Hi

From the crash reports I see you use a very old version of Firefox. It's more than one year old. You should upgrade and see if the problem is solved.

You can find latest downloads here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ If you can't use update within Firefox (Check the about Firefox in help menu).


Edit: just noticed you that you have old OSX, so you can't update Firefox. :( (only OSX 10.6 – 10.9 can have the latest Firefox)

Edit2: Found this: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/751524 Only a clue but do you have file sharing not disabled?

Could you try making a new profile and see if that helps, if so you can transfer files from the old to the new one.

See the linked articles below.
