I had similar problem and solve it this way :
- Terminal started.
- File menu->Open Data Folder
- Double click on "Config" to open the folder.
- Close the MT5 terminal.
- Delete the file Terminal.ini
- Restart your Terminal, problem should be fixed (you could have to set your toolbars/windows as you like the first time).

I do not have Mac computer so I can not practically help in this situation.
But it works for my Windows computer all the time.

You can try to switch something which does not work (Market Watch size? Toolbox size? Navigator?) to be off, and after than -
"File menu->Open Data Folder", after that - close Metatrader and find this Terminal.ini file
(may be ... you have two *.ini files in different directories?) and delete it.
After that - open Metatrader and switch everything to be on (Market Watch or Toolbox size or something which did not work for example).
You can try to switch Toolbox to be OFF, and after that - switch it back to be ON -
The other way to do it is the following:
I mean: move this toolbox window by mouse to the toolbox place.
- Before deleting anything you should have made a backup first, so you could restore in case of a failure, or for restoring only a few needed files (for example, source code files or chart templates).
- Log on again with your MQL5 Community account in MetaTrader to have access to Market purchases or MetaQuotes Virtual hosting.
- Reconnect to trading accounts with the credentials that were provided by your broker. Hopefully you took note of those and saved them somewhere.
