When you download files from Internet, Download Status Bar will automatically place progress items in the Download Bar for you. As the name suggest, Download Bar is the bar which is at bottom section of Firefox generally above Add-on Bar. Because Download Status Bar is user friendly and smart enough, Download Bar will only be visible when there is an active download. If there is no download to show, Download Bar hides itself automatically to preserve the web page area for you. And it will show itself again automatically when you start downloading any file from the web.

But if you want to view Download Bar even if there is no download, you can use below keyboard short-cuts:

Windows: CTRL + ALT + D

Mac OS X: SHIFT + ALT + D
