What version of Emacs are you using? If anything after 20.0, use the
"Customize" features to do it rather than edit your .emacs.

It may be under the "Help" menu, or the "Options" menu. Find the
"Customize" menu, then "Specific Option" and enter
global-font-lock-mode when asked.

If it is listed as "off", click on "Toggle" then on the "State" button
and select "Save for future sessions."
