On Mac, look for:

Firefox > Preferences

In the Knowledge base here, in the right column, there is an OS and version selector to tailor articles to your OS and version.

Firefox settings, preferences and other options

Thanks for the reply, but I didn't understand it. As you can tell, I am not very good with computer jargon. So, I have to be walked through every step.

Still, I think you were not trying to answer my Tools/option question so much as tell me how to do something else. On this, I could be incorrect.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences_in_Windows,_Linux,_and_Mac

Windows = Tools->Options

Linux = Edit->Preferences
Mac OSX = Firefox->Preferences (Application name->Preferences)

Which preferences (options) do you want to change?

Do you have any problems that require making changes?
