15.0 beta, Unable to navigate to any page, open new tabs, check/disable addons and some issues closing program.
I have two profiles for firefox, via the profile switcher. One for web development, and one for general web browsing.
My development profile seems to be working fine. But my web use profile is totally locked down, I would assume its the symptom of a faulty addon or something, but I wasnt prompted to disable any after the update, and in fact cannot do that because the addons manager is one of the unresponsive features. Now, when I say unresponsive, I mean I click and nothing at all happens, its not that the program is freezing. This is the same behavior I get when trying to navigate to any page using the navigation bar (manually typing in a URL) or my bookmarks or when trying to open a new tab. It also happens if I go into my tab groups and close all open tabs, then try to close firefox.

I figured out how to disable all of the addons and start firefox in safemode and start tracking down the fault, and have narrowed the problem down to a single addon.
Working on the presumption that "profile switcher" sandboxes profiles enough that one profile's addons wont conflict with another's (even when Profile Switcher itself is disabled!), because I didnt touch the development profile.
I am pretty sure that the problem is with an addon "tab utilities 1.1.4". Firefox seems to be working normally when it is disabled and everything else is enabled, and is fatally unusable when only this addon is enabled (again presuming that the conflict can not be with addons enabled in my other profile).
The reviews for this addon seem to show that it has been loosing functionality since ff13, and my guess is it is not being maintained. I loved it, but would suggest you disable it if you choose to move to ff15.0.
