When I am using Firefox 4 my Dock and the top of screen meu bar disappear (similar to a Hide) but will reappear when I click my mouse on the desktop. It really annoying! I can't minimize the Firefox window into the Dock for later use at all! Any way that I can make this stop?
MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.7)
Just to help to anyone if it is a still issue.
The only way to sort it out without remove anything from your mac is this way:
1.In Finder right click on the Firefox app and select “Show Package Contents”
2. navigate to Contents and open “Info.plist” in TextEdit.
3. In this file, near the top, there should be a piece of text that says <dict>, underneath this add the following making sure all of the text is present.
<key>LSUIPresentationMode</key>
<integer>0</integer>
4. save that file
5. restart firefox
6. happy browsing again
cheers
