I am not in full screen mode, but the pull down menues (file, edit, etc.) do not appear unless I click out of firefox. I cannot access my bookmarks pull down menu. How do I restore it?

Possibly something has gone wrong, or you may just have inadvertently changed the settings.

In most systems there is a Firefox button instead of a long menu toolbar.

You will also have options to display your bookmarks and navigation toolbars.

Try to remove the Firefox plist file (org.mozilla.firefox.plist).

Go to "~/Library/Preferences" and remove the plist file for Firefox (org.mozilla.firefox.plist)

Try to repair the disk permissions:

You can check for problems with the localstore.rdf file.

On Mac you can use command+Shift+F to toggle full screen mode.
