Firefox 4.0b6 Macbook External Monitor Issue and Dirty Fix
I have been using firefox 4 beta on my macbook pro for a while, now there is a bug that is really annoying. To create the bug:
- Connect the macbook pro with an external monitor.
- Open firefox and move it to the external monitor.
- Close firefox entirely.
- Disconnect the external monitor.
- Open firefox.
Now firefox window will not show no matter what.
How to make it show again?
Option 1
Connect the external monitor back.
Option 2
- “opt + click” to open firefox in safe mode.
- Tick the “Reset toolbars and controls” check box and click “continue in safe mode”
- Close firefox and open it normally.
Of course your toolbars and controls are reset to the default, at least you can now open firefox without an external monitor.
