Steps to reproduce:

go to "Earlybird" menu to see version and if an update is available 

earlybird 38.0a2.en-US.mac 26 Feb 2015 
Mac Os 10.10.2


Actual results:

Normally, I go to "Earlybird" menu and there is an item called "about" where I can see EB version and eventually be prompted to update if there is an update evailable.
Now I only get the option to quit.
No way I can get info on version and, eventually, offered an update

Disabling addons (safe mode) does not solve the issue

reverting to TB beta 36.0 fixes this
I installed Earlybird 38.0a2 (2015-02-27) on an OSX Yosemite system, and could not reproduce this bug.
Last week I also saw this problem some days on Nightly builds. There were also lots of mozitest fails and OS X related backouts on TreeHerder. However it was solved somehow.

I haven't been building lastly the v38 when it was on Nightly, so I didn't see it then.
nomis101, can you be sure to test this when you test 38 beta?
tried yesterday - cannot find a 38 beta - only 37.0b1 or 39.0a1 or 39.0a2 (30 March).
Tried all of them. 37.0b1 works fine, all the other don't.
They show again same problem.
Reproduced on MacMini/OsX 10.10.2 (UK version) and MacBookAir2011UK OSX 10.10.3beta

> nomis101, can you be sure to test this when you test 38 beta?

I've tested this with 38.0b1 and it works fine for me. 
Build ID: 20150401012718. Tested on Yosemite 10.10.2.
Maybe it only occurs under certain circumstances?
Seen on latest trunk build yesterday. The menu Earlybird (or Daily or Thunderbird, or whatever) is a feature exclusive of the OS X operating system which includes menu items found on other categories in the other suppoerted operating systems. That is the reason I am changing it to OS Integration.

Summary: earlybird 38.0a2.en-US.mac 26 Feb 2015 cannot "get info" to update → App menu is empty, only shows "Quit"
I have the same issue with Thunderbird 38.0.1 on OS X 10.10.3.

I have the following suspicious message in the system log during TB startup:

12.06.15 23:38:40,519 Thunderbird[15266]: GetDYLDEntryPointWithImage(/System/Library/Frameworks/AppKit.framework/Versions/Current/AppKit,_NSCreateAppKitServicesMenu) failed.

This may be of interest because the "ServicesMenu" is normally part of the "Thunderbird" menu on OS X, the one that only shows "Quit".
This is a core issue and Bug 1151345.

We'll need to take the patch for this if bug 1151345 isn't approved for Fx ESR? (it hasn't even been requested yet)
Flags: needinfo?(rkent)
Yes we'll try to get this in the next release.
