Firefox shut down and now it will not open - just the 'embarrasing' msg appears and the little color wheel just spins. I've unchecked the tabs and even trashed Firefox and re-downloaded but still the same thing. Have tried now about 10x

FF will not open - have trashed and reinstalled but to no avail. Firefox shut down and now it will not open - just the 'embarrasing' msg appears and the little color wheel just spins. I've unchecked the tabs and even trashed Firefox and re-downloaded but still the same thing. Have tried now about 10x - so I can't use Firefox until I can get it to open. Thanks.
