Running Firefox for OS X version 3.6.3

Problem:
After about 20 minutes of use, the yellow minimize window button turns grey, and is not available.

When I quit the browser and relaunch it, the yellow middle button is back.

Anyone experience this? And what did you do to fix it?

Thanks
 
Yeah, it happens to mine too, though I'm not sure exactly what triggers it. Using the full-screen mode––then exiting––causes it to occur, and it's window specific so relaunching isn't necessary if you CMD+N.

Good point!

It does occur after using it full screen. I hadn't thought about that till you mentioned it. Thanks for the tip about CMD+N, something I normally do, but hadn't tried when I encountered this issue.

Cheers... :)
