    Google bookmarks and toolbar
    I signed up for Google toolbar, which lets me carry my bookmarks list to whatever computer I am using, which I find very useful. However, I can't figure out how to open a Google toolbar on another computer. I have it open on my laptop, and there is a Google toolbar under the Internet Explorer toolbar. It has a star that I can click and pull down my bookmarks list. However, at work, someone deleted the bar somehow and I don't know how to get it back. I'm currently circumventing the problem by keeping a tab open where I am signed onto iGoogle. Of course I keep accidentally closing the tab or going to a different website within the tab.

    I sure hope this makes sense to someone and that he/she can help me out here.

    The easiest way to get to those bookmarks is to set up your own Google Personalized Homepage. iGoogle (Google Mail address needed)
    From there you can add a Bookmarks module where you can access all your saved bookmarks. You can even add a Firefox extension to quickly save a page to your Google Bookmarks.

    I have a Google homepage, which is what I am using at work. BUT, I did have a "toolbar", (at the top of the window, with various icons etc) that had a star icon I could press for my Google favorites. I am using my Google homepage to access my favorites, but I prefer the icons.
    I *had* the toolbar, but now it's gone and I don't know how to get it back.

    Try right-clicking on the toolbar area, it should show you all the available toolbars; if you see the Goolge toolbar then put a checkmark there and it will appear. If it does not appear there then it is not installed and you will have to re-install it: Google Toolbar
