Using the latest version of Aurora on latest version of Mac OSX Mountain Lion. Haven't had any problems to date. All of a sudden this morning, Aurora and Firefox both crash on start up, never opens. Please see below crash report from Apple, maybe this is an Apple problem?

We're sorry to hear that your Firefox seems to be crashing. Please perform the following steps to give us a crash report ID that helps us find out more about the cause of the crash.

  1. Enter about:crashes in the Firefox location bar (that's where you enter your website names) and press Enter. You should now see a list of submitted crash reports.
  2. Copy the most recent 5 report IDs that you see in the crash report window and paste them into your forum response.

Thanks in advance for your help!

More information and further troubleshooting steps can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox crashes (closing or quitting unexpectedly) article.
