Here's what you do jscher2000. fire up your Apple (iMac, etc), start Firefox, do something with it. Then close Firefox, shut down or restart your Mac and there you have the problem in your Trash bin. and if you're are a Firefox tech. dude then solve the problem. and you won't have to make any more suggestions or guesses.

Hi username4, I use Windows, so I can't follow your instructions to me.

My suggestion to someone who wants to move this forward is to file a bug report on Bugzilla and see whether the developers can help you.

Meanwhile, perhaps other Mac users will discover and contribute to this thread or the one on Mozillazine.
