I do not have Spell Checking tab in my Edit tab. Firefox will underline a misspelled word but I can not access the spell check.

This happened

Not sure how often

The spell checker works though the context menu. See How do I use the Firefox spell checker?

I tried doing the following: When spell-checking is enabled, you can easily correct misspelled words. To correct the misspelled word, right-clickhold down the Ctrl key while you click on it and select one of the suggested words at the top of the menu.

Believe this is for a PC. I have a MacBook Pro laptop. What do I do.

I have never used a Mac or even seen one up close in recent years, but isn't the Ctrl key labeled as Cmd on Mac's?


Also, I didn't think that click-hold preference was enabled as default in Firefox. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Ui.click_hold_context_menus

Mac has both a control key and a command key. To access a context menu on Mac, hold down the control key as you click on something
