If you see only header of the ribbon like that:

Click on the arrow on the right. You should see all the options:

This specifically applies to MVC implementations and could apply to Webforms as well. Please make sure your layout razor cshtml file has valid HTML markup skeleton in place. Please make sure at the very minimum your page is formatted like this:

@using Sitecore.MVC

<html>
    <body>
         @Html.Sitecore().Etc...
         etc...
    </body>
</html>

This should eliminate the big chunk of JSON on top and enable all page editor UI elements.
