I'm on Mac OS 10.10.1 and Firefox just updated to 34.0.5 this morning. I normally keep two windows open with multiple tabs in each - one for work and one for personal. I used to switch between them by clicking "Window" on the menu and selecting which one I want to view. Since the update, the only options under Window are Zoom and Minimize. I'm on a Macbook air, so tiling them minimizes what little screen area I have and I'm not aware of shortcuts to switch between windows (although, I'm sure one probably exists). But anyway, this seems like a bug.

Thanks!

Hi misschatter,

Very odd. There is bug report for this problem, so it will hopefully be resolved soon: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1108802

In the meantime, until it's fixed you might find Firefox's tab groups a useful alternative: Use Tab Groups to organize a lot of tabs

Alternatively, you might be able to switch between Firefox windows by right-clicking the Firefox icon on your dock, or by prssing Cmd+` on your keyboard. (Cmd is the key that has a ⌘ symbol)

Hope this helps,


Jayelbe
