I can no longer minimize Firefox
I am using a MAC laptop with version 10.10.2 Yosemite. When I open Firefox I only get the red and green buttons in the upper left hand corner. I no longer have the center yellow button to minimize the window. Where did it go and more importantly, how do I get it back?

Could it be that you are in full screen mode (press Command+Shift+F to toggle)?
Try to rename (or delete) the xulstore.json file in the Firefox profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
- Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)

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)
I am not in full screen, only the yellow button is missing. I do not understand the instructions given above.......
