Since the upgrade to FF 5 on OSX 10.6.8 I have no 'Downloads' window and no 'View Source' window.

Firefox appears to function normally except for the 'Downloads' window and 'View Source' window not being accessible. However, when selected they appear as being active in the 'Windows' menu but cannot be seen on screen.

The link was very helpful thank you.

I pasted this into the address bar -
