I normally keep the "new tab" window open. On starting up firefox. new tab on file menu does not operate. "new window" opens a 2cm. square of the top left corner containing the red, amber & green buttons. Clicking the green button fills the screen. "new tab" then operates from file menu and "new screen" can be deleted.

Hey,

I assume this might be a problem with one of your add-ons. Please tell me all your add-ons by following the steps mentioned here: Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems

Check for problems with the localstore.rdf file.

You can also try to remove the Firefox plist file (org.mozilla.firefox.plist).

Go to "~/Library/Preferences" and remove the plist file for Firefox (org.mozilla.firefox.plist)
