Like I said, it's case sensitive. I searched for an answer and everyone says to uncheck the match case on the find bar but it's not there. I'm on a mac with OSX 10.9.4 using Firefox 32.0.1.

I figured it out. I had to relaunch with addons disabled. I don't know which extension caused the problem but the change stuck when I re-enabled addons.

Can you bring up the Find bar via Command + F?

If you bring up the Quick Find bar via other ways then you do not see the Match case checkbox.
