I can't adjust the window size for Firefox 20 on OSX after updating
After updating to the latest version of FF, I can no longer adjust the window size. I've tried clicking and dragging from all four corners of the window but it stays the same size. Before the update I could adjust the window size. I've tried rooting around in the about:config settings but haven't been able to find anything that would determine the window size being locked to certain dimensions. I have also reset firefox to it's default settings and this does not solve the issue.

Try disabling Firefox's use of hardware graphics acceleration.
You usually need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced
On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If you restart Firefox, is the issue resolved?

That did it, thanks a bunch!
this didn't work for me. size of text way to large. found it easier to delete and reinstall firefox. now all is good. backed up my bookmarks first and firefox automatically added them.
