I've recently updated to FF 29. Now when I open a tab, once it's opened, no other addresses can be entered into the URL, if I want to go to a different page, I have to open a whole new tab. Also, the refresh icon (the little round arrow thing on the right hand side of the URL) no longer works.

It's as if, once a tab is opened and a website page has loaded, nothing else can be done but to close the page or use the back arrow. I'm so glad I only updated my work computer, I'm NOT updating FF on my home computer.

I've never seen such an ugly GUI either, that's one of the reasons I always used FF, it's much more attractive than IE. Now it's IE ugly.

grrr

The issue is likely caused by one of your add-ons. Restart Firefox with Add-ons Disabled to check if that's the case.

If the problem goes away in Safe Mode, you can either try to determine which add-on is to blame, or you can Reset Firefox and get rid of them all.

As for Firefox's appearance, you can install the Classic Theme Restorer add-on.

Now that I know that it's the theme that's causing the problem, how do I fix it so that Firefox will work with my theme? The default is hideous, and I've been using the theme I have, "Pink Bee," for several years with no issues. Now this version of Fire Fox doesn't work with this theme.

Contact the Pink Bee writer, and tell them there is a problem. Until it is solved, you should not use it.

You might also try this; Press the <Alt Key> to bring up the tool bar. Then Tools > Options > Advanced > General. Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.

The latest reviewed version is 2.9.2. If you're using an older one, right-click the theme in the Add-ons Manager and choose Find Updates.

If that's the version you're currently using, try the latest unreviewed version.
