I have a separate user account on my Mac which will no longer run Firefox. I click on the icon in the doc and it bounces once and stops. The Firefox menu does not show up in the menu bar, so I can't do anything with that.

I have tried restarting my computer and entering the user account in question, but it does the same thing. I don't know if I should uninstall and reinstall or what. It works perfectly in my main user account.

I uninstalled and reinstalled in my separate user account and I was able to successfully run Firefox. I have not tried my main user account just yet. If that doesn't work, I'll come back here.
