Computer type: Mac BookPro Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 I use both the Mac Safari & Firefox browsers for blogging. Since yesterday when I downloaded the Mozilla Firefox upgrade I am unable to exit Firefox at all (no button or tab to select an exit to return to desktop and Safire). To exit Firefox I must press the manual quit button to restart the computer. I need a Firefox exit link out to reenter the Safire browser and desktop without shutting down the computer.

I use Windows, so I'm not sure, but could you check for this:

If you click the "3-bar" menu button on the main toolbar, when the panel opens, there should be an on/off button on the lower right corner of the menu to exit Firefox. Is that there on Mac?

You should see the Firefox menu bar on Mac as that is controlled by the Mac OS and have Firefox > Quit.

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)
