, my History option is no longer working. None of my history appears when I click on it. I never used to have any problems with either of these functions.

You can enable your Known & Trustworthy Add-ons and Themes later. Check and tell if its working.
I haven't been able to even start doing the above as there is no Restart with Add-ons Disabled under my Help Menu. I have had a read of the Uninstalling Add-ons on the Firefox Help page, but am not sure if this will do the same thing.
-> Update Firefox to the latest version by going to Help Menu -> About Firefox -> click Check for Updates
After you have updated your Firefox, check and tell if its working now.
I tried this but it came back saying there are no updates available and that Firefox will check for updates periodically.
Download & Install the latest Firefox version

Check and tell if it resolves the problem.
Looks that you are on a pop-up window.
If you can't open a new window then try to clear the cache and the file localstore.rdf.
